Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) 6 Months Later!

[@GregsGadgets]

If you think the Apple Watch SE is right for you, consider using my affiliate link to purchase one: amzn.to/3AB8OE4 Thank you 🙏

[@muhaimin8233]

i bought the se 4 days ago and i love it. its glass and material around the watch is pretty strong and the battery easily lasts me a whole day with 50% left while using all the features.

[@jerricandres6422]

I bought my watch se 2 last month and it's the best decision for me. low cost, does everything I need and keeps track of my fitness. Love it!

[@SheepQW]

Is it accurate like tracking calories and also is it good for running swim?? How’s the battery?

[@YvetteinBoca]

I have had my SE for 6 mths also. I upgraded from a series 3 with cellular. I agree with you 100%. SE is all you need and at a great price.

[@mbbranches]

Your SE is cellular like the series 3? How many hours can you have with cellular on in the SE?

[@YvetteinBoca]

@@mbbranches I don’t believe it comes in a cellular version.

[@christinawright3148]

The SE 2nd Generation is available in cellular. AT&T had a buy one/get one free and I got my 12 year old the SE for free. He was going to get my old watch, but I couldn’t pass up the deal to get him the SE!

[@boranklnc]

My 4 year old apple watch 3 is broken and Im looking forward to buy one.This was the most useful video I have watched in the last couple of days.Thanks man

[@Tico_vic]

Just ordered it today, I know I’m late but honestly just need it when my phone isn’t at hand and basic features hopefully it’s worth it! Thanks😊

[@holsteincowboy]

Do you have to have a iPhone in your pocket to use this watch or can you use it as a stand alone watch ?

[@SebastianSteele]

If you buy cellular, yes. If you get GPS, no.

[@DomingoBaezBarranco-zx8ry]

I had the first génération or SE, and now the second. The rhythm of release is perfect, two years between each model, I appreciate much more each improvment. And the first one is still used by someone else!

[@mikeske9777]

Having heart disease and over 65 years old I looked hard at the Apple Watch SE but I went up to the Series 8 when I bought. I just feel I have an important need to have the blood oxygen and ECG that the Series 8 or for that matter the Series 7 also have. I used a veterans discount of 10% off when I bought my watch. After losing a close friend to a AFIB event with him having a stroke at 49 I just wish he would have listened to me and bought himself an Apple Watch with the ECG function.

I have the first Gen SE and I don’t have any complaints or reason to upgrade other than faster charging. I have been looking at used 7 or 8 off of Facebook marketplace or similar to get the fast charge. But I figure I will probably wait until the next one to see what comes out that may be worth upgrading for.

[@HollaatyourboyJ]

I own both the SE 2 and the Ultra but i tend to wear the SE 2 most of the time and use the Ultra only if im on long vacay esp in countries that arent so safe if you wear expensive watches or doing some sort of activity whether its trekking or boating. Aside from these, day to day i use my SE 2. I find it much better also to run with due to its small and light frame. Makes a good watch too when you plan on double wristing lol

[@blacklily250]

Why not buy multiple ultra when you’re in long vacay? Only seem logical solution here.

[@HollaatyourboyJ]

@@blacklily250 i actually sold all my apple watches and purchased the Garmin Epix pro gen 2. figured just get 1 watch to do everything esp since im pushing fitness level up so its a great tool plus of course cant compare battery life lol

[@annar233]

[@Dan29203]

The SE? How has it been so far?

[@matthewavlogs7062]

I have the first gen Apple Watch SE. and I love it but one thing that I wish I had is that always on display to see the time at a glance with out having to turn on Apple Watch

[@ivanlalala100]

bought an iPhone 15 pro max (first apple product i ever had) and a watch SE 2, and after checking all the details on the watch I am very happy I did not buy the series 9 cause I dont use/need ECG, body temperature or blood oxygen... dont care about the always on display on a watch, and battery lasts the same Until theres a HUGE advancement on battery life in a new lineup, I dont think i will change it The ultra makes sense for the battery life and titanium rugged durability performance, but the price difference is just too much for those extra features that I value

[@LeeLee-ux8gh]

I got my SE yesterday and freaking love it!!

[@JTemperance]

How was it 2 months latee? Im planning on buying my first apple watch or first airpods

[@ChesterFoster]

Great video. The SE Gen2 is an amazing watch. Worth the money. I have both Apple Watch SE (Gen1) and Ultra. When I went to trade in my cellular SE Gen1 Apple offered me 70 dollars 😢. So I kept it and wear it when I’m charging my ultra once every 2 days.

[@ShasieTarot]

This looks like a perfect watch for me as it would be my first Apple Watch, just wish it had KZbin studio app capability

[@letty88]

Thanks for sharing was debating between the SE 2 and and Series 8!!!

[@dimitarkovacev179]

I have it. It’s good, but I am disappointed with glass quality. It scratches incredibly easily!

[@mathhias8867]

when i see the bazels of SE and series 8/9 i found the screen most beautiful in the series 8/9 and im in a weelchair so maybe always on display can be good for me when im moving, i dont know i hesitate between SE and 9

[@wtrdogg20]

I recently got mine, 44mm, switching from Samsung Galaxy Watch. I gotta say the Apple Watch SE is all I need now and complementation to my iPhone 13. It has all the features I use very often and more. I got it from Amazon in Prime Deal for 229.00. I really don´t need the always on display (not having the screen on all the time saves battery) and I don't chat much on the watch, I just need the notifications. So far so good, I don't feel I am missing any feature. ECG or Blood Oxigen, thank God I have no cardiovascular problems and the last time I used a Blood Oxigen sensor was during the pandemic, and I used the one included in my old Samsung Galaxy S9, only real time it was useful hahaha. I totally recommed the Apple Watch SE, good enough for most people looking for a Great watch to pair with their iPhone.

