The Apple Watch SE does everything I want from such a product and overall I am very happy with it. Granted, battery life still sucks, at most I can squeeze out 2 days and a bit per charge, using it only for the barest of things such as glancing at the time occasionally or checking for messages. No fancy fitness tracking etc., and even with WiFi turned off.
I would love to give it a full 5 star but one overriding shortcoming is the very dim display within dark environments. The auto-brightness feature cannot be turned off (as opposed to iPhones and iPads), and the employed algorithm to regulate the brightness is way too agressive biased towards saving battery life at the expense of legibility of the watch in dark scenarios.
This shortfall is well known beginning with Apple Watch Series 5, and has carried over to the SE and Series 6 models as well. Countless disgruntled users on various online forums ask for the same thing: "Apple, please give us a switch to disable auto-brightness, or some other means to set a higher brightness level at low lights". So far Apple decided to ignore these calls, and one can only hope that with a future Watch OS release there will be a fix for this.
In summary: if you wear glasses and want to check the time at night in your bedroom, you will struggle without glasses to make out the current time. Therefore, one of the most needed and wanted features of any smart watch is a big fail with the latest Apple watches!
Does what you’d expect, haven’t ran into any issues yet. The provided silicone band is not my taste so I always opt for other bands, but that’s personal preference.
