If you’re in the market for a budget-friendly Apple Watch, the SE 2nd Gen is currently $80 off during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. Normally priced at $299, the current discount brings the smartwatch down 27% to $219. This is as low a price as this watch ever gets, according to price-tracking tools.
Apple currently sells three Apple Watch models: the Series 10, Ultra 2, and second-generation SE. The SE line comes with the smallest size option and bare minimum specs, making it the go-to budget option for most smartwatch wearers. Its aluminum body packs a 1,000 nit display, a battery that’s advertised to hold up to an 18-hour charge, the S8 chip (powering features like Siri and Find my iPhone), and an optical heart rate monitor. You’ll get water resistance up to a 164 feet depth, and for a $50 up-charge, you can add in the ability to connect a cellular plan. For more details, check Apple’s site.
Lifehacker’s associate tech editor Michelle Ehrhardt confirms that the SE line has all the essentials you need. So, if you prefer a small, lightweight device with a minimal interface, now is the time to snag yourself the 2nd Gen SE.
If you’re looking for the something with a few more bells and whistles, but without sacrificing comfort and convenience, the Series 10 is 25% right now and is the best option for most people.
