Apple Watch Series 11 deals are heating up as retailers court New-Year wellness crowds. The entry-level 42 mm model normally starts at $399, but several stores have slashed prices and stacked bonuses on top.
Current Price Drops
Walmart and Amazon list the watch at $299, a straight $100 savings. Target matches the markdown and tacks on an extra 5% when you pay with a Target Circle Card.
Best Buy keeps the sticker at $399 but adds incentives:
- Up to $335 back with an eligible trade-in
- 3% Daily Cash when you buy with an Apple Card
- Four free months of Apple Fitness+ for new subscribers
- Three free months of Apple Music
Apple’s own store mirrors the trade-in range-$25 to $335-and throws in identical trial periods for Fitness+ and Music.
Carrier Deals
Verizon spreads up to $300 in trade-in credits across 36 months, shrinking the monthly cost to roughly $6. Add a watch line with an iPhone 17 purchase and the watch itself is free via bill credits.
AT&T supplies $100 off over 36 months, plus another $100 if you bundle select iPhone 17 models. Trade-ins can chip away even more.
