New reports are suggesting that Apple might be planning multiple wearables to launch next month at its iPhone six unveiling event. One of these will likely be the iWatch and in true Apple fashion, we can expect it to launch at twice the price of its competitors- right now the rumored price is $400, while offerings from the likes of Samsung and LG sit at around $200.
Unidentified sources have spoken to Recode, stating that there won't just be one iWatch but rather, multiple models with different price points. It isn't clear whether or not the range will start at $400 and work its way up but it is possible that we will see models with different screen sizes and specifications.
Note: This is a concept design and won't be representative of the final product.
Back in June, the Wall Street Journal reported that Apple may be aiming to hit multiple price points by offering different models with varying screen sized, which coincides with these new reports.
Recode notes that Apple hasn't settled on a definite price yet so everything is still subject to change. Separate rumors are suggesting that while Apple may show off the iWatch next month, it might not actually release until next year.

KitGuru Says: While we've seen a lot of leaked images of the iPhone 6, we haven't had a good look at the iWatch yet. What would you guys like to see in the iWatch?
While it will be a good addon to the Apple Ecosystem, at that price point it’s stupid money.
Most people get phones on contracts as paying full up front is too much
$400 is between £200 and £300, so expect it to be priced at £300 here in the UK, which is a lot of money up front.
well most of the time apple makes the price even higher for non americans
an better competitor would be samsung or lg or motorola for way less and for better hardware (software is still in development just like apple so dont expect anything big)
