It's called an Apple Watch.
If you have one and don't use it, getting the latest is not going to change your opinion. The 4 works perfectly well as it is. The 8 is not worth the price bump over the 7 and is much better value if you can get one.

I've a Series 4. Haven't seen anything in any of the later models that makes me want to upgrade. Which is unusual for me in general.
If you don't see the utility in the 4 for notifications, activity tracking, complications, etc, having an always-on screen will hardly make any difference.
