Is it worth upgrading from the Apple Watch SE (2nd gen) to the Apple Watch SE 3?
A new Apple Watch SE 3 40mm GPS costs £219 in the United Kingdom. After selling yours at the best quote, it costs £141 (5 Oct 2026). Our default verdict: UPGRADE.
Your Apple Watch SE (2nd gen) does not get watchOS 27. Upgrading makes sense.
- Your watch does not get watchOS 27. Apple usually sends security fixes to the previous version for a while, but new features will move on without it.
- It is 4 years old.
What the Apple Watch SE 3 adds
- The S10 chip, against the S8 in yours.
- An Always-On display, so you can read the time without raising your wrist.
- Wrist temperature sensing.
- Sleep apnea notifications.
- Double tap: tap your index finger and thumb together twice to answer a call or scroll.
- Fast charging.
Your own result depends on case size, GPS or cellular, condition and where you sell, so run the tool for your watch.
