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!

Bought a SE gen 1 (2020) for like $150 early this year after I did some research and found it’s barely any different from the gen 2. Note that with newer versions of watchOS this old watch has more features than it did at the time of its release, which causes many sources/reviews to underestimate it. For example it can track 4 stages of sleep just fine, not just 2 (awake/asleep). The relevant hardware is actually the same as in the gen 2.

Battery lasts almost 2 days. I’m happy with it.
