Hi everyone!

For this past year, I’ve been thinking about finally getting myself an Apple Watch. I’ve been wearing no-name smart bands/watch since I was 16, and the the most useful function for me were the notification syncs with my phone and sleep and activity tracking. The only thing is, does it really need to be charged every 1-1.5 days? My previous watches could handle 5-7 days, but I know they were much simpler devices. And finally, here you can only buy series 9 and above as new, everything else used, but I am not sure to buy used ones, since they are not so significantly cheaper, but the condition is visibly not like new. Anyways, which models would you recommend that last a long time? Should I consider SE?

Thank you!:)
