In today's video, I dive into the world of digital minimalism with an intriguing exploration of the Apple Watch SE. With a focus on its capabilities as a standalone device, I evaluate its potential to function independently without the constant dependency on an iPhone.

Right from the start, I make it clear that this review is not about the combined use of an Apple Watch and an iPhone, but rather what the Apple Watch can do on its own once it has been set up. Using a case from Etsy, I transform my Apple Watch into a compact, utilitarian device designed for essential tasks only.

Finally, I provide a personal take, explaining why I wouldn't adopt this setup long-term, primarily due to battery concerns. I conclude with insights on purchasing options and recommendations for further questions and engagement in the comments section.
