5. Apple Watch SE
The Apple Watch SE joins the series of Apple Watches as a more affordable version of the popular smartwatches. Apart from the blood oxygen measurement and the ECG app, it offers all functions that are also available on the Apple Watch Series 6. As for the chip, it uses the powerful S5 chip that was used in the Apple Watch Series 5. It has a Retina display of the same size as the Series 6, which in this version activates when the wrist is raised. The Apple Watch SE notifies you of irregular heart rates, alerts you to excessive noise in the immediate area, and can detect falls and make an automatic emergency call. The Apple Watch Series SE is the perfect coach and workout companion. Thanks to the electric-optical heart sensor, the Apple Watch detects your heart rate and informs you immediately if it detects anything unusual. In addition, it analyzes your heart rhythm and can thus detect a cardiac arrhythmia. In an emergency, the Apple Watch can even turn out to be a lifesaver. If it detects that you've fallen, it will open a quick menu where you can easily make an emergency call. If you don't respond for a while, the emergency call will be made automatically. The Retina Display on the Apple Watch SE offers a large display area all the way to the corners for a clear view of the screen. This Cellular variant offers autonomous access to cellular services through the same subscription you use with your iPhone. So you can use this Apple Watch to make calls, text, receive invites, stream music, and more - right from your wrist - independently of iPhone.
