The Apple Watch SE is already the best value smartwatch in 2024. Knock $50 off the price and you’re getting a ton of wrist-based smarts for the coinage.

The Galaxy Watch 6 is the best smartwatch for Android users by a wide margin, with a solid selection of health and smart tech that rivals the pricier Apple Watch Series 9. Of course, it works best paired with a Samsung Galaxy smartphone. Like the Apple Watch, Galaxy Watch 6 users have access to a large selection of apps via the Google Play Store.
Apple Watch Series 9: was $399 now $349
The Apple Watch Series 9 is the best smartwatch for most people in 2024. It’s jam-packed with useful features, well-built, and a delight to interact with.
