I have a Series 5 Nike edition and it barely last 8 hours, battery is terrible.

I need another watch I was wondering if I can get a cheap garmin and how it syncs with Apple Watch or if I should get another apple watch with a better battery.

I can't afford the ultra imao, too poor right now so what do you advise?

How about the SE editions?

Don’t buy a new watch just have apple replace the battery.

I would say from a 5, if you don’t just want a new battery, grab a Series 8/9. Keep an eye out for Black Friday deals.

Obviously a new battery is cheaper but a newer watch will get updates for much longer (duh) so that’s really between you and your wallet

Check your battery health- if it’s 79% or lower Apple with replace it. $99 without Apple care or $0 with it
