Apple Watch SE - Specifications and Price

With the new Apple Watch SE, Apple yesterday presented a budget model of its smartwatch that is said to be the best combination of function, design, price and performance. The Apple Watch SE doesn't perform as well as the new one Apple Watch Series 6, but still most of the functions that have proven themselves in previous model series. Of course, it is offered with watchOS 7 as the operating system and also comes with the corresponding apps and features. But the new blood oxygen sensor, for example, is only available in the more expensive sister model. You can find out which differences are still important here.

Comparison of Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch SE

It is not yet possible to make a great comparison from the pure data. That's why I've put the most important differences in the comparison of Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch SE into an overview. This shows very quickly that the SE model is quite slimmed down and you have to think about what you actually want to use the watch for before deciding on one of the models.
