The Apple Watch Series 3 is the biggest upgrade to Apple’s wearable since the original came out. The Series 3 comes with built-in LTE as an option. It also packs a dual-core S3 processor and W2 chip for faster Wi-Fi.
While Apple Watch Series 3 is not without problems, it’s the best smartwatch on the market.
Apple Watch Series 3 vs. Series 1
Want to buy an Apple Watch, but not sure which model makes the most sense? Read our explainer: Apple Watch Series 3 vs. Series 1: Which one is right for you?
Apple currently sells only one refurbished Series 1 watch model, the 38mm rose gold aluminum with pink sand Sport Band.
If you want one, you should act now. Refurbished units are usually in limited supply and can sell out quickly. They come with a full warranty and are rated to perform just as well as non-refurbished units, so you get all the perks at a nice discount.
