Apple Watch SE 3 GPS 40mm Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Band - S/M

A: What is the battery life when fully charged?

A: Yes, you have to add the device to your Verizon account for service (if you want to make calls directly from the watch.) A GPS only version is available if you do not need the cellular service.

A: So from what I know is that the Watch shares a phone number with your iPhone and that sharing is 10 bucks a month. But that’s only if you want the watch to be a little more independent. If you just want the base gps model, you don’t need to pay for anything. As for the target question, it looks like you can reach out to the guest services and they’ll be able to help! I hope this was helpful! Have a nice day!

A: Hi, thank you for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3. Yes, you will need to add a line of service for a cellular Apple Watch SE 3 to use its full features when away from your iPhone, which typically costs an additional $10 per month on Verizon. For help setting up please reach out to Target Guest Services at 1.800.440.0680 so see if the store can help setup. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: You need a iphone to activate it. Once activated there’s a lot you can do without the iPhone, but you need to initially have an iPhone

A: If you get just the GPS watch without cellular, can you still text and make calls if you are near your phone?

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3 No, an Apple Watch SE (or any Apple Watch) cannot work without an iPhone because it requires an iPhone for initial setup, pairing, and management through the Watch app. After the initial setup, a GPS + Cellular Apple Watch can perform many functions without the iPhone nearby, such as making calls, sending texts, streaming music, and receiving notifications, but this requires a separate cellular plan for the watch. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Smaller. Has some less features that may or may not be missed by you. Check the Apple Watch page on apples site and see the comparison tab to see what each has and doesn’t have.

A: SE Has. Lower battery life shorter screen brightness fewer heart sensors But if those are t things you need who cares

A: Yes the bands are changeable

A: Yes, the bands are changeable. Bands that are designed for all of Apple's smaller watch sizes (38-42mm) will work with a 40mm Apple Watch SE 3, and any bands that are designed for Apple's bigger watches (43-46mm) will work for the 44mm Apple Watch SE 3. However, any of the bands intended for the Apple Watch Ultra will not work with any version of the Apple Watch SE 3 in any size.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3 No, the Apple Watch SE 3 does not have the dedicated electrical sensor for on-demand ECG readings, so it cannot take an immediate ECG to detect AFib like the Series 4 and newer. However, it does support watchOS 9+ features like Irregular Rhythm Notifications and AFib History, which use the optical heart sensor to passively monitor for signs of AFib over time and alert you if an irregular pattern is detected. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Apple Watch SE 3 The Apple Watch SE 3 (released in late 2025) has two different ways of looking at heart health, but only one is officially for "detecting" Afib. It can notify you of an irregular rhythm (Afib), but it does not have the ECG app for active testing. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day between 7 am and 11 pm CST.

A: Hi, thank you for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3. Yes, an Apple Watch SE 3 will pair with an iPhone 11, but only if your iPhone 11 is updated to iOS 26 or later, as the SE 3 requires the latest watchOS (26) and corresponding iOS version for compatibility, which means an iPhone 11 or newer is needed. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Apple Watch SE 3 Yes, the Apple Watch SE 3 (2025) has Fall Detection built-in. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day between 7 am and 11 pm CST.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Apple Watch SE 3 Yes, the Apple Watch SE 3 (2025) is compatible with Snapchat "texting" (chatting), but with some specific limitations. Because a dedicated Snapchat app for Apple Watch was finally released in June 2025, you no longer have to rely purely on notification mirroring. Here is exactly how it works on your SE 3: If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day between 7 am and 11 pm CST.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3 The Apple Watch SE 3 (released in September 2025) does not have a built-in "Hourly Step" reminder like the 250-step nudge found on Fitbits. Instead, Apple uses its "Stand" ring system, which focuses on getting you upright rather than hitting a specific step count every hour. However, you can easily add this Fitbit-style feature using a third-party app. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
