The Apple Watch SE 2 is a budget-friendly option for getting Apple’s wearable device on your wrist, and it’s even more affordable right now with this offer from Walmart. The GPS, 40mm model, originally sold for $249, is on sale for just $169, but you should hurry. There’s always the risk of missing out an Apple deals because they always attract so much attention, and we don’t expect this case to be different — proceed with your purchase immediately to make sure that you grab the savings of $80.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch SE 2

While there are rumors that the Apple Watch SE 3 is on its way, the Apple Watch SE 2 is still a solid purchase, especially with this discount from Walmart. With a score of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars in our review, we described the wearable device as simple but brilliant. The smartwatch will pair with your iPhone so that you can receive notifications, send text messages, call for Apple’s Siri, and more on your wrist. The Apple Watch SE 2 is comfortable to wear, so you can maximize its long battery life of up to 18 hours from a full charge.

The Apple Watch SE 2 also offers comprehensive fitness tracking features, as well as safety features such as fall detection, crash detection, and emergency SOS. The wearable device offers water resistance up to depths of 50 meters, making it a great swimming buddy, and it’s also customizable — choose between various watch faces and swap out watch bands to match your personality. The Apple Watch SE 2 ships with watchOS 9, but you can upgrade it to watchOS 11 right after you unbox.

Walmart is a great source for smartwatch deals, and it’s currently offering an $80 discount on the GPS, 40mm model of the Apple Watch SE 2. From its sticker price of $249, it’s available for only $169, but there’s no assurance that it will still be available tomorrow because of the demand for Apple Watch deals. If you’re interested in taking advantage of this bargain, you’ll have to complete your transaction for the Apple Watch SE 2 right now.

Wearable health trackers have become smaller, smarter and more capable over the years, but they've also remained surprisingly… boring. Whether it's a smartwatch, a chest strap or a sticky ECG patch, most health sensors still rely on bulky hardware that can peel off, irritate the skin or become less accurate once you start sweating. Additionally, there is a shift of technology from plastic wearables/trackers to clothes, which seemingly do the same thing as well. But that is not the story today.

Researchers at Penn State think they've found a far more elegant solution. Instead of sticking another sensor onto your skin, why not simply paint one?
