Even though the Apple Watch Series 9 is almost certainly right around the corner, bargain hunters may want to consider buying the Apple Watch Series 8 now that it's marked down by a cool 90 bucks on Amazon.
painting this next generation a picture of a minor upgrade and refresh, it might not be such a bad idea to pick up the Series 8 today.
As long as you don't need standalone cellular connectivity on your wrist, you're looking at saving a cool 90 bucks on your preferred Series 8 size and one of a few different color options without an obligatory Prime subscription. As far as we can tell, this is the largest discount ever offered by a major retailer like Amazon on a GPS-only Apple Watch Series 8 outside of special members-only events like last month's Prime Day festival. Folks with small wrists will shave the aforementioned $90 off the $399 list price of a non-LTE-enabled unit in a 41mm size, while a 45mm variant can currently be had for 90 bucks under its $429 MSRP.
The Apple Watch Series 8, of course, is not perfect or revolutionary in any way, still suffering in the battery life department while also failing to impress with its half-baked temperature sensor. But all the other sensors and health monitoring tools are second to none in the current smartwatch landscape, and the intersection of the functionality and style can only be described as flawless... at least until the Series 9 comes out in a few weeks to bring further refinement to the table.

The new Apple Watches might feature 3D-printed parts.A new Bloomberg report says Apple is tinkering with 3D printing for the stainless steel version of the Apple Watch Series 9. The main goal is to purportedly streamline production, and if things go well, Apple may consider using 3D printing for its other products. The report claims that Apple’s been secretly developing this tech for three years, but it’s not a given that the first Series 9 shipments will actually feature the tech. Earlier in June, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo noted that some of the Ultra 2’s titanium parts would also be manufactured via 3D printing. (Bloomberg says this won’t happen until 2024, however.) Ultimately this would be a small number of Apple Watches sold. Most people opt for the less expensive aluminum models, with stainless steel making up roughly 10 percent of total units.
