Apple Watch Series 11 vs SE 3: Which to Buy? — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00The Apple Watch Series 11 and SC3 are
2. 0:01here, and Apple has finally leveled the
3. 0:03playing field, bringing pretty close
4. 0:05feature parody to their standard
5. 0:06watches. And in this video, we're going
6. 0:07to talk about all the features these
7. 0:09have to offer, when you should save some
8. 0:10money and get the SC3, or when you
9. 0:12should spend a little more to get the
10. 0:13Series 11. The main difference in these
11. 0:15is actually the design of them. So, the
12. 0:16Series 11 is actually a little bit
13. 0:18thinner and flatter than the SE3.
14. 0:20Whenever you look at them, you might not
15. 0:21notice that, but actually having it on
16. 0:23your wrist, you definitely notice it
17. 0:25feels a little bit flatter and a little
18. 0:26bit more comfortable. Both of these do
19. 0:28now finally have the always on display.
20. 0:30This used to be a feature missing from
21. 0:32the SE series, but the always on display
22. 0:34is amazing because you don't have to
23. 0:35actually raise your watch to look at it
24. 0:37if you want to see what's on the screen.
25. 0:38The sizes of these are also a little bit
26. 0:40different. You can get the series 11 in
27. 0:42either 42 or 46 mm. The SE is available
28. 0:45in 40 and 44 mm, which is a little bit
29. 0:48smaller display. Also, the viewing
30. 0:50angles on these are slightly different.
31. 0:52The SE does not give you as wide of a
32. 0:54viewing angle, which means if you got it
33. 0:55on your wrist, you may find that you
34. 0:57have to actually adjust the angle to be
35. 0:58able to see the display. But the flatter
36. 1:00design and the improved display on the
37. 1:02Series 11 means you can see it from
38. 1:04pretty much any viewing angle. The next
39. 1:06difference is in the materials. Both of
40. 1:08these do come stock with aluminum, but
41. 1:10if you would like, you can upgrade the
42. 1:1211 to get titanium options. The Series
43. 1:1511 also has the sapphire crystal
44. 1:16display, which is going to be a little
45. 1:18bit more scratch and dust resistant than
46. 1:20the SE, but I would say with the SE,
47. 1:22you're saving a little bit of money, and
48. 1:24this might be worth it because if you
49. 1:25ever do bust the display, it's cheaper
50. 1:26to go buy a new one. Also, the Series 11
51. 1:28does have double the display brightness
52. 1:30of the SE3. I found for me, it never
53. 1:32really seemed to matter. I could always
54. 1:33see both of these, but in the harshest
55. 1:35sunlight conditions, that's when you'll
56. 1:36appreciate the Series 11 over the SE3.
57. 1:39The next thing about these that's really
58. 1:40interesting is they actually both have
59. 1:42the same S10 chip, the same W3 wireless
60. 1:44chip, the same neural engine, and 64 GB
61. 1:47of storage on these, which means that
62. 1:49core performance on both of these is
63. 1:51going to be pretty much identical. The
64. 1:52main difference is the Series 11 has the
65. 1:54second generation wideband chip, which
66. 1:55is going to allow you to activate
67. 1:57precision finding to find your iPhone,
68. 1:58which will actually guide you closer to
69. 2:00your phone. But with the SC3, all it'll
70. 2:02do is allow you to beep the iPhone,
71. 2:03which for most people is still going to
72. 2:05be very helpful for helping you locate
73. 2:07your phone if you lost it in a couch or
74. 2:09something like that. These have the same
75. 2:10exact interaction and controls, though.
76. 2:12You get the digital crown, a button on
77. 2:14the side. They also both have ondevice
78. 2:16Siri, wrist flick, and double tap
79. 2:18gesture support. The Series 11 really
80. 2:20has advantages in the health sensors,
81. 2:22though, namely in the fact that it has
82. 2:23hypertension ECG, and it has the blood
83. 2:26oxygen sensor that are both missing from
84. 2:28the SC3. But both of them do still have
85. 2:31SOS, emergency calling and fall
86. 2:33detection on both of them, which is
87. 2:34pretty important. And they also both
88. 2:36give you sleep tracking, the Vitals app,
89. 2:38temperature sensing, and cycle tracking
90. 2:40as well. Another big difference between
91. 2:42the two of these is in battery life.
92. 2:44Series 11 promises up to 24 hours of
93. 2:46battery life or 38 hours in low power
94. 2:48mode. The SE gives you 18 hours of
95. 2:50battery life or 32 hours in low power
96. 2:52mode, which is going to be pretty
97. 2:53comparable and mean that you're going to
98. 2:55have to keep these charged regularly.
99. 2:57But the Series 11 fast charges to 80% in
100. 2:5930 minutes. And the SE takes 45 minutes
101. 3:02to reach 80%. So that's going to be a
102. 3:04little bit faster if you need to
103. 3:05recharge this very quickly without
104. 3:07leaving it on your charger for too long.
105. 3:08Also, both of these can give you 8 hours
106. 3:10of battery life in about 15 minutes. And
107. 3:12I found both of them to feel about the
108. 3:14same for sleep tracking, although the
109. 3:15Series 11 to me is still a little bit
110. 3:17more comfortable than the SE3. Both of
111. 3:19the watches are water resistant to 50
112. 3:21meters, but the Series 11 supports
113. 3:23snorkeling and it also has a depth gauge
114. 3:25on it up to 6 meters and it has water
115. 3:27temperature sensing as well. The SC3
116. 3:30does start at $250 and the Series 11
117. 3:32starts at $400. And the price does
118. 3:34increase on both of these if you get the
119. 3:35bigger display and also if you get a
120. 3:37cellular equipped one as well. So, if
121. 3:39you're trying to decide between the two
122. 3:41of these, how do you decide if you
123. 3:42should spend the extra 150 bucks to buy
124. 3:44the Series 11 over the SE? really buy
125. 3:46the SE if you're a first-time buyer and
126. 3:48if you really only need core fitness
127. 3:50safety features and if you want to save
128. 3:51a significant amount of money cuz you're
129. 3:53still going to have the same performance
130. 3:54on Siri. You're going to have great
131. 3:56notifications, the ability to text on
132. 3:58this and so many things like that. The
133. 4:00Series 11 really just takes everything
134. 4:01up a notch with the brighter display,
135. 4:03the better viewing angles, and with the
136. 4:05slightly larger area that you can do
137. 4:07things like type on the screen. I also
138. 4:08do appreciate all the extra health
139. 4:10sensors on this, but the SE3 still has
140. 4:12all the essentials that you need. The
141. 4:14Series 11 really just takes everything
142. 4:15up a notch with features like
143. 4:16hypertension. So, which watch do you
144. 4:18think fits your lifestyle better? The
145. 4:19SE3 or the Series 11? Let me know in the
