Apple made a host of announcements late last evening through a virtual Apple Event. Unlike every other year, Apple did not announce a new iPhone lineup this September and unveiled four other devices instead - the Apple Watch Series 6, Apple Watch SE, the 8th generation iPad and a new iPad Air. Along with this the company also announced its new Apple One subscription bundle for all in-house services. For those still wondering about the iPhone 12 series, that's coming next month. 

While Apple revealed the US prices during the event, the Indian prices were announced soon after the event wrapped up. For those waiting impatiently to find out - here's exactly how much you are going to be paying for all these new gadgets:

Apple Watch Series 6

For the new Apple Watch Series 6 that is going to ship with blood oxygen detection feature, always-on altimeter, S6 SiP etc and watchOS 7, prices start at 40,900 for the GPS model. The Apple Watch Series 6 (GPS + Cellular) will set you back by 49,900.

Apple Watch SE

The “more affordable” Apple Watch SE comes with the S5 SiP and the same accelerometer, gyroscope, and always-on altimeter as Apple Watch Series 6, along with the latest motion sensors and microphone, health and safety capabilities and watchOS 7.
