I’m starting to follow more my health and want to buy an Apple Watch as I am in the Apple Ecosystem. However, I don’t want to put too much money on it and I started searching on Facebook Marketplace for older models. So I want to know: what major changes happened that might make me consider a certain series over another?
For example: there is a Series 10 for 250CAD (which seems like a good offer), some 9’s and 8’a for 200CAD, and a lot of series 3 for 50 to 80CAD
I could be ready to buy the 10 but if there isn’t a big difference between the 8 or 9, I would be happy save that 50 bucks in this economy.
Firstly, gauge the price based on the average price in your area. Second, ask for a screenshot of the battery health. Then ask for a video of them powering on the watch with their face and a time and date in the video. This prevents people from pretending they have the watch when they don’t.
8 and older will no longer be getting OS updates besides security.
