I thought about upgrading to Ultra 2 but finding it hard to justify. I still get a day use out of the battery.

I dont see reason to upgrade. People get too into wanting whats newest, when what they have still works. In this economy, use what you have till it dies vs buying into consumption. Ive seen soo much consumption with people these days.

Bought the SE2 last year and it is brilliant. I just wish it had a keyboard, but other than that, it’s perfect

Yep still have SE 1. Battery life I still fine, I’ll upgrade next year though.

Bought myself an 8th gen and my gf a current SE at the same time. At first she was thrilled. Now she sees little differences and is jealous of the features of the 8, but she’d never buy herself an Apple Watch, so… she gets what she gets. 🤷🏻‍♂️

i am! i love it

[–] m0Bo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Still got my original se, works great

[–] Sad_Abbreviations575@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

i have s5 and s4, both randomly unpaired from my phone

[–] clintdawgjohnson@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I have an SE. I enjoy it. I wish it included a keyboard.

[–] butterflypup@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

SE2. I didn’t want a chunky watch. I like it. It lasts 2 days easily.

[–] DepartureMoist9277@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nope, but I do own a Series 4 44 mm.

[–] Basic-Afternoon65@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Still on my WatchSE. Bought this 1 month or so after launch.

I have decided not to buy a new watch till my annoyance with WatchOS 10 are resolved.

[–] WildProToGEn@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m poor so i’m still using an SE2 i believe

[–] -SPOF@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I've been wearing my SE for almost 3 years. The battery life is still 30-40 hours with 85% of health.

[–] Dudu4001@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bought recently the first gen se with gps + lte for around 270$ bcs in Brazil we have a really high and expensive difference in the price of apple products 😂, first Apple Watch experience but enjoying it more and more by the day… The new se is costing around 672 usd just so you guys can get an idea of how stuff works around here 😂

[–] stephenzacko@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's crazy to think about how the current Ultra 2 battery/features will likely be in the SE in a few years.

[–] ap3x_lambo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m using the 2nd Gen SE. It’s my first Apple Watch, so I didn’t wanna too much on it just in case.

[–] 22chubbynoodles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I got my SE as a hand me down and feel no need to upgrade

[–] Own-Grocery-2394@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

My SE is still going way to strong to upgrade

[–] nathanpruitt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m far from the target demo for the Ultra 2, but maybe not lol idk. I LOVE the shape and the buttons so much. I would warn you that it’s not the lightest watch, so that may be another factor to consider.

SE 2 I love it I get a days use out of the battery which is all I need as I charge it when I shower every morning. It’s got all the features of the more expensive version such as crash detection and I love using the tap feature which I find weird that they’re using it as a “new” feature on the series 9.

[–] OttersAreCute215@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

My SE is still going strong.

[–] Ok-Life8467@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m still rocking the series 6, don’t think there’s really any reason to upgrade

[–] KimKimberly12@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

First generation for over two years. No need or desire to upgrade at the moment.

[–] bubbageek@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I still have the first gen SE. the side button doesn’t work any more. Crown button/dial does though. So it’s limited in its functionality now.

[–] Ekim-Enots@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I bought 3 in 2020 for my fiancé, sister and my son. I have an 8. Theirs are still good. Had issues with battery life on last update like most but I deleted an app an all was well. Damn good watches.

[–] PilotNegative1131@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Still rocking my SE but battery at 75% . Just need to replace the battery and should be good for another 3 years .

[–] AR44W@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Waveform >>>

[–] Facemanx64@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Are we not supposed to?

[–] huehnermast69@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Relative-Eye1950@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m still rocking the SE and I am happy with it. It would have to be a very, very very special deal offered to me for me to upgrade at this point.

[–] psychoticpheasant@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

SE2 here going strong

[–] Unhappy_Quarter154@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rocking the Series 3 over here 😂

[–] BuckTheStallion@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah. Still using the SE1 here and it’s just fine. Showing its age obviously, but it’s hard to justify upgrading when it still does everything I need just fine. Gonna rock it till it’s obsolete unless I find a spectacular deal on the Ultra.

Still rocking with the 1st ge SE. I've thought about upgrading to series 9 for better battery but don't want to spend more money just for an upgraded battery. My SE can do everything the series 9 can so far I've seen just less better sensors and not as good battery.

[–] imnotokayy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

i’m still rocking the 3rd gen
