You don’t have to spend a fortune to get a good smartwatch or wearable. A good option for iPhone users is the Apple Watch SE, the company’s most affordable smart timepiece. Cyber Monday deals have brought its price down to $149, which is 40 percent off and the lowest we’ve seen it.
The Apple Watch SE is a good choice for iPhone users who have yet to hop into the smartwatch ecosystem or perhaps are clinging onto a much older Apple Watch but don’t need a flagship model. If you’re looking for something more advanced, you’d be better off with the Apple Watch Series 10, which is also currently sitting at a record low price for Cyber Monday and is our pick for the best smartwatch overall.
The second-gen Apple Watch SE is our pick for the best budget Apple Watch and we gave it a score of 89 in our 2022 review. It has the same chipset as the Apple Watch Ultra and Series 8, and it should feel faster if you’re coming over from, say, a Series 6 or earlier model.
The SE shares some, but not all features with flagship Apple Watches. It supports crash detection, heart rate monitoring and emergency calling, and it is water resistant to 50 meters. We felt that the screen was easy to view, even when the sun was shining brightly. Fitness tracking is accurate (which is pretty important!). Perhaps most crucially, the Apple Watch SE is light and easy to wear.
The Ion-X glass isn’t quite as robust as the sapphire crystal on other recent Apple Watch models, so you’ll likely want to be extra careful with it. Other features present on other Apple Watch devices that are missing here include an always-on display, blood oxygen monitoring and temperature sensor. The very handy Double Tap feature isn’t available here either.
While we feel that this is a good price for the second-gen Apple Watch SE, it’s worth bearing in mind that a new model could arrive in the coming months. Apple is reportedly working on an Apple Watch SE with a plastic casing in a bid to reduce the price and allow for bolder color options. It’s unlikely that Apple will announce this model before next year, though.
If you’re already own an Apple Watch but would like to save on other Apple products, the good news is you can still save on products like the AirPods Pro 2 and 2024 iPad Air through to the end of Cyber Monday. Check out our whole list Apple devices on sale here.
