The Apple Watch SE 3 is at an all-time low of $199, making the sleeper hit of last year’s Apple Watches an even better value. While the Series 11 and Ultra 3 were iterative updates, the SE 3 was a wide-ranging glow-up that added an always-on display, gestures like double tap and wrist flick, a wrist-temperature sensor, 5G connectivity, fast charging, a speaker, and an upgraded processor that’ll support watchOS 27 when it arrives in the fall.
This is the Apple Watch that I recommend for most people, unless you really want a watch with thinner bezels and EKG and atrial fibrillation detection. The 40mm size is also great if you have a smaller wrist. When I was testing the watch, I really didn’t feel any FOMO. But if advanced health features are a sticking point, the Apple Watch Series 11 is also $50 off for an all-time low price of $279. Just a note for bargain hunters: keep in mind that we’re expecting to see a Series 12 in a few months, while we won’t likely see an update to the SE line for at least another year.
