Why you should secure an Apple Watch Series 9 today

The Apple Watch Series 9 is a solid refinement from the Watch Series 8, especially in features and under the hood improvements. It is much more recommendable at its current cheaper price.

On the exterior, it still features a familiar squarish form factor but with premium touches similar to the recent predecessors. What's new, however, is the significantly brighter touch display that maxes at 2,000 nits or twice from the Watch Series 8. This enables for very legible output in sunny conditions, which is great if you're running or biking as you can tell clearly what's displayed on the screen.

There are also new features added through the Apple S9 SiP (system in package) chip. Primarily, the chip brings faster performance and higher efficiency. At the same time, it introduces Double Tap feature for gesture controls using your fingers. Apple's Siri assistant benefits from the new chip as well, which now supports on-device processing even without an active internet.

Overall, the Watch Series 9 remains a top-class health and fitness tracking wearable. The on-demand ECG is coupled with an all-day heart rate monitoring, Afib for irregular notifications, blood oxygen, and menstrual cycle for women, among others. Plus, there are the usual and vital safety features like fall detection and crash detection.

I still remember how amazed I was when I first got hold of the Nokia 3210 back when I was a kid, and it was during that time I developed my love for technology, particularly for mobile phones. I started sharing my knowledge through writing in different blogs and forums back in Nokia Nseries era. I even make videos before where I put different phones side-by-side. Today, I'm still an avid enthusiast of smartphones, but my interests have evolved into smart devices and electric vehicles.
