There are several notable contract and carrier deals available for the Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Ultra 2 as of July 2025:
- AT&T offers a contract deal where you can save $300 off the total price when you buy two Apple Watches (such as the Apple Watch Ultra 2) on an installment plan. Both devices must be activated on a qualifying wireless plan, and the savings are provided as bill credits over 36 months[5].
- Verizon is offering up to $180 off the Apple Watch Ultra or Ultra 2 with the trade-in of an eligible device when you purchase with any Verizon data plan[5]. Their Apple Watch cellular plan typically runs at $15/month, but can be as low as $7.50/month if paired with a smartphone plan. Note, however, that there is also a $35 activation fee[4].
- T-Mobile allows you to add the Apple Watch to a new or existing plan for $12–$15 per month, plus a one-time $35 activation fee[4].
- Xfinity Mobile offers Apple Watch connectivity for $10/month. However, family setup is not supported, so the watch needs to be paired with an iPhone on the same account[4].
- US Mobile provides one of the most affordable Apple Watch plans, starting at $6.50/month (or included free with their Unlimited Premium plan). They also stand out for requiring no activation fee and offering unlimited data on premium options[2].
Trade-in deals can further lower your costs, with retailers like Best Buy offering up to $300 for qualifying trade-ins of older models when purchasing a new Apple Watch Ultra 2[1].
Discounted and refurbished Ultra deals are also available directly from Amazon or other retailers, with renewed first-generation Apple Watch Ultra units sometimes listed under $400, though these are not typically tied to carrier contracts[3].
If you are purchasing for family or child use, specialized cellular plans (including annual discounts up to 54% off) are available through providers like BetterRoaming, particularly beneficial if you are managing multiple devices or need international options[6].
