Series 5 instead of SE?

[Starcrowl]

I'm planning to buy a new watch and couldn't decide between Series 5 44mm second hand with 406 days warranty or Brand New SE 44mm? Prices are 350 dollar for S5 and 390 dollar for SE. I can wait and buy S6 in the future but the price is way higher like between 500-530 in my country for the GPS version. Which one would you suggest?

The Series 5 is better in almost every way.

Do Series 5 have altimeter like SE or S6? Actually my only concern is opening the package by myself instead of buying a used one and maybe battery life...

At Walmart the Series 5 is $20 more than the SE. Going to buy one for my Dad looking to see if it's worth doing it

That’s for a pink one only.

I'm considering both as well. If the series 5 watch is pretty close to the SE, I think I am leaning towards the series 5 one.

At least right now.

Looks like most places removed them from inventory

Decided to pick up the 5 series on sale at our local Walmart for $299.

He was a bit surprised when it scanned for that $299 price. He said a week ago it was $399. I told him most likely it went on sale due to the series 6 watch being released. He still seemed a bit surprised.

Anyway, my first Apple Watch. Look forward to seeing what I have been missing all these years.

Yes. But the one in SE S6 must be improved/more power efficient since they are highlightning it.
