As you may have seen from our coverage this morning, today Best Buy launched a 24-hour Tech the Halls sale and one of the featured deals has a load of Apple Watch Ultra 2 models at $250 off. This is the price drop we spotted for Black Friday this year and quite a notable one when it comes to brand new units. It’s no Ultra 3, but it’s still a solid wearable and just about every configuration and color Best Buy and Amazon sells is now $250 off.
Apple Watch Ultra 2 carried, and by and large still does carry, the same $799 starting list price you’ll find on the Ultra 3. While Apple’s newest pro-grade wearables are seeing some slight deals on Amazon right now, there’s nothing approaching the $100 off we tracked for Black Friday this year. The Ultra 2 however, is heavily discounted ahead of the holidays right now with straight up $250 price drops now live at both major retailers on the Black and Natural Titanium case options with several bands at the ready as well:
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 black $550 (Reg. $799)
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 natural $550 (Reg. $799)
- Also matched at Amazon
Over at Best Buy, the $250 price drops also carry over to the more premium configuration that includes Apple’s Milanese Loop as well:
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 black $649 (Reg. $899)
- With Milanese Loop
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 natural $649 (Reg. $899)
- With Milanese Loop
Best Buy is listing these deals as a today only affair, so there’s no telling whether or not they will still be available tomorrow at $250 off.
Again, the Ultra 2 certainly isn’t the Ultra 3, but I for one will be sticking with the Ultra 2 for the time being, or at least until the price on the Ultra 3 drops significantly online. The now previous-generation model is still a perfectly capable wearable, one you can score for a whole lot less, and one that looks nearly identical anyway.
