About the Apple Watch Series 8 GPS Aluminum Case Sport Band

The Apple Watch Series 8 is Apple's mainstream smartwatch, pairing an always-on Retina display with an aluminum case and Ion-X glass. It adds a skin temperature sensor for cycle tracking, crash detection and a blood oxygen sensor on top of the usual heart rate, GPS and sleep tracking. It is swimproof and works with iPhone only. Reviewers rate it highly for fitness tracking and iPhone integration, but note the battery still needs a nightly charge and the design barely changed from earlier models.

What people mention
  • BatteryCriticisedOwners say it needs a charge roughly every day, so sleep tracking takes planning.
  • DisplayPraisedThe always-on screen is called bright and easy to read outdoors.
  • Fitness trackingPraisedReviewers find GPS and heart rate data accurate for runs, rides and gym sessions.
  • Health sensorsMixedBlood oxygen and temperature readings are seen as useful but not something most people check daily.
  • Upgrade valueCriticisedOwners of the Series 7 say the changes are too small to justify switching.

Questions and answers

Is the Series 8 worth it over the Series 7?
Only if you want crash detection, skin temperature sensing or a newer model. Otherwise the Series 7 covers the same core fitness and health tracking.
Does it work with Android phones?
No. The Apple Watch requires an iPhone and will not pair with Android devices.
Can I swim with it?
Yes. It is swimproof and rated for pool and shallow open-water swimming, though you should rinse it after salt water.
How long does the battery last?
About a day of normal use, less with GPS workouts. Most owners charge it overnight or during a shower.
What is in the box?
The watch, a Sport Band and a magnetic charging cable. A power adapter is not included.
Does it track sleep?
Yes, it tracks sleep stages, but you need to charge it outside your sleep window to keep the feature running.
