Apple Watch Series 8 Deals: Save on Earlier Models While They’re Still Around [CNET]
The 2022 Apple Watch has all the essential features covered, including workout- and sleep-tracking, heart-rate monitoring, on-wrist notifications and an always-on display. It was the first Apple Watch to come with a temperature sensor, which can be used for ovulation tracking, and it has neat features like car-crash detection so emergency services and contacts can be notified in the event of an accident. Although it’s not as rugged as the Apple Watch Ultra or Apple Watch Ultra 2, the Series 8 is still crack-resistant, IP6X-rated dust-resistant and swim-proof with WR50 water resistance.
The Apple Watch Series 8 retails at $399 for the GPS-only model, with the GPS and cellular version going for $499 and up. With the Series 9 now the newest model, the Series 8 is officially discontinued by Apple, but that means you can snap up a solid deal on one while supplies last at third-party retailers.
