Listen, we don’t need titanium, or a strong material. Most people just need to message others, call each other, or maybe just listen to music. And if this is the case, you can save a ton of hard earned money on buying the Apple Watch SE (2). This Apple Watch also still has some features that expensive Apple Watches actually have. The only big difference is the screen, screen brightness, and the strength of it. I recommend this watch for whomever needs an Apple Watch but thinks it is too expensive. Great choice! Also love the tutorial! Thanks.
Exactly my thoughts. I just need to see my calls, text, email and look at the time without having to put my phone every time. I don’t need all those fancy sensors. Although it does bother me the whole scratching thing for the screen and case of it. But oh well
I paid my phone bill on Christmas and T-Mobile gave me a Christmas gift that I had completely forgotten about. The gift was the Apple Watch SE the latest version. I already had an Apple Watch so I’m going to give it to my little brother. So I’m gonna pass it forward and hopefully the spirit of giving will continue to reverberate and give some joy in folks lives…
I bought an SE last week, I already own an Ultra but that’s connected to my primary phone. I wanted another Apple Watch to link up to my business phone so I got the SE and it’s the best decision. Started wearing it more than the ultra. I love its slim profile and the black colour is sleek.
I just got my wife a Series 9 as a Christmas gift and it does have a lot of bells and whistles. I’m thinking of getting the SE for myself after the holidays and it just seems to be a better value as a daily driver. That PS5 plug was indeed silly. You have my sub, sir. 😂
I have the new SE2 2023 and came from a AW 6 and I miss some features like the always on display. The ECG and the oxygen on blood I think isn’t worth if you are a healthy guy. Great Watch
I have mine. I swear it is a wonderful watch. I don’t care about a lot of the higher end features. I can make calls, text, and a lot more. Being that I was in a motorcycle accident I can monitor my heart rate. I am happy with it. I have been a Samsung and LG guy for a long time. I got this as a gift and it has made me very happy. No complaints.
Apple Watches in my opinion are only worth buying IF YOU WORK OUT A LOT. I am a runner and using an Apple Watch instead of a phone is amazing. It is able to track where I run, how fast I’m going, and how many miles I run all without being connected to my phone or the internet. You can see other health related stats like calories, steps etc. of course it’s helpful getting notifications straight from your wrist but if you are not using it to work out I do not recommend. Trust me.
Personally I work construction and have broken too many phones to count, i bought the cellular one and it’s convenient I can leave my phone in the car and use this with my headphones and be able to make calls and listen to music without carrying my phone or worrying about breaking it and in general would much rather break this than my phone
Nice video Fowler! My butt's been itching to get this SE 2nd gen since I just can't justify paying a massive amount for an s9 let alone the ultra. I doubt I will use the extras in the s9 and ultra anyway. I'll also be a first time apple watch owner too, so I think the time has come (been using iPhone as my daily phone since the iPhone 5 LOL). Thanks and nice video!
Hi! I’m considering purchasing my first cellular Apple Watch and would love your advice. My main reasons for wanting one are to leave my iPhone at home while running and hiking, and to stream Spotify through my AirPods. Additionally, I’d use it at work and while out and about to quickly check messages and emails. Do you think the Apple Watch SE 2 would be a good choice for me between now and December? I’m curious if it will continue to receive updates for a while. I was hoping for a third generation, but it looks like that didn’t happen. Thanks!
I'm in a very lucky situation, as my mobile plan with unlimited data comes with 2 extra free data sims, intended for exactly this situation, and you can even use it with a third device like a tablet or notebook. I bought the cellular version to use when I go out for a really short time, like picking up a package, or buying some food or something. Also, its a peace of mind that even if I loose my phone, I would still have my watch and I can use it to lock the phone and find it.
Got mine for $50 cellular version on the used market locally. Didn’t come with a band or charger but got both for $15 at Walmart. I just won’t setup cellular and use WiFi only.
i’m thinking whether i sld wait for SE3 coming this september or just get the SE2 omggg. i don’t really wanna wait but it sounds dumb to buy the old one now. but the new SE3 will be expensive for a while when it’s out too… can’t decide
@ i like mine, but i dont use it for much just tracking my heart rate when i work out and monitoring my sleep. The only problem i have is it could have a better battery life but i feel most apple devices are this way.
