Do you remember a few weeks ago we told you about a “mysterious” port on one side of Apple Watch? At first it was said that that port was used by the company personnel to perform diagnostic tests and, therefore, not be in the final version that will reach customers. However, it seems that the units displayed on the Apple Store continue to have that port, so certainly the likelihood that the final version is significantly increased.

The port is located in one of the side notches Apple Watch where we insert one end of the belt. Its shape is somewhat peculiar, at first it was said that was a Lightning port, but these images clearly show otherwise. It is a circular port 6 pins that does not correspond to anything we’ve seen so far.

The Apple Store employees have revealed some curious who have asked for them that do not have any training on how to use those ports or what their function, so the theory that are used to perform diagnostic tests loses strength . It’s also funny how some test units like the one received by journalist John Gruber had the blocked port so that it is possible that this unit is finally reaching consumers.

Smart belt is a possibility that it is possible for the mysterious port Apple Watch

As was noted at the time, smart or smartstraps belts is a possibility that it is possible, maybe not in this first generation, but in future iterations of Apple smart watch. Other companies like Pebble already committed to this interesting concept of accessories, a collection of 1 million dollars to fund the best proposals.

As we read in Cultofmac, yet know what will be done end of this mysterious port, but knowing Apple and its obsession with leave nothing in their products than the purely essential, we are confident that their presence in the Apple Watch is not trivial .
