The 14 best early Black Friday smartwatch deals

ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy – devices and products we want, need or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or almost never on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how often it drops.

We also looked at customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we recommend. Our recommendations may also be based on our own tests – in addition to extensive research and comparison. The goal is to provide the most accurate advice so you can shop smarter.
