Apple held its big event today for the next generation of devices coming in its smartphone and smartwatch lineups, and this includes the Apple Watch Series 10, which you can pre-order starting today or buy later this month. The company also announced a new Black Titanium color of the Apple Watch Ultra 2, which you can also pre-order starting today. The Apple Watch Series 10 is the bigger device out of the two since the Watch Ultra 2 isn’t really a new watch. That doesn’t take away from how good the new Black Titanium color looks, however, so if you’re as excited as we are for it, we’ve got you covered on how to place your pre-orders for it and/or the Apple Watch Series 10.
The Apple Watch Series 10 comes with quite a few notable upgrades including the new S10 chipset, the thinnest Watch Series body ever, the fastest charging ever, and many more improvements. If you’re looking to pre-order either of the new watches (you can also pre-order the new iPhone today), this handy guide will run you through where you can purchase one, and who has the best offers or pricing. So let’s get into it.
When does the Apple Watch Series 10 launch?
The Apple Watch Series 10 will officially launch on September 20, so there’s still a little over a week left before you can actually use it. The new Black Titanium Watch Ultra 2 will launch on the same day. As mentioned above, you can pre-order either watch starting today.
Where to pre-order/buy the Apple Watch Series 10
Apple’s smartwatches always end up being at a variety of retailers, and the Watch Series 10 as well as the Watch Ultra 2’s new color will be no different. That being said, here’s where you can pre-order the Apple Watch Series 10 and the new Black Titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2.
Apple
Naturally, you can pre-order these directly from Apple starting today. The Apple Watch Series 10 can be pre-ordered at a starting price of $399 for the GPS model, or $499 for the GPS + Cellular model. Apple is also selling a $699 Watch Series 10 that uses Titanium instead of Aluminum.
Both the GPS and GPS + Cellular models will have the same features across the board, save for the connectivity options. So unless you need the cellular connection, the GPS model should serve you just fine. It’s also worth noting that cellular connectivity won’t really be necessary if you always keep your phone on you anyway.
In terms of offers, you can get up to $365 for a trade-in if you want to trade in your older Apple Watch. How much you save will depend on the model and various other factors. That being said, if it’s a much older model, the savings are as little as $50. Either way, it’s still a discount.
Amazon
Amazon is another retailer where you can purchase the new Apple Watch Series 10. It has both the Aluminum case model in the 42mm and 46mm sizes, as well as the Titanium case model.
In terms of offers, Amazon does not have any special deals on the new Apple Watch Series 10. So you can expect to pay at least $399 if you go with the GPS model. Additionally, it’ll be $499 if you go with the GPS + Cellular model. The price also increases depending on if you choose the 42mm or 46mm size, or the Titanium case instead of Aluminum.
Best Buy
Like Amazon, Best Buy is also carrying the new Apple Watch Series 10. You can grab the new watch in both Aluminum and Titanium in their respective size options and with both the GPS and the GPS + Cellular models for the Aluminum variant.
The Titanium variant already comes in the GPS + Cellular model only, so you will automatically get both connectivity options going with it over the Aluminum one. Best Buy is also offering trade-in deals where you can save money on the purchase of the Apple Watch Series 10.
Where to pre-order/buy the Black Titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2
The new Apple Watch Ultra 2 color is also available for pre-order today, and just like with the Watch Series 10, it will be launching on September 20. If you want to get a head start on receiving the device, you’ll want to pre-order asap.
Apple
Naturally, Apple will be starting pre-orders for the new Watch Ultra 2 color right away. Just like with the Watch Series 10, you can trade in your old watch and get up to $365 in credit toward your new watch. Depending on the watch model, it can also be as low as $50 in credit. As for pricing, the Watch Ultra 2 in Black Titanium will cost $799, the same price as the original color option that launched last year.
Amazon
Amazon now sells the Apple Watch Ultra 2 in its new Black Titanium color so if you prefer to do your shopping on Amazon, you can add this to the list of things to pick up. Amazon only appears to have this with the Dark Green Alpine Loop right now, but it’s also selling the watch at a small discount. If you get the watch with the small-size Alpine Loop it’s $764. Jumping to the medium Alpine Loop increases the price to the full $799 price. Finally, getting it with the large-size Alpine Loop has it at a discount of $787.
It’s worth noting that these discounts may not last long. So jump on them quickly.
Best Buy
Best Buy is now carrying the Apple Watch Ultra 2 in its new Black Titanium color. It has a variety of band options to choose from as well. The watch retails for $799 and only comes in one size, which is 49mm. You can get this with the Milanese Loop band for $899, otherwise the Alpine Loop options are $799.
