If you’ve been waiting for a sign to invest in one of Apple’s sport watches, consider this it. Apple Watch Prime Day 2023 deals have officially dropped. Right now, two of the latest Apple Watches, the Series 8 and SE, are on sale for up to 30 percent off on Amazon.
These models are great for different reasons, so we’re breaking down the biggest differences below. FYI, this is one of the best times of year to shop Apple devices, since the hot ticket items rarely see steep discounts. So, make sure to jump on these savings before Prime Day ends at midnight on July 12.
The Apple Watch Series 8 is one of the latest wearable releases from Apple. The tech specs are as follows: a sleep, heart rate and blood oxygen monitor, an activity tracker and a brand new internal temperature sensor. The wearable has an impressive edge to edge screen where you can view health and workout stats, call and answer texts with your iPhone nearby and more. The smart watch is also IP6X certified dust-resistant and is swimproof up to 50 meters. The GPS model is seeing the deepest price cut at the moment, which means you’ll need to keep your iPhone nearby to enjoy texts and calls from your wrist. If you’re looking for cellular connectivity, that model is also on sale for $120 off.
Now, the Apple Watch SE isn’t as high tech as the Series 8, but it still packs a lot into the budget-friendly wearable. The SE offers sleep and heart rate monitoring (sans the ECG app, though you can still get low and high heart rate alerts), activity tracking, and maintains the standard watch feature of being water resistant up to 50 meters. Plus, it keeps safety features like Emergency SOS, fall and crash detection. The wearable also packs an up to 18-hour battery life, which helps when it comes to sleep monitoring. It’s down to just $199, which is the lowest price we’ve seen on the device, and the GPS+Cellular model is on sale too, now discounted to $250.
While the Series 7 and Apple Watch Ultra had dropped in price in the weeks leading up to Prime Day, they’re not experiencing any markdowns at the moment. We’re hopeful to see them back on sale sometime between now and the end of Prime Day, but take it from us—Prime Day Apple Watch deals come and go swiftly, so if you see one you like, strike while the iron is hot.
