If you’re looking to buy a new Apple Watch, you’ll want to make sure you get the best price. However, with the new Series 7 being such a small upgrade over the Series 6, we’d recommend you don’t just look for the best prices on the current generation if you want to find the absolute best deals.
That said, some of the cheapest deals you’ll find will be on the 2017 Apple Watch Series 3 – and that prove a step too far. This is now a much older model that we don’t really recommend. It’s sort of an evolutionary dead-end for the Apple Watch. The smaller screen with with large bezels, the slower processor… there’s just no telling how much longer it’s going to get watchOS updates. But, if it’s really cheap, it can be a great stopgap to simply track some workouts or get started with Apple Fitness+ while you wait for a more capable Apple Watch in a year or two.
Below we’ve highlighted our top picks of the Apple Watch deals available. Note that Apple does not discount its own products, so the best deals are typically from other retailers. Our real-time price-comparison charts for each model can help you work out exactly where to find the best value for money today.

Apple Watch: Best deals from carrier stores

AT&T: Buy any two Apple Watch models on an installment plan and get up to $200 off, as a monthly bill credit over 36 months.
