To all SE Users i am Kind of new to the Apple Watch And i wanted to buy one for Christmas. Now I am sceptical of the battery life and how long it needs to charge I was and it’s missing features in comparison to the newer watches, now I was thinking about buying an Apple Watch Series 8 because it is in kind of the same price category and has more features but I am not able to find one that guarantees that it is waterproof because most refurbished websites don’t offer a guaranteed waterproof watch. No, I am wondering if some of you guys could just share me your information of how you like your Apple Watch SE and how it impacted your life and maybe know where to get a series 8 :D thanks!

So I know that price is the motivating factor here but a watch isn’t like a phone you swap out every couple years. I would definitely not buy a previous years model, and further, after getting a S9 myself, I think the new Double Tap gesture is going to become a major user input tool going forward, and I wouldn’t want to buy something that I’m planning on using for the next five years that cannot do what is bound to be an integral part to the UI/UX in subsequent OS updates.

I’d do whatever you can to splurge for the 9, just to future proof your purchase as much as possible
