Deals on either theApple Watch Series 9and Ultra 2 are similar to what you’ll find for the iPhone 15, but the numbers are a bit lower, as the smartwatches aren’t priced quite as high as the smartphones.

With the Apple Watch Series 9 priced at $399 (GPS only) and $499 (GPS with cellular), and the Apple Watch Ultra 2 set at $799, that potential $60 to $380 could make a pretty sizable dent. However, much of it depends on whether or not you have an older device in good condition to give up in exchange.
