The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is the cheapest I’ve ever seen, thanks to this enormous discount

I've spent the last six weeks putting a range of smartwatches and fitness trackers through their paces, so you better believe this offer caught my eye. You can currently buy the Apple Watch Ultra 2 from Amazon for $549 (was $799).

Not only is that a huge $250 discount, but it brings it down to its lowest price ever, even lower than its previous low of $599, which it hit on Cyber Monday at the beginning of December. And that price gives you two different options: either the Ultra 2 with Blue/Black Trail Loop or the Indigo Alpine Loop.

I've spent the last six weeks or so using this watch for its health-tracking features, and I can tell you I fully concur with our 4.5-star Apple Watch Ultra 2 review. Compared with some of the smartwatches I've used in the past, I've found the sheer number of metrics the Ultra 2 can track to be staggering, whether I've been tracking my climbing sessions, monitoring sleep breathing disturbances, or just keeping an eye on my heart health.

Yes, you can now pick up the Apple Watch Ultra 3. But not only does the Ultra 2 get this seriously generous discount,but it's also gotten some of its successor's health and fitness tracking upgrades, like the upgraded Sleep Score functionality. Personally, I've found this definitely adds new insight into how well I've slept, so these little quality-of-life upgrades keep the Ultra 2 well worth it.
