Apple Watch SE 3 Drops to $199–$229 in Amazon’s Early Black Friday Deals

The discounts spotlight S10-level performance, an always-on display, faster charging, with missing ECG‑class sensors still the tradeoff.

Overview

  • Amazon’s current prices hit $199.99 for the 40mm GPS model and $229.99 for the 44mm, with availability varying by color and inventory.
  • SE 3 runs the same S10 chip as Series 11 and Ultra 3, adding on‑device Siri plus an always‑on display to narrow the everyday experience gap.
  • Reviewers recommend SE 3 for first‑time and budget buyers, citing new sleep scoring and overall responsiveness at the lower price tier.
  • Health features remain pared back as the watch uses an optical heart‑rate sensor and lacks electrical sensors for ECG‑level capabilities.
  • Other models also see cuts, including a 46mm Series 11 Natural Titanium at $679 ($120 off), Series 10 starting near $280, Ultra 3 at $699, and SE 2 as low as $159.
