If you’re new to Apple watches, this is a good model to start with. The Apple Watch also earns our runner-up pick for the best smartwatch of 2021, second only to the newer Apple Watch Series 7. Our reviewer Andy praised the watch’s software, its always-on display carried over from the previous series, as well as its sharp, bright screen. The Apple Watch Series 6 earned our Editor’s Choice Award, earning an exceptional review score. Why buy an Apple Watch Series 6 Andy Boxall/Digital Trends If you wait to shop the Black Friday smartwatch deals, you might get a slightly better deal, but you might not get your pick of available band colors and extras. Shopping early will allow you to take advantage of some level of discount, while also getting your pick of the available stock before it runs low. In the best case scenario, the price might lower to $250, but those deals usually go out of stock just as soon as they go online. We’ll likely see prices lower to the $300 to $320 range. While we don’t know the exact discounts we’ll see on the day of Black Friday, we don’t anticipate discounts will be significantly larger than what we’re already seeing. Amazon also has early deals on the Apple Watch Series 6, with the same $50 discount on the red 40mm (aluminum, GPS) model, and the navy blue color selling for $75 off. The 44mm Aluminum GPS-only model is also selling for $50 off of its $429 retail price at Walmart, and you can pick one up for $379 in the black, navy, red, or white color options. Right now, you can buy the 40mm Aluminum (GPS only) Apple Watch Series 6 at Walmart for $349, which is $50 off of the retail price. If you chose a Hermes model, it could set you back as much as $1,500 retail. If you want the 44mm version, cellular connectivity, or a different material like stainless steel or titanium, the price goes up.

The Series 6 originally retailed for a starting price of $399 (for the 40mm GPS-only model in aluminum). Given the Series 7 just recently released, retailers might just want to get rid of their stock of the Series 6 (which is now technically discontinued, and no longer available for sale on Apple’s site).

This doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of small discounts though, especially on the Apple Watch Series 6. Because Apple rarely offers discounts, and their products tend to retain their value, we don’t typically see large discounts on Apple units, even on Black Friday. Black Friday is the best time to buy an Apple Watch Series 6 - but shop early deals Andy Boxall/Digital Trendsīlack Friday and Cyber Week are the last major shopping events of 2021 and that time of year when electronics prices are often at their lowest, but Black Friday Apple deals are a bit different than what we see with other electronics. With the Series 7 just releasing right before Black Friday, what kind of deals can you get on the Series 6? And, should you wait for Black Friday or take advantage of early Black Friday Apple Watch deals? We examine these very questions. The Series 6 Apple Watch has many of the perks you get with new Series 7, so you might be wondering if it’s worth going back a generation and buying the older model and taking advantage of Black Friday deals.
