Just a day after the Apple Watch became available in retails stores, details about the next generation smartwatch have emerged, reports 9to5Mac.Sources tell the site that Apple is currently planning to integrate a FaceTime video camera into the top bezel of the Apple Watch 2, letting users make and receive FaceTime calls on their wrist. Notably, watchOS 2.0 will allow first generation customers to answer FaceTime audio calls from the Apple Watch and route video calls to their iPhone.
Another improvement planned for the Apple Watch, is the ability for it to operate more independently of the iPhone. One big improvement will be a new and 'more dynamic' wireless chipset. An iPhone will likely still be needed for large data transfers such as software update and synchronization of media. However, regular functions such as messages, email, and weather will operate independent of the iPhone. In addition, the new Wi-Fi chip will enable a Find My Watch feature that works using Wi-Fi router triangulation.
