I’d say owners of the Series 5 and later who aren’t planning on getting the Ultra can upgrade to watchOS 9 when it comes out and hang on for at least another year. If you really *need* that low-power extended battery life, then I suppose you’ll have to look at the Series 8, but otherwise the 8 is just a modest bump from the 7 (unless you want/need the ovulation estimate or have another reason to need a temperature sensor). People who have the Series 7 (like myself) will probably not feel much impetus to upgrade, as most of the features they talked about for the Series 8 (other than the temp sensor) are all included in watchOS 9, which we’ll be able to run. I’m certainly not the market for that latter model, but I know people who will be quite excited - especially for Scuba divers, that price looks very attractive indeed methinks. It’s nice to see that the price didn’t go up for the Series 8, and the Ultra (not “Pro,” pundits - wrong again!) was priced much lower than the rumourmongers would have had it. Faster is generally better unless it sacrifices something else (like battery life), which this doesn’t seem to do.Īs for the article and overall comparison, this is likely to be most useful for people with an Apple Watch 5 or earlier, as users tend not to upgrade models each year. Why on Earth do I need a "20% faster Apple Watch? Mine keeps perfect time, and anything else is limited by the input device: My clumsy fingers!Īssuming you were semi-serious despite the joking remarks, more speed is handy in: detecting falls or crashes, pulling up maps or workouts or other apps you might use.
