The first thing you need to do is pick your watch. Luckily, we have an extensive guide comparing the Apple Watch SE 2 and Apple Watch 9. To boil down something complex, the Apple Watch 9 is the technically better watch but if you aren’t a power user, you might prefer the SE 2, which is cheaper. The Apple Watch 9 has 2,000 nits of brightness to the SE 2’s 1,000, for example, making it easier to see in sunlight. It also has a low power mode that can essentially double its battery life. You’ll also get a whole host of extra sensors on the Apple Watch 9 for more robust health monitoring, though nothing essential is “missing” from the SE 2. Be sure to check out our Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch SE 2 reviews for a view of our lived experiences with the devices.

Next, you’ll need to make some purchasing decisions. Here’s where things get a bit tricky, as stock is limited. At the time of this writing, for example, when you initially click on the SE 2 you’ll see that the “GPS | Cellular” option is grayed out and listed as out of stock. This is misleading and is actually only the case when combined with the other settings. For example, if you bump the size up to 44mm, you’ll see that the cellular option is available and the plain GPS version is the one grayed out. In other words, if you find something you like, don’t give up immediately when an option appears out of stock.

To shop for your Apple Watch at Target, tap the button below. You’ll be able to pick from an Apple Watch SE 2 for $50 off or an Apple Watch 9 for $130 off. That makes the watches as low as $200 and $270, respectively, but they can still go up after you make configuration changes. Once you’re done, be sure to check out other Labor Day deals so you can find other good deals where this came from.

We review a lot of health wearables. This one tracks something most ignore.

We've discussed the Hume Band’s design ethos before; specifically, how its screen-free, fabric-wrapped profile respects your attention span. But for those who treat their health as a long-term asset, the form factor is secondary to the data.

Rokid’s AI glasses offer a more affordable route to wearables than Meta Ray-Ban

The AI Glasses Style is completely screenless and weighs just 38.5 grams, making it light enough to wear all day without discomfort. Instead of visual overlays, it relies on voice, audio, and a built-in 12MP Sony camera capable of shooting 4K video in clips up to 10 minutes.

Forget the watch, Apple’s AI Pin might be its next wearable move

According to the details shared so far, the wearable is still in the very early stages of development. In fact, Apple could launch it or even cancel it, depending on how engineering and market conditions evolve. That said, people familiar with the project say the company is targeting a 2027 release window, a move that would position Apple directly against other AI wearable efforts from competitors like OpenAI and others experimenting with similar form factors.
