It’s a good day for Apple shoppers looking for a deal on a new Apple Watch. The Apple Watch SE 3, the company’s most affordable smartwatch model, just dropped to its lowest price yet, according to price-tracking tools. The 40mm Cellular Apple Watch SE 3 is on sale for $249.99 (originally $299), and the bigger 44mm case is also available for the same price.
The SE 3, released in September, is the most affordable option compared to the Series 11 and the Ultra 3, all of which are the latest models released by Apple. The SE3 has the same Apple S10 processor as the Series 11 and better battery life, averaging about 46 hours. It has the always-on display, supports 5G, has gesture controls, on-device Siri processing, ovulation estimates, sleep apnea detection, and wrist temperature sensing. And, of course, you get all of the benefits of the upcoming iOS 26.2.
Since this is the cellular version, you don’t need to bring your iPhone along to be able to take calls or text. The improved 5G connectivity means your calls will be less likely to drop, and your downloads and streams will be faster.
What do you think so far?
If I were a betting man, I’d say you won’t find this watch any cheaper during the actual Big Spring Sale that starts tomorrow, given its recent release and Apple’s history with sales. This price is likely as good as it’s going to get for a while.
