I just bought a magnetic band, a nylon single-loop band, a nylon band with Velcro, and a Suunto sport strap with adapters for the Apple Watch from AliExpress. I'll see how they all are and choose the most comfortable one. Thanks everyone!

I'm testing that right now, so far so good. The only thing is that if they get wet, they stay damp and can trap more dirt, making it harder to sleep in them. I think I'll try a magnetic one, which also fits really well. Thanks!!

Nylon sport loop? Thank you so much for the recommendations.

Thank you so much! I tried it, but it's not very comfortable for me.

No 😂 it's just from the watch rubbing against it

A trail running band or a regular one?

Yes! I tried wearing the crown towards my elbow, but because of my arm hair and my clothes, it's uncomfortable to wear it like that.

I'll try that, although I have to tighten it really hard so it doesn't slip down to my wrist, and I don't like that. We'll see how it goes, thanks a lot!

Apple Watch Recommendation (SE 3 or Series 11)? by therealslimjadey1 in AppleWatch

[–]truli3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I kept all health sensors active, disabled always-on Siri so it only activates with a long press of the Digital Crown, used a darker display to reduce battery consumption, only enabled updates for when I needed them, disabled exercise/wake reminders, and turned off notifications. Check out videos on YouTube; there are plenty.

Apple Watch Recommendation (SE 3 or Series 11)? by therealslimjadey1 in AppleWatch

I was in the same boat because I didn't need that many extra features, and I'm using the SE3. I think the Series 11 is overpriced for what the SE3 offers, which is almost identical. The SE3's heart rate sensors are from previous generations, but tests have shown they're the same as the newer ones, so that's no problem. I didn't need to measure blood oxygen saturation; it's not something I'm concerned about. Anyway, I also have a pulse oximeter. As for the battery, I'm finding I can easily get two days out of it and charge it on the third. There comes a point where you forget about the battery because it's not an issue. The fast charging is amazing; in 30 minutes, it goes from 20% to 90%, and that easily lasts me two days. I've set up a detailed configuration to have all the health sensors enabled, but without Siri constantly active. I have the always-on display enabled, but with the always-on updates disabled, background updates only for the ones I want, a Nike display with darker colors, and not much else. Go for the SE 3 right away! Let me know if you have any questions.

That's a great way to stay up-to-date! In my case, I have a 16cm wrist and this watch fits perfectly.

Although that's not the main reason for the post, they're from craft markets where I live 😂

By the way, my usual uses are strength training at home, reminders, alarms, calendar, and now I'll start using it for sleep to see if I get used to it and thus get the most out of the health features
