@BM24DK Год назад

In my opinion the S4(bezel reduced), S5(Always-on-display) and S7(bezel reduced) were the most significant upgrades.

@mickeygarcia2331_ Год назад

Yes! And the S7 has all of those things much cheaper now.

@@emilsecker7881 Don't think so. My Series 4 never had any performance issues (unlike my iPhone 11 Pro) and the Series 4 even gets the update to watchOS 9.

@xtaylorxg Год назад

Upgrading from a 5 to 8 vice ultra for sleek design and definite better battery life (than the 5). I got this over the 7 for the additional features since they are so similar and I can’t find the color I want refurbished lol. Unless you love the newest tech, you don’t need to upgrade from the 7. Also worth noting that as a woman I find the ultra really masculine due to the size, but if I was an ultra athlete I wouldn’t care as much lol.

@ThatWellnessGuy Год назад

Great comparison video with nice explanations of whether or not to upgrade based on other models! I’m upgrading from a 4 to the Ultra, but I really wish that they offered a dark titanium and didn’t include orange on the buttons so that it’s a little more discreet. I’ll have to keep my SS Series 4 to wear to business and formal events because I think it’ll definitely clash with a suit or dress shirt.

@pauletterisher7624 Год назад

A really coherent comparison of the Apple watch models - without an agenda. Still undecided about upgrading from 5 to 7 given the apps I use. Thank you!

@JuustJayden Год назад

Thank you for being the only one to mention whether or not to upgrade from original SE. I got the Apple 7 for a good deal new but the blue just doesn't seem versatile enough for me and all the used ones in my area for Midnight/Starlight were 45mm and asking for price of new S8. Hence, I got myself the S8 in Starlight new and sold the SE to cover some of the cost. I had to get 41mm to be proportionate.

@adumbledoor394 Год назад

I am looking for my very first Apple Watch and I simply can't decide between the series 7 and 8. The series 7 is cheaper but the series 8 might be a bit more future proof and I can wait longer for a potential upgrade. It's quite hard to decide for me. No idea what to choose, and the more I inform myself, the harder it seems to get to decide.

I’m happy yo have both in different sizes!

@yemanator Год назад

Another factor to consider is your current watch’s battery health, which you can check in settings. If you are noticing that your watch isn’t lasting a full day anymore, it could be time to buy a new one since - over time - the effective full charge capacity of the battery goes down over time and use.

I upgraded to the series 7 from the series 3 a couple months ago, and I haven’t regretted it once. I’ll probably use this watch until it dies on me just like I did with my series 3.

@accidentman101 Год назад

@@zmanqx4 Hmm. It’s definitely hard to say in that situation then. If it’s for your wife, there’s definitely benefits to both. The series 8 like you already mentioned has the cycle tracking. The fast charging is nice too. But I’ll be honest, I haven’t even used the fast charger I got with my series 7 once. It only takes like 30-45mins to charge to watch to near full. I usually throw mine on the charger right after I wake up, and put it back on when I’m heading to work and it’s almost always fully charged. If the extra money the series 8 costs compared to the SE2 doesn’t matter to you, I’d definitely say get the series 8. But the SE2 is a very solid device, and I’d highly recommend that one too. Hope this helps

@doggiehowzer Год назад

I skipped the first release and only went to Series 2 stainless steel. Worked well and when I upgraded to the Series 5 titanium, i passed the S2 to a relative. Wasn’t expecting to upgrade again but the OLED screen failed 4 months ago. It went completely bright and I couldn’t see anything else on the display. Eventually burnt itself out. So now I’ve ordered the Ultra. I’m not into the extreme sports side. But I do walk two dogs and they’ve dragged my watch across guard rails and seriously scratched the glass on the titanium S5. I’m also looking to do more sleep tracking which I hope will work better with the longer battery life.
