They were going to do the squared design to match iPhone 13 and the iPads, BUT there was supply chain issues so they literally last minute decided to change it to this which is why its not really anything new and just a bit larger display, which was supposed to be in the squared casing.
As for the colors: I got midnight yesterday, it’s safe to say it’s practically black. The band is more of a “midnight” color. It’s a very dark blue, but the band can easily be changed if you want to opt for a black one. So if you’re stuck on the colors, and wanted a neutral color to go with more outfits, midnight is a great choice.
Jesus Loves everyone ever forget that even when others don’t care about you this will never forget about you know washed out letting you please confess your sins except Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior and then Say in Jesus name Amen!
Starlight is a nice one too for a neutral color scheme. I have the Starlight Series 7 and I love it, it goes with any outfit, and if I want a black (or close to black) band, I can reuse the black one from my old series 4 or get the midnight band.
Still rocking a series one. when I bought it I was worried that i'd only be able to wear it for 2 years before it gets outdated! I have dived with, played rugby with and pretty much done everything imaginable to it! and to be honest it works just great for showing the time and counting my steps. feel like I wanna upgrade. but at the same time I just love being able to tell people I'm rocking the series 1!
I don’t care too much about having current Gen everything, so if you’re still rocking a series 1, I get the impression that I would be fine if I got a series 3 or 4.
I got my series 1 in 2017 and the screen started to pop out of the casing this summer as the battery has expanded too much - I'm so gutted as I love it and don't want to part!
i just got my first apple watch the series 3 for 170. if you want to upgrade and dont want to kill your bank acc while doing it i would reccomend the series 3.
@@-xnnybimb-9398 DO NOT get a series 3. I repeat, DO NOT GET A SERIES 3! It's the worst version by Apple. I would go for Series 4 if you want to save money and not get the latest version
@@isailopez605 There's a thing where guys are supposed to to wear your watch on your left hand, otherwise you are gay because only women wear watches on their right hand. I though nobody was stupid enough to think that way, until people we looking and me funny and joking about it.
@@odiousfox355 Nope, wrong. The general rule is you wear your wrist on your non-dominant hand. i.e right hand for lefties and left for right handed people. Why? Simply because if you wear it on your dominant hand it gets in the way of tasks like writing. Now if you prefer to wear it on your right if you are right handed, that's fine. Its just preference...
Coming from the Series 3, I gotta say this generation was well worth the upgrade! I also upgraded from the aluminum to stainless steel, and I am freaking loving it!
That's good to hear because I too am upgrading from a Series 3 to a Series 7. However, I opted for the Titanium casing and am excited to see it in person!
@@rogithkumar3508 The glass on the stainless steel is stronger and more scratch resistant. The metal itself is polished and shiny so it looks really nice :)
I have the Series 7 in starlight (45mm) and I can say it’s pretty neutral. It looks great with any outfit, and the warm shade of white on the band doesn’t bother me. Even midnight blue is dark enough to be considered neutral in my opinion. I’m happy with my series 7. (Upgrade from series 4 44mm)
Can't believe people care about the color of there bands unless it's pink or some ish...I care only and I mean ONLY if that ish has scratches. Just got a series 7 45mm midnight blue LTE for 200 on ebay I made the lister send me pictures with flash from every angle. Even tho it's a great deal every scratch to me is a 20 dollar deduction luckily the auction i won had zero scratches it's a beaut I couldn't care what band color it has
Every time I watch a MKBHD intro I’m like “okay cool it’s just a regular simple intro showing the item, nothing special here this time” and then BAM it has some EPIC animation that involves the device. Never disappointed .
I just waited for the new series 7 to release so I could go on 3rd party reseller sites and buy the series 6 for less than $300. Thanks apple for fueling that supply!
For anyone doubtful of the durability, I've been using my Series 4 for heavy weightlifting, in the shower, pool, sauna and spa for more than 2 years and still runs great... It's definitely scratched and bruised but all good.
I’m upgrading from a series 3 so while I was hoping for a few more features, this upgrade will be huge for me. I agree with you in being disappointed in the colors though. My last 2 Apple watches have been silver and I wanted a change. Ordered the midnight but am definitely disappointed that I can’t get a black in the aluminum. I just don’t care for the starlight. And while I love the red, (yours looked really sharp) it just won’t match enough of my wardrobe to make that choice. I’ve been a loyal Apple customer for 40 years but feel like they are trying to blackmail us into going with the stainless steel or titanium in order to get a neutral color. I’ll be interested to see how the midnight pairs with black clothing and with bands that are black or have black in them. Not too well I fear.
