The next-gen smartwatch and a cheaper device that would join the iPhone 6 lineup could be unveiled during the second March launch event by Apple in a row, claim industry insiders.

This year's launch event in March was a first for Apple, but inside sources claim the Cupertino giant plans to hold a similar event next spring. This year, Apple unveiled the 12-inch MacBook, the ResearchKit iPhone framework, and revealed all the details of the Apple Watch as well. In March 2016, the company's smart wearable is expected to get a successor, but the iPhone 6 handsets are also supposed to get a 4-inch, cheaper sibling.

According to industry insiders who spoke to 9to5Mac, the second Apple Watch generation will hit the market in April while the 4-inch iPhone 6c is also expected to show up at the March event. We should also add that, considering that iPhone 5c has a plastic case, it would not be a surprise to see its predecessor use the same materials to keep the costs low. Specs-wise, the handset is expected to fall between iPhone 5s and iPhone 6s. Rumors also claim that iPhone 5c will include the new A9 SoC.

None of these has been confirmed by Apple yet, so we should take them with a grain of salt for the time being. As soon as we hear more about the Apple Watch 2 and iPhone 6c we will get back to the topic, but it will take a while before their official confirmation.
