By Jennifer Allen Published April 21, 2022

While the Apple Watch Series 6 may have recently launched, there’s still plenty of life left in the Apple Watch Series 3. Even better, you can snap up a factory-sealed Apple Watch Series 3 for just $169 right now at Amazon, bringing with it all the benefits of one of the best smartwatches out there. It’s just one of the many great Apple Watch deals around.

Sure, you might be thinking, “But I want the latest tech.” Well, did you know the Apple Watch Series 3 actually offers plenty of the features you’d most use on the Apple Watch Series 6 anyway? For the most part, if you don’t mind it running a little slower and you don’t need an always-on display, the Apple Watch Series 3 does everything you could need.

It has a built-in GPS so it can track all your workouts, from your daily runs to a long weekend hike. It’s swim-proof so it can also track your swimming sessions, plus you can keep it on while you’re showering. Best of all, the Apple Watch Series 3 also automatically tracks your workouts, saving you the hassle of doing it yourself.

It also has an optical heart sensor so you can easily see how your heart rate is doing throughout the day, monitoring for any changes while also knowing exactly when you’re hitting your most effective speed during your workout.

For those quieter times in life, the Apple Watch Series 3 allows you to store music, podcasts, and audiobooks so you can enjoy listening to all your favorites without needing your phone by your side all the time. The App Store offers plenty of useful tools and apps, too.

Effectively, for just $169, you’re getting a lot of what the Apple Watch Series 6 offers. It uses a slower processor and lacks a blood oxygen sensor, ECG app, and fall detection, but most users will still be more than happy with the Apple Watch Series 3, especially for a price that’s so much less than the latest Apple Watch.

Ordinarily priced at $199, the Apple Watch Series 3 is down to just $169 at Amazon. It’s the ideal time to snap one up and enjoy a fantastic smartwatch experience for a long time to come.

The Apple Watch Series 10, which was just rolled out last week, is already available with a discount from the Apple Watch deals of Amazon. The wearable device's GPS, 46mm model was originally priced at $429, but it's now on sale for $399. The $30 off may not look like much, but it's a nice bonus, especially if you were already thinking about buying Apple's latest smartwatch in the first place. We're not sure how much time is remaining on this offer though, so if you want to enjoy a little bit of savings with our purchase, you better hurry.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
We gave the Apple Watch Series 10 a rating of 4 out of 5 stars in our review of the wearable device, which we described as "another strong entry in the Apple Watch family." It offers impressive hardware, including a new speaker that will allow you to play music and podcasts on the smartwatch, and faster charging speeds to replenish its all-day battery life. The health and fitness features of the Apple Watch Series 10 is extremely comprehensive, with the new Vitals app providing an easy way of monitoring your body daily. Unfortunately blood oxygen tracking isn't available in the US, and there's no definite date on when it will return.

Preorder Apple Watch Series 10 and Ultra 2: best deals so far

Apple Watch Series 10 debut.

We will continue to update this page as new offers become available.

Apple announced a lot of great stuff at the Glowtime keynote, and one of the biggest is the new Watch Series 10 with a ton of upgraded features, including a larger display, which is, in fact, the largest display on an Apple Watch so far. It's also a wide-angle OLED, so you can see it at steeper angles than before, which makes using it a lot easier. Plus the 40% increase in max brightness means you aren't going to go running for shade every time you want to check it. It can also charge an incredible 80% battery after only half an hour of charging, which solves one of the bigger issues with smartwatches for those who want to use them to track their health and fitness.