I am the same way, im looking to upgrade from my series 3 and im just going to wait until my 13 pro max comes in the mail, and then see if can just wait another year for the 8 to come out? But my 3 to a 7 or 8 would be a big big upgrade, hope you enjoy and it does suck we cant get a black unless we upgrade bodys.. let us know about the color you got!

Fabulous review, Marques!! You never disappoint! After waiting and debating, for well over a year, I'm going to immerse myself even deeper in the Apple Ecosystem and purchase the Series 7 Watch, tomorrow. Back when the Series 6 was at the top of the lineup, I was going to make that my first Apple device, but many people told me it wouldn't do me much good, if I didn't have an iPhone. I purchased my first one, in January. As much as I love watches, in general, I never liked having one on, all the time. However, I've done enough research on this Apple Watch to confirm for myself that I will wear it a lot, because of all the conveniences and benefits it brings. And the larger case and display on the 7 was a major selling point. Where I'm going to buy it, they only have the silicone-type Sport Bands. I have large wrists and the band will fit me, but not with any room to spare. That's my only gripe, but I know I can buy a Sport Loop (Velcro-fasten) band, if I really want that, instead.
Nope, aluminium is cheaper than steel NOT stainless steel. The alloys and the process make Stainless Steel much more expensive. plain steel is cheap though…..(another metallurgist)
@@MrA1Sauceee Mine was honestly great, but yes it dipped. I recently did a battery test and it lasted 24 hours on the dot. But do keep in mind I was working out a lot on that day (>4000kJ, >100+mins) -- So I am still content with it I suppose.
Had my Series 7 for a week now after having a Samsung Gear 3 for the past 5 years, and left my Galaxy S 20 Ultra for the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and I’m loving both!
Same, but wearing masks 😷 is making me consider getting one until the pandemic is over for the phone unlock feature. Also since I don’t keep my automatics on when I’m home and I’m not going out as much, my watches are never wound when I do want to wear them.
Me too, I can’t find a reason for me to buy a smart watch since my phone does everything and more. My eyes for watches are on the Rolex, Hublot, or Tag Heuer if I ever wanted to wear one.
Yes exactly. Its an object your wear on your wrist all day. It makes sense for it to feel organic and not squared of. I mean its an Apple Watch not and pebble
Idk what everyone is saying but there was also almost no difference between the s4, s5 and s6 so yeah with that in mind i think a bigger screen is very nice.
Went from a black 42mm Series 2 to Product Red 41mm. Also went from silicon band to a braided solo brand size 9, it fits so perfectly! Hopefully going to wear it more consistently than I did the 2 :)
I upgraded from a series 4 40mm to the series 7 45mm and I am impressed with the display honestly! And I love the color 😍 I am happy with mine thus far
Marques: “i like that the snooze button is slightly bigger in the alarm clock” Dave2D: “I know I don’t sleep enough but the sleep tracking Apple Watch doesn’t help me” The two sides of tech RUclips right here. I’m with Marques, snooze all day!
I love how casual he is in this video. no over the top professionalism, or altering his tone, yet it's still tidy. I really appreciate it when people just talk to me like their relaxed selves rather than try to sell me an exaggerated version of themselves.
I’m glad I wasn't the only one that got upset at the color choices. Ive always gone with the space gray, but I think I have to go with starlight this year.
I literally have to get the Stainless Steel SILVER and the Modern Buckle CHALK. Because that is the ONLY Silver/White POSSIBILITY 、 now they have REMOVED Silver Aluminum & all White rubber-y Bands. 🤯😢
I can confirm the apple watches durability... I wear it when I do dishes, shower, and have even dunked it in lacquer thinner during my time in the paint booth! It hasn't failed me once, it takes hits too!
I'm upgrading from the Series 3, so I'm pretty pumped to have something that I hopefully won't need to return to factory settings each time I want to update the firmware.
This was really helpful. I’m hoping to upgrade from my Series 3, 38mm and appreciated your comment about how the 7 can feel big on your wrist. I don’t want my watch to feel big or heavy so I may go for 40mm SE.
