We'll be sure to keep this post updated with the latest and best savings on smartwatches throughout Prime Day and after.

Best new release deal

Why we like it

The newly released Apple Watch Series 9 is already on sale. Granted, it's a savings of under $10, but if you're in a hurry to grab the latest Apple Watch, now's your chance. However, we hope to see this drop lower once Prime Day kicks off.

The latest watch launches Apple's introduction of FineWoven material, moving away from leather. It will also have a double-tap feature once it goes live later this month. Tap your finger and thumb together twice and you can answer and end calls, launch the smart stack, and stop a timer. You'll also score an 18-hour battery life and a slew of health and fitness tracking features.

Best overall deal

Why we like it

If you don't need the absolute latest in tech, the Apple Watch Series 8 is still a great option when it comes to smartwatches. You'll be able to track sleep, heart rate, fitness goals, and blood oxygen. It also has some unique features like crash and fall detection. Target is offering the lowest price we've ever seen on the Series 8, a savings of $174.01 thanks to Circle Week sales. To score this deal, you'll need to be a Target Circle member, but it's free to sign up. This deal is also limited to the (PRODUCT)RED color option, but you'll still have a choice of size (small/medium or medium/large).
