If you want to pick up the Apple Watch SE and save a bit of cash while you’re at it, you’ve come to the right place. We’re looking at all the best deals on Apple’s most affordable Watch this April. Currently, you’ll find discounts on new, refurbished, and LTE models on contract.
Apple announced the Watch SE at its Time Flies event in September 2020 alongside the Watch Series 6.
Keeping in line with Apple’s SE range ‘lite’ ethos, the Watch SE offers simplified features while doing away with high-end features like the always-on display. Wondering whether to buy the SE or the Apple Watch 3? Read: Apple Watch SE and Series 3.
It’s been well over a year since the Watch SE launched, so there are plenty of discounts around.
In fact, with the launch of the Apple Watch Series 7, Apple also reduced the starting price of the Watch SE by £20 in the UK. Check out the best Apple Watch 7 deals here.
Here we’re looking at the Apple Watch SE pricing, models, and where you can pick one up at the best price this April.
