Buy series 11 now or wait for series 12?

Would you wait or just bite the bullet and get one now?

Do you need a watch now?

I would wait, if you can. Many expect Series 12 to get a better processor, so it would receive Updates longer. Series 9, 10 and 11 have essentially the same processor.

Definitely 12. Apple only updates the chip every three years. In between those years, only the marketing name is updated. If you buy 11, you’d be getting the short end of the stick since the current chip was first launched with Watch S9.

I don’t, just wasn’t sure if it was worth waiting for.

Oh I see. Wasn’t sure if waiting for 12 would be worth it.

Is money an issue? You can get a Series 11 for $100+ off right now. Are you looking at upgrading it every few years or keeping it till it dies?
