Barely two months after its launch, the Apple Watch Series 6 is already being discounted. Is this a sign that no one wants the new model? Or is it so popular that retailers are using it as a lure to entice buyers?
Apple Watch Series 6 (2024) – See Before You Buy
The Apple Watch Series 6 is probably the best smartwatch you can buy. The problem is, last year’s Series 5 is almost as good. There are almost no new features that the average person would care about, and the biggest improvements come in the latest watchOS software update, which is also available for the older Series 5.
“It’s a little bit better, but not a huge difference,” Apple Watch and iOS app developer Graham Bower told Lifewire via instant message. “That’s kind of how Apple does these things.”