This is why I switched from Fitbit to Apple Watch I paid monthly for the membership and for Black Friday the se was cheaper than an Fitbit versa and sense
bought one for my wife to try because everyone around is having it. Personally I stick to bulky and buggy Garmin just because I charge it only once a week. After my wife tested Apple watch for a few weeks I'm really confused. So it has beautiful design and iphone integration. Very nice functionality. But when are you people charging it? It seems like you have to walk with the charger all the time. If you charge at night then sleep tracking is useless. If during the day then where? At this point I'm returning it and stay away from the product until battery times becomes friendlier
My guess is that battery times will never be friendly. While watches like Redmi Watch 4 have 20+ days battery, regular Apple Watches last like 2 days. I think one might charge it after waking up while taking a shower, sitting on the couch or during eating. Then again I also sold my Apple Watches because the battery was just super annoying.
I have the Apple Watch SE, and have had it since 2021. I love it! I honestly go anywhere without it. I’m thinking of upgrading it soon to an AW9 or when the X comes out because it won’t support Watch OS11.
I bought this back in April of this year because i was upgraded from my outdated Series 3. It works for me as s do not need all the extra features. I just use the basics like the step counter/getting notiications. I have the 44mm and i find it makes a big difference to me as i can read more text from my notifications as i did the 40mm. A great watch for someoen who has an iPhone and wants to get into having a smartwatch to pair with their iPhone
I tell you what I think this would be the ideal one for the Best Buy for me because I only want a watch for the time to use a normal watch and also tracking my walking ya know something better than the phone so very interesting with the regular features and some of the limited features
Thanks for the review! I decided to buy the series 9 instead of the SE2 for some extra features but i can assure you that the SE2 is a perfect watch(my friend has one)
First I decided to go with regular iPhone 15 because I came to the conclusion that I don’t need those pro features. Now I decided to buy Apple Watch SE2 because the only reason I was considering S9 was smaller bezels and let’s be honest, it’s not worth almost double the price
Im a market for a Apple Watch everyone in my family has one at first I’m like they are useless does same thing as your phone but having your phone on your wrist is pretty cool. You are the 5th video I have seen and I feel like the SE is the one for me thanks
Just ordered mine as a second watch, I’ve had the ultra 2 for couple months, should be fun , it was on special offer just knocked my monthly pay up but not much. Thanks for the great info. Subscribed.
I went with a reburbished Series 7 from Best Buy instead of the Se 2 since it was $20 cheaper and I think that the Series 7 is better overall. Thanks for the video 👍
i got the se2 today and i love it, I use to have one of the first apple watches that came out in middle school so its really nostalgic but I like to check time, track my workouts and text without using my phone all the time. I did accidently pay the extra for cellular even tho I'm never gonna use it I cant stand the red circle on the wheel but oh well ill get use to it. W video
I recently got my Apple Watch SE 2 and am loving it so far! One thing I'm wondering is whether to buy AppleCare+ for it. It has 2 tiers one for $2.49/month indefinitely or $49 for 2 years. To anyone with an Apple Watch, is AppleCare+ worth it?
I’ve been debating about getting one for a year now since I do a lot of fishing and I’ve dropped my phone in the water once, got it back, and having a smart watch will save me a headache.
I tried switching back to Samsung after 4 years and i've just went back to Apple i miss that Apple watch too much 😂 it's just way better than the Samsung watch even though i only use it to check notifications or change music or maybe an alarm from time to time. I had the original watch SE it was really good so i have purchased the SE 2 😊
I had the original Apple Watch 42mm for quite a long time before it broke, and just got this one for Christmas yesterday. In the 40mm size it feels a very significant amount better on my wrist.
Since Apple has removed the Blood O2 monitoring in their high end Apple Watches, the SE 2 is DEFINITELY the best deal out there when it comes to an Apple Watch.
Jsut got this! I’m excited as it arrives tmrw. I’m on a diet and calorie counting so I’m hoping this will help see how much I’m burning so I know how much I can take it in. How’s the accuracy of that I wonder?…. 🤨
hey, can you help me? is it okay to use it as a navigation for driving or riding if we do not want to mount our phone? also will you feel regret if the SE 3 comes out few months later?
Subbed up! Thanks for the info! Just bought one. I was so on the fence because of the price difference between the se and the newer ones but this helped a lot. Thank you!!
