The Apple Watch Series 8 is already available with a sweet $50 discount on Amazon. Take advantage of the offer, and you can get Apple’s latest smartwatch for as low as $349.

Apple products are rarely discounted within a month of their release. And this is the first time the Apple Watch Series 8 is seeing a discount after its launch.

Apple Watch Series 8 is a tick upgrade

The Apple Watch Series 8 is a minor upgrade over its predecessor. It looks and feels a lot like the Apple Watch Series 7, with some minor improvements. This includes a brighter display, improved sensors, and a temperature sensor. Thanks to the improved gyroscope and accelerometer, the Apple Watch Series 8 can automatically detect when you are in a car crash.

Unlike a traditional thermometer, you can’t use the temperature sensor on the Apple Watch Series 8 to measure your temperature. Instead, Apple uses it for female-centric health features like cycle tracking related to ovulation.

Sadly, the Apple Watch Series 8 does not last longer than the previous models. Apple still rates its battery life at 18 hours. You can extend this further by using the new low-power mode. But you will have to give up on some features for the longer runtime. As our Apple Watch Series 8 review roundup notes, the best smartwatch is only getting a tick better this year.
