Great video. I picked up a couple of tips; even though I have been using this watch for more than a year. What I can’t find out anywhere, is why my day and date info only appears sometimes. It is correct on both the iPhone and watch but not always showing on the watch. Calendar is set up on the iPhone, but when I go into Settings on the watch, Calendar doesn’t appear. I hope you can help me. Thank you Chris
I am looking and looking. I have a 2020 SE and its battery health is down to 84% so I bought a Series 8 the other day, but I don't get notifications on my new watch and the old one seems to be the main watch still. Also I want to use the new watch to pay with like I could with the old SE... but I can't find those infos
@@visibletoallusersonyt yeah i have a usb c cable and no slow usb c power brick. Unfortunately the knockoff charging pad didnt charge slowly, it just got really hot and probably damaged the battery a bit. Not having charging speed control really sucks.
Hello Dion, how to I put a passcode on the Apple Watch while wearing it on my wrist? Like once I lock the watch a passcode pops up to unlock it. Thank you in advance!
Hi, best is to set up a focus mode (like do not disturb) on your iPhone, set it manually before going to sleep or insert a time frame, it will automatically transfer over to your Apple Watch
This video is really what I was looking for to help me set up my new apple watch 8 series that I got 2 days ago. Thank u so much for making this video. Love it
Hello. The GMT watchface has a number of colour choices, including the dual colour choices. However, the colour combination I would like is not there. The dual-coloured options are helpful to highlight Day against Night for a given timezone. I'd like to see a dual colour choice of darkblue for night & light blue for day. Is it possible to create/add/edit the dual colours?
I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and an Apple Watch series 3 and will soon be upgrading my watch to the series 8 my series 3 Apple Watch doesn't have LTE but the series 8 I am getting will
I just got my watch. After wearing a few hours, everything is on giant letters and the screen is unaccessible. I’ve tried holding the side buttons to shut down to no avail. How can I just get it back to the original face. I have that selected on the App but nothing happens. I had no issues with my 4. Not loving this so far.
Hi I have a question. I have never had an apple watch and I'm thinking about getting one. Would you do a video of showing each app and what they do? I don't have an apple store near me to go look at one
Your beginning GMT watch face has your monogram on it but that’s not an option for me on my watch. It also wasn’t an option when you edited yours i in the video. How?
Thank you Dion for your informative video it’s very helpful. I want to up grade my Apple Watch I will always watch your videos because you explain it so simply and useful too🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hii Mr Dion ☺️ It’s me again.. I really love to see this video I watch all your videos in time and also I’ll be keep watching ur vdeo cuz it makes me know more about ur videos… I also like this watch but I can’t afford 🥺 Okay keep uploading, keep shining….💫
Hi. I received an Apple watch 8, but I can't see my HR directly on the watch face, there is only a Heart (app) icon. Any ideas how to make live HR pulse visible? Thanks
Wow 😮THANK YOU I JUST Received my Apple Watch Series 8 and it’s so cool however I didn’t know what the heck I was doing lol so I logged onto your RUclips and I’m very grateful. Thank you. 👍🏽👍🏽😊
Great video; thanks. Btw, I fully agree about the braided solo loop band; it's super comfortable. I kind of overlooked it at first but a couple months after I got my watch I bought one and seem to wear it more than the others now. Someone kind of described it perfectly: 'It's the stretch pants of Apple Watch bands'. Makes sense, right? Who doesn't like a nice pair of comfortable stretch pants. :-)
@@martyx6324 Well, it's difficult to give a specific answer. How wet? And what is the weather? It seems to dry pretty well. I've 'helped it along' with a hair dryer and it also seems to dry OK while wearing it. I've only gotten it a little wet, you know while washing dishes or washing my hands. I don't shower or swim with it.
Hi, I have heard this point before and I do have slowed down a bit, but not enough for some. At the same time I have my natural rhythm that makes me feel comfortable. One suggestion is to play the video at a lower speed, 0.75 for example. That often helps.
I recently was in a motor vehicle accident, I didn't even have a cell phone on me. As i am still recovering I bought a serries 8 Apple watch. I like the crash and fall detection. A great piece of mind.
@devanshmalikk Banger as usual Dion! I have two questions...is the cellular version worth it or one rarely uses it's potential? And second what about the series 7 which is available at lower prices?
Hi Devansh, thanks for your feedback. As far as your questions is concerned: in most cases I think that the cellular version is not worth it. I did some videos on the 7 and 8. If the price difference is not too big I would go for the 8 (longer software support and it has some nice new functionalities)
@tematotherescue my wife got her se2 40mm yesterday and I gotta say that most of these tips are actually true for that model as well. pretty much the video we needed to get started with the watch, thanks!
I just got my Apple Watch Series 8 today on July 27, 2024 refurbished from Amazon for only $257.35 after taxes. That is a really good deal for an Apple 🍎 Watch
What is your favourite Apple Watch feature? 🤔
Always on display
Customization tips were so useful!
@theoahb
My favorite feature of the Apple Watch is the ability to easily switch between apps
series 2
Definitely the always on display
Got mine today. This video was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Dion!

