Apple Watch SE 2 (GPS, 40mm) vs Apple Watch SE 3 (40mm) GPS + LTE
The SE 3 is the better watch for most people. It adds an always-on display, a much faster S10 chip, cellular, double the storage and newer health sensors, including sleep apnea notifications and temperature sensing. The SE 2 is still a solid, lighter-featured watch for a first smartwatch, a kid on Family Setup, or someone who only wants the basics. Owners of the SE 2 praise its battery and simplicity; the SE 3 is the one to step up to if you want the screen to stay readable and the watch to last longer.
- Choose the Apple Watch SE 2 if you want a simple iPhone companion for workouts, notifications and Family Setup, and you do not need cellular or an always-on screen.
- Choose the Apple Watch SE 3 if you want cellular, an always-on display, faster performance and the newer health features, and you plan to keep the watch for several years.
