It’s just about the look.
Honestly, at first, I was disappointed that they only had this particular color and knew that I was going to be purchasing a new bandbut I actually really really ended up liking it. It’s just enough of a pop and although not quite as elegant the titanium that finish that the series 10, it’s great for a casual more sporty feel I actually love the band for every day tasks and working out. As far as features, I didn’t notice a drastic difference between the series 10, and the series 9. Battery life is comparable I would say I could probably get away with almost wearing it for two days without charging it if I wanted to depending on usage, of course. Was quite the upgrade from my series 5. So all in all I do not by any means regret purchasing the 9 as my day-to-day workout watch, but if you like a thinner, more elevated look (as far as smart watch can be anyway) I would go for the 10, but really that’s the only commentary both are great products and although I loved my series 5, just because I’ve had it for so long definitely an upgrade love having the always on screen

Best series
My initial impression of the Series 9 from September holds true. It's the best smartwatch for iPhone owners (and perhaps the best smartwatch) in general, thanks to its snappy and easy-to-navigate interface, wide selection of health monitoring options and smooth integration with Apple products. The biggest reason to buy it over the cheaper Apple Watch SE remains the Series 9's extra health and wellness tracking functionality, such as ECG monitoring, blood oxygen readings and temperature sensing. If your primary reason for buying a smartwatch is keeping a closer eye on your health, the Series 9 is the right choice.

Solid smartwatch. The band is nice and easily adjustable. It has held up well outdoors.
