An affordable Apple Watch
The Series 7 introduced a bigger Always-On Retina display that gives you about 20% more screen area than earlier models. Thinner borders and increased brightness make it easier to check messages, use apps, and type directly on the screen using the built-in QWERTY keyboard.
The case is made from lightweight aluminum in midnight, and the front crystal is 50% thicker than before to resist cracking. It is also dust resistant with an IP6X rating and water resistant up to 50 meters, so it is safe to wear during workouts, hikes, or even swims. Just don’t go diving with it.
The battery lasts up to 18 hours and now supports fast charging. With the USB-C magnetic charger, you can go from zero to 80% in about 45 minutes.
You also get several health and safety tools, including ECG and blood oxygen monitoring, heart rate tracking, fall detection, sleep tracking, and support for a wide range of workouts. With GPS and Cellular, you can call, text, stream music, or use apps without your phone nearby.
This version includes a 45mm case, a sport strap, and ships with watchOS 8 pre-installed, with support for updates through watchOS 11.
The reason this Apple Watch is marked down is because it’s a refurbished model. The grade “B” rating means it may have light scuffs or cosmetic wear, but it is fully functional and includes a 30-day parts and labor warranty.
