Here’s where you can buy the brand-new Apple Watch Series 5 right now

The Apple Watch Series 5 is now available online and in-store

While the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro may have stolen the show, Apple also released a new Apple Watch at its annual September event — the Apple Watch Series 5. The new device may not be a radical redesign like the Apple Watch Series 4 before it, but it still has a ton to offer and is the Apple Watch to buy if you’re in the market for a new smartwatch.

Of course, you might be wondering where you can get the Apple Watch Series 5 — which is exactly why we’ve written this guide. Here’s everything you need to know about pricing and availability of the Apple Watch Series 5.

Unlocked

The Apple Watch Series 5 is available from Apple, and now that pre-orders are over you can get it for yourself online and in-store. The Apple Watch Series 5 GPS model starts at $400, while the Apple Watch Series 5 cellular comes at $500. That said, if you want to get the Apple Watch  Series 5 in titanium or ceramic, you’ll pay a little more — the titanium model starts at $800, while the ceramic model starts at $1,300. Prices vary depending on whether or not you want cellular connectivity, which allows you to use your device essentially like a smartphone.

You can get the Apple Watch for yourself straight from the Apple website.

Carriers

As with previous iterations of the Apple Watch, can also get the Apple Watch Series 5 from your carrier. Carrier pricing for the device is available below.

Sprint

Sprint is carrying the Apple Watch Series 5, and pre-orders for the device on the carrier are now over. On Sprint, the Apple Watch Series 5 starts at $500 or $20.84 per month for 24 months, though Sprint is currently running a promotion that allows customers to get 50% off those monthly payments — so you could get the device for as little as $10.42 per month.

Not only that but for a limited time, if you get a new Apple Watch through Verizon, you can get a second one for half price.
