Apple\u2019s announcement of the Apple Watch 7 was slightly vague in one respect, stating that the new wearable would be available \u201clater this fall\u201d. No exact release date was provided, and pre-order is not yet available. However, its imminent release does increase the likelihood of some great Apple Watch 6 deals across Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n When we compared Apple\u2019s newest watch with the Series 6, following the company\u2019s recent reveal event, we noted that there were not as quite many differences between the two models as had been expected. For the full comparison, read our Apple Watch 7 vs Apple Watch 6<\/a> breakdown.<\/p>\n We\u2019ll have to wait until we get our hands on the Apple Watch Series 7 to say for sure, but at first glance, it seems that the newest wearable from Apple is a slight upgrade rather than a full-scale overhaul. That being the case, many potential buyers may still be happy with the slightly older Series 6, especially if there are bargains to be had on the Apple Watch 6 across Black Friday and Cyber Monday.<\/p>\n When choosing between different models of Apple watch, it\u2019s worth weighing up how much you\u2019re willing to spend and exactly what features you need. With this information in mind, you\u2019re much more likely to find your perfect wearable this Black Friday. Stay tuned for our best Black Friday smartwatch deals<\/a>.<\/p>\n This year, the coinciding arrival of a new Apple watch and the Black Friday sales could make for some particularly appetising price drops on previous generations of Apple wearables.<\/p>\n While this is unlikely to affect the price of a brand new Apple Watch 7, we\u2019re expecting to see some retailers offer lower prices on the Apple Watch 6, the Apple Watch SE<\/a> and older models too. As a result, it seems the smartest bet to hold out until Black Friday until making your purchase.<\/p>\n Right now, you can buy an Apple Watch 6 for around \u00a3355, while the Apple Watch 7 will cost \u00a3379 when it\u2019s released \u201clater this fall\u201d.<\/p>\n In our full Apple Watch 6 review<\/a>, we gave Apple\u2019s last-gen wearable a four-and-a-half star rating, making it one of the most impressive pieces of wearable tech out there. Only a year on, it still stands up very well in the wearables market, and if prices are slashed this Black Friday, it will be a hugely appealing purchase for anyone looking for a new smartwatch.<\/p>\n Last year we saw the Apple Watch Series 5 plummet from \u00a3499 to \u00a3386 as part of Amazon\u2019s Black Friday sale. Elsewhere, the Apple Watch Series 3, with a 42mm display and GPS, went as low as \u00a380 on Very.com.<\/p>\n If we see equivalent price cuts this year, there are bound to be some temptingly priced Apple watches around. Particularly the Apple Watch SE, which currently retails at around \u00a3269. We may see this dip appetisingly below the \u00a3200-mark.<\/p>\n Keep an eye on the site for all the best Black Friday smartwatch deals<\/a> as the big sale approaches. We\u2019ll be updating you regularly on the best deals across a huge range of retailers and products.<\/p>\n Black Friday itself is the 26th of November, with Cyber Monday 2021<\/a> following shortly afterwards on the 29th.<\/p>\n Some retailers may make a head start on the deals before Black Friday itself, keen to attract attention away from the competition, so it\u2019s worth keeping an eye on a few retailers before the official start of the event. However, the very best deals will be saved for Black Friday itself.<\/p>\n When the sales get underway, there will be a huge amount of online retailers offering deals across an equally huge range of consumer tech. Not to worry though, we\u2019re going to be keeping you updated on all the very best deals that Black Friday and Cyber Monday have to offer.
