Will there be an Apple Watch SE 3rd gen? (alien.top)

Since the SE’s have followed a two year upgrade cycle so far, would it be safe to say that the 3rd generation will come out next year (2024)?

Should I get the 2nd gen now or wait for 3rd gen? The 2.5 hours charging time is a bit off putting.

If you are okay with foregoing the idea of sleep tracking with the watch, you can charge overnight. The SE is probably the best value smartwatch by Apple or any other company. If you do want Fitbit in a less than $350 ish device, I’d say fitbits do an amazing job with that (better than Apple and Garmin) while doing some other things well too, though they aren’t really smart watches (more like fitness trackers).

What do you like about the fitbit?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I like both the Apple Watch and Fitbit. The things I like about the Fitbit are

  1. the battery life (about a week with the Charge 6, or 10 days with the Inspire 3),

  2. the sleep tracking (fully automatic sleep tracking without having to sleep within scheduled sleep hours or a sleep mode enabled like with Apple and Garmin),

  3. and the simplicity of having all my data and Fitbit info in one app (with Apple, I have 4 apps for it: Apple health, fitness app, the Watch app, and a third party app AutoSleep.
