Apple Watch SE 3 launched, introduces new Sleep Score metric

Apple has launched the Apple Watch SE 3 for 2025, bringing upgrades in health, performance, and connectivity.

The new SE model introduces a Sleep Score function that provides users with a clear view of their sleep quality. It also gains a wrist temperature sensor, sleep apnea detection, and enhanced fitness tracking.

It runs on the S10 chip, the same processor powering the Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3. The Watch SE 3 now supports Always-On Display, Siri, and new gesture controls such as Wrist Flick.

Battery life is rated for up to 18 hours of regular use and 32 hours on Low Power Mode. Charging is twice as fast compared to the previous generation, giving up to 8 hours of use with just 15 minutes of charging.

The SE 3 also comes with a 5G option, allowing users to send texts, make calls, and access apps without needing an iPhone. Safety features such as Emergency SOS, Fall Detection, and Crash Detection remain part of the package.

The Apple Watch SE 3 is priced at PHP 15,990 for the 40mm model. It’s also available for PHP 17,990 for the 44mm variant.
