Black Friday Apple Watch deals: Save $9 on a Series 7, $50 on a Series 6 – CNET [CNET]

It’s a period of change for the Apple Watch line right now. The new Apple Watch Series 7 smartwatch is slowly shipping to customers around the world, while the Series 6 was officially discontinued to make way for it. If you’re looking for bargains, then the best one we’re currently seeing is at Amazon, where you can save up to $50 on the Series 6 compared with the Series 7. Smaller savings are available for the new Series 7 as well as the midrange Apple Watch SE.

While it’s not live yet, we know from recent Black Friday plans released by Staples that the Apple Watch SE will be available for its first major discount. You’ll be able to save $50 on the Apple Watch SE though Staples, which could mean it will be price-matched by other retailers as well. Keep an eye on this page for more. 

Apple Watch models new and old are designed to work seamlessly with your iPhone to offer you many potential uses, from notifications of messages and better access to your music to tools that can help you get fit and maintain a healthier lifestyle. 

Note that the Series 3 watch is also on sale right now, but it’s so old at this point that it’s tough to recommend. 

We’ll update this story as prices change and deals emerge or expire, so be sure to check back for the best prices.
