Apple Watch SE (2nd gen) Stand Alone line

Staci · 9 days ago

So far, the watch is great, there was trouble with the set-up of the watch as I purchased it for a stand-alone line. Not sure if this was the watch or a Verizon issue. It took from a Wednesday to a Wednesday and over 7 hours of phone and chat to get the set up completed. Today is the first day my daughter was able to use it, so I guess time will tell how much we really like it.

So far it is working well as a stand alone watch with no phone. We are still trying to work out a few kinks, but nothing major.

Looks good, app and battery suck

Looks better than a fitbit, but the app interface is nowhere near as good, and battery life is horrendous

Not useful at all

Lynn · 1 month ago

I don’t see the point. The only thing is useful for is to tell time and I can just look at my phone for that.

Great quality and sleek design

Maia L · 2 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

I got this Apple watch so I could communicate with my 10 year old after dropping her off at swim practice. I didn’t want to get a phone for her yet and this works perfect . Plus she can wear it while swimming!!!!
