My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: Apple Watch Series 11
The Apple Watch Series 11 is a mid-range smartwatch, positioned between the budget-friendly Apple Watch SE 3 and the flagship Apple Watch Ultra 3. It’s also the only watch still discounted on Black Friday. The GPS version starts at $329 (originally $399), while the GPS and cellular version starts at $429 (originally $499). According to price tracking services , both prices are the lowest ever.
It’s always nice when the ” best Apple Watch for most people ” gets better without a price increase compared to the previous generation. The Series 11 battery life has increased to 43 hours with the always-on display, compared to 36 hours for the Series 10. Furthermore, a 5G cellular version is now available, whereas previously Apple only offered LTE. This significantly improves cellular call quality and helps extend battery life. Another important update is that the hypertension alert feature is FDA-cleared, so this watch could potentially save your life if you suffer from high blood pressure. Like the new versions, the new smartwatch is brighter, thinner, and more durable.
You’ll start with the new watchOS 26 and all its features, such as heart rate monitoring, ECG, blood oxygen monitoring, temperature monitoring, pedometer, gyroscope, and more. If you already have a Series 10, you’ll see the same display, metrics, processor, and sensors, so you might not need to upgrade unless battery life and 5G connectivity are important to you.
At its current price, the Series 11 is a great smartwatch for most Apple fans, and it’s likely the lowest price they’ll be offered this year.
