The Short Version
Apple Watch Series 11 dropped $100 on Amazon as WWDC approaches, while Apple added Series 11 and Ultra 3 to its refurbished store for the first time.
WWDC kicks off next week, and Apple Watch Series 11 is already hitting all-time low prices on Amazon, down $100 across multiple models, while Apple quietly added Series 11, Ultra 3, and SE 3 to its refurbished store for the first time since their September launch. When a product starts showing up discounted and refurbished simultaneously, new hardware is close. Meanwhile, iFixit bought knockoff versions of the Ultra 3, AirPods Max 2, and AirPods Pro 3 in Shenzhen's counterfeit markets and tore them apart, which means fakes of products Apple hasn't even replaced yet are already in circulation.
