Looking to get a gift for a family member.

Am currently stuck between getting them either an AW SE2 for $249, or a Refurbished S7 AW for $299.

Wondering if the Refurbished AW S7 would include the 3 month Fitness Plus trial.
 
It should, cause I replaced my Apple Watch Series 4 recently due to battery issue and that came with 3 month fitness plus Trial.

Whoa. That’s awesome if so.

How long did it take for you to replace your S4? I have an S4 as well and my battery percentage is at 74% so have been thinking about getting a battery replacement, which I hear Apple just replacements your Watch all together.

If the S7 Refurbish does indeed get your 3 Month Apple Fitness Plus trial then I may just shell the extra $50 instead of the SE2 for my teen.

According to the T&C yes, Refurbished are eligible. But, “Offer is not available if you or any members of your Family have previously subscribed to Apple Fitness+” so keep that in mind too.

Either way, the S7 is a good value for $50 extra. About the only thing you wouldn’t get that you would with SE2, is crash detection. But a TON of other features.

It kind of depends but at least 5 business days For my case. I trialed Apple Watch ultra during that time.

Someone under my family
Plan already did use their 3 month Fitness Plus trial under our account once last year so now I’m thinking our overall family account won’t be eligible for the trial.

So now I’m debating between the SE2 or the S7.

Just googled that last year Apple for Black Friday gave out $50 gift cards so that’s pretty much an a free band so may wait till then to purchase either.
