If you’re in the market for a new Apple Watch, the high-end sensors and features in the Series 9 or Ultra are certainly tempting. But for most people, the Apple Watch SE is perfect, especially when it’s on sale for the lowest price we’ve ever seen: Amazon is selling the 40mm Apple Watch SE for $179 and the 44mm Apple Watch SE for $209, savings of $70 each and the best price we’ve ever seen aside. Walmart also has the same deal on the 40mm and 44mm models.
The Apple Watch SE has the same design as the Series 6 from 2020 but is missing a few features, namely an always-on display, blood-oxygen sensor, and ECG sensor. It also has an older S8 chip but everything else that makes the Apple Watch great is included: an optical heart rate sensor, irregular heart rhythm notifications, fall and crash detection, noise monitoring, always-on altimeter, sleep monitoring, 18-hour battery life, and 50M water resistance.
And since Apple won’t be updating the SE until at least next September, go grab one now before the price goes back up.
