Abstract: Deciding on a new Apple Watch can be challenging, especially if you're choosing between the $399 Apple Watch Series 8 and the $249 Apple Watch SE. Unless you're an avid scuba diver or rock climber -- or want to look like one -- you're probably not conside...
Comes across as iterative, Battery life needs improvement,
Much like the tiny, innumerable components of a quartz watch, each of which fits seamlessly into the mechanism and plays its own vital role in keeping things ticking, the Apple Watch uses pieces of hardware and software to deliver a solid, all-round exper...
Abstract: One thing we already know is that the Apple Watch Series 8 is a great smartwatch. The company's impressive lineage of iterative updates lends itself to the logical conclusion that you are seeing everywhere: this is another strong entry into the wearable e...

Great display and design, Advanced health and safety features, Solid battery life, Great variety of watch bands (compatible with existing ones)
Minimal new features, Fewer case materials to choose from
Yes, but only if you currently don't have an Apple Watch or if you have a Series 4 or older. While the Apple Watch Series 8 is arguably the best smartwatch on the market, Apple made minimal changes this year. There is almost no reason to upgrade if you ha...

Still the best smart watch for everyday user, Unique use for temperature sensor, Crash detection isn't flashy, but lifesaving, All-day battery life, Lots to love with watchOS 9, Apple Watch Series 8 -
Few reasons to upgrade over Series 7, Series 6, or maybe even the Series 5, Most watchOS 9 features coming to older watches such as low power mode,

Fast performance,Temperature tracking and car-crash detection,WatchOS 9 upgrades are great

Abstract: Let's pretend, for a minute, that you're Apple. You didn't create the smartwatch market, but you currently control more than one-third of it. You're caught up in a yearly refresh cycle (of your own design). It's not easy, but you're used to it. That's how...

The Apple Watch Series 8 expands Apple's reach into the sports and fitness area more than any other watch before it (save the also-announced Apple Watch Ultra, which…was technically announced about 6 minutes after the Series 8). The Series 8 does this not...
The skin temperature sensor, crash detection feature and low power mode make the Apple Watch Series 8 better enough than the Series 7; however, I will say the design and watchOS 9 — neither "exclusive" assets — are what make the experience as great as it...
