The Apple Watch SE is a first-time buyer’s smartwatch

 

When 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 with...

S8 chip is 20 percent faster ; It’s $150 cheaper than the Series 8 ; Gets the bulk of watchOS 9 features ; Excellent entry-level watch

The bezels are thick ; Smaller display isn’t good for elderly relatives ; No always-on display ; Fewer sensors

I got used to the SE’s smaller screen after a while, but I was happy to strap the Series 8 and Ultra back on my wrist for further testing. I will miss the lighter weight and the way it looks on my wrist, but not at the expense of my big, beautiful...

Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) Review: The Perfect Amount of Smart Watch

 

The second generation Apple Watch SE is Apple's latest budget smartwatch that probably has everything you need if you're not a SCUBA diver or a mountain climber. But is it worth the upgrade if you already have an Apple Watch? I used the SE alongside my...

This fall we saw a slew of Apple product releases. From the much anticipated , to the hugely popular . But slotted below those in price is the Apple Watch SE (2nd gen). This has become Apple's ‘budget' Apple Watch edition, now that the previous budget...

Apple Watch SE (2022) review

 

The new Apple Watch SE (2022) pairs an up-to-date processor with many of Apple's latest smartwatch features, including watchOS 9 and low power mode. Plus it checks out at a lower starting price.

If you want the full-featured Apple Watch experience, the Apple Watch Series 8 is the better choice. But I think many average users will find everything they need in the new SE.

Apple Watch SE 2022 review: The best entry point for Apple Watch | AppleInsider

 

The second-generation Apple Watch SE upgrade is the ideal starter Apple Watch, and the best choice for parents who want their child to have one.

Affordable without skimping on core features ; LTE isn't much more than the Wi-Fi only model ; Good alternative to providing a child an iPhone SE

No always-on display ; No ECG features ; No SpO2 monitoring

Apple Watch SE (2022) review: All Apple for part of the price

 

The new cheap Apple Watch SE feels like a full-price experience

Lightweight, premium design ; Excellent apps and iPhone integration ; Very good fitness options ; Long battery life (for an Apple Watch)

No always-on screen ; Limited health sensors ; Low battery life (for a fitness watch) ; Only for iPhone users still

The new Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen is as smooth, fast and flexible as Apple's more expensive smartwatches, with all the app support you could want. The new lighter build makes it perhaps Apple's most comfortable watch ever, too. It's a pity it doesn't have...

Apple Watch SE 2 review: more than just an affordable smartwatch

 

Second-gen Apple Watch SE continues to be an excellent value-for-money option for fans of the Cupertino-based tech giant

Multiple case size and colour options ; Same processor as the Apple Watch Series 8 ; By-yearly release cycle means it retains its value for longer ; Lighter than Apple Watch Series 8 ; Almost all features as mainline Apple Watches

No always-on-screen option ; No ECG or blood oxygen ; Slower charge speed ; Comparatively thick bezel ; Uses an older optical heart rate sensor

Overall, the changes and updates offered by the Apple Watch SE 2 might not feel significant, but there ARE some upgrades, both hardware and software, which make the second iteration of Apple's affordable wearable more appealing. It might not be as...

Apple Watch SE (2022) review: Best of the bunch?

 

Apple has three smartwatches in its 2022 line up, including a second generation Watch SE. Is it the one to buy? Here's our review.

Colour-matched body ; Lightweight ; Upgraded processor ; Great features ; WatchOS 9 ; Good price

No Always-On Display ; No body temperature sensor ; No SpO2 sensor

The Apple Watch SE makes some decent upgrades over its predecessor, predominantly in terms of a step-up in processor, as well as a colour-matched casing that is kinder to the environment, and some extra features like the Car Crash Detection. It doesn't...
