Of course, if your budget doesn’t stretch that far, theApple Watch Series 3is a fantastic alternative. It’s armed with nearly the same skillset as the Apple Watch Series 5. Both monitor heart health, record steps, and have all the same core functions of asmartwatch— notification mirroring and so on.
The main differences? The Apple Watch Series 5 has a larger screen that can be set to stay on at all times, an electrical heart sensor that can take ECGs, and automatic fall detection. It also has a compass built in, comes with a newer, faster processor, and lasts for a fair bit longer on a single charge.
The fact of the matter is you can’t go wrong with either of these smartwatches. They’re both absolute bargains at they’re respective price points. Although if you’re torn between the two, we’d have to side with the Apple Watch Series 5. It’s the latest model and, frankly, $100 off is bonkers.
Not a fan of the Apple Watch? There are plenty of otherMemorial Day saleshappening right now that see everything from theGarmin Fenix 6S Proto theSamsung Galaxy Watch Active 2in the bargain bin. Our recommendation? REI has theGarmin Forerunner 45S for $150, down $50 from the usual $200.
