If you've had your eye on the new Apple Watch Series 10, then now’s your chance to snag one because it’s currently discounted in Amazon’s Black Friday sale.

The Apple Watch 10, considered by many as one of the premium smartwatches on the circuit, was only released in September.

The fast-charging watch is considered the tech giant’s thinnest and most comfortable iteration yet.

Not only can wearers gain valuable health and fitness insights, but they can get a handle on how much they’re moving with the iconic Activity Rings app, stay connected with friends on the move and track swims up to 50m underwater.

The on-sale smartwatch also has GPS connectivity and a state-of-the-art heart rate monitor.

This software allows wearers to take an electrocardiogram (ECG) whenever they feel like they need one.

Push notifications will also let you know whether you’re experiencing an irregular heart rhythm day or night.

What are reviewers saying about the Apple Watch series 10?

The incredible Apple Watch Series 10 has received rave reviews online from purchasers and tech wizzs alike.

“[Very] happy with this product,” wrote one Feefo reviewer. “Feels like a huge upgrade from Watch 8.”

Meanwhile, an Amazon reviewer typed: “My first Apple Watch. Love the synergy with my iPhone.

“Switched from my Fitbit and getting used to this fitness tracker-so far, so good. The price paid was half of what my carrier was charging, so great value for the money. Absolutely LOVE the rose gold color.”

Another commented: “I like the reduced thickness of the face and expanded face size/pixel area of Watch 10. I know that [standard] battery life is 18 hours, but happy that does better than that if you were while sleeping.”

“This watch was a gift for my wife who is not a techie. She is using it for her PT after hip replacement,” someone else gushed. “Like all Apple products it works flawlessly. I may have to upgrade my Apple after seeing her success. Awesome product well worth the investment.”

What else do I need to know about buying the Apple Watch Series 10?

According to the retailer, the Apple Watch Series 10 is superior in a number of ways, including possessing the largest display to date.

It has 30 percent more screen area than the Series 4, 5, 6 and SE and has a staggering 75 percent more than the Series 3.

The wearable also featured advanced sensors that can apparently track or diagnose sleep apnoea, locate the oxygen levels in your blood and detect sudden falls and crashes.

If your watch registers your accident, it will connect you to emergency services when necessary, too.

Previously some Apple Watches have faced scrutiny for slow charging times. But you’ll be pleased to hear that’s now a thing of the past, as faster charging ‘gives users 80 percent battery in about 30 minutes’.

What colorways of the Apple Watch Series 10 are in the Amazon Black Friday deal?

This particular $359 sale benefits the 46mm Jet Black Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band colorway, as well as the Rose Gold and Silver versions.

It’s also worth mentioning Apple products rarely get discounted on Black Friday and other subsequent festive-centered sales.

So, it’s always worth snapping up a discount when it’s ripe for the taking.
