Apple Watch Series 8: Worth Considering in 2024?
The Apple Watch Series 8 made its debut back in September 2022 and was succeeded by the Apple Watch Series 9. The Apple Watch Series 9 was an incremental upgrade over its predecessor. The Apple Watch Series 9 comes with an upgraded S9 chip, a 2000 nits-display, and 64GB of internal storage. Whereas, the Series 8 packs an S8 chip, a 1000 nits-display, and 32GB internal storage.
Apple Watch Series 8 also lacks the Double-Tap gesture support, which Apple introduced with the Series 9. Except for these differences, the Watch Series 8 and Series 9 are almost identical.
The Apple Watch Series 9 is available for Rs 32,999 on Flipkart, which is Rs 8,000 more than the Series 8’s price. If you’re low on budget and the mere differences between the two watches don’t matter, the Apple Watch Series 8 could be an excellent choice.
