On September 12, 2023, Apple introduced the Apple Watch SE 2023. This watch features a more refined and sophisticated design than its predecessor, combining comfort with unparalleled functionality.
With this smart watch, you can read the time and your messages on a beautiful OLED display. This display is particularly high-contrast, ensuring that you can see everything clearly. The built-in sensor allows you to monitor your sleep patterns. This has the advantage of informing you about the times during the night when you are in the deepest sleep, enabling you to set your alarm for the times when you are least likely to be sleeping, helping you wake up even better.
See the impact on your health thanks to continuous heart rate monitoring.
Thanks to the continuous heart rate monitoring of this watch, you can track your heart rate daily across all your activities, allowing you to recognize their effects on your health. This smartwatch tracks your location with GPS, which is convenient for navigation and distance measurement.
Also suitable for swimming.
The Apple Watch SE 2023 has a 5ATM certification. This means that the watch can be submerged in water up to 50 meters. So you can swim with it without worry and you don’t have to be concerned if you get caught in a rain shower.
