Or take a look right now by exploring our range of refurbished Apple Watches at UR.co.uk.

• The Apple Watch Series 8 has a few new safety features to protect you from unfortunate incidents.

• You gain access to an array of high-spec features in the Series 7 at a more economical price.

If you compare the Apple Watch Series 7 and Series 8 side by side, you'll struggle to discern much difference in style.

Both watches boast the signature Apple timepiece aesthetic, first established with the Apple Watch Series 5, featuring a sleek, modern rectangular design with softly tapered corners and curved edges.

Both models also feature the same Always-On LTPO Retina OLED display, renowned for its deep blacks and a vivid spectrum of bright colours, adaptable to any lighting condition.

The display intelligently dims during periods of inactivity, a feature aimed at boosting overall battery life alongside low power mode. Plus, they have the same aluminium casing, designed to withstand intense usage with minimal scarring.

The only main difference is the colour options available, with the Series 7 having a few more than the Series 8. Yet, this isn't much of an issue if you're looking to use a protective case. Check out our Apple Watch Series 7 45mm refurbished to see what options are available.

If you're in the market for an Apple timepiece brimming with features, then either the refurbished Series 7 or the refurbished Series 8 could be the one for you.

The Series 7 comes fully equipped with an Always-On altimeter, a blood oxygen sensor, and an electrical heart sensor, akin to the innovations found in the Series 8. These features excel across a broad spectrum of uses, from tracking fitness milestones to gaining insights into your health on a daily basis.

However, it's at this point that the Series 8 begins to slightly diverge.

Echoing the more expensive Apple Watch Ultra, the Apple Watch Series 8 introduces a new skin temperature sensor. This innovation is designed to monitor temperature changes in your body while awake and asleep, aiding in the detection of illness or providing more in-depth fertility tracking.

Alongside this, the Series 8 boasts improved car crash detection and fall detection capabilities, which are vital in emergencies, automatically alerting local authorities in such unfortunate incidents should they occur.

Last but not least is it's performance.

Although the Series 8 has an improved processor compared to the Series 7, various tests have shown only minor changes in battery life and performance, with the Series 8 slightly outdoing those of previous models. Read more here.

It's also important to note, however, that the Series 8 was released slightly later than the Series 7. So, though changes between the two models might be minor to some, you also gain Apple updates for longer, ensuring more prolonged support and feature enhancements.

That's not all; whether it's a new Apple Watch Series or an older model, purchasing from UR.co.uk brings additional benefits.

Some of these include:

• Free delivery

• A free wrist strap of the same colour as the device itself.

• Various payment options

Plus, each of our devices is renewed and reinvigorated under the watchful eyes of our expert technicians, so you can expect your refurbished Apple Watch to work like new, boasting all the same features, such as its advanced Always-On display and sleek, modern design.

To sum up, choosing which Apple Watch to buy next boils down to personal preference.

You're evidently going to get great specs with the refurbished Series 7 at a lower price tag than its newer counterpart, making it perfect for those on a budget.

Yet, for those wanting the best of the best, look no further than the Series 8. With this model, you'll receive improved health and safety features likely to last ever-slightly longer due to its later release date.

Whatever you decide, you're sure to be securing a great deal from UR.co.uk, while committing to sustainability in the process.