The 38mm is just so tiny. I thought about downsizing my Series 3 42mm a bit and getting a 41mm but it still felt way too small. The 45mm looks a little too big though. I just want an always-on display
I do as well but it’s due to heavy black tattoos on my left wrist. I used to wear it there until this year when my tattoos got in the way of the sensors too much , been right wrist for about 7 months now. I’m almost used to it.
As a lefty myself, I wear my watch on my right wrist; it's easier to write for me. My watch is upside down, so the crown is on the left. RUclipsr iJustine is a lefty, I saw how she wears her watch, and it was the right solution for me.🙂
He still reviews stuff for most of the people, so he has to speak for most of the people.. Also, stainless steel watches are heavier so not the best for when you're doing sport. How incredibly light the aluminium watches are, makes you forget that you're wearing them, especially people who wear it to bed.
Me too. Glad I'm not the only one lol my 4 is actually still working really well. The battery is not as good as it used to be, but that's expected. Am considering buying this new upgrade because it finally feels worth it for me.
Same here. I've had my series 4 for years, even through aggressive use with the Marines. I have a minor crack on the top portion of the glass, the watch is still water tight. Aside from that, I've had no problems and no reason to upgrade. However, I do like the new larger screen of the series 7 and the upgrades faces and features, so I'm contemplating upgrading.
Same here but I’m in a dilemma whether to get this one now or maybe stick it out too the 8 comes out. I have a feeling there might be more worthwhile upgrades to that🤔i don’t know, lol
you should talk about how apple deleted the exact same app that was available, offering a keyboard for the watch, and how they added it to their watchOS update soon after :)
I always thought I prefer big watches until I got 41 mm size Pixel Watch. After that when I switched to Apple I started preferring 41mm sized Apple Watches.
@@Nemenis well even to check simple notifications it is slow. I would have actually continued to use my Series 1 but the battery expanded and blew out.
This man , " at the risk of tanking this video and it's watch time." Me: *a person who doesn't own any apple products and doesn't plan on getting one* Bigger screen you say hmm 🤔 what else is new. ( Continues to watch whole video)
I really love you’re reviewers. I’m not on the market but you’re videos are always really good. I’ve had my AppleWatch SE for a little over a year and I love it and don’t see anything on the newer models worth switching for…in case anyone is in the market for a new watch
@3:50 iam pretty sure you are not supposed to read the numbers when telling the time but the position of the hands... numbers will always be in the same position assuming you correctly wear the watch.
No kidding. I got into a T-bone motorbike accident 3 months back. Apart from a few scratches on the screen and the case, the watch works miraculously well after an impact straight on the tarmac.. Most durable Apple Watch.. Maybe they're not just marketing words !! (Aluminium)
You are absolutely right Marques, no "neutral" color in aluminum. I love the space black or graphite, and one can only hope that Apple adds it to their line-up next year.
Just to clarify: 50m water resistance is NOT suitable for diving. It’s literally rated for swimming at surface level. Usually a watch with 30M WR actually is recommended for splashing while washing your hands at best, not to wear in the shower etc, so 50 is pretty much only for swimming. In theory it can handle the pressure from water 50 meters deep, but that’s with no motion whatsoever. So don’t dive with it folks, or at least, do it at your own risk. Also pretty sure apples warrantee does not cover water damage 🤷🏼♂️
What was Apple thinking not making any neutral/monochrome colors available for the aluminium? Black bands for example are not going to look as good with the midnight colorway.
Pretty happy with my SE. Didn’t really need all the extra features of the numbered ones since it still tracks all my fitness stuff just fine still. Slapped a case on it and never worry about damaging it at work
Man keep your apple watch se battery health in the 6 sucks I lost almost 10% of the battery in less than a year my wife SE watch still on 99% I bought them at the same time
AppleCare+ for Apple Watch SE probably cost about as much as the case you put on it, and your case doesn't let you swap out your Apple Watch for a new/refurbished one once it's been scratched.
That watch band hit me on the face even before I notice it's MKBHD related.. awesome design .. great material choice.. sadly I never use Apple watches. Hope moment and marquees do some designs for Android bands. 🙏🙏
I currently have a apple watch 4 and ive upgraded to the series 7 was hoping for a bigger reason to upgrade but i will take the bigger screen and faster charging
Why does everyone want the square design to come to fruition ? I feel like that would be less comfortable to have on the wrist just like holding the new iPhones compared to the iPhone 11.
it’s more conspicuous that you have the new model on when its design is so different from the previous one, which is a factor for people when upgrading their portable tech.
