The Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen just went on sale for Amazon’s October Prime Day 2023

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, a 48-hour shopping sale similar to July's Amazon Prime Day event, has begun, and thousands of deals across nearly every product category are live. One of the standouts so far is the new low price we’ve tracked on the latest Apple Watch SE.

Amazon just cut the price of the entry-level Apple Watch by $50, bringing the price to just $199 for the 40mm GPS model and $229 for the 44mm variant. That’s a 20% discount off the $249 and $279 price tags for both.

You get your choice of a Starlight or Midnight aluminum case with a matching Sport Loop, making the entire thing carbon neutral. This is an excellent chance to score an Apple Watch for under $200 and one of the best smartwatches for an all-time low price. 

Prime members can score free, fast shipping here and access thousands of other deals for the members-only shopping event.

Just like the more expensive Apple Watch Series 9, the SE second-gen comes in two sizes: 40mm or 44mm. In either option, a Retina display illuminates when you get a notification, tap the screen, or raise your wrist. Once on, you can customize your watch face, and there is a plethora to choose from, including a new “Snoopy” themed face. You can also easily read the watch face in direct sunlight or under super bright artificial light, as the display maxes out at 1,000 nits.

You can navigate much of the watchOS interface by touch, but you’ll also use the Digital Crown and a button on the right hand side. Powering the Apple Watch SE is the Apple-made S8 chip, which also powers the Series 8 and Ultra first-generation, and even a year later it is still very snappy. Applications open up quickly, you can easily start a workout, and multitasking between tasks is seamless.

Thanks to an array of sensors on the rear of the Apple Watch SE, which sits on your wrist, you can track many workouts, core activity statistics, sleep (including stages), and even take a heart rate reading. The SE can also help during emergencies as it can detect a Car Crash and falls, with the ability to send out alerts or call for help.

If you’re alright, without an always-on display or more advanced health features, the Apple Watch SE is likely the best model within Apple’s lineup for you. Whether you’re upgrading from an older Apple Watch or this is your first, you’re scoring it at the lowest price we’ve tracked for either model.