[@Ela9292]

great review 🎉

[@brittany1539]

Where did u get the yellow band for ur Apple Watch? It looks comfy and looks like it just slips on!

[@bren.nan_]

are the thicker bezels noticeable during daily use? i handed down my series 7 to my brother, and am thinking of getting a new one to replace it but don't want to spend the money on a series 8. would the SE be a viable choice?

[@tombridge1225]

Thank you. I currently have a Series 3 watch and I am looking to upgrade. Whilst I do have health issues, mainly due to age, I am not convinced that all the health monitoring features of the Series 8 would be of significant value to me. This review has certainly swung me to spend the lesser amount of money, and get the SE. 👍🏼

[@jodiisser2803]

[@chocpch]

Coming back to Apple after being with Samsung for 10+ years, the SE 2 has been perfect for me. I have a Fitbit Versa 3 that I still love but my Apple Watch is a great alternative for every day wear

[@pbft.j]

What really sold me on getting the SE 2 over a series 7 (cost reasons) is the fact that it EVEN HAS CRASH DETECTION. I'm surprised you didn't mention this! All of the watches in this lineup have crash detection, which is great if you don't have the opportunity to upgrade to an iPhone 14 yet. That was important to me.

[@Rext-s9g]

If it does not have cellular who and how will the Watch call ?

[@pbft.j]

@@Rext-s9g Any celular device, regardless of if it's connected to a service or not, can call emergency services using the closest tower to its location. I'm not 100% sure if the non-cellular version can do that, however, you would more than likely have your phone with you because your watch doesn't have cellular lol The watch would still be connected to that either way and would call emergency services using bluetooth (if it didn't automatically have emergency service calls vía celular). Only the iPhone 14 lineup has crash detection. I'm sure that most people that buy the cheap Apple Watch SE 2 will not have an iPhone 14. I think having the same crash detection on your wrist when your phone may not have it at all is super cool.

[@christopherbrown3443]

I’ve had my se2 since it’s release. I got the cellular version and I love it. I’ve had several fitness trackers and other brands smart watches over the years. The se2 is better at everything than my previous watches/trackers.

[@Konstantina123]

I will get the Apple Watch se 2 but I have an iPhone 6s Plus updated to 15.8 will it connect to the Apple Watch?

Was originally planning on getting the SE2 as my first Apple Watch, but ended up with the Starlight 41 Nike Series 7. Lucky to have an Apple Store within a 15 minute drive, so I could try on all colours, sizes and models. Went in thinking I'd go for the darker colour, but surprised myself when I preferred the lighter one. Absolutely love it!

[@JAYSTARO]

I just got an SE I’m learning it and I had to get the guy who sold it to me to turn off Find My but I only paid $85 for this and the warranty expires in March of next year so all I had to do was buy a band for it and it came with a protective cover. I’m ecstatic

Does the screen scratch more easily than the series 8?

[@michelejp69]

Buy a screen protector, then it won’t matter - they all scratch.

[@WatchDSSID]

I was originally attracted to the Ultra for its 2 / 3 day battery life, but I eventually realised that if the SE can cope with ALL my requirements in a single day (which it does) then it’s easier (and MUCH cheaper) to have a routine of daily overnight (optimised) charging, rather than an “erratic” routine of every few days.

[@Crazyguy_123MC]

I’ve been looking at getting an Apple Watch and this video helped me know which one I should get. The SE has pretty much everything I need. I wanted to get one to track my fitness as well as time and weather when I don’t have my phone right next to me. It would also help for quick looks so I wouldn’t need to pull my phone out all the time. I think this is the one I’m going with probably in a few months when some stores have sales on electronics.

[@DanangAlta]

I got one too for $90. I will not spend more than $100 for any apple device since they roll out firmware updates that brick the device. I have not looked at anything Apple since my 5S got bricked from a firmware update, it destroyed the battery upon restart and would not hold a charge even with the usb cable attached, that was ten years ago. I've owned so many samsung devices and i can say they've never done that to any of the devices I've owned.

When we switched to Verizon, they made me trade in my series 4 for the SE 2. I didn’t think the battery life was as good and it doesn’t have the EKG app. I was very disappointed. So, I purchased a series 8 and I am happy again. Don’t even ask me what I think about Verizon! So sorry we switched.

[@denniss1211]

As a leading reviewer ... you REALLY need to talk to several older (like me at 80) who need the SE... WHY? Because we don't really need the workout support... we need a fall detection and call for help with cell in case the phone is not close by. That call on a fall could be a real life saver. I really doubt you thought of that! I think you could do a full program on older users!

I hear what you're saying, but I decided to go for the Series 9 in the end. The always on feature, as mentioned by another commentator, is going to be useful. If I want to look at the time, I just want to look at the time. But also I decided that I probably want the extra health features too. It occurred to me that all the reviews I was seeing were from young, fit men - nothing wrong with that - but as I am not young, fit or male, I decided to splash out on the more premium model. Whether it will be worth it is yet to be determined (it's being delivered this week). It is a significant extra outlay.

[@radenmulyadi2589]
