This Apple Watch model is my favorite and I use it every day – at the moment it is over a 30% discount

Apple's popular watch devices are available in several models, and the Watch SE (2nd generation) is still the latest basic model clock that comes onto the market. Although Apple unveiled the Watch Series 10 in September 2024, the SE was not upgraded as originally rumored. It is not packed with all the functions of Series 9 or 10, does not offer the value for those who pursue basic health and fitness metrics effortlessly and want to benefit from the connection to the Apple ecosystem.

It has proven to be great to pursue my workouts, steps and other health metrics, and it was a great introduction to sleeping.

This only applies to the 40 -mm model with star, midnight or denim sports band. The 44mm Apple Watch SE (2. Gen) is also offered for sales for 199 US dollars. This is not quite as low as I saw the watches in turnover from Black Friday (where it was sold for 149 US dollars), but before this drop in prices, the Watch SE had not seen many discounts at all, so this 32% area range is solid.

If you are not looking for the advanced functions that are offered in the newer models of Series 9, 10 or Ultra and Ultra 2, the clock SE is a great purchase with all important basics. You would be surprised how well this model is compared to the other Apple competitors.

The SE offers users up to 18 hours of battery life and 32 GB of internal memory. It offers some of the same health and security features as Series 9, 10 and Ultra, although it does not pursue a blood oxygen, carries out EKG heart checks or checks their temperature.

During Black Friday's turnover last year, I improved from the 3 Apple Watch series to the 40 -mm -se model, and I have never been more satisfied with a tech purchase. The SE has all the necessary functions without the complicated frills that I didn't want (or needed) – but it offers a crispy display, a quick return rate and seamless use.
