So you want to buy a new smartwatch, and you’ve been waiting for the Black Friday deals to drop to upgrade your tech. I’ve got good news — the Black Friday deals have started a week early this year, and now is a good time to buy. 

I’ve been covering Black Friday for the past nine years, and this year, the deals appear to be dropping earlier than ever. Below, I’ve hand-picked a few of the best Black Friday smartwatch deals that have already dropped, but keep an eye on our Black Friday smartwatch deals hub as we get nearer to Black Friday. 

The best Black Friday Apple deal

Apple Watch Series 8 (GPS/41mm): was $399 now $299 @ Amazon $100 off

Apple Watch Series 8 (GPS/41mm): was $399 now $299 @ Amazon
The best Apple Watch deal to shop today is on the Apple Watch Series 8, which currently has a whopping $100 off! It's not the newest Apple Watch on the market, but don't let this put you off. Aside from the double tap gesture and the S9 processor, the Apple Watch Series 8 looks and feels very similar to the Apple Watch Series 9. This is a great buy.

Is Black Friday a good time to buy a smartwatch? 

In a word, yes! Last year we saw discounts on a number of brand's top smartwatches, from Apple to Fitbit. The deals above are all fantastic, and are some of the lowest prices we've seen for the smartwatches in question, so we'd be tempted to shop now, rather than wait for the official Black Friday to arrive!
