Hi guys. Was waiting for the announcement to see if there’s a price drop in Series 3 - always wanted to get one but don’t have enough budget.

Now the SE is very tempting. Between Series 3 (42mm) RM999 vs SE (44mm) RM1349, the difference is just RM350.

Is it worth to get the Series 3? Only thing pulling me back is the screen size whereby SE is 30% bigger slightly.

I would go for SE for the longer support of the S5 chip & bigger screen.

without ECG still can track heart rate no worries. ECG is an additional function, more canggih. but I think ECG is not even approved in M'sia yet right? judging by the other thread of Watch 5.

If between Watch 5 and SE, of course Watch 5 is better. Has ECG and Always On Display. But for budget conscious ppl who can live without ECG, can consider SE.

Our AARs here will only sell certain models. Mainly the ones u can see on at here. Once u click into any of those watches, your luck will be lessen as they might not have it and asked u to order it online @ Apple's website. If you try to ask them to order for u so that you can do installments, they will say no. Straight purchase also no.

I went to overseas Apple Stores before. They also don't carry ALL of the loops bundled tgt with the watch. They definately sold more options bundled together than our AARs but once you go start changing the strap colour, casing etc etc, that's where your luck starts to swindle down.

TL;DR
AARs might not have what u wan. U can ask. If they dont have, u need go Apple website to order. No such thing as AAR order for u.

No not really.

SE = S5 internals without S4/5/6 features (ECG, always on display etc etc)

Prefer to test the solo loop in the shop rather than print out the measuring tool.

Well, I guess we will be getting AW6 & SE here in about a month's time. Give or take, mid - end of October.
My estimation: 12 or 13 Oct announce, 16 Oct pre-order, 23 Oct new toy on our wrist.

Without ECG, does it mean there’s no app to track our heart rate at all?

You can but delivery address must be Singaporean address. If you cannot wait for AW to enter MY, try looking up some post forwarding services.

that's almost 1 more month away...
with wave 1 already getting release on 18 Sep...
I think the 2nd wave should be 30 Sep/1Oct, and Msia could be in it... tongue.gif

thought to get SE for wife (not hopeful on the ECG/Blood Oxygen usefulness + unlock soon), since also concern that S3 will be less subject to update soon...and 6 is way overkill for her
and current S5 discount really...nothing vs previously S0

Tangan already itchy. One more month to wait. Scared my saved money for AW depleted before that. Gahahaha...

Seriously thinking of grabbing AW5 if price reduced fairly, but knowing that this is Malaysia, one could only dream.

When S1/2 before release, S0 price was halved (stainless steel at 3.2k dropped to 1.6k range), I got it back then until today...
can't be tempted yet to change as find them all too costly to justify without all the features...

SE probably is a good consideration, if you don expect all the extras in S5/6 going to get enabled any time soon..
