Best Apple Watch Deals: Save on Apple Watch Series 9, SE and More [CNET]
Thankfully, nearly the entire Apple Watch lineup can be found at a discount right now, including the stylish Apple Watch Series 9. The Apple Watch Series 8 is a bit scarcer: It’s 2 years old and stock has been hard to find, though Walmart features a higher-end stainless steel version and Best Buy offers certified Geek Squad refurbished models. Additionally, Best Buy has some discounts on Apple Watch accessories, such as bands and face covers, that allow you to save between $6 and $16.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
For those looking for a more cost-effective option, there are deals on the second-gen Apple Watch SE. Keep in mind that some older models, such as the Apple Watch Ultra, can be hard to find in stock. Because of limited supplies, prices tend to change often, especially with retailers like Amazon and Walmart. We’ll continue to update this list with the best deals as we find them.
It’s also worth noting that Apple is still in the middle of an ongoing patent dispute, which means the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 models no longer include the blood-oxygen monitoring feature.

Released back in 2022, the second-gen Apple Watch SE is the most recent Apple Watch that hasn’t been affected by the lawsuit, which means it’s still available from Apple and most retailers. It offers a slew of upgrades over the first generation, including the same processor as the Watch Series 8, crash detection and a few others. It’s already one of our favorite budget-friendly smartwatches and right now you can pick it up from Walmart for $60 off.

Another great deal on a higher-end Apple Watch Series 8 model is at Walmart. It’s for the stainless steel 41mm model with cellular and a Milanese loop, saving you $400 off the price this model would have cost before the Apple Watch Series 9’s debut. If this is the model you want, it could be a great way to get it without paying Series 9 prices. Keep in mind that it’s only available in the colors graphite and silver.

Amazon may be the best place to buy an Apple Watch Ultra 2 right now, with the retailer offering a $15 savings on the original asking price. These prices can vary depending on the band you choose, though, so make sure to check the price before you check out.
