Want a watch with a larger screen? The 44mm model is also on sale for $384.99. That's $44 off and the best price we've seen for this model. It's available at this price with the White or Pink Sport Band.

The Apple Watch Series 5 sports an always-on display and Apple's latest S5 processor. In our Apple Watch Series 5 review, the watch got a near-perfect rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars for its useful compass and impressive watchOS 6 software.

In terms of battery life, the Apple Watch Series 5's always-on display doesn't seem to be much of a battery drain. After a full 14-hour day of moderate Apple Watch use, we were down to 10 percent battery life. 

For Series 4 owners, installing watchOS 6 will deliver many of the best new features. But if you don't own an Apple Watch or if you a Series 3 owner, this cheap Apple Watch deal is well worth it.
