The best Apple Watch deals this week include record lows on the Series 8 and second generation SE

November 15, 2022

UPDATE: Nov. 15, 2022, 4:15 p.m. EST We’ve updated this post to reflect the most recent pricing and availability on Apple Watches at the start of early Black Friday sales.

  • BEST NEW GEN DEAL: The Apple Watch Series 8 (41mm, GPS) comes with brand new temperature sensors and a crash detection feature, making it the best upgrade choice for those with a much older Apple Watch — $349 $399 at Amazon and Walmart (save $50)

  • BEST PICK FOR A LARGER WATCH FACE: The Apple Watch Series 7 (45mm, GPS) provides ECG and blood oxygen sensors and an always-on 45mm display for its lowest price ever in blue — $309 $379 at Best Buy (save $70)

  • BEST BUDGET PICK: The Apple Watch SE (44mm, GPS) is at the same price as its 40mm counterpart — $239.99 $279 at Amazon (save $29.01)

It’s been over seven years since the first generation Apple Watch began to grace people’s wrists. In that time, the Apple wearable has evolved in size and power, and naturally because it’s Apple, price. If you’re into the idea of having a fitness tracker, an extension of your phone, and all the world’s conveniences (or, at least a few more than you’re used to) wrapped around your wrist, but aren’t into shelling out the max amount of cash, you’ve come to the right place. Every week, we’ll keep a watch out (too much?) and update this post with the best Apple Watch deals from across the internet.

Why we like it

The Series 8 was announced only last month, and we already saw it drop $50 during Amazon’s Prime Day 2. And now, two weeks out from Black Friday, the savings are back.

While this might mean we see a slightly lower price drop in a couple of weeks, this deal is an excellent opportunity to beat the chaos of Black Friday and score some serious savings on this watch that has new temperature and crash detection sensors. If you’re currently wearing a Series 7 though, there’s basically no difference in processing speeds, battery life, and pretty much every other part of the Apple Watch experience.

Why we like it

The 45mm Series 7 Apple Watch is back to its all-time low of $309 in blue. With a large always-on display, plenty of health features, great durability, and quick charging power (all for a price under its 41mm counterpart’s MSRP), this deal is hard to beat.

Why we like it

If you’re about to add the 40mm SE to your cart because it’s a little bit cheaper, hold it right there — Amazon’s deal on the 44mm SE just brought it down to the same exact price. That’s an extra 4mm of watch face for no additional cost. You’ll also be scoring an S8 chip that makes this SE 20% faster than its predecessor, crash detection features, and slight design upgrades on the case.
