I am looking at the 8 as well. My 5 works fine. The only thing "missing" for my use is blood ox measurements, and I wonder if I would really bother checking it. Having a larger face would be nice, but I can wait. well, at least until I see a sale that is too hard to pass up!
 
What is the difference between series 5 vs. SE? I’m looking at getting the SE for my cousin. It will be her first AW so it doesn’t need to be too fancy.

The series 5 has an AOD which is nice but not essential. The SE doesn’t have the ECG function either I don’t believe whereas the series 5 does. I have a series 5 and the battery life isn’t great. The SE is a good shout

Thank you for your answer. I think she will enjoy the SE and hopefully it will serve as a motivator for her to get active and healthy.