@@mencibenci yeah I get the hype of having the newest stuff. I just think people hear a rumor about it being square designed and don’t even think about if it’s even something they’d want.
For component layout it's much better. And I don't think it's uncomfortable since I hade boxier watches before. For iPhones I absolutely like the squared of design much more. I specifically have cases for all the rounded iPhone which make them squarer. But it just adds so much material to the sides.
I got one for my mom as a first time Apple Watch wearer, I think this is like several months later but getting her a green one, the colour is really barely noticeable unless it's direct sunlight, so if you're hoping for a bright pop it's not it...it's quite dull. Second issue is that by getting her the smaller watch, battery life with probably the smallest amount of use is still pretty bad...it regularly drops like 20~ percent within a 3-4 hours being mostly idle and not even having always-on display on or even exercise or anything...just regular texts and some email notifications causes it to lose that much....I have an SE 44mm size and mine lasts a good long day easily. So just something to be aware of (the smaller 41mm series 7 is so bad I've turned off the blood oxygen to try and save some battery life)
I think the display is the only thing that matters with Apple Watches by now. The rest just works as intended and everything additional seems a litte quirky to be honest
I only just recently go the Series 7, rather than the Series 8 that is available now, because it's cheaper and practically the same. But I wanted to say, the red version is a lot less bold than I thought it would be. Unless it's being under direct light, or bright sunlight, it's very dark, almost black.
Agree on the colors! I was in the market to upgrade from my 3 and went with the SE for the more neutral color. Price decrease was nice but I wanted the bigger screen.
looking forward to getting my hands on one on Friday - pretty intrigued to see how it holds up in the surf compared to the 3 and the 6 (which I've been using for surf tracking for years), but tougher is always appreciated! SE still looks like the best value for sure though! 🤙

@@MrA1Sauceee Mine was honestly great, but yes it dipped. I recently did a battery test and it lasted 24 hours on the dot. But do keep in mind I was working out a lot on that day (>4000kJ, >100+mins) -- So I am still content with it I suppose.
Had my Series 7 for a week now after having a Samsung Gear 3 for the past 5 years, and left my Galaxy S 20 Ultra for the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and I’m loving both!
I love technology yet I can’t bring myself to wear smart watches. I still love analog and automatic watches and the gshocks
Same, but wearing masks 😷 is making me consider getting one until the pandemic is over for the phone unlock feature. Also since I don’t keep my automatics on when I’m home and I’m not going out as much, my watches are never wound when I do want to wear them.
Me too, I can’t find a reason for me to buy a smart watch since my phone does everything and more. My eyes for watches are on the Rolex, Hublot, or Tag Heuer if I ever wanted to wear one.
I appreciate the good designs on these watch, I was really impressed to see how it works, love how the screen keyboard works with it,
Yay! :D
Yes exactly. Its an object your wear on your wrist all day. It makes sense for it to feel organic and not squared of. I mean its an Apple Watch not and pebble
Idk what everyone is saying but there was also almost no difference between the s4, s5 and s6 so yeah with that in mind i think a bigger screen is very nice.
S5 had always on display. So its way different than S4
The reason iPhone 7 exists like it does and not flat like it’s designed for…late stage manufacturing issues prevented the flat design.
@@grimhammer00 what?
what more could people want from a watch, what health features could they possibly add?
@@airfork192 glucose monitoring and a longer battery life
Went from a black 42mm Series 2 to Product Red 41mm. Also went from silicon band to a braided solo brand size 9, it fits so perfectly! Hopefully going to wear it more consistently than I did the 2 :)
Marques killing it with the intro as always 🔥
I upgraded from a series 4 40mm to the series 7 45mm and I am impressed with the display honestly! And I love the color 😍 I am happy with mine thus far
What color did you get? I got Starlight 45mm.
I love how he puts so much effort and time into production values, probably the best on YT and keeps messing up small things like text boxes 😂
"I wear my wrist on my right wrist---you okay, Marques? Haha. Not very excited about that watch, are we? Lol. Love you, man.
☝️☝️Congratulations you have been selected as a winner.
