Rumor: The Apple Watch is coming to physical stores soon

Despite having launched the Apple Watch, Apple hasn’t actually been selling its smartwatch in physical retail stores. If you want to get your hands on one of the devices, you’ll need to do so online. However, that might change in the near future, if rumors are to be believed, as Apple is expected to announce the release date for the Apple Watch in physical stores at WWDC. 

As probably most of you are aware of, since its launch, the Apple Watch hasn’t been available in the company’s retail stores (only online). This can be attributed to both high demand and the famous yield problems Apple and its suppliers have been struggling with. However, it looks like the situation is about to change. If a couple of days ago word surfaced that Apple is making preparations for a June retail launch of its first smartwatch, sources “familiar with the matter” are claiming that the official announcement will be made during or right after WWDC (Monday, June 8th). However, the report claims that the supply issues haven’t been entirely dealt with and that certain restrictions will be put in place. What those restrictions are we can only guess at the moment, but stay tuned in case new info surfaces.
