dropping Series 9 seems kinda rough... it's only 3 years old.
This is a mistake apparently series 9 is supposed to be supported
that makes more sense
Your link says it is compatible
Yeah, WTAF, I have a series 9. It still feels new to me. What will it not be able to do? Have they said yet?
Update to the new watchOS, but apparently that's not accurate according to what someone else said.
According to Apple, it’s supported
From the website:
Apple's initial compatibility list incorrectly said that the Apple Watch Series 9 would not support watchOS 27. We've updated this article following the company's confirmation that the device will indeed get the latest software.

Just got my partner the 2nd gen SE for Christmas :(
dropping support for the original apple watch ultra is lame af. glad to be exiting this shitty ecosystem
I got a series 3 for $50. What more do I need a watch to do other than: tell the time, count my steps, notify of my messages when I can’t have my phone on me at work?
I scoff at your update, Apple.
Article header now says series 8
Just casually dropping 3 generations at once. Nice move Apple.