"EVENT though I'm a lefty"
Marques: “i like that the snooze button is slightly bigger in the alarm clock”
Dave2D: “I know I don’t sleep enough but the sleep tracking Apple Watch doesn’t help me”
The two sides of tech RUclips right here. I’m with Marques, snooze all day!
lol so true
Upgraded from S6 44mm to S7 41mm. Almost the same size, just smaller bezels. Midnight is darker than space gray. I love it!
So impressive but upgrade not needed for another year! SE lives on beautifully
SE can live on forever . It’s still sold by Apple . At least until end of software support
How's the battery life
I love the SE!
Why would you even want to upgrade? Your watch is like 2 years old…
@@iron_b0olt Your so right! Its the best man!
I love how casual he is in this video. no over the top professionalism, or altering his tone, yet it's still tidy. I really appreciate it when people just talk to me like their relaxed selves rather than try to sell me an exaggerated version of themselves.
“i wear my WRIST on my right wrist event though i’m not a lefty” oh my god this sentence🤣
Take this as a lesson, kids, you don’t have to be smart to be successful.
The watch has a calculator, but not the iPad. Genius.
Don’t throw that logic at us. It’s Apple
I’m glad I wasn't the only one that got upset at the color choices. Ive always gone with the space gray, but I think I have to go with starlight this year.
I literally have to get the Stainless Steel SILVER and the Modern Buckle CHALK. Because that is the ONLY Silver/White POSSIBILITY 、 now they have REMOVED Silver Aluminum & all White rubber-y Bands. 🤯😢
I can confirm the apple watches durability... I wear it when I do dishes, shower, and have even dunked it in lacquer thinner during my time in the paint booth! It hasn't failed me once, it takes hits too!
I'm upgrading from the Series 3, so I'm pretty pumped to have something that I hopefully won't need to return to factory settings each time I want to update the firmware.
Exactly why I‘m upgrading. Although I really struggled with the colors..
These intros are getting better every time 😍
10:05 Slightly more excited than normal endings there! I'm really looking forward to the next few weeks!
This was really helpful. I’m hoping to upgrade from my Series 3, 38mm and appreciated your comment about how the 7 can feel big on your wrist. I don’t want my watch to feel big or heavy so I may go for 40mm SE.
The 38mm is just so tiny. I thought about downsizing my Series 3 42mm a bit and getting a 41mm but it still felt way too small. The 45mm looks a little too big though. I just want an always-on display
I just got the series 7 today and it’s my first watch. I find it awesome
*Marques:* I wear the watch on my right wrist even though I'm not a lefty.
*Me:* I thought I was the only one :o
I do as well but it’s due to heavy black tattoos on my left wrist. I used to wear it there until this year when my tattoos got in the way of the sensors too much , been right wrist for about 7 months now. I’m almost used to it.
@Pìnned by MARQUÈS BR0WNLEE 😐
I’m a lefty and wear my watch on my left wrist, just feels right… lol
As a lefty we don’t claim you /j
Lmao bruh that’s not right. I’m a lefty, i always wear crap on the right hand
@@delusional3392 Lol, that's not right. JK. I get it, though.
As a lefty myself, I wear my watch on my right wrist; it's easier to write for me. My watch is upside down, so the crown is on the left. RUclipsr iJustine is a lefty, I saw how she wears her watch, and it was the right solution for me.🙂
im a lefty and i wear it on my right otherwise it gets in the way when writing
MKBHD the only dude who makes millions a month then acts like he can’t afford the stainless steel watches LOL
I thought he didn’t like buying stainless steel because fingerprints show on it
Just because u can afford something dont mean u have to go out and but a certain watch maybe he just don’t want that particular watch
He still reviews stuff for most of the people, so he has to speak for most of the people.. Also, stainless steel watches are heavier so not the best for when you're doing sport. How incredibly light the aluminium watches are, makes you forget that you're wearing them, especially people who wear it to bed.
He is a typical RUclipsr
@@chaotictattoo what’s the point of such a useless comment?
A year ago I discovered MKBHD on the Apple Watch series 6 video. I’ve watched half his whole channel ever since
Still rocking a series 4 so I’m tempted to get the new green one.
Me too. Glad I'm not the only one lol my 4 is actually still working really well. The battery is not as good as it used to be, but that's expected. Am considering buying this new upgrade because it finally feels worth it for me.
