Cyber Monday deals didn't wait for 12:01 a.m and have already been in full swing since the weekend. However, with the day of the event finally here, it's an even better time to invest in an Apple Watch. Major savings are available on the Apple Watch Series 10, Series 9, Ultra 2 and even the budget-friendly Apple Watch SE, with many at their lowest price ever -- some were already close to selling out! As discounts on Apple products are increasingly rare, it's worth taking advantage before Cyber Monday ends tomorrow. Plus, an Apple Watch makes a thoughtful gift for anyone aiming to kick-start healthy habits in the new year.
If you're unsure which Apple Watch model is right for you, think about your priorities and budget. The Series 10 is ideal if you're looking for advanced health features like nighttime temperature readings and ECG capabilities, while the SE offers a more affordable option for basic fitness tracking and notifications.
The Apple Watch lineup includes some of the best smartwatches on the market, but they can also be among the most expensive. That's why more than a dozen CNET shopping experts this month have been analyzing thousands of offers from retailers like Amazon, Apple, Best Buy and Walmart. We're reporting our findings in lists like this, especially for products we've tested. We're keeping this list up to date to make sure you get up-to-the-minute savings on Apple Watches.
Unlike most Apple products, pricing on Apple Watch models tends to fluctuate throughout the year. They are especially prone to price drops during major shopping events. Lo and behold, we're seeing some significant deals among this year's Cyber Monday offers. You can check out our roundup of Cyber Monday Apple deals for even more savings.
Apple isn't offering direct discounts on the Apple Watch, but there are plenty of offers at third-party retailers to take advantage of. Overall, the best deals we've found on Apple Watches right now are among Amazon's Cyber Monday deals, and we are also seeing discounts crop up as part of Best Buy's Cyber Monday sales, as well as some from Walmart and Target. Don't shy away from carrier deals if you're in the market for a cellular-enabled Apple Watch model and are willing to open a new line of service for the extra device. Where can I trade in my Apple Watch?
If you're looking to hand over your existing Apple Watch for some credit against a new model this Cyber Monday weekend, there are plenty of places you can do just that. Apple has its trade-in program where you can get money off a new device, although Best Buy's similar program might be more appealing at this time of year since the retailer is also offering direct discounts on new Apple Watch models. There are also third-party services for selling used electronics, which might bag you more money.
