Time to buy a new smartwatch? The calendar reads January, and it’s now 2023, so all signs point to yes. If you’re looking to add a reliable new watch with a wide array of features to your repertoire, there’s a great one on sale right now.
The most recent iteration of the core Apple Watch series, the (Product) RED edition of the Apple Watch Series 8(opens in a new tab), is on sale at Amazon for just $349. This is the 41mm GPS model, and it’s currently discounted by $50 from its usual price of $399. If red isn’t your color, that’s easily fixed with a case for the watch itself and a different watch band.
The Series 8 is our favorite smartwatch for a reason. It packs new features from previous generations, including ECG tracking and a temperature sensor. The new fall detection feature is worth noting, too — it relies on a built-in gyroscope and accelerometer to track potential accidents.
All in all, a very worthy package, especially if you’re looking to upgrade from a previous-gen Apple Watch.
