The Apple Watch Series 10 makes a great gift – and it's $349 for the first time ahead of Black Friday
Black Friday is still a week away, but some retailers are offering seasonal savings right now. The new Apple Watch Series 10 is one product already seeing holiday savings. The Watch Series 10 is on sale for $349 at Walmart — a discount of $50, the biggest drop we’ve seen since it was released back in September.
Also: The best Black Friday deals so far
The price drop, part of Walmart’s Black Friday Deals event, first went live for Walmart+ members and later the general public on Nov. 11, but this first-time deal on the latest watch is still live, and is sure to be popular ahead of upcoming Black Friday sales. Walmart will be kicking off two other Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, both which include early access for Walmart+ members. If you aren’t a Walmart+ member yet, you’re in luck. Annual Walmart+ subscriptions are on sale for $49 (or 50% off) through Dec. 2.
Plus, if you’d prefer to shop savings elsewhere, Amazon has the same $349 offer on select Series 10 models. Best Buy does not have any active Series 10 offers as of publication of this deal.
The newest Apple Watch Series 10 is a step up from last year’s Series 9, and is the best model you can buy behind the Apple Watch Ultra 2.

This year is the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch Series, and Apple gave the Series 10 a new look to celebrate. The Series 10 has a larger screen size and thinner build, a new sleep apnea detection feature, and a new finish. ZDNET’s Matthew Miller tested the Watch Series 10 in October and was pretty impressed with its latest features.
“After trying the new Jet Black 46mm Apple Watch Series 10, I wouldn’t go as far as to say it beats the Watch Ultra 2, but the newer model certainly offers compelling features that will likely appeal to most users. Here’s what I liked about the latest Apple Watch and what could be done better going into next year,” Miller says in his review.
If you’re looking to get or gift the Watch Series 10 this holiday season, don’t miss a chance to snag the best early Black Friday savings we’ve seen thus far on this model right now.
Walmart will host a series of staggered Black Friday Deals events in November, starting with its first event kicking off on Nov. 11. Early Black Friday sales will include early access for paid Walmart+ members, new surprise deal drops, and a beta test of its new generative AI shopping assistant this year. Walmart’s in-store hours are from 6 a.m.- 11 p.m., with no indications of expanded hours for the holiday shopping season. Walmart will additionally be closed on Thanksgiving. Here’s all the details on Walmart’s upcoming Black Friday sale events:
- Event 1: Deals begin online Monday, Nov. 11 at 12 p.m. ET for Walmart+ members, at 5 p.m. ET for all customers and in stores Friday, Nov. 15 at 6 a.m. local time.
- Event 2: Deals begin online Monday, Nov. 25 at 12 p.m. ET for Walmart+ members, at 5 p.m. ET for all customers and in stores Friday, Nov. 29 at 6 a.m. local time. Live soon
- Cyber Monday: Deals begin Sunday, Dec. 1 at 5 p.m. ET for Walmart+ members and 8 p.m. ET for all customers on Walmart.com and the Walmart app. (Walmart+ members will receive early access three hours early).
Annual Walmart+ subscriptions are on sale for $49 (or 50% off) through Dec. 2 to snag new subscribers ahead of the sale events, and most items purchased at Walmart now through Dec. 31 can be returned until Jan. 31, 2025 under Walmart’s extended holiday return policy.
Walmart’s Black Friday Deals event will be ongoing throughout the month, but it’s broken up into three main events. See the details above for dates and timing.
