Ok, been there before. Don't be discouraged by some comments here. I disagree about lack of use.
Use cases. This fits everyone for the most part per their own preferences
1. You are outside probably grocery store and someone calls you. Do you want to pick up phone from your pocket every time? I don't. FYI, Apple Watch call quality is awesome. I don't mean taking every call but there are times you don't want to touch phone every freaking time
2. If you have 2FA or MFA setup for online accounts you can handle all these approvals and notifications from watch
3. Someone texted you and you kept phone somewhere, do you want to get up from that comfy couch just to check who it is?
4. Kids throw phone under bed or somewhere, how do you find it? Great feature that pings so you can find apple devices easily
5. Just remembered something important and wanted to quickly call without having to get phone from desk or somewhere? Hey siri from watch to call someone and you are all set
6. Last but not least, general notifications check from your watch to make sure someone doesn't have urgency rather than keep going for phone every time just solves all sorts of problems. Imagine while driving? Simple glance on the watch and you can peacefully drive without stopping or thinking about it
Phew, what else I have used it for?
Does this help? Do it. You will be the best version of yourself for $200-$300. If it was crazy expensive like $400-$600 I would not have pushed you or others.
I've bought like 6 Apple Watches from this Walmart blowout. The stainless cellular deals yesterday were absurd. Figured I'd grab this too and compare which is better, and then keep whichever I want to hang on to.
Target circle $229 was a steal for the 8 series 45 mm

Everyone has an Apple Watch that needs one, and they rarely need replacing. They'll probably release a new designed one next year to goose sales
This. I'm a tech head but I've had no need to upgrade a lot of devices on even a 2 year basis. I'm still rocking my original series 4 and honestly it would be fine except for battery life and so I'm getting a 9 for Christmas to hopefully last another 4 years. At this point I'm looking more for better battery life and efficiency rather than killer features.

I thought series 4 started new with about the same battery life specs as newer series including 9? Or did your 4's battery life decline a lot over the last four years of use? Short battery life is one reason I hesitate to get one since I want to wear it even during sleep, for sleep tracking, and heart rate tracking when I'm not sleeping. It can fast charge to help it along but then fast charging hurts long term battery life and makes it last even less as time goes by.

Yes, I think battery capacity is roughly the same (only so much you can do with the same form factor) between the last few models. Just checked my series 4 battery health and it's 82%. I use my watch pretty much 24/7 for what you mentioned as well as tracking my daily workouts. I charge it twice a day: while I'm getting ready in the morning and while I'm getting ready for bed at night - I top it off and then put it back on. It will not last the whole day without charging it at least once, but it honestly hasn't been a big deal. Hoping that the new chipset and efficiency improvements will make a difference... I could probably keep going with this watch since it does everything I need but like I said the new one is coming as a gift
