The new Apple Watch Series 9 is the latest in Apple’s flagship lineup of wearables. It hit shelves just this month, so unsurprisingly, we aren’t seeing any big discounts yet. But if you’re looking to upgrade, you can save up to $380 when you trade in an eligible smartwatch at Apple directly.

The Ultra 2 is the most advanced Apple Watch to date. It hit shelves just this month, and offers some slight improvements over the 2022 model. Like the Series 9, we’re not seeing too many big discounts quite yet, but you can save up to $380 with an eligible trade-in at Apple.

Unfortunately, you won’t find any straightforward discounts on the affordable Apple Watch SE (2022) at the moment. However, you can pick it up at Best Buy, which has its own trade-in program where you can save up to $235 with the trade-in of an eligible smartwatch. However, the biggest discounts are for the latest and most advanced Apple Watches, so unless you’re looking to downgrade, you’ll be looking at discounts of closer to $100 off. You’ll also get four free months of Apple Fitness Plus with the purchase, which is one more month than you get at the Apple Store.

Apple recently released the Apple Watch Ultra 2, which features some slight improvements over last year’s model. However, the previous-gen Ultra still has a ton to offer, and features a 49mm titanium case, a sapphire flat front crystal display and an impressive 36-hour battery life. And right now, you can select configurations for $100 off at Amazon, which drops the price to $699
