The Apple Watch Series 8 isn't the latest model but it's still one of the best smartwatches to have shipped to date. And in reality, it isn't all that different from the newer Apple Watch Series 9, plus it comes with a working blood oxygen sensor. So being able to pick up a refurbished Apple Watch Series 8 for 20% off today with the code SAVE20 is worth paying attention to. The sale ends on Oct. 9 at 12 am CT.Â
Better yet, these devices have all been refurbished by Apple itself. If you've ever bought an Apple refurb, you'll know that these devices arrive looking pristine and will come in the proper packaging with all the usual accessories. They're also backed by the same Apple warranty as its brand new products and are eligible for AppleCare Plus coverage if you want to add that for extra peace of mind.Â
The watch features the GPS 41mm model in aluminum, but you can upgrade to cellular and stainless steel for a price. It's important to remember that this deal is for one day only. Woot says that the deal ends on Oct. 9, which means you only have a matter of hours left to act.Â
The Apple Watch Series 8 comes with a bright always-on display to easily see the time, even without lifting your wrist. There are also the usual health and fitness apps, with Apple Health tying everything together. The App Store is full of apps that can count your calories, monitor your health and track your workouts and then feed that information into the Health app.
Those who choose the cellular Apple Watch will be able to make calls, access data and use iMessage even when they don't have their iPhone around, too. That can be a real boon for people who work out and don't want to have to take their expensive iPhone with them -- and it means you won't have to find somewhere to put it during your workout.Â
