Black Friday<\/a> is the perfect time to snag that pricey tech gadget you’ve been eyeing all year, with prices often plummeting to their lowest. Whether it’s a self-indulgent purchase or a gift for someone special, there’s bound to be a deal worth grabbing.<\/p>\n

Smartwatches are one item that shoppers will undoubtedly be on the lookout for, especially with brands like Apple<\/a> typically pricing their latest models close to \u00a3400. However, there’s a way to save a significant amount of money on an Apple Watch<\/a> by opting for an older refurbished model, and Wowcher has one available as part of its early Black Friday deals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bargain hunters who visit the Wowcher site can find either Apple Watch Series 5<\/a> or Series 6 devices<\/a> starting from just \u00a389 – that’s nearly \u00a3111 off the full price of \u00a3199.95. Equipped with most of the essential features you’d find on a brand new Apple Watch, these are an excellent way to experience Apple’s wearable tech without paying full price.<\/p>\n

The models up for grabs are refurbished, meaning they’ve had a previous owner. However, they’ve been restored to their former glory and should still function as intended, albeit with a few cosmetic marks here and there.<\/p>\n

The Apple Watch Series 5<\/a> launched in 2019 with it being the first Apple Watch to feature an always-on display. Consequently, this means the wearer can constantly view the time on the screen without needing to perform that awkward wrist movement to activate the display.<\/p>\n

It also maintains many of the identical health monitoring capabilities you’d anticipate from a smartwatch, including heart rate and exercise tracking. A GPS sensor is also integrated, ideal for those who log their workouts and share them to Strava.<\/p>\n

Customers who’d rather purchase a brand new timepiece instead of a refurbished model might choose to select something like the Garmin Forerunner 255<\/a>. This fitness tracker is far more tailored for athletic training, and also features a 14 day battery life – it’s presently available for \u00a3199.99, reduced from \u00a3299.99.<\/p>\n

There’s also this smart watch from Cillso<\/a>, which is currently a number one bestseller at Amazon. Able to handle calls and monitor health data, it’s presently available for \u00a323.99, reduced from \u00a3129.99, reports the Manchester Evening News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Customers who purchased a refurbished Apple Watch Series 5<\/a> from Amazon were delighted, commenting: “Bought this for my partner and he thinks it’s a brand new watch. It came in the packaged box like a new one and does everything a new Apple Watch would.”<\/p>\n

A second shopper adds: “Excellent condition and exactly what If hoped to receive as a refurbished product. Very pleased.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a third reviewer writes: “My Apple Watch Series 5 was in excellent condition, with only 2 tiny very minor scratches, basically as good as new. The only downside is that the strap provided isn’t an original apple strap and is quite flimsy in comparison, so this may have to be changed in the future.”<\/p>\n

It’s worth noting that the Wowcher refurbished devices<\/a> are fulfilled by Renew Electronics, which has some questionable reviews on Trustpilot. There are some five star write-ups, like this review from Chris: “Can’t really fault them.. ordered a “good” Apple Watch Series 4, arrived a few days later than it advised but I think that was a Royal Mail issue, customer service good and helpful, quite a small deep scratch on the screen which you can’t see when lit. Overall pretty good.”<\/p>\n

However, there are a few negative reviews that caution shoppers that not every refurbished device has the same standard of quality: “Received watch nice and quick battery life is ok but watch has a deep scratch on face and also no charger cable. For the money it’s ok.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple Watches are a great way to track your fitness and monitor your health, and they’re currently on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":243702,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[786,102,1758,86,53491,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-243701","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gadgets","8":"tag-gadgets","9":"tag-health","10":"tag-shopping","11":"tag-technology","12":"tag-top-tech","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom","15":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243701","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=243701"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243701\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/243702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243701"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=243701"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=243701"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
