Maybe you didn't get the Apple Watch you wanted under the tree this year, or maybe being just two days away from Jan. 2025 has you a little extra aware of the fitness goals you set — either way, it's worth knowing the Apple Watch Series 10 is back down to its lowest price ever.
Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy are offering the same markdown on both sizes of the watch, with the lattermost retailer being your best option for colorway availability. As of Dec. 30, the prices break down so that the 42mm Apple Watch Series 10 is on sale for $329, down $70 from its $399 MSRP, and the 46mm Apple Watch Series 10 is $359, $70 down from the $429 MSRP. These are also the prices we saw these watches at during Black Friday season.

Mashable Senior Editor Stan Schroeder wrote in his review of the Series 10 that its probably not worth buying the new watch for Series 9 owners, but if "you own any of the [other] previous versions, the Series 10 will feel a lot fresher...And if you've never owned an Apple Watch and want to dive in now, the Series 10 is a good place to start."
For instance, the 18-hour battery life from Apple Watches prior returns, but the latest iteration offers faster charging, promising zero to 80% in 30 minutes (Schroeder saw it go from 0 to 80% in 40 minutes, and 20 and 80% in 25). The display is one millimeter larger than past iterations, which Schroeder said made for a slightly more comfortable experience even if the display size didn't immediately feel bigger unless comparing the watches side by side. He did say, however, that the weight does drop nearly a third from the Series 9 to 10, and that difference was definitely noticeable. The wide-angle OLED display also helped improve visibility from the side.

The watch also supports audio playback, but we're betting more people will appreciate the better voice isolation for taking calls. And if you're wondering, no, this watch doesn't have the blood-oxygen sensor either due to a lawsuit against Apple.
