Description

People don't buy new smartwatches at the same rate that they buy new smartphones. And when you really think about it, why would they? Carriers create deals as an incentive to prompt upgrades every two years (the installment plans are often set up to be two years long), but no such schedule exists for accessories. On top of that, the pace of change is often much slower because of the difficulties of miniaturizing chips and sensors to wrist-size. That's part of the reason that the Apple Watch SE 3 is so surprising.
