With the days growing longer and spring just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to get back outside to resume our walking regimens and exercise routines. Whether you’re trying to count steps or get into a guided workout, an Apple Watch can help you get or stay fit. Achieving and maintaining a healthier lifestyle is made easier with an assist from the fitness-tracking Apple Watch. In addition to keeping up with your fitness goals, the Apple Watch is also handy for checking notifications and controlling your music on the go, without needing to pull out your iPhone.

The Apple Watch Series 7 gets a larger screen and, for the first time ever, a QWERTY keyboard. It also has new color options, and it offers faster charging and improved durability for the same price as the discontinued Series 6. Both models (the 41mm and 44mm) are discounted on Amazon by up to $60, which is the biggest price break we’ve seen yet. And you can save $39 right now on the more affordable Watch SE, which has many of the same impressive features as the Series 7. The Apple Watch SE is slightly smaller, though, and lacks an always-on display, blood oxygen saturation measurements and the ability to take electrocardiogram measurements. For both the Apple Watch SE and the Series 7, you may need to seek out particular colors to snag the best discount and the lowest price.

You can still get the Watch Series 3, even at deep discounts, but it’s so old and outdated at this point that it’s difficult to justify recommending.

We’ll continually check back and update this story as prices fluctuate with deals emerging or expiring, so keep checking back with us for the best prices available.

The Series 7 features a larger display with thinner bezels, the promise of better durability and faster charging (but not better battery life than the Series 6). There are also new color choices: blue, green, midnight (black), starlight (a gold-silver blend) and Product Red. Most color variants of the 41mm model are $50 off right now at Amazon, but you can save an extra $3 on the 41mm Series 7 in green.

You can also save $60 on the green color variant of the 45mm model, which is the biggest discount we’ve seen offered on the larger Series 7 model. Slightly smaller discounts are also available on the other color options of the 45mm Series 7.

The Watch SE is the step-down model in Apple’s smartwatch line. It’s similar to the 2019 Series 5 but without the always-on screen and EKG function. The Watch SE starts at $279 and boasts a more powerful processor and a Retina display that’s 30% larger than the one on the much older Series 3. You can get the gold, silver and grey color variants at a $39 discount right now at Amazon. There’s an initial $30 discount and an additional $9 applied at checkout. Amazon has offered as much as a $50 discount on the Watch SE in the past.
