Right here we have the Apple Watch SE, and much like the iPhone SE from 2020, this phone doesn't have any super exciting feature that really makes it stand out, and yet it might be the best purchase for the everyday person most people out there looking to buy a smartwatch. This might be the one to buy in 2020, there's a lot of really good stuff about this watch but there's also a couple things you want to be aware of what was cut out, what's not included in this watch and what this watch is incapable of doing.
In Apple Watch SE the first thing to note is that this one comes in two sizes that are exactly the same sizes as every other Apple Watch between the four, the five and the six and that means if you buy this one, nobody's going to know that you saved almost $150 on the SE version, because it's going to look so similar to the flagship Apple Watch Series 6 now. There are a couple colors but they're all going to come in aluminum so if you're looking for a more premium material, you would have to buy the Apple Watch six, but I think aluminum is really not a big deal when you're looking at this watch. It's a classic rectilinear Apple design. Now on the right side we have our little digital crown as you spin that you can navigate throughout the watch interface. It also acts as a button that has your back button your home button, your menu button, it does all of those depending on where you are and I'll show you the interface later on in the video. And then below that on the right side we have a microphone and below that, we actually have a button. It does things like open up the apps you have available and if you can also control the power menu and things like that.
Now, on the left side is watch, we have a speaker and if you flip it over, you'll see on the back we have our heart rate diodes there, so it is able to measure your heart rate for workouts and stuff like that, but it does not have blood oxygen, in order to have an ECG, which I know for most people, ECG is really not an issue. I think that's really going to be something for people over the age of, maybe 50 or anybody who has heart disease in their family. So maybe you want to get to watch six in that situation. But I think a lot of people like myself, are a little bit less concerned about getting an ECG on a watch. Now the blood oxygen is a little bit of a drawback because that's something to watch could use for some more advanced fitness tracking.
This watch has 32 gigabytes of storage onboard which is great for lots of apps, for lots of saving music on here podcast, photos, whatever you want to do you really not limited by the storage that you might be on some other competitive watches. This Watch has Bluetooth to connect to earbuds or to your phone. It also has Wi Fi, it has GPS for tracking workouts, It has NFC for making payments with Apple Pay, and you could get the LTE version of this one. And then really the last thing to note about this physically is the water resistance is good for up to 50 meters, so if you're going surfing or swimming or whatever you're doing this watch should have absolutely no problem. Now before we get into the features in the operating system of this watch, which is really the bread and butter of the Apple Watch is what it does so well.
So now let's get into the pros and cons of the Apple watch and see to figure out who this watch is actually form.
PROS
The first one is the interface and the integration. So if you were using the apple ecosystem, you probably already know just how well everything integrates and by far the best one with the interface is going to be the Apple Watch. It does integrates so well with your iPhone, it has so many features that are just really, really well made for this watch and a lot of the apps out there are very tailored to this as well. So, the interface of course is going to be great, the ecosystem is great, and the chipset on here is very powerful. That's a big plus as well, because it's not quite as powerful as the Apple Watch six, but it is still very powerful so you should have no problem with speed 32 gigabytes onboard means you can store tons of music and podcasts and anything you want to do. If you're going for a run offline, you can easily, listen to, hours and hours of music.
CONS
The limitation there is going to be battery life. So overall, it's a really great watch but it does come with a few drawbacks, you want to be aware of the first one is actually like I said this watch does not have ECG or blood oxygen capability, so if that's important to you, this is probably not the watch for you. Now, a kind of small drawback here I would recommend getting a case for this because if you look at it kind of like the galaxy watch active 2. For example, the face is the outermost plane so you don't have any kind of bezel sticking up around it to protect the screen, which means if you're rock climbing or doing anything more intense, it is likely that you would scratch the screen, so I definitely recommend getting some kind of plastic cover or case to protect your watch.
So a few other kind of minor drawbacks with this watch one of them is that it doesn't have an always on display. The Apple Watch six does, this one does not and being that you have sleep analytics on here, you might want to be tracking your sleep, which means at some point in the day probably every day, you have to find 60 to 90 minutes to charge this backup because the battery life. From my experience, it only lasts about a day and a half. So, reasonable but definitely not that impressive.
In conclusion, the Apple Watch SE is a fantastic watch I highly recommend it to the vast majority of people out there who have an iPhone and are looking for an everyday watch to track your workouts, to track your health, to have notifications and just be more productive on a day to day basis, it really is an excellent watch in that aspect. Now, there are a few people that this watch, I really wouldn't recommend them to. So first of all, anybody who is wearing a suit and really trying to dress up and look fancy, obviously it's kind of a plane design here, I would probably recommend some other watches out there that would look a little bit better.
Secondly, anyone who's looking for a really long battery life, if you just hate charging it or if you plan on really going off the grid there are other watches that I recommend ahead of this, one and a half day battery is not especially impressive. And then lastly anybody who's really trying to go into some intense analytics on their workouts if they're trying to train for something more intense than just your everyday runner, if you're trying to do a triathlon or stuff like that, this might not be the best watch for you but it definitely can get the job done, don't get me wrong, but of course there are some better ones that are more durable and more capable out there.
