Apple has launched its 2025 Black Unity Collection, a tribute to Black culture, history, and community. The lineup includes a special-edition Apple Watch Black Unity Sport Loop, a Unity Rhythm watch face, and exclusive wallpapers for iPhone and iPad. Each piece is crafted to symbolize and celebrate the vibrant spirit of the Black community.

A Tribute in Design: The Black Unity Sport Loop

The Black Unity Sport Loop is a standout addition to this year’s collection. Inspired by the Pan-African flag, the band incorporates black, red, green, and hints of yellow. The woven nylon construction combines raised and recessed loops, creating a lenticular design that shifts colors with movement. This soft, lightweight, and adjustable band is as functional as it is meaningful.

The band is priced at ₹4,500 and is available for order online starting today. It will hit Apple Stores later this week. It fits Apple Watch Series 4 and later models, the SE lineup, and the 46mm option is exclusively compatible with the Apple Watch Ultra.

A Dynamic Watch Face: Unity Rhythm

Apple’s Unity Rhythm watch face brings movement and meaning to your wrist. Using red, green, and yellow threads, the animated numerals change dynamically, responding to the watch’s gyroscope. The experience is further enhanced by rhythmic chimes that mark every hour and half-hour, echoing the collection’s theme of rhythm and unity.

The Unity Rhythm watch face will be available in an upcoming software update. Compatibility extends to Apple Watch Series 6 or later, paired with iPhone Xs or newer models.

Unity Wallpapers for iPhone and iPad

Apple’s Unity Rhythm wallpapers bring a creative touch to iPhone and iPad. These designs feature the word “Unity” in custom lettering, with orientation shifts depending on the device’s lock or unlock state.

Available soon through a software update, these wallpapers will support iPhone Xs and later models, along with various iPads, including the latest iPad Pro and earlier compatible models.
