Like most tech products, the Apple Watch has a basic model (the SE), a mid-tier model (the Series 10), and a high-end version (the Ultra 2). But the older Series 9 offers a sweet spot for those looking for a budget mid-tier option. The Series 9 offers many high-end features at a price that's closer to the price of the SE than the Ultra 2, and cheaper than the newer Series 10. Right now, the 45mm Apple Watch Series 9 is $370.99 for the GPS and Wifi version (originally $529), currently matching its lowest price since its release, according to price-checking tools.

If you're not sure whether the Series 9 is a better choice over the Ultra 2 or the Series 10, you can read our full breakdowns. Essentially, the Series 9 is a smaller watch with fewer features for outdoor enthusiasts than the Ultra 2. But if you want to save yourself a few hundred dollars and don't need a brighter screen or a more rugged design, the Series 9 is a great choice. PCMag gave the Series 9 an "outstanding" review for its powerful processor, the in-demand double-tap gesture for hands-free operation, access to Siri, and its bright display.

You can expect up to 18 hours of battery life (or 36 hours in low power mode), sleep tracking, mental health and vision health tools, additional cycling and compass features, and more. This GPS and cellular version means you can access your phone without the need of a wifi network. In other words, you'll be able to go on a run without your iPhone, play music on your AirPods, and take calls.

Right now, only the bigger 45mm sized screen is available for this deal, but the band size fits people with wrists from 140mm to 190mm.
