<p>At these prices, the Apple Watch Series 9 becomes a more enticing option as a gift for a special someone in your life, or even just yourself. We think this is the <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="
https://www.engadget.com/best-smartwatches-153013118.html">best smartwatch[/url] you can buy overall (though obviously you'll need to look at different options if you're an Android user).</p>
<p>In our review, we gave the Apple Watch Series 9 <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="
https://www.engadget.com/apple-watch-series-9-review-freedom-from-touching-your-screen-130009764.html">a score of 92[/url]. There are some major upgrades this year, thanks to the introduction of a more powerful S9 system-in-package (SiP) processor.</p>
<p>One of the key new features is called Double Tap, which builds on Apple's Assistive Touch accessibility tool. When Double Tap is enabled, you carry out a pinching action using the hand that's wearing the watch to carry out the main function in an app. It's a useful way to control certain aspects of your smartwatch without having to touch the screen. You can use Double Tap to, for instance, snooze an alarm, pause a song that's playing or reply to a message.</p>
<p>Using the gesture to reply to a message will bring up the Siri-powered voice typing option. So it's worth mentioning here that, thanks to the S9 SiP, the Apple Watch Series 9 can handle on-device Siri processing. That makes the voice assistant's performance a bit snappier, as Apple doesn't have to send your request to its servers for processing and back again. It also means that Siri can work offline.</p>
<p>Elsewhere, a second-gen ultra wideband chip powers a more precise Find My iPhone experience, as long as the phone you're looking for also has that chip. For instance, when you're looking for a misplaced iPhone 15 Pro, the Apple Watch Series 9 will show you how many feet away the device is, along with a directional indicator to guide you to it. Other upgrades in the latest Apple Watch include a brighter display. You'll also be able to check out the revised UI that Apple brought in with watchOS 10.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the second-gen Apple Watch SE (which scored 89 <a data-i13n="cpos:6;pos:1" href="
https://www.engadget.com/apple-watch-se-2022-review-battery-life-workout-health-tracking-144551799.html">in our review last year[/url]) has fallen to an all-time-best price too. If you're looking for a more budget-friendly way into the Apple Watch ecosystem, this could be the right option for you. Both sizes of the Apple Watch SE are $70 off, with 40mm versions <a data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:;cpos:7;pos:1" href="
