Despite not being as new as the Watch Series 10, the Series 9 offers an impressive set of features and is one step up from the base SE model. The Apple Watch Series 9 can track activity, steps, heart rate, respiratory rate, wrist temperature, sleep, and environmental sound levels (to protect your hearing). It uses algorithms and machine learning to spot dangerous patterns and alert you to seek medical attention.

Read the review: Apple Watch Series 9: Don’t settle for less expensive models, here’s why

ZDNET editor-in-chief Jason Hiner recommended purchasing it over cheaper models after first reviewing the Series 9 in 2023. 

“Inside the Apple Watch Series 9 is the S9 chip, making the popular smartwatch faster, smarter, and better at reading your body signals — based on my real-world tests next to the last-generation model,” Hiner wrote in his review. “That makes this year’s Apple Watch Series 9 a generational step up. So, if you’re in the market for an Apple Watch right now, I’d specifically recommend getting the Series 9 (or the Apple Watch Ultra 2) because the health tracking is such an improvement from previous models.”
