Q: Do you need an additional plan for the watch if you have an Apple iPhone and Verizon service? Also can someone at Target help you set up your watch once it’s purchased!

submitted by Shopperjes - 6 months ago
  • A: That this iPhone is unlocked ?

    submitted byAna - 3 months ago
  • 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!

    submitted byAppleguy - 5 months ago
  • 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.

    submitted byEdweird - 5 months ago
  • 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.

Q: What is the difference between the SE and series 11 Apple Watch? Is it size? What size band size

submitted by Ann - 5 months ago
  • A: Will this watch pair with a IPhone 13?

    submitted byvivian - 3 months ago
  • A: The differences are health features that you will want to look at apple’s website for, battery life, screen size, and a find my precision finding feature. I have the series 11 and I will never look back. I absolutely love my series 11.

    submitted byAppleguy - 3 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3. That is the perfect question to ask, as the difference between the Apple Watch SE and the main Series models is often about premium features and physical design. While they both share the new, fast S10 chip, the Series 11 is the flagship model that includes more advanced health sensors and a more refined construction. Band Compatibility Fortunately, Apple has maintained consistent band compatibility across these sizes: 40mm (SE 3) and 41mm/42mm (Series 11) watches all use the SMALLER band size. 44mm (SE 3) and 45mm/46mm (Series 11) watches all use the LARGER band size. This means a band you buy for a 44mm SE 3 will fit a 46mm Series 11, and vice-versa. Recommendation Choose the SE 3 if you want great performance, the Always-On Display, and most core features at a much lower price. Choose the Series 11 if you require the advanced health monitoring (ECG, Blood Oxygen, Hypertension), need the brightest screen for outdoor use, or prefer the thinner, more If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Can this work without an iPhone

submitted by Terry - 8 months ago
  • 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

    submitted byRich - 8 months ago
  • A: If you get just the GPS watch without cellular, can you still text and make calls if you are near your phone?

    submitted byAkila - 5 months ago
  • 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.

Q: My son has a 16e cell phone. Will this watch work with that without paying an additional fee?

submitted by K - 5 months ago
  • A: Hi target guy, I’m not an expert on this stuff but I know this. There is an actual iPhone 16e released in 2025. This just shows that these “experts” are either ai or just really aren’t experts at all. I’m so sorry that you had to go through this. Yes this watch is compatible with the iPhone 16e and Idk what these target people are thinking but there are some people that actually care and want to help others and I feel that target needs to really understand these types of customers better. And to target I’m sorry to be like this but somebody has to step up and help these customers with answers that fit their needs. I’m just a normal person that wants to help people so I’m just trying to help people that actually don’t understand. Have a nice day!!!!!!!

    submitted byAppleguy - 4 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3. This is a great question, and it involves two important factors: compatibility and cellular cost. In short: No, the iPhone SE (2016) is too old to be paired with the Apple Watch SE 3. You will need a much newer iPhone model. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    submitted bySuperty - 8 months ago

Q: Are the bands changeable?

submitted by Debra - 8 months ago
  • A: Yes the bands are changeable

    submitted bysara - 8 months ago
  • 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.

    submitted bytiredsliam - 5 months ago

Q: What are measurements for different band sizes?

submitted by Mary - 17 days ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Apple Watch SE (3rd generation) Here are the band size measurements Apple uses for this model: Small (S): fits wrists 130–180 mm (5.1–7.1 in) Medium (M): fits wrists 150–200 mm (5.9–7.9 in) Large (L): fits wrists 165–210 mm (6.5–8.3 in) Most Apple Watch bands also vary by watch case size (40 mm or 44 mm), so be sure to match the band size to the case size listed on your Apple Watch SE.

Q: does this version have cellular? i don’t want to buy my child an iphone also. i just want them to be able to call me with their watch.

submitted by Christy - 25 days ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Apple Watch SE 3 This Apple Watch SE 3 model is the GPS‑only version, meaning it does not support cellular, so you cannot make calls without being connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth or Wi‑Fi. The GPS + Cellular models are the ones that have built-in cellular capability (eSIM) and can make calls and send texts without your iPhone nearby. The GPS-only model, like this one, requires either Bluetooth connection to the paired iPhone or a known Wi‑Fi network to make and receive calls. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    N/a

    I was very skeptical about getting the watch because I was not sure if I would like it. After receiving the watch and wearing it for a few days, I really enjoyed it. I love all the different things that it’s capable of doing, including watching my health, exercising and monitoring my blood pressure.

    Apple Watch SE3

    Just picked up the new Apple Watch SE 3 in the 44mm size and it’s honestly a solid watch for the price. I got the Midnight aluminum one for $279 and it looks clean on the wrist. The bigger 44mm screen is way better than the smaller version—. Super bright, sharp, and now it has the Always-On display, which is a huge upgrade for this model. It runs super smooth thanks to the new S10 chip. Double Tap works great, Siri is fast, and everything just feels snappy. For health stuff, it tracks my workouts, heart rate, sleep, and even picked up on possible sleep apnea. Battery easily lasts me a full day, sometimes more if I turn on Low Power Mode. The 44mm feels comfy and not too heavy. My only real complaints? No blood oxygen or ECG like the more expensive ones, but for most people that’s not a dealbreaker. Pros: Always-On screen, great performance, good battery, awesome value. Cons: Missing a couple premium health features. Overall, if you’re looking for a great everyday Apple Watch without spending $400+, this is it. I’d give it 4.5 out of 5. Totally recommend!

    If you have kids that use your phone...you need this

    I've been considering an Apple Watch or FitBit for some time...as my kids like to watch stuff on my phone and then ignore my calls and texts coming in, so I wanted something that would alert me to incoming messages. I have had for a week and have really enjoyed it! The battery charges very quickly, which is nice, since I do like to wear it to sleep to track my sleep patterns. I am surprised of all the functions it can complete, i.e. showing snaps, answering calls, etc. I haven't even discovered all that it can do. Oh, and set up and pairing to my apple phone was a breeze! I have a small wrist and the band fits great. I am very happy with the purchase!!!
