    Excellent product. Purchased this one for my wife because she prefers the smaller footprint. Was an avid FitBit user for multiple years and iterations. Hopefully, this one will last much longer than any of those. I have been happy with my series 8 as well and highly recommend both/either of them.

    I love my watch! It’s super easy to use, and I love that I can text, make notes and keep track of my activity. I don’t often have time to stop and get back to people and this has been an awesome way to make communication on the go easier. I got an open box but it’s perfect!

    I use my Apple Watch primarily to track workouts and for receiving notifications. It’s also easy to set alarms for reminders throughout the day by just lifing your wrist and saying “set an alarm for 2:00 PM.” The SE is a great budget option.

    Love this watch! It runs great, looks slick, and the battery has a great life to it. I had this watch for a year and was pretty rough on it, it never broke. My husband did drop it about 3 feet onto concrete and it shattered the screen.. but other than that it has been great. Highly recommend!

    Wasn't planning on purchasing until my new work position required more use of notifications! Made my life simpler to keep an eye out for incoming messages without checking phone every two seconds. Expectedly happy with battery life even if its only at about 24 hours, but using the magnetic charger made things easy.

    This was a gift for my wife. Initially not sure if she would use its features, but she loves it. she wears it everyday rather than her other regular watches. The band that came with the watch was not that comfortable and she eventually bought a different band.

    So far I love the watch itself, nice features for a first time Apple Watch owner, the battery life is good, and it uses about 20% of the battery in the eight hours I spend sleeping. I usually charge it in the evening while watching tv so it doesn’t bother me that the batteries only lasts one day.

    I have resisted the smart watch craze for several years and am slow to come around to technology sometimes. It seemed an expensive “want” that I really didn’t “need” and I didn’t want to be bothered with having to learn how to use something new. I’m so glad I succumbed.. lol. So easy to use and REALLY motivates me to move and exercise.

    Terrific Watch. Terrible Band

    This watch is awesome!!! It does everything that my Fitbit did and more!!! It has all sorts of gizmos and apps to tell all sorts of things!! I would give this a 5 if it wasn’t for the band that comes with it. It’s total crap. It’s durable but will come off at the slightest tug. You’d expect that it would be at least be like every other watch known to man with a belt like band. Not this. Plus if your wrists aren’t that big, you’ll have an excess of the band just flopping around which gets in the way. Watch is terrific, band sucks. Do yourself a favor and buy a different one when you purchase.

    When I purchased this around the holiday season, this model was sold out in most stores - even at Apple. I decided to purchase it from Best Buy and they said I would have it in about a week. Interestingly enough, it arrived to my address in about 3 days. It was a great place to purchase it and obviously, this device works great!

    While the software update was substantial, the Apple Watch Series SE hardware update was modest at best. It included faster internals, and vehicular crash detection. Whereas again, most upgrades came via new software features, like triathlon support, deeper structured workout/interval features, a revamped compass app with backtrack functionality, and running power/efficiency metrics (and again, all via WatchOS9). At first glance, I see very few changes in Apple Watch SE hardware. With a faster internal processor and an updated composite for the case, updates to the look of the watch are minor. However, I do see significant changes come from the software platform in the form of the new WatchOS 9 update. Here I see the biggest increase in new features for the sports, fitness, and health metrics since the inauguration of the first Apple Watch. Keep in mind, the WatchOS 9 features can be updated back to even the Apple Watch Series 5, so lots to keep in mind if looking for an upgrade.

    I bought this for my teenage son for Christmas. He asked for this and only wore it on Christmas day. I set it up for him and within days I realized that I was more excited than he was about the watch. I thought it was great but maybe best for a highschool teenager.
