Our take on the Apple Watch SE 3 GPS 44 mm Aluminum Case Sport Band

The Apple Watch SE 3 is Apple's lower-cost smartwatch, here in the 44 mm aluminum case with a silicone Sport Band. It runs watchOS with an OLED display, health and fitness tracking, sleep and workout features, and water resistance for swimming and showers. Apple rates battery life at up to 32 hours. It sits at the low end of Apple's watch lineup, trading the always-on display and extra health sensors of pricier models for the core watchOS experience.