Great video man. The 8 was my first apple watch ever so this is much appreciated.
Me too and I love it!

Best strap colour ❤

I just brought my first apple 8 watch. I’m like a kid in the candy store. Thank you for sharing.
Where buy straps ?
Thanks for the info! I go for maximum energy saving. I also bought a slow charger to be nicer to the battery.
the slow charger is not from apple and heats up the watch much more. be careful with what you buy in this case!
I would recommend buying a slow charging brick over a slow cord
@@visibletoallusersonyt yeah i have a usb c cable and no slow usb c power brick. Unfortunately the knockoff charging pad didnt charge slowly, it just got really hot and probably damaged the battery a bit. Not having charging speed control really sucks.
Yes, this is a fabulous watch. My biggest problem is finding a beautiful band that fits my 5.2" wrist! Thanks for this video.
Hi Liz, my pleasure!
Hello Dion, how to I put a passcode on the Apple Watch while wearing it on my wrist? Like once I lock the watch a passcode pops up to unlock it. Thank you in advance!
Hi, by default Apple requires a passcode each time you take off your watch, but perhaps I do not get your question 100%
Bro is samsung watch ecg is as accurate as apple one?
Hi, I do not know as I have not compared the ECG functions
Hi! What’s the best setting or mode for your watch during the night, if you intend to wear it and so it doesn’t do anything.
Hi, best is to set up a focus mode (like do not disturb) on your iPhone, set it manually before going to sleep or insert a time frame, it will automatically transfer over to your Apple Watch

You're very welcome!
is this watch 41mm or 45 mm? pls answer
41 mm
I just upgraded to a 45 mm
Fewer complications...it's fewer if you can count them.
Great video, thanks. Newbie on apple watch, need to know a lot 😊
Thank you for your advice :) very helpful
You're so welcome!
His video really helped me today on July 27, 2024
Didn’t know it can turn orientation for left handed.
Thank you!!! It was worth the watch
personalization of apple watch is one of its most impressive features.
I just purchased my Series 8 today. Awesome video! Very helpful! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
You can also swipe on the keyboard, works smooth!
Brilliant. Helps a lot 👏👏
Apple should just link straight to this video.
:)
Thanks Dion.
Hi Ron, my pleasure
Very informative video for someone has never owned an apple watch....
20:40 is uncensored 😬
I recommend changing the code to something different
I know, I did already. Thanks!
How is it that your control burrow is on the lower lefts? Mine is upper right
ah, that is because I am lefthanded and wear my watch upside down. Sorry for the confusion!
Hi Dion would you buy the black nike Silikon band or the normal black Silikon band ?
Thank you for this
How do you make the current heart rate to show up on the watch face instead of just the heart logo?

Hehe boi ! I figured out your watch passcode now I just need to travel across the seas to find it!
problem was noted and solved, but thanks anyhow!
Thanks for the video
I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and an Apple Watch series 3 and will soon be upgrading my watch to the series 8 my series 3 Apple Watch doesn't have LTE but the series 8 I am getting will
This is so cool. I will have to watch and listen to this again and again. Also, I will share this info.
Thanks, please do!
New owner of an apple watch series 8, really love its features 😊
Enjoy!!
My fave is the always on display wc is limited to very few smart watches in the market right now.

Perfect timing, literally got mine yesterday 😭
My 8 will be here in 2 days I’m updating from the original watch and I can’t wait
Fully understand. Enjoy!!
Quite informative video
How to increase speaker volume in series 8 whilst talking via watch not able to see that option
you should be able to scroll on the Digital Crown to adjust the volume
@enelraguri I like the animation of captions😊
This was such a useful video for me I literally followed along with it with my new watch so thank you
I just bought one I had a s7 got rid of it now I’m waiting on my s8 the screen is very fragile
Love from India ❤
Warm greetings from London!
Where I can buy this same band you have please? Love the video too!
That particular band in that color is no longer available, but other similar ones are on the Apple website
Sir I am using series 7 44 mm which belt are you using ? I like that brown red colour
Hi, yes, many people comment on that band but it is not for sale anymore :(
Your beginning GMT watch face has your monogram on it but that’s not an option for me on my watch. It also wasn’t an option when you edited yours i in the video. How?
mm, I do not think I have my monogram on it
GMT is the best. Thank you ❤

Very awesome! Thanks for the tips!

Is the apple watch 8 compatible with iPhone 6s plus?
Sorry for the late reaction! The Apple Watch Series 8 requires an iPhone 8 or later with iOS 16 or later. So, the answer is no.
