Don’t want to upgrade this year? Apple Watch Series 9 models still $100 off with deals starting at $299

To update: In addition to the $100 price reductions on the aluminum models below, we are now tracking solid discounts on the higher-end stainless steel models starting at $599 – that’s $100 off, which matches our previous mention and is comparable to the best we found on almost all configurations.

While we have seen some good deals on the Apple Watch Series 9 for Memorial Day, especially on the GPS + Cell models and these ongoing deals on the Ultra Watch 2 from $719Amazon has now brought back some of the most notable price cuts we’ve seen on the 45mm and 41mm GPS configurations. With the cheapest entry point into the Series 9 configurations and, what’s most attractive to me, Amazon is now offering the silver aluminum Apple Series 9 model on sale for $299 shipped in size 41mm and $329 Ships in 45mm. These $100 direct discounts are also available on the Midnight and Starlight case finishes and are now matched at Best Buy as well. Both case sizes are now back to the lowest price on Amazon. More details below.

There were some limitations on color and configurations last time, but between the current Best Buy deals and the options on Amazon, almost all of the major options are discounted. You might want to take advantage of the sale price and then just swap the band for something else—the main thing is that you get the size and case color of Apple Watch you want at the discounted price. And for my money, the silver option is very worthwhile and works with a huge range of band options, including everything from something sporty and lightweight to something handcrafted brown leather and more.

Built on Apple’s S9 chip, the Apple Watch Series 9 is the latest model of Apple’s wearable technology (without moving up to the Ultra class, of course). It’ll be a while before the next iteration drops to prices like that, so unless you’re planning on upgrading later this year at a price much closer to the MSRP, check out today’s deals. The Series 9 is packed with health and fitness tracking, the emergency features, and one of Apple’s brightest displays (3,000 nits). Not to mention support for the double-tap-pinch gesture (details here).
