The latest Apple Watch is now at its lowest price ever. For a short period, you can grab the 42mm Apple Watch Series 10 for just $299, a 25% discount from its $399 retail price, or the 46mm version for $329, down 23% from $429. For iPhone users, the Apple Watch stands out as the top smartwatch choice, offering sleek design, superior build quality, robust fitness tracking, smartwatch capabilities, and seamless iPhone integration.
The Apple Watch Series 10 is the latest mainstream model, with the Series 11 not expected until September. Compared to the Series 9, it features a larger OLED Retina display, a new S10 processor that enables a slimmer design despite similar performance, a slightly bigger 42mm base model (up from 41mm), and minor additions like a water depth gauge. If you own a Series 9, upgrading may not be necessary, but for first-time buyers, the Series 10 is the ideal Apple Watch for most users.
Against the Apple Watch SE, the Series 10 offers a larger 42mm case (vs. 40mm), an Always-On display, a 30% faster processor, twice the storage, advanced fitness and health sensors, double-tap gesture support, and faster charging. While the SE is more budget-friendly at $199 on Amazon, the Series 10’s enhancements justify the cost for most buyers.
Using an Apple Watch with an Android phone is technically possible but not recommended. Many features rely on an iOS smartphone, and while workarounds exist, they’re often cumbersome for the average user. For the best experience, pair an Apple Watch with an iPhone. Android users will find better compatibility with smartwatches designed for their platform.
Numerous Apple products, including various AirPods models, are currently discounted. A standout offer is Amazon’s “Buy 3 for the Price of 2” deal on books, vinyl records, and physical movies.
