This Black Friday Apple Watch deal is an absolute steal — save nearly $300

November 14, 2021 OSTN Staff

Save $290: Having a smartwatch makes everything from checking messages to going for a run far more convenient. As of Nov. 13, this stainless steel Apple Watch Series 5 is on sale for $459 at Amazon.

Apple Watches boast a wide range of features that make it easier to monitor your health, listen to music, find your way around town, take calls, and — obviously — check the time.

The gold stainless steel Apple Watch Series 5 is currently on sale for an early Black Friday discount of 39% — very rare for an Apple product. If you’ve bought into the Apple ecosystem at all (i.e. own an iPhone), this snazzy watch will be a great addition.

It’s a couple generations old considering the Apple Watch Series 7 debuted earlier this year, but has most of the same features (battery life, storage, water resistance, health trackers except for Blood Oxygen) as newer models. The Series 5 was the first to have the Always-On Retina display, so that your watch face is always visible. It’s also got the App Store installed, so you can download apps directly into your watch without having to fuss with a laptop.

That’s if you even need to: the Series 5 comes with just about everything you’ll need to keep tabs on your health, workouts, and social life. Call, text, and email from your wrist; take an ECG or check your heart rate; listen to music, podcasts, and audiobooks without having to carry your phone around; find your location, altitude, and receive route guidance, and more.

This particular model of the Apple Watch Series 5 comes in stainless steel (the shiniest of finishes if you want that bling) with a sport band for maximum durability and scratch resistance. It’s lighter and significantly less expensive than the titanium model, yet more sophisticated and hardier than the aluminum — the perfect middle ground.

For a limited time, save $290 at Amazon — priced at just $459, this is a rare find.
