SAVE $100: As of Dec. 8, select configurations of the Apple Watch Series 5 are on sale for as low as $299 at Best Buy and Amazon.
For the entire Apple offers we discovered all through Black Friday and Cyber Monday — and belief us, there were a ton — we did not see final yr’s Mashable’s Choice Award-winning Apple Watch Sequence 5 go on sale as soon as. Come to consider it, we did not even see a product web page for it go up on Amazon or Best Buy. It was listed as offered out, it wasn’t “unavailable” — it was similar to it by no means existed.
Lo and behold, the Sequence 5 has made a triumphant return at each retailers as of Dec. 8, and it is on sale with an all-time-high low cost as well. (It nonetheless does not get a point out on Amazon’s Apple model landing page, however we suppose we’ll let that slide.) Each sizes of each configurations are actually $100 off, making it as cheap as $299 should you go for the 40mm mannequin with simply GPS.

Why the Sequence 5 erasure, then? The one purpose we are able to consider (and that is simply pure hypothesis) is as a result of it is successfully an identical to this yr’s all-new Apple Watch Sequence 6, apart from the kind-of-underwhelming additions of an up to date processor and an SpO2 sensor for measuring blood oxygen ranges.
“The Sequence 6 carries over all the identical options from its predecessor,” Mashable tech reporter Brenda Stolyar wrote in her review, “together with an always-on show, ECG sensor, fall detection, excessive/low heart-rate notifications, Emergency SOS, and extra.”
If this new sale pricing hangs round, we expect it is honest to argue that the Sequence 5 finally ends up being a a lot better worth for the cash — no must improve to the “newest and best.” You may take your choose from the next configurations (word that the 40mm and mobile variations are solely accessible at Best Buy):
