Time is running out for those looking to get their hands on Apple’s latest smartwatch offerings. As of December 21st at 3 pm ET, Apple will be hitting the pause button on sales of their popular Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 due to an ongoing patent dispute.
This leaves potential buyers with just hours left to grab one of these cutting-edge wearables before stock runs dry across Apple and third-party retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. The good news is that many models are still readily available for purchase — and many are even on sale.
Savvy shoppers can currently pick up a 41mm GPS Apple Watch Series 9 for as low as $329 direct from Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. That’s a healthy $70 off Apple’s list price. The more advanced Apple Watch Ultra 2 is also seeing discounts upwards of $69 when you clip the on-page coupon at Amazon.
- Apple Watch Series 9 (41mm, GPS) — $329 at Amazon / Walmart / Best Buy
- Apple Watch Series 9 (45mm, GPS) — $359 at Amazon / Walmart / Best Buy
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 (49mm, Cellular) — $730 at Amazon / $749 at Best Buy
So why should smartwatch shoppers act now on these deals instead of waiting out the patent litigation? Well, both the Series 9 and Ultra 2 pack significant upgrades that enhance their utility as fitness companions and iPhone peripherals.
The Series 9 delivers Apple’s new S9 processor that enables smooth operation, always-on display capabilities, enhanced sensors, and twice the screen brightness of the Series 8.
Meanwhile the rugged, outdoors-focused Ultra 2 ramps things up even further with a larger, brighter display and massive battery life rated up to 60 hours. There’s also the new customizable Action Button which can be set to instantly start a workout, mark your location, activate a siren, and much more.
With the fluid watchOS interface, best-in-class health and activity tracking capabilities, tight iPhone integration, and advanced safety features like fall and crash detection, Apple continues to dominate the smartwatch landscape. So don’t let this temporary sales ban stop you from strapping one of these wearable wonders onto your wrist. Shop now before time runs out!
