Sad development for those waiting for Apple Watch SE 3: It may not be introduced in September

The Apple Watch SE will remain in a two-year upgrade cycle, so Apple is said to not be introducing the new Apple Watch SE this year alongside the next-gen iPhones.

Apple Watch SE 3 may not be introduced this year

Previous generations of the Apple Watch SE were introduced in September 2020 and September 2022. However, the third generation model is expected to be introduced in September 2024. Therefore, it is a good development for those who buy the Apple Watch SE 2, but a bad development for those waiting for the SE 3.

The Apple Watch SE is the most affordable Apple Watch model, but it lacks many features. The price is more affordable compared to other models as it does not include features such as ECG application, blood oxygen application, always-on display, temperature monitoring. It also has a thicker bezel and smaller case size compared to more expensive models like the Apple Watch Series 7, 8.

Apple will introduce the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 with two case size options this year.
