What do you get with an Apple watch series 7 vs the new Apple watch SE 2022
Don’t forget fast charge. That alone is enough to push you towards the 7. It’s very nice to wake up in the morning after tracking sleep (and still having 35-40% battery left on GPS version) throw it in the charger, take a shower and have some coffee, and have a fully charged watch waiting for in in maybe 45 minutes. Add in AOD and I think it’s worth it. And the sensors are nice to have.

Apple watch SE or series 7?
My SE is great- would definitely recommend!
More on reddit.comIs Apple Watch SE series still worth in 2022 ? Recently moved to Apple eco system (13 Pm and AirPods Pro ) and Never used a smart watch before . TIA
Me and my wife recently got an SE. if you don’t need the ECG and VO2 max and always on functionality then it will do just fine. It’s fast and clear and supports the latest watchOS version.

So currently I am between an Apple watch SE 2022 for 300€ or Apple watch series 7 for 400 €.
This would be my first smartwatch and my main interest is heart rate tracking, resting heart rate, exercise tracking and sleep tracking. Am I missing much with 2nd vs 3rd generation optical heart rate sensor ? Spo2 is also cool but I don’t see myself having any use for it. And well the ECG is really cool but I don’t feel I will use it beyond a couple of times.
Also I will probably rotate with other watches for social things, if that helps for the decision.

other than the ECG and spo2 sensors, the only real difference is that the Series 7 has an always-on display, which some people find to be an essential feature of a watch.
one nice thing that the new SE (and the Series 8 and Ultra) has over older watches, though, is the ability for the Watch to always use its internal GPS sensor. some people, like me, get highly annoyed if we're carrying our phones while running or hiking because apple always insisted on utilizing the phone's (worse) gps sensor and its battery when available. still weird that they don't just simply let the use decide which one they want to use, but it is progress
