Black Friday is over, but the deals continue
for the upcoming holiday season. If you’re looking to pick up an
Apple Watch, for yourself or as a gift, now is a good time to
buy.
In 2020, there were quite a few deals on Apple Watch, especially
if you weren’t concerned with buying the latest model. As the new
Series 7 is such a small upgrade over the Series 6, buying last year’s model makes more
sense than ever this year, if you can find one.
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.

Best
Prices on Apple Watch Series 3 Today
If you’re after a cheaper model than the Series 7, Best Buy will give you $30 off the Apple Watch
Series 3. But although it’s still available from Apple, 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 at
that price, 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.
Apple Watch: Best deals from carrier stores
If you’re interested in buying an Apple Watch with cellular
access, and you’re okay activating it and probably being forced to
buy on an installment plan, you can save a significant amount with
a carrier deal. It’s a lot of gotchas but the discounts are
steep.
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.
T-Mobile: Apple Watch SE is only $199 when you add a
qualifying line.
