Hi everyone,
I thought it might be fun to start talking about old Apple Watches you still regularly use and share your experience.
It might even be a good reference for others to see how old apple hardware fares over the years.
I will start myself :
- apple watch series 4 ( gps only) - bought new 1 week after launch
- iPhone SE OG - bought new about 1 month after launch.
For this to work the Apple Watch is stuck running watchOS 8, iPhone is updated to latest available iOS version, 15.8.8.
The watch is still on its first battery and is nowadays at 88% health with about 510 cycles.
Battery life is - as you might imagine- not good, depending on my usage I have to charge it twice a day.
I used this watch every day for at least 5 or 6 years from ( more or less) 8 AM to 8 PM, it has scratches everywhere but has never failed on me. Nowadays I still use this combo from Friday to Sunday every week, for the rest of the week I have another more modern iPhone / Apple Watch combo.
I would say this combo is probably the best piece of technology I have ever bought.
What about you ?
Thanks.
