I got a free Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen Cellular through a T-Mobile promo and have been pleasantly surprised at how much I love this watch! It’s the 40mm which would not have been my 1st choice but I didn’t get to choose the size. I’m coming from a Fitbit so I was nervous about battery life but I’ve been starting my day at 5am and tracking a 30 min workout in the evening and am still going to bed at 11pm with 50% left which is more than enough to track my sleep since I do have sleep apnea. I do disable Siri listening at all times and just activate it with the crown, I also limit all notifications but the most important I would want on my wrist like messages, calls and calendar. Other than that I use it like normal and it’s been great. My only dislikes are not being able to add my step count to the watch face which I know is dumb but I do like to see it, having to manually start sleep tracking unless I set up a schedule which isn’t my fav because my bed time is pretty random sometimes, on my Fitbit Charge 5 and Galaxy Watch 4 before that you didn’t have to do anything you just go to sleep. That’s it really, I’ve been very happy so far!
I think Pedometer++ has a complication for a step count and Autosleep doesn’t rely on scheduling sleep tracking. They’re both on the AppStore
Se 2nd gen is a great watch, i had a choice between series 9 and se 2nd gen and trust me without a doubt i chose the SE 2nd gen.
The price difference among the two of them is insane and how small difference they have on features and performance they offer.
I’ve found my people. I love my 2nd Gen SE so much!!
I got my se 2 in August, and I’m loving it. But it’s not compatible with the Pipboy watch face
I too have the SE 2 and I get about 2 days battery from mine as I turn off unneeded notifications and vibration is turned off too. I just use it for only AW apps, I don’t add any non apple apps to my watch
