Apple Watch Series 9 price slashed by $70

UPDATE: Memorial Day may be over, but this Apple Watch 9 deal is still running. It's actually not quite as good as it was over Memorial Day, but it remains the best right now, and well worth a look.

Right now, top of the pile of Apple Watch deals is the GPS version of the Apple Watch Series 9, reduced from $399 to $329 – that's $70 off at Best Buy.

And that is currently the only deal that Best Buy are offering right now. As Memorial Day was yesterday, I have a feeling that this deal won't be around for too much longer.

The Series 9 was released in September, and we gave it a 4.5-star review. We particularly praised the brighter screen and the addition of the ingenious new double-tap feature for quicker control of the device.
