AppleInsider September 7, 2022
The newly announced Apple Watch Series 8 is an update with a focus on speed improvements and fitness.
Rumors pointed to a significant Apple Watch redesign for the previous two generations. Instead, for 2022, Apple iterated on the existing design with minor changes that enhanced the overall experience.
The Apple Watch Series 8 could easily be mistaken for the Apple Watch Series 7 that came before it. The curved chassis, Digital Crown, speaker cutouts, and edge-to-edge display are identical.
New health capabilities
The external design didn’t need to change to accommodate the new body temperature sensor. It uses the existing sensor’s contact with skin to take periodic measurements to observe temperature trends.
