'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards.

Best Cyber Monday carrier deals

While many of the Apple Watch deals we've found require a device to be purchased outright, some US carriers have launched sales of their own, with Apple Watches either on offer for free or cheaply, in return for signing up for a subscription service. Here are the best deals we've found:

AT&T

Using the phrase "bye one, gift one," AT&T is offering customers a free (equivalent) Apple Watch SE with an Apple Watch purchase. You will need to buy two Apple Watches on an installment plan, add at least one new line, and activate both devices. You then receive up to $330 in bill credits.

T-Mobile

T-Mobile has a range of Apple Watch offers. Among the deals is a $100 discount off the Series 8 with a new line activation; you can pick up an Apple Watch SE (2nd-gen) for $99 with a new line, and you can have an Apple Watch SE1/SE2 for free with an iPhone purchase.

Sprint

Sprint, which is part of T-Mobile, is also offering $100 off Apple Watch devices, the Apple Watch Series 8 or Apple Watch Ultra, when you activate a line on a qualifying plan.

Spectrum Mobile

The carrier is offering customers three months of Smartwatch Access for free with an Apple Watch purchase.

How did we choose these Cyber Monday Apple Watch deals?

With so many retailers jumping on the Black Friday and Cyber Monday bandwagon, it can be hard to move from store to store and find the best deal on the product you want.

We've scoured the web for the best deals we can find on Apple Watch products and will continue to keep an eye on price trackers, legacy sales, and whether or not retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart are competing amongst themselves with price drops.

Apple Watch products do not appear on sale as often as many other smart watches, but when they do, we will try to find the best deals available to suit different budgets -- and this may include renewed models.
