Personally I recently bought the series 9 version, and I’m considering returning it and getting the series 8 instead. From what I’ve read there isn’t much difference between the two, and with this sale I’d save $80 by downgrading.
I’m curious about the Apple watch, but reading Macworld it says I need an Iphone to set up the watch and maximize its usability. I’ve got an Iphone 6 that’s out of OS support and really I’m an android guy. Should I bother?
I probably would not, but Walmart has an extended return policy until Jan 31 if you do.
Without an iphone its a big no given how closed apple ecosystem is.