Same here. I've had my series 4 for years, even through aggressive use with the Marines. I have a minor crack on the top portion of the glass, the watch is still water tight. Aside from that, I've had no problems and no reason to upgrade. However, I do like the new larger screen of the series 7 and the upgrades faces and features, so I'm contemplating upgrading.
Same here but I’m in a dilemma whether to get this one now or maybe stick it out too the 8 comes out. I have a feeling there might be more worthwhile upgrades to that🤔i don’t know, lol
you should talk about how apple deleted the exact same app that was available, offering a keyboard for the watch, and how they added it to their watchOS update soon after :)
That is one slick looking watch band! Congrats on the collaboration and great design!
I'm not even tech savvy and Marques makes these videos so entertaining
Just upgraded from the 38 mm series 3 Apple Watch to the 45 mm series 7 Apple Watch! Loving it!
I go running and leave my phone at home, so a larger screen watch is HUGE improvement for me and those of us into sports.
lmao, this is literally the opposite.
Yeah 20% “Huge” improvement 🤣
For anyone wondering, my Apple Watch came in. It’s the “midnight” color and I think it’s safe to say it’s basically black. Can’t even tell it’s not.
My series 7 45mm finally came today and it’s my first Apple Watch ⌚️
MKBHD : "Let's trademark a parallelogram" lol
Can’t wait for the 50mm Apple Watch 12
Can’t wait for the new iPhone integrated band so I can tie my phone to my forearm 😂
Why would you want a square apple watch? The design is perfect man
Agreed those square concepts were ugly change just for the sake of change is a bad idea. The concepts looked like a cheap Apple Watch knockoff.
I always thought I prefer big watches until I got 41 mm size Pixel Watch. After that when I switched to Apple I started preferring 41mm sized Apple Watches.
Series 4 is still the way to go for me. Maybe next year i will consider upgrading.
Tbh I have a series 1 and I can’t tell much difference between my watch and my bros series 7
@@Nemenis series 1 is usable but slow
@@Ryanink1 it’s a watch not a PC. You only really use it to look at the time or check bp which is hella rare
@@Nemenis well even to check simple notifications it is slow. I would have actually continued to use my
Series 1 but the battery expanded and blew out.
@@Ryanink1 I agree with that tho battery suck
This man , " at the risk of tanking this video and it's watch time."
Me: *a person who doesn't own any apple products and doesn't plan on getting one* Bigger screen you say hmm 🤔 what else is new. ( Continues to watch whole video)
Apple banned a developer who made a swipe keyboard for WatchOS and then stole his idea
I think Apple tried buying his idea, but the guy said no so Apple banned his watch app and stole it for themselves :/
That's f*ed up... Makes me wish somebody cyberattacks Apple (laughs in 15 year-old kid from Australia)
Typical day in the office
@@tylerkimble455 nah they sent him a message on why his app wasn’t allowed lol, after they approved his app.
@@Dior444L ahh okay
I really love you’re reviewers. I’m not on the market but you’re videos are always really good. I’ve had my AppleWatch SE for a little over a year and I love it and don’t see anything on the newer models worth switching for…in case anyone is in the market for a new watch
"I wear my wrist on my right wrist Event though I'm not a lefty" me too Marques, me too.
@3:50 iam pretty sure you are not supposed to read the numbers when telling the time but the position of the hands... numbers will always be in the same position assuming you correctly wear the watch.
No kidding. I got into a T-bone motorbike accident 3 months back. Apart from a few scratches on the screen and the case, the watch works miraculously well after an impact straight on the tarmac.. Most durable Apple Watch.. Maybe they're not just marketing words !! (Aluminium)
That intro is so sick!
I wear my watch on right wrist as well, and I'm not a lefty either. :)
You are absolutely right Marques, no "neutral" color in aluminum. I love the space black or graphite, and one can only hope that Apple adds it to their line-up next year.
I loved how perfect the Histogram on your T is!
I was waiting series 7 review, finally it’s here. Let’s go!
Just to clarify: 50m water resistance is NOT suitable for diving. It’s literally rated for swimming at surface level. Usually a watch with 30M WR actually is recommended for splashing while washing your hands at best, not to wear in the shower etc, so 50 is pretty much only for swimming. In theory it can handle the pressure from water 50 meters deep, but that’s with no motion whatsoever. So don’t dive with it folks, or at least, do it at your own risk.
Also pretty sure apples warrantee does not cover water damage 🤷🏼♂️
Was about to comment this. If that were true at that point Apple would just include dive computer software like the garmin descent does.
