IPHONE 6 VS 8 BRIGHTER SCREEN UPDATE
This year’s update is pretty chock-full of new features, and there’s a lot to like. WatchOS 9 brings a lot of great new features in health, sleep and battery lifeĪ lot of the new features on the Series 8 are thanks to watchOS 9, the latest version of the Apple Watch’s software. Until that happens, the Series 8’s design is perfectly fine. Would it be nice to see a design that takes on more drastic changes? Sure, but it’s not necessary until Apple has a breakthrough in smartwatch design that it can’t help but ship. The screen is beautiful to look at, it gets up to 1,000 nits bright and is great outdoors, the form factor is slim and doesn’t get in the way and its weight makes it easy to forget about when working out. It’s a well-rounded formula that doesn’t have anything inherently wrong with it. It’s not as durable as the new Apple Watch Ultra, but it’s still enough for everyday use. You also get the same level of durability as the Series 7 with a crack-resistant screen, IP6X dust resistance and WR50 water resistance (meaning it can survive at up to 50 meters underwater). The screens are also the same, nearly reaching the edges of each different Series 8 model with rounded sides. You also have a few stainless steel options, a ton of bands to pick from and an optional upgrade to a watch with cellular so you can leave your iPhone at home.
They even ship in the same three colors: Midnight, Starlight and silver. The Series 8 still comes in 41mm and 45mm case sizes, which means all of your old bands will work with whichever model they’re designed for. Some may be disappointed by how similar the Apple Watch Series 8 looks and feels to the Series 7, but Apple has nearly perfected its formula for a smartwatch, and there’s no need to fix something that isn’t broken.
