Deal is back on (previously posted deal)
$70 off all Apple Watch Series 10 and SE range. Excludes Titanium casing models.
Price match/beat with other stores if you have disdain for Harvey Norman.
Other retailers if you have Gift Cards to use:
The Good Guys
Officeworks
JB Hi-Fi
BIG W
Costco
How about Series 12 and beyond?
Will depend on the battery life…
Waiting for it to be > 24 hrs…
The series 10 battery life is hundreds of cycles, it would last years. So that's longer than 24 hours
Ahh the never ending loop. Wait until the series 11 is released and is on sale then the series 12 will be in the pipeline and it’ll best to wait for that.
wait until the battery life is practical…
Are you waiting for nerve pulse charging so you never have to take it off?
My series 3 still gets me through the waking hours (6am-11pm).
@Russell Dupsumtucka: That would be cool, but if you want your whole day tracked, then it’s gotta last more than 24h at least.
Same price in JB if you have gift card
Apple will price match up to 10% off RRP, so good if you combine with discounted Apple vouchers or credit
I assume this is in store only?
I called and placed an order just now
Called this afternoon and Apple only offers 10% off the RRP, which is eventually $584.1 for the 42mm GPS model.
Seems like most retailers have the same sale going on so plenty of options to buy from. Officeworks have already lowered their price so no PB.
Thx, I've added it to the list
Thank you! lodged price protection claim
o I read this wrong I thought it was 70 bucks for an apple watch.
Thanks! Finally some stock in Melbourne JB :)
Apple Watch SE or S10 for health and fitness tracking? Not fussed about notifications and so on..
Or should I get an S9
S9 refurbished from apple. Virtually no difference from S10 in day to day usage.
Avoid SE at all costs.
Given Refurb S9 is $489 I would jump on the S10 for a brighter screen, better display, lighter weight and two year warranty. (Refurb only has one year)
BTW, as a tradition, Refurb 10 will be available in two months so… the decision is yours.
What if you want cellular for a kid?
What’s the problem with SE?
If I price beat Costco can get S10 for 530ish. Is that cheaper than what refurbished would be?
The excitement i got for a few seconds seeing an apple watch for $70 :(
So my wife and I literally bought a series 10 each yesterday from JB…anyone ever received credit from them when this happens?
anyone ever received credit from them when this happens?
Have you checked their policies?
There are reports saying they do it but can't find a policy. Currently in live chat queue.
I got a partial refund. This happened with me over a tv.
I just bought one yesterday too for my dad’s birthday. I went on live chat and asked for the $70 price difference but got told no due to them not having a price guarantee policy, which was flat out incorrect since they do have one. Rather than argue with the inept agent, I called my local JB up and they said they’d be happy to give me the refund. Went in without the device, only got told to bring my digital invoice with me, and the staff at checkout issued the refund (takes a week to come back to you).
I bought mine online and only did click and collect at the store yesterday, so thought the refund request would need to be done online. But yeah, go straight to the store.
@Isho: Where is this policy? It isn't anywhere on the website. I would think it's something entirely up to the store staff member/manager's discretion.
@dm02: Not on their website, but article that discusses it - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/lifehacks/article-1178651…
Staff at counter said the 14 day applies to goods purchased in-store from the date purchased, and from the point of delivery received if you’re getting any goods delivered to you.
Some Credit Cards have price protection that refunds you the difference.
I was so close to publishing another deal for the SE 40mm for $239 (Midnight Aluminium only) via JB HiFi Business site but they ninja fixed the price back to $329. Shakes fists
Sad I missed this deal. Asked JB Hi-Fi if they’d beat the Officeworks $377 for the SE 44mm. They offered me $375.50 :(
can someone please tell me the easiest way I can get the cellular to work with a family setup with it's own number without being tethered to a phone's
number.
Better Roaming is your only option. My son’s had this for his stand alone Apple Watch since 2022.

what's ur user experience been like? speed ok?
We’ve had no problems at all. Seamless experience
We don't have an IPhone, but have an iPad. Do you know if the watch can be set up with that instead? The plan looks like something we are after for when our daughter goes back to school.
The Watch app isn’t available on the iPad I’m pretty sure, you’d need an iPhone to set it up.
No, you can't set up an Apple Watch with an iPad:
The Apple Watch is designed to work with an iPhone and the Watch app on the iPhone.
Is this overkill as a sleep tracker? I heard the Apple Watch has improved at sleep tracking a lot, other option being the Fitbit Charge 6…
Man I wish flybuys would price match!
Harvey Norman is the Internet Explorer of retail shops. Purely used for price beating
More akin to befriending the (subjectively) ugly one just to get to the hot friends
Can I do click and collect at Officeworks and pay with Celebration gift cards? It shows out of stock in store near where I live.
I'm waiting for the series 11 before I take the plunge… Series 10 is last year's model.
