After smartphones, smartwatches might be the next big thing, and many big companies are working on their own smartwatches, and speaking of which, today we have some rumors regarding Apple's smartwatch.

According to the Chinese website C Technology, Apple could release its smart timepiece in October, along with its new iPhone. According to the rumors, Apple is testing two iWatch prototypes in order to decide what screen size would be the best for the final design. Additional rumors state that iWach will come with 100mAh battery, and it will support wireless charging up to 100m distance. On the other hand, there's also problem with battery life, and according to the rumors, iWach could last about one or two days, which might not be enough for most users.

These are just rumors, but if they turn out to be true, Apple has a lot to do in order to optimize battery life before the official launch.
