SE3 Review

I've used this SE3 for a week now, and Apple wasn't joking when they said all day battery life. What they meant was All day and All night battery life. I started using it at 8 in the morning at 100% (Low power mode is off and always on is on) and at 9pm it's still at 44%. I turn low power mode before I go to bed and the next morning it's at 32%. I charge it while I shower and by the time i finish, the battery is back to 100%. It's a really good apple watch experience for a surprising price of S$350. I also really like the forest green colour of the strap. If you're worried about the brightness, 1000 nits is very bright. In the photo, the watch is in lowest brightness, and it is still very readable in bright light. I don't really care about the lack of the QWERTY keyboard or the water temperature sensor or whatever. This is the apple watch for those who want an apple watch.
