If you’re looking for a new smartwatch, the Apple Watch Series 9 is the best of the best, with a gorgeous design, an incredible array of sensors, and the best display in the business. But it’s even better when you can get one for this cheap: Amazon is selling the 41mm Apple Watch Series 9 and 45mm Apple Watch Series 9 for $299 and $329, respectively, a savings of $100 and 25 percent off the MSRP.
The Apple Watch Series 9 has either a 41mm or 45mm display with two exclusive features: an S9 chip that’s faster and smarter with a new four-core Neural Engine, and the new double-tap gesture that lets you control apps without touching the screen. Otherwise, it’s got the same array of sensors—ECG, heart rate, and temperature. (It also has a blood-oxygen sensor, though Apple has turned off functionality due to an ongoing patent dispute. It may return in the future though.) You’ll also get 18 hours of battery life, 50 meters of water resistance, Emergency SOS, and Crash Detection.
In our 4-star review, we praised the Apple Watch Series 9 as “the best smartwatch Apple has ever made.” And at this price, it’s practically a steal, so go grab one before the price goes back up
