I was very skeptical about getting the watch because I was not sure if I would like it. After receiving the watch and wearing it for a few days, I really enjoyed it. I love all the different things that it's capable of doing, including watching my health, exercising and monitoring my blood pressure.

Watch

It's good i've had every Apple Watch up-to-date with the technology nowadays these batteries can last way longer. I shouldn't have to charge it every 8 to 10 hours or keep it in battery saving mode to optimize 12 hours of use for the price we're paying for it should have a better battery.

Returning to Apple Watch after years away.

I had an Apple Watch years ago and broke it so decided to try it again. This one is smaller 40 vs 44 so I'm getting use to the smaller size and were to find different apps but I am enjoying the new watch.

Band was loose upon pick-up.

Band was loose, didn't lock in, and there was nothing the store could do about it despite just newly unboxing it. Person who helped me was nice, though.

My 2nd Watch

Years ago I bought the first Apple Watch that came out and it just now quit keeping charge. I ordered a new one and got this one. I am so impressed, didn't think it could get any better than the last one and WOW was I wrong.

Instead of a phone

We purchased this watch for my 11.5 yr old to have in place of a phone. It's great ... when it works. We pay for the cellular plan but the connection is always lost.

Hi Df1234 — thanks for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear the Apple Watch SE (3rd gen) is a good fit conceptually for your child, but we’re sorry the cellular connection hasn’t been reliable. We know that defeats the purpose when it’s being used instead of a phone. For NumberSync watches, connectivity can be impacted by coverage, watch settings, or how it’s paired to the account. A few quick things to check: Make sure the watch has cellular activated and is properly linked via NumberSync Keep watchOS up to date Restart both the watch and the paired iPhone Confirm coverage in your area, as watches rely solely on LTE when away from Wi‑Fi We’d love to help make this more dependable. Please contact us at https://www.att.com/get-support/?source=ILC309046520 so our team can review the line, settings, and network coverage to help improve the connection. We appreciate you choosing AT&T—and thanks for trusting us with something this important 💙

Small face

I've only worn it 3 times. I'm a senior, who wears glasses, and the objects on the watch are too tiny for me to see and navigate. I now know that I need to upgrade to a large face iWatch.

Not Worth It

This watch is just ok. My old watch had more features and being that this one is brand new the battery life is terrible. I have to charge it daily whereas my old watch I could go a min of two to three days without having to charge it. This was one of those purchases I regret purchasing and probably wouldn't have had I known that this version of the Apple Watch doesn't have as many features as I used with my previous watch coupled with the fact that the battery life sucks.

Hey Cassie, we understand that your new Apple Watch SE 3 hasn’t met your expectations, especially regarding battery life and features. We understand how important it is for your device to keep up with your daily needs, and it’s disappointing to hear this hasn’t been your experience. Battery performance can vary depending on settings, usage, and background activity, and there may be adjustments we can suggest to help extend the time between charges. We’d love the chance to learn more about your usage and see if we can help improve your experience. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. Here are also few steps you can try to increase the battery life for your Apple Watch: ⁠Enable Low Power Mode: This feature reduces background sensors, disables the Always-On display, and limits network activity. To enable it, press the side button to open Control Center, tap the battery percentage, and turn on Low Power Mode. You can also schedule it to turn off after a certain period. 2. Turn Off Always On Display: This feature can be turned off to save battery life. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Always On, and toggle it off. 3. Disable Background App Refresh: Prevent apps from refreshing in the background to save battery. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh, and turn it off. 4.Adjust Brightness: Lower the screen brightness to reduce idle power consumption 5. Manage Notifications and Haptics: Reduce notifications and haptic feedback to conserve battery. 6.Optimize Charging and Battery Health: Use the optimized charging feature to reduce the time your watch stays at full charge, slowing down battery aging
