re: Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen). I got 2 (one for me and one for my daughter). I thought that it had several capabilities including SP02 (certain oxygen / carbon dioxide readings) but through no fault of the seller it does not. NOTE: Apple's website (and perhaps this / other sites) may be a bit misleading in this regard BECAUSE my understanding is that due to a lawsuit many newer Apple Watches no longer have these fuller features. Apple either removed or did not install them. This is very confusing - so don't take my word for it - do you own research.
This creates an issue where, as best I understand, some OLDER models may have these features. But newer (and in many other ways better) Apple Watches DON'T have the software that the older models had. I talked to an Apple Store rep about this. He agreed this could be confusing. But no matter what, he couldn't make my watch work in the way I had expected it would be capable of working.
I only turned on and tested one of the 2 watches. This made it hard to answer some of Amazon's return questions (eg - was it used? one was and one wasn't...). Generally both watches were in good condition... One may have some minor paint blemishes on the turn button but that's not a big deal. I am sorry that it took me so long to figure all this out and return the items. The seller has a generous and long return window. NOTE: normally I would think that 30 days is enough return time.
Based on REALITY where I do not have an Apple store next to my home (and needed 1 on 1 support to figure this out), PLUS had other weekend / vacation plans etc., I would say many non-techies need at least 60 days to figure out how or whether an Apple Watch is the right model etc for them. Based on that, I am saving this Seller's info and will keep it in mind that I would be willing to PAY MORE for a longer return period on an item like this. This is not a hammer - where it works instantly etc. There are personal / data settings issues etc to consider.
Note: I have not been contacted by or incentivized in any way by the seller for this review or about the refund. In fact the seller is so thoughtful as to warn people how they must "UNPAIR" the watch from the phone for a refund or it will cause delays. Note: for some reason my unpair attempt ran into glitches, so AGAIN I had to go back to the Apple store... Another long trip...I brought BOTH my iPhone and Apple Watch to the Apple Store again. It took them a few tries too but then the problem resolved automatically - as if there never was a problem. I'd imagine that if the seller tried to do this (without my phone) it might take even more time and cause a refund delay.
I have yet to fully trace the return went back to my card but expect no problems. I will try to update this review if needed.
