Rumors about the much-anticipated Garmin Descent Mk3 smartwatch have been circulating for some time. A recent leak on the Garmin Support Mexico site has shed more light on the potential release. The upcoming launch is expected to feature not one, but four different models: the Descent Mk3, Descent Mk3i, Descent Mk3S, and Descent Mk3Si.
New Image Teases Unveiling Event:
Gadgets & Wearables has recently shared a new image hinting at a forthcoming Garmin event scheduled for November 14. The event teaser specifically mentions the Descent Mk3i, described as a “watch-style dive computer.” According to the leaked details, the Mk3i is rumored to boast an AMOLED display, a notable upgrade from the previous MiP display found in the Mk2 series. Additionally, an integrated LED flashlight is expected to aid visibility in dimly lit environments. The device is anticipated to offer multiple dive modes and could potentially integrate the previously discussed SubWave sonar technology.
SubWave Communication and Potential Limitations:
The SubWave feature, allowing divers to communicate via pre-set messages, has been a highlight of the Descent series. While the technology is not entirely new to Garmin’s smartwatch lineup, it has garnered considerable attention for enhancing underwater communication. However, it remains uncertain whether the complete SubWave feature will be fully available at the time of the Mk3i’s launch. Verification of the latest leaked information is still pending, as the source of the event preview remains undisclosed, and Garmin has refrained from confirming or refuting the speculations.
Possible Release Date and Event Rumors:
Speculations are rife about an imminent Garmin event slated for November 14, where the much-anticipated Descent Mk3 smartwatch series might be unveiled. Leaks suggest a lineup of four distinct models, with the Descent Mk3i in the spotlight. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development!
