Save $50: The Apple Watch SE 3<\/a> is the most affordable wearable in Apple’s lineup, and it’s now down to just $199 at Amazon<\/a>. That’s a $50 discount, bringing this model to the lowest price we’ve seen to date. We’re not sure how long it’s going to last, though.<\/p>\n

This special Prime Day deal<\/a> comes just a day before the sale officially kicks into gear, but we don’t expect this price to be beaten any time soon.<\/p>\n


\n This story is part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide to everything you need to know and how to find the best deals.

Even at full price, CNET smartwatch expert Vanessa Hand Orellana called the third-gen Apple Watch SE<\/a> a “$250 steal that delivers nearly everything you’d want from a wearable, with surprisingly few compromises.” So it’s a serious value any time you can pick one up for less than the regular price. <\/p>\n

The Apple Watch SE 3 comes equipped with the same S10 processor as the Series 11<\/a> and Ultra 3<\/a>. It also offers many of the same features, such as fast charging, 5G connectivity and new wellness tools.<\/p>\n

Plus, the vibrant 40mm display is always on, so you can check the time with a glance. Other useful features include onboard Siri, fall detection and a durable design that is water-resistant up to 50 meters.<\/p>\n
