We found the best Apple Watch deals on Amazon ahead of Amazon Prime Day 2022.

Apple Watch Series 7 (41 mm): $284

Right now, you can save on the GPS version of the 41 mm Apple Watch Series 7. At Apple, the model lists for $399 -- and up. On Amazon, prices and availability may vary depending on the color of the watch. We also saw a deal on the 41 mm watch with GPS and built-in cellular.

Apple Watch Series 6 (40 mm) (refurbished): $330

The predecessor of the Apple Watch Series 7, the Apple Watch Series 6 comes in two cases sizes: 40 mm and 44 mm (versus 41 mm and 45 mm for the Series 7). Its always-on display is brighter than that of the less-expensive Apple Watch 3.

Apple itself no longer sells the Apple Watch Series 6, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a brand-new, in-package model that's cheaper than Amazon's price on the state-of-the-art Apple Watch Series 7. But if you're willing to go for a refurbished watch, then you can find Apple Watch Series 6 deals on Amazon. Prices may vary by color.

Apple AirPods (2nd generation): $100

Just about anyone will love these budget-minded Apple AirPods. They're not the latest model, but they're still one of the most sought-after earbud models on the market.

Upgrade your old AirPods to the Apple AirPods Pro. Compared to older models, these AirPods fit active noise cancelation technology, water resistance and hearing health tracking in a more-compact, better-fitting design. They're also lauded for their great sound quality. But all this quality comes at a steep price -- specifically $250. That's why the deal we found at Amazon is a big deal.

Now at $170, the Apple AirPods Pro are a great deal for those with some flexibility in their budget.
