    Been using it for a month, and it’s been fantastic! The larger screen makes it easy to read notifications and track workouts. It has all the essential features I need, like heart rate tracking, activity monitoring. Battery life is solid, lasting about 1.5 days with regular use. Overall, it’s a great smartwatch for anyone looking for performance without overspending!

    My last apple watch lasted for 3 years with hard use. I expect this one to do just as well. Not much has changed with apple watches since then but I appreciate having a little bigger screen this time.

    Love the apple watch. It does what I need it to. I don't need all the bells and whistles on the more expensive versions. This was a quick and easy transaction. I ordered it online and picked it up 2 hours later in store.

    This was such a steal at this price and a much better buy than the latest and greatest Apple watch. I track my sleep, exercise, and get great battery life. 10/10 would recommend. BestBuy had a better price than Amazon too!

    Love my new Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen)! It’s super easy to use, tracks all my workouts, and keeps me motivated with the Activity Rings. The battery lasts all day, and it’s lightweight and comfortable to wear. It has all the features I need without the higher price of the Series 8. Perfect for everyday use!

    This was a replacement for one sent to Goodwill in error. I support goodwill but this donation was unintended. Nonetheless, it is a great product that mirrors my iPhone perfectly adding such convenience. There are more expensive watches with more features, but this watch fit my needs. Great product!

    I’ve been using the Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed with it! The design is sleek and modern, and the display is bright and clear, even in direct sunlight. It tracks my workouts, steps, and heart rate accurately, and I love the added peace of mind from the crash detection feature. While it doesn’t have some of the advanced features like ECG or blood oxygen monitoring, it has everything I need for everyday use, including great integration with my iPhone. Battery life is solid, lasting me a full day, and the performance is fast and smooth. For the price, it’s an excellent value and a perfect option if you want a reliable, high-quality smartwatch without paying for the more expensive models. Highly recommend!

    The Apple Watch SE is a first-time buyer's smartwatchWhen I reviewed the original Apple Watch SE in 2020, I was certain it was the best option for most people. In fact, my SE review was titled, “ Just get the Apple Watch SE .” Back then, the always-on display was relatively new, the bigger screen
