Apple Watch SE: A more affordable Watch for everyone

Apple Watch SE

This year Apple has introduced the new Apple Watch SE, which is the more affordable Apple Watch for everyone. The Apple Watch SE looks the same as the Series 6 apart from one major differentiating factor, which is it lacks the always-on display found on the Series 6. It would not be wrong to call Apple Watch SE the Apple Watch Series 4 without the upgraded specifications. Watch SE also lacks the ECG feature (which is found on the Series 4, 5 and 6). The new Blood Oxygen level monitoring feature is also exclusive to the Apple Watch Series 6.

Apple Watch SE features the S5 chip, 40mm and 44mm size options, fall detection, cellular option, Sleep app, Workout app, Fitness+ support and more.

Apple Watch SE is available for $279 for the 40mm model and $309 for the 44mm model.
