Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) [GPS 40mm] Smartwatch with Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band S/M. Fitness & Sleep Tracker, Crash Detection, Heart Rate Monitor
I have this watch synced with the following : Tessie Google assistant Govee home products Monster lighting products Google nest cameras Blink cameras Watch cam app
It is absolutely seamless. I can say “hey siri, open rear trunk with Tessie “ if my hands are full with dogs/groceries.
I can say “hey siri, pull up doorbell camera” using the “watch cam” app for 3$
I can use google assistant to control my Govee devices by saying “hey siri, hey Google turn on bedroom lights to blue” It is an extra 2 words but not that bad 😉
“Hey siri, turn on bedroom heater”
I bought this mainly to be able to use my tesla (climate, frunk and trunk) without even pulling my phone out. This is next level car control. I then realized I could connect it to my house automations and it spiraled from there .
The other features , to be simply described as mirroring your phone (texts calls photos music etc) is flawless. Perfectly designed and easy. I love the keyboard you draw the word and it transcribes into text, it’s very very easy.
The heart rate steps etc are also great info to have . Just fun to study.
I have my face set as a custom modular face incorporating : Heartbeat Clock and date Google nest cameras Tesla control
Amazing ! Battery life gets me thru whole day with plenty to spare . Charges fast too. Easy peasy. Great purchase. Light on the wrist too.

Well made, useful, okay battery (I can get through an entire day easily), and has a ton of features to make it useful. I got these watches for my mom and sister as well, they’re not necessarily a must have but i very much enjoy having it. Also, it’s not a top of the line model but I’m hard on it (unintentionally…I have horses and work in animal rescue on top of my “real” job…it takes a beating) and I have no issues with the body or function. I use screen protectors but no bumper on it, and it still looks brand new.

I bought the Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) [GPS 40mm] Smartwatch for my wife so she can track her steps, monitor sleep pattern, and for many of the other great features. This watch worked perfectly until one sad day. She took off the watch to complete her before bed routine, and unfortunately she hit the watch off the vanity with her elbow. The corner of the watch hit the tile floor and cracked the screen. It was a fluke, as I have dropped mine many times without issue, however I purchased a protective cover for mine. She tried a protective cover from my two pack purchase, but thought is was to dark, being the privacy screen type. Ordered a clear one, but even with Amazon two day shipping, to little to late. Safe to say the watch is not waterproof anymore.
We did not buy the added protection since my 5 year old Apple watch has a scratch or two but working just fine, but from day one I used a protective case. Unfortunately, to fix her watch screen. out of pocket is the same price of a new watch of the same model on sale. A clear protective case makes the watch somewhat functional, at least it tells accurate time.
I still highly recommend the Apple Watch SE, just please consider buying a protection plan or quality cover to avert any accidental mishap.

I recently upgraded to the Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen), and let me tell you—it’s a game-changer! Here’s why I’m smitten: Sleek Design: The Starlight Aluminum Case is like a moonbeam on my wrist. It’s lightweight, comfortable, and oh-so-stylish. Whether I’m at the gym or a fancy dinner, it fits right in. Neutral Elegance: The Starlight Sport Band is my go-to. The soft, neutral color pairs effortlessly with any outfit. No more clashing with my wardrobe—just understated elegance. Customizable Faces: Ah, the joy of changing watch faces! From classic analog to vibrant digital, I switch it up based on my mood. The infograph modular face keeps me organized during work hours, while the Mickey Mouse face adds whimsy when I’m off-duty. Fitness and Health: The SE doesn’t skimp on features. It tracks my steps, heart rate, and even reminds me to breathe (because adulting is hard). Plus, it’s water-resistant, so I can swim without worry. Battery Life: I charge it overnight, and it lasts me through the day. No frantic midday charging sessions—just reliable performance. Affordable Luxury: The SE gives you all the Apple Watch goodness without breaking the bank. At just $249, it’s a steal. In summary, the Apple Watch SE is my trusty sidekick. It’s easy to use, endlessly customizable, and a fashion statement rolled into one. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast or a style aficionado, this smartwatch won’t disappoint. 🛒 Time to elevate your wrist game! ⌚✨

I had a series 2 and this was a perfect upgrade from that. The functionality has been updated and the responsiveness had made it much easier to use and the battery life is much improved from previous versions. The all black case looks really nice with all the bands I currently have. For the price, this watch feels like it should be more expensive than it is. The durability has also been really good as I have been hiking in the rain with it and it did accidentally drop on a tile floor and did not even have a scratch. I have yet to run across a negative so far and I have had it for a couple months.

The midnight aluminum case and midnight sport band look so sleek and stylish on the wrist. The GPS feature has been a game changer for my runs and hikes – it’s so accurate and easy to use. I also love the fitness and sleep tracking features, it’s great to see my progress and stay motivated. The crash detection and heart rate monitor are also really reassuring, it’s great to know I’ve got an extra layer of safety.
The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because the battery life could be better. I find myself needing to charge it every day and a half, which can be a bit annoying. But overall, I’m really happy with this watch and would definatly recomend it to anyone looking for a reliable and feature-packed smartwatch. Also, the integration with my iPhone is seamless.

I already have 7 months with it, and it works very well. I don’t use it to track my sleep but I use it to track my exercise and it does it well. It has to be charged every night but besides that it is amazing.

Bought this for my girlfriend cause she just got an Ipohne 14 and she mentioned kidna wanting a watch, but wasn’t too sure. I didn’t want to spend 500 on something she wasnt sure about, also, thankfully she’s not into the bigger 45mm sizes, so I said I’ll buy this and then we’ll see and we can get a newer generation. and I was scared at first, cause of the reviews and the battery deal and blah, blah. But it looks so cool. You can even put your own camera pictures as a background. and the battery lasts a long time. She used it all day and didn’t charge it over night and the next day, her battery was at 16%. It’s so cool, it’s got me contemplating to buy one. Also, I did get the 2 year apple insurance deal. Just to keep peace of mind. Coming from someone who normally hates on apple stuff, especially iphones, I gotta say I like this better than the samsung watches. Haha. Definitely worth the money.

I got the 40 mm size and it is plenty big enough. It’s a great smart watch with intuitive controls. The only downside I can see is the battery only gets me through one day, which admittedly I knew before I bought. Overall great watch from Apple!

Great watch, but four stars because I didn’t realize when we bought it that you couldn’t use the ECG feature with the SE. I would have bought a different Apple watch if I had realized.
