Apple Watch Series 3

Pros

• I know many people who still wear their series 3 to this day
• I haven’t noticed battery drain on my series 3 but I only use downloaded music via apple music. Works well for me.
• you could get a battery for under $20 for the Series 3 and install it yourself (hard parts over, screens already off).
• I just upgraded from a 3; which is a hundred Apple Years old. The new sleep features are great.
• I bought my series 3 new and just retired it this year, passed it to my mom and she loves it, it still fully worked for me no issues.

Cons

• I also have a series 3. Only in the last couple months have I noticed a degredation in the battery. I've struggled to convince myself to upgrade because it still works.
• Series 3 to Series 10 last fall.
• I upgraded from a series 3 to a series 11 today
• For me, an upgrade from a Series 3.
• She has an old Apple Watch (series 3 I think?) paired with an iPhone 16.
