They're still selling the Series 3? Last I heard you cannot even install regular updates on the thing without factory resetting it each time.

I get selling older stuff for price differentiation, but only when it is being supported fully. I'd feel bad for anyone who purchases a Series 3 in 2021 and expects to get a normal lifetime of usage out of it.

Plus no price reduction ($200) for a four-year-old piece of hardware that is suffering badly from age, no longer represents good VALUE either.



IMO this is a tacit acknowledgement that besides the Series 3 to Series 4 upgrade, all of the yearly watch upgrades are mostly minor.
