Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4: 4GB RAM confirmed in Xcode
MacRumors confirms Series 12 and Ultra 4 list 4GB of RAM in Xcode 27 — double Series 11 / Ultra 3 — while U.S. starting prices stay $399 / $799.
MacRumors reports that Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 show 4GB of RAM in Xcode 27 device definitions — double the 2GB on Series 11 and Ultra 3.
