"Apple Watch Series 8: Reasons to Buy, Deals to Save"

With a ban on Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 in the US, considering the benefits of purchasing an Apple Watch Series 8 or earlier is a good idea. The new features in Series 9, such as on-device Siri, double tap gesture control, and a brighter screen, may not be compelling enough to justify the upgrade. The major features of the Apple Watch, including ECG and blood oxygen apps, high/low heart rate notifications, and water resistance, are available in Series 8. Additionally, opting for an older model allows for more choices in terms of finishes and can save up to 30% or more in price.

"Apple Watch Series 8 vs. Series 9: Which Upgrade is Worth It?"

The Apple Watch Series 9 is a minor upgrade over the Series 8, with the S9 chip, Double Tap gesture, and Precision Finding for iPhone 15 models being the most significant changes. Most Series 8 users may not find it necessary to upgrade, but those coming from older models or who heavily use a HomePod, plan to buy an iPhone 15, need more storage, or prefer one-handed use with the Double Tap gesture may consider the Series 9. For those looking for an upgrade, a discounted Series 8 remains a solid option.
