So I know that price is the motivating factor here but a watch isn’t like a phone you swap out every couple years. I would definitely not buy a previous years model, and further, after getting a S9 myself, I think the new Double Tap gesture is going to become a major user input tool going forward, and I wouldn’t want to buy something that I’m planning on using for the next five years that cannot do what is bound to be an integral part to the UI/UX in subsequent OS updates.
I’d do whatever you can to splurge for the 9, just to future proof your purchase as much as possible
