I’m thinking of buying an Apple SE3 one. Anyone have one and any good? Never had a smartwatch before.

I have one but I dont use it for all the apps

Its handy when youre driving to see who's whatsapped me by looking at the watch instead of the phone

Then I use it to count my steps everyday and tell the time

That's it

Yeah they are pretty good. Have one myself and they are pretty reasonable too. I do work in Apple actually and get a 17% discount of all products (don't worry, I don't actually get any reward for this or bonus!) So if anyone ever wants anything, feel free to ping me

The battery life is terrible on most of the apple ones as they are max 2 to 3 days.

Have a look at the amazefit ones as they are better priced and longer battery life and they do rugged versions for the outdoor types. Some have battery life of 2 to 3 weeks

Depends on what you want to do with it really, but they can become very distracting buzzing on your wrist all the time so I abandoned mine and went back to an old school proper watch,and I have a fitness band which doesn't have a screen or buzz to track health metrics.

If you get one my only advice is don't set up a family group on it - everyone gets notified when you exercise - its not good when you're getting down to business lol - "_hegoatest just did 3 minutes of vigorous exercise"

What do you want to use it for? I bought a redmi active 5 for €35 for a relative and it does everything Bog uses his Samsung for. Might be a good started one to see if you’re into it before dropping €250.

Similar. I bought a Fitbit charge four years ago and it tells me the time, displays messages and taps on pay terminals as well as the fitness and sleep tracking.

Way cheaper and no difference for me

A lot for me also is the comfort of fit. Some of those smartwatches have a big screen and kinda awkward on the wrist.

think SE3 around 240 which is not bad for an Apple Watch. A lot in high hundreds and more
