"Apple Watch Series 10 Under $300: Brand New Deal"

Amazon is currently offering an incredible deal on the Apple Watch Series 10, with the 42mm model available for just $299 and the 46mm model for $329.

The Apple Watch Series 10 represents the latest mainstream model, with the Series 11 not expected until September. Compared to the Apple Watch Series 9, the Series 10 features a larger OLED Retina display, a new S10 processor that's thinner for a slimmer watch profile, a slightly larger base model size (42mm vs. 41mm), and minor enhancements like a water depth gauge. If you're already using an Apple Watch Series 9, the upgrade might not be compelling enough. However, for first-time buyers, the Series 10 is the best Apple Watch option for most people.

When compared to the Apple Watch SE, the Series 10 offers a larger size (42mm vs. 40mm), a bigger display with Always-On functionality, a 30% more powerful processor, double the storage, advanced fitness and body monitoring sensors, double-tap gesture support, and faster charging. While the Apple Watch SE is more budget-friendly at $199 on Amazon, the Series 10's upgrades justify the additional cost for most users.

Can You Use an Apple Watch with Android Phones?

Although it's technically possible to pair an Apple Watch with an Android phone, we strongly advise against it. Apple designed the watch to work seamlessly with iOS, meaning many of its features require an iPhone. While there are workarounds to access some functionality, the effort involved isn't worth it for most users. If you're set on getting an Apple Watch, consider purchasing an iPhone first. For those content with their Android smartphones, there are plenty of excellent Android smartwatches that would be a better match.
