Its pros include: a great design and display, a skin temperature reader for cycle + sleep tracking, a new crash detection feature, a new watchOS 9 workout interface, and a longer battery life with low power mode.

Against it is its large size, no offline maps and no recovery metrics. But don't let that put you off as the Apple Watch Ultra is a great smartwatch and with a discounted price, it's our pick of the Apple Watch deals.
Apple Watch Ultra: was $799 now $739 @ Best Buy
The Apple Watch Ultra has a saving of $60 right now at Best Buy. It’s not much, but it’s the cheapest we’ve seen Apple’s biggest and toughest watch. The saving is across the Ultra with the orange, green and starlight alpine loops, though some models are currently sold out. All of the other bands are still full price.
Apple Watch Ultra: up to $155 credit @ Apple
Deals on the Apple Watch Ultra are scarce, but trade-in your old Apple Watch at the Apple Store and you'll get up to a $155 credit you can put toward your new smartwatch. Currently, Apple is offering up to $155 trade-in credit for Apple Watch 6, up to $105 for Apple Watch SE, up to $115 for Apple Watch 5, up to $50 for Apple Watch 4, and up to $40 for Apple Watch 3.
Apple Watch SE
The Apple Watch SE might be cheaper than other models on this list, but it's still a very capable smartwatch with a myriad of features. Its design is excellent as well.
Its pros include a color-matched bottom case, having the same chip as the Apple Watch 8, and sporting a low power mode.
On the cons side, it has thick-ish bezels and no low-power mode. But when discounted, this already affordable smartwatch is still very appealing.
Apple Watch SE 2022 (GPS/40mm): was $249 now $229 @ Amazon
The new Apple Watch SE sports a modern processor (S8), Crash Detection capability, and watchOS 9. It's also priced from $249, which is $20 cheaper than last year's model. Amazon is offering a $20 discount on the 40mm and 44mm models, which equals Best Buy for the lowest price we've seen for this watch.
Apple Watch SE 2022 (GPS/44mm/M/L): was $279 now $259 @ Target

Target is offering a $20 discount on the M/L size group for the 44mm model right now. Midnight is for local pickup/delivery only.
Apple Watch SE 2020 (GPS/40mm): was $279 now $149 @ Walmart
The previous-gen Apple Watch SE is a solid mid-tier smartwatch. It features the same chip found in the Apple Watch 5, but sports a bigger screen than the Apple Watch 3. It supports Emergency SOS calling, fall detection, and features a built-in compass and always-on altimeter. It's now on sale for $149 (its lowest price ever).
Apple Watch 7
As the last-gen Apple smartwatch the Apple Watch Series 7 is eclipsed by the Series 8, but it's still well worth your consideration. Especially, as it's not that far behind Cupertino's latest watch.
In its favor is a screen with slim bezels, a brighter always-on mode, QWERTY keyboard support and it comes with USB-C magnetic charger.
Being stuck with an 18-hour battery life an no major health upgrades are a pair of cons, but otherwise the Apple Watch 7 is definitely worth a look, especially when it's been sliced in price.
