Good news for those looking to upgrade their wrist game: the latest Apple Watch Series 9 is $120 off right now for Black Friday. The do-it-all smartwatch can read emails, take and make calls, track steps and health and so much more. (Keep in mind that this isn’t the cellular version, which can call and text even when you’re not near your phone — this version requires you to be in the range of your iPhone or use Wi-Fi for those features).
Usually $399, it’s on sale right now at Amazon and Target for only $279. That’s a big discount on a highly sought-after piece of wearable tech, especially one that seamlessly integrates into the Apple ecosystem.
Typical call-taking, call-making and texting functions aside, the Apple Watch Series 9 has solid health features that set it apart from its predecessors. It has temperature sensing and advanced sleep tracking, but most notably, an app for tracking your heart rate that Apple claims can generate an ECG similar to a single‑lead electrocardiogram. The watch also uses AI to track risky health patterns and will send alerts to advise you to seek medical attention.
With its bright display and lengthy battery life, this could serve as your new daily wearable. “I recently upgraded to the Apple Watch Series 9, and I couldn’t be more impressed,” said Aryeh Wizman, who received hers as a Mother’s Day gift. “But it’s not just about looks — this watch is packed with features that make my life so much easier. The GPS functionality allows me to track my runs and hikes with pinpoint accuracy, while the heart rate monitor helps me keep tabs on my health and fitness goals. I love being able to receive notifications right on my wrist, so I never miss an important call or message, even when my phone is out of reach.”
If you need a handy wrist assistant, get the Apple Watch Series 9 while it’s on sale in black, navy or pink, and with a sweat-resistant band. Just hurry, because we can’t imagine this deal will last long.
“I have had an iwatch series 5 for several years. The series 9 is an upgrade. I purchased because it has features that are critical for seniors. I am 74 years old, and if I can set up this watch you can too. The only thing I don’t like is that when you put it on, a 4-digit code is to be entered…a safety feature, but rather annoying. I like everything else about this watch, and glad I purchased this upgrade. My series 5 watch still works perfectly, and I gave it to my niece. I did purchase a separate manual for the series 9, just to make sure I’m using all the features available. To be honest, I still haven’t opened the manual, and am using my watch just fine.” — Victoria

“I recently upgraded to the Apple Watch Series 9, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From its sleek design to its incredible functionality, this smartwatch has quickly become an essential part of my daily routine.First off, let’s talk about style. The pink aluminum case with the light pink sport band looks absolutely stunning on my wrist. It’s stylish enough to wear with any outfit, whether I’m hitting the gym or heading to a business meeting. Plus, the lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear all day long.But it’s not just about looks – this watch is packed with features that make my life so much easier. The GPS functionality allows me to track my runs and hikes with pinpoint accuracy, while the heart rate monitor helps me keep tabs on my health and fitness goals. I love being able to receive notifications right on my wrist, so I never miss an important call or message, even when my phone is out of reach.The battery life is impressive too. I can go a full day on a single charge with plenty of juice to spare, even with constant use. And when it does need to be charged, the magnetic charging cable makes it a breeze to power up.” — Aryeh Wizman (This review has been edited for length. Read the full review here.)

“I upgraded from a series 3 to this and I love it, well worth the money. It charges very fast and stays charged for a while. Connecting it when I got it was easy and quick, very painless. I have accidentally dinged it a few times and surprisingly have zero scratches to it at all which is great.” — Heather

“Got this for my husband for his birthday and he loves! He loves that he can take a quick glance at any incoming messages/emails, track his sleep and workouts and enjoy the customizable clock faces. The 45mm screen is also pretty big and perfect for a bigger arm. The only downside is the battery life is not amazing but definitely to be expected with all that functionality.” — Valerie Bekker
