We thought Black Friday and Cyber Monday would bring the lowest prices of the year, but apparently not. Right now, you can snag Apple’s Watch Series 11 in the 42mm configuration with GPS for a new all-time low of $299 ($100 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. That beats the $70 discount we saw at the beginning of the month, which means if you didn’t take advantage then, you can save even more now. The 46mm model with GPS is also down to its lowest price yet of $329 ($100 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy.
The Series 11 offers some nice improvements to the already-excellent Apple Watch Series 10. While this year’s model has the same dimensions as its predecessor, battery life has increased up to 24 hours per charge on the GPS / Wi-Fi model. At the same time, Apple managed to improve the Series 11’s durability and scratch-resistance, making it a better option for more intense workouts. Additionally, Apple added a more power-efficient 5G modem to the cellular model, so the battery won’t drain as quickly when you’re not on Wi-Fi.
Otherwise, the Series 11 carries over everything we loved about the Series 10. The wide-angle OLED display looks fantastic and is easy to read at a glance, while performance is excellent thanks to Apple’s S10 SiP chip. You also get a variety of health and wellness features, including FDA-cleared hypertension notifications, sleep apnea detection, and sleep score, which can summarize how well you slept. Meanwhile, you get access to the watchOS 26 update, which introduces a workout buddy and offers wrist-flick and double-tap gestures, along with the Liquid Glass redesign.
If you already own a Series 10, there aren’t many reasons to upgrade outside of the slightly improved battery life. However, if you have something older or you’re checking off a gift list, the Series 11 at $100 off is a great deal right before the holidays.
