Apple today unveiled the Apple Watch SE 3, packed with advanced health, fitness, safety, and connectivity tools, powered by the S10 chip, all at an unbeatable price.
This latest model steps up with key health upgrades like sleep score for better rest insights, retrospective ovulation estimates, sleep apnea alerts, and wrist temperature tracking to enhance Vitals app data. It also boosts fitness tracking with daily motivation features and the new Workout Buddy, driven by Apple Intelligence for personalised audio encouragement during sessions.
The S10 chip enables an Always-On display for glances without lifting your wrist, plus gestures like double-tap and wrist flick for one-handed control. On-device Siri handles health queries faster and more privately, while fast charging hits 80% in 45 minutes and 5G cellular ensures speedy downloads with efficient power use. The display’s Ion-X glass is four times tougher against cracks.
Running watchOS 26, it sports a sleek Liquid Glass design, new watch faces like Flow and Exactograph, Smart Stack hints, live translation in Messages, and handy phone tools like Hold Assist and Call Screening.
For families, the Apple Watch SE 3 supports Apple Watch For Your Kids, allowing parents to set up cellular connectivity, location sharing, Activity goals, and safety features like Emergency SOS—without needing the child to have an iPhone.
