Today only, Woot is discounting the previous-generation Apple Watch Series 6 40mm GPS style to $279.99 in the (PRODUCT)RED colorway. Shipping is free for Prime members, with an expected $6 fee otherwise. Normally fetching $399, this is the first new condition price cut we’ve seen all year and now sits at within $30 of the refurbished offers we’ve been seeing as of late. This is $119 in savings regardless and a rare chance to save if you don’t mind going with the limited colorway selection.
While this might not be the latest wearable from Apple, going with Apple Watch Series 6 doesn’t mean you’ll be sacrificing all too much. Aside from the main improvements of a refreshed case and larger screen, Series 6 and 7 models share the same processor alongside a matching array of blood oxygen, heart rate, and other fitness sensors. Both run watchOS 8, too! So for those who don’t need the latest and greatest, going with the Apple Watch Series 6 delivers plenty of savings. Head below for more.

As far as other Apple discounts go now that we’re halfway through the week, most of the savings are dominated by price cuts on the latest MacBooks.

Though if you’d prefer going with a newer model that isn’t quite as powerful, the just-released M2 MacBook Pro is back in stock at the all-time low of $1,234.
