New Product Red Apple Watch Sport band retail packaging leaked in photo

With only a few hours left for Apple’s ‘Hey Siri’ event to start, a picture of a (PRODUCT) RED sport band for the Apple Watch has made its way to Twitter.

A new Product Red Apple Watch Sport band retail package was the focus of a somewhat blurry photo, but it definitely looks like the real deal. Of course, we’ve seen this band before, so it’s not a huge surprise that we’re seeing retail box photos so close to Apple’s event. What could this mean for the rest of the rumored Apple Watch-centric releases at the event?

Some Apple Stores have apparently already received the band in stock, so it is possible that the band will go up for sale immediately after the event is over.

Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, the fourth generation Apple TV, iPad Pro, and more at its event today.

With the appearance of the Product Red Sport band as shown in the shot above, it says that the Apple Watch will get more than just a passing mention on stage today. I’d say that the likelihood has increased for both the new Sport bands and the new metallic body colors.