What was Apple thinking not making any neutral/monochrome colors available for the aluminium? Black bands for example are not going to look as good with the midnight colorway.
I think the blue is really fresh but I’m worried next years iPhone won’t have that same shade of blue when I’m ready to upgrade
Now you gotta get Stainless Steel bc the color-way’s are better 。 🤯
To entice you to spend more on a stainless steel or titanium version 🙄
That intro was too smooth, had to pause and praise💯💯🔥🔥
Marques, can you shows us the fall detection feature via your own testing? That would be a great video!
Pretty happy with my SE. Didn’t really need all the extra features of the numbered ones since it still tracks all my fitness stuff just fine still. Slapped a case on it and never worry about damaging it at work
Man keep your apple watch se battery health in the 6 sucks I lost almost 10% of the battery in less than a year my wife SE watch still on 99% I bought them at the same time
AppleCare+ for Apple Watch SE probably cost about as much as the case you put on it, and your case doesn't let you swap out your Apple Watch for a new/refurbished one once it's been scratched.
Probably bulky on the wrist
@@Alex121sm1 it's not about bulky literally it's the same watch same processor same battery that's why they removed the 6 just to sell the S7
“I wear my WRIST on my right WRIST”
Right, got it.
Bro I'm so happy there is finally someone who wears the watvh in the right wrist and a righty
That watch band hit me on the face even before I notice it's MKBHD related.. awesome design .. great material choice.. sadly I never use Apple watches. Hope moment and marquees do some designs for Android bands. 🙏🙏
I'm still using my Series 2. Have used it almost 27/7 for five years+! Think it might be time to upgrade :D.
Same 😇
I currently have a apple watch 4 and ive upgraded to the series 7 was hoping for a bigger reason to upgrade but i will take the bigger screen and faster charging
MKB has something good for us today. Good job bro. I am a big fan of ur tech videos. Rudolph.
Why does everyone want the square design to come to fruition ? I feel like that would be less comfortable to have on the wrist just like holding the new iPhones compared to the iPhone 11.
For the sake of having something different, that’s my guess
Their over priced so its not worth it. Apple's eco system is garbage.
it’s more conspicuous that you have the new model on when its design is so different from the previous one, which is a factor for people when upgrading their portable tech.
@@mencibenci yeah I get the hype of having the newest stuff. I just think people hear a rumor about it being square designed and don’t even think about if it’s even something they’d want.
For component layout it's much better. And I don't think it's uncomfortable since I hade boxier watches before. For iPhones I absolutely like the squared of design much more. I specifically have cases for all the rounded iPhone which make them squarer. But it just adds so much material to the sides.
I got one for my mom as a first time Apple Watch wearer, I think this is like several months later but getting her a green one, the colour is really barely noticeable unless it's direct sunlight, so if you're hoping for a bright pop it's not it...it's quite dull.
Second issue is that by getting her the smaller watch, battery life with probably the smallest amount of use is still pretty bad...it regularly drops like 20~ percent within a 3-4 hours being mostly idle and not even having always-on display on or even exercise or anything...just regular texts and some email notifications causes it to lose that much....I have an SE 44mm size and mine lasts a good long day easily.
So just something to be aware of (the smaller 41mm series 7 is so bad I've turned off the blood oxygen to try and save some battery life)
I think the display is the only thing that matters with Apple Watches by now. The rest just works as intended and everything additional seems a litte quirky to be honest
I only just recently go the Series 7, rather than the Series 8 that is available now, because it's cheaper and practically the same. But I wanted to say, the red version is a lot less bold than I thought it would be. Unless it's being under direct light, or bright sunlight, it's very dark, almost black.
So is no one going to talk about how good the red looks
Nope. It's red and aluminum. Whats the big deal? 🤷🏻♂️
Everyone talking about wrist on his wrist
Me thinking about event (even) 😂
Agree on the colors! I was in the market to upgrade from my 3 and went with the SE for the more neutral color. Price decrease was nice but I wanted the bigger screen.
My apple Watch series 7 is good, it's used and has some scratches but it's great
looking forward to getting my hands on one on Friday - pretty intrigued to see how it holds up in the surf compared to the 3 and the 6 (which I've been using for surf tracking for years), but tougher is always appreciated! SE still looks like the best value for sure though! 🤙
