Apple is behind many of our favorite smartwatches. The devices are great for wellness enthusiasts or folks currently integrated into the Apple ecosystem who want to wear the brand’s convenient features, such as fitness tracking and tap-to-pay functions, on their wrists. The brand’s smartwatches include the budget-friendly Apple Watch SE and the Apple Watch Ultra 2, which can run you a few more bucks. Regardless of your needs, there are always deals that can help you score an Apple Watch for less.
CNET’s dedicated deals team has rounded up some of the best offers on every Apple Watch model still available at carriers and retailers. That includes straightforward discounts of up to $280 or more off on some great models, and you can save even more with an eligible trade-in or new line at a carrier. It’s a great time to buy, with potential price hikes caused by the new tariffs on the horizon.

Apple Watch Series 10 at T-Mobile
If you’re looking to get a Series 10 with cellular connectivity, you can grab one for $250 off at T-Mobile when you activate a new line of service on a qualifying Digits Apple Watch Plus plan. The discount will be applied as bill credits over 24 months, dropping the price down to about $10 per month.
If you want more than one, you can save $300 on a second Apple Watch, but you’ll have to add a line for each watch to get this deal. This offer applies to any of the Apple Watch models T-Mobile carries, which means you can use it to get the Series 10, SE or Ultra 2.
T-Mobile is also offering a deal on many smartwatches, including the Apple Watch Series 10, where you can get a cellular model at the Wi-Fi price. For the Series 10, this gets you $101 off, but you have to be on a Go5G Next plan and add a qualifying line for the watch.

Apple/CNET
Prices and availability change often because of limited supply, especially through retailers like Amazon and Walmart. We’ll continue to update this list with the best deals as we find them. It’s also worth noting that Apple is still in the middle of an ongoing patent dispute, which means the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 models no longer include the blood-oxygen monitoring feature in the US.
