I currently wear this watch everyday and have since purchased. I have changed the band on occasion but still use the original with no damage. I enjoy closing my daily rings and hitting my goals. There are a lot of features that I still do not use, but would love to explore more about my watch. I would recommend this watch to friends and family. I do not use a screen protector on my watch and I do have a couple of minor scratches, but I am impressed with how durable it is after accidentally smacking it on things before.

My review on this fantastic device.
Let me start by saying that the Apple Watch SE is a true gem. It combines style, functionality, and affordability in a way that is hard to beat. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast, a tech lover, or simply someone who wants to stay connected, this watch has something for everyone.
One of the standout features of the Apple Watch SE is its stunning design. The sleek and modern look of the watch is sure to turn heads wherever you go. The display is bright and vibrant, making it easy to read notifications, messages, and even track your workouts. Plus, with a wide range of customizable watch faces, you can truly make it your own.
Speaking of workouts, the Apple Watch SE is a fantastic fitness companion. It offers a variety of workout tracking options, including running, swimming, cycling, and more. The built-in heart rate monitor and GPS ensure accurate tracking of your activities, helping you stay motivated and reach your fitness goals. And with the ability to sync your workouts with your iPhone, you can easily keep track of your progress over time.
But the Apple Watch SE is not just about fitness. It also keeps you connected throughout the day. You can receive and respond to messages, make calls, and even stream music directly from your wrist. The watch also has a handy feature called "Fall Detection," which can automatically call emergency services if it detects a hard fall. This is a great peace of mind for both yourself and your loved ones.
Another aspect that sets the Apple Watch SE apart is its impressive battery life. With up to 18 hours of usage on a single charge, you can wear it all day and still have plenty of power left. And when it's time to recharge, the magnetic charging cable makes it a breeze to top up.
In conclusion, the Apple Watch SE is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enhance their daily life. It offers a beautiful design, a wide range of features, and a price point that won't break the bank. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast, a tech lover, or simply someone who wants to stay connected, this watch has got you covered.

I originally had a Fitbit that was starting to act up. I decided to try the Apple Watch and I love it. It’s easy to use. I like that I can answer text or calls from my watch. The battery has been lasting me 2 days. It may be different for others depending on what apps you use. I did end up buy a new band because the one it comes with looks like it would come off very easily.

My wife loves this watch! Connects to her phone so she can text and answer calls within range. Can even find her phone using the watch which is a big plus because she is always forgetting where she leaves it!

Cannot get any better than this Series SE Apple Watch! I owned a Series 1 for years until I broke it. I was going to replace it with another Series 1 until I did more research into the SE and Series 6. The only reason I did not go with the 6 is because everything was the same except SE did not have the oxygen feature which would be more conducive for my mom who checks her oxygen levels daily and I don’t. I went with the 44 screen size and so glad I did. Fits perfect. Only problem I have is with some Apple Apps that do not work as well as I would like, like the hand washing feature that reminds you to wash your hands when you get home. I tried everything and it just doesn’t work. Other than that, this watch is definitely a 5-Star! And I love the many new faces to select from!

I love it!
it helps me stay active and you can share your fitness data with your friends if you want to keep each other acountable.
It reminds me to breath, allows me to answer my phone (or cancel the call if I don’t want to answer lol)
but for me one of THE best features is the Ping that you can do. I always lose/misplace my phone around the house and with the watch you can ping it and it’ll make a loud dinging noise so you can find it lol

So far I love my apple watch, thought i’ve only had it for 3 days but so far so good. I went from having a fitbit versa 2 to the apple watch se. I looked into both this and the series 6 and the se was more in my price range for all the stuff I was looking for. I like to see my steps so I downloaded a pedometer app so I can see them on my screen. The activity app i thought I wasn’t going to like but it is actually really cool. i have not yet talked on the phone with the watch but I have texted on it. The battery usage is a big change for me but I just keep my charger in my purse if I need it somewhere I go.

I really do love my selection . The gold looks nice and the screen fits a lot better on my wrist than the one I originally had and traded in . I love the color it’s not too rose pink and not too gold . I like it ! Highly recommend the Apple Watch SE 44mm . I also just purchased a screen protector for it . I was able to save some money with this selection as refurbished but works 100% great and for a good deal price compared to new .Even looks brand new as a refurbished/open box item . I love it !

I bought this as an upgrade from the Series 2. I thought I may have some buyers remorse thinking I may not really need the upgrade. But boy was I so wrong! I love this new watch! It’s so much faster and more responsive. The battery is great and last all day. The build quality is nice and you can tell it’s a premium piece of tech. It’s pretty durable but I didn’t buy a case and screen protector but mainly because I can be rough sometimes. I did think about going with the Series 6 but there was only a few extra features and I know I wouldn’t have really used them. The money save was well worth it. Go with the Apple Watch SE!

Great little gadget to have if you can afford it. Would I say it’s completely necessary?... no.
It has really cool features and the screen is very responsive. I bought it for the texting & calling feature, not for all the workout/blood oxygen features, I actually turned those off. The battery lasts last a full day. I got the 44mm and it looks great, even on my small wrist. I automatically changed the band because I’m not a fan of the rubber one that comes with it.

Works great. It doesn’t feel like it’s missing any features at all. In my opinion don’t waste your money on the more expensive versions. My only complaint is that the screen scratched way too easy. Wore it 2 days and it had scratches. Not deep but still visible. So a case is a must for me
