It’s currently 24 percent off.
The second-gen Apple Watch SE garnered an 89 in our review thanks to the comprehensive features it offers for much less money than the company’s alternatives. The smartwatch has all the usual options, like heart-rate monitoring, crash detection, and emergency calling. The retina display offers up to 1,000 nits brightness, and the battery lasts 18 hours.
If you’re considering buying an Apple Watch SE, one thing to keep in mind is that it’s not IPX6 rated for dust resistance like the Series 8 and Ultra. However, it is water resistant up to 50 meters.
