Then the model with WLAN only is enough for you

You don't need an eSIM to use the Internet if you have your mobile with you. The Wi-Fi variant is sufficient to have internet as long as you are on a Wi-Fi network. However, the 4G variant offers more flexibility as you can be online without your mobile or Wi-Fi network. However, if you always have your mobile with you, the Wi-Fi variant may be sufficient.

The charging cable for the Apple Watch is normally included in the scope of delivery. You can charge the Apple Watch with the magnetic charger included in the package. It is unlikely that you will need to order the charging cable separately unless it is missing or damaged.

For our kids we have a Watch subscription with Sunrise. They have their own numbers. You will need an iPhone to which the watch is paired, not sure you can avoid that. Setup seems easier if that iPhone is using same provider, but i managed to make it work also with non-matching providers.

To use the watch for jogging, listening to music offline and using GPS, you need an Apple Watch with GPS function. The "Watch SE 2024 (44 mm, 4G)" has GPS and enables music control, which is suitable for jogging. Offline music is also possible if you download music to the watch.

To use the GPS function with the 4G version of a smartwatch, you do not need a special data plan for the GPS function itself. GPS is a separate system that works independently of mobile phone networks. However, you will need a corresponding mobile phone contract to use 4G functions such as calls or data transfer. The GPS function uses satellites to determine your position and does not require a mobile phone connection.

The main difference between the Apple Watch SE 2022/2023 and the Apple Watch SE 2024 lies in the processor. The Apple Watch SE 2024 uses the S8 SiP, while the 2022 and 2023 models use the S7 SiP. Both models of the Apple Watch SE 2023 and 2024 belong to the second generation of the Apple Watch SE, as there is no official "Apple Watch SE (2nd generation)" that differs from the 2022 and 2023 models. However, the Apple Watch SE 2022 is not directly comparable to the SE 2023 or 2024, as it also uses the S8 SiP, but in a different context. The Apple Watch SE 2022 is actually the first generation of the SE to use the S8 SiP, while the SE 2023 and 2024 also use the S8 SiP, but with minor improvements compared to the 2022 version.

There is no specific information about the Apple Watch SE 2024 compared to the SE 2022 or SE 2023 in the data provided. The Apple Watch SE 2022 differs from the SE 2020 with the new S8 chip, watchOS 9 and functions such as car accident detection. Since the SE 2024 is not officially mentioned by Apple as a separate generation, it could be a designation for the second generation of the SE, which is referred to as SE 2. For exact information on the SE 2024, I recommend consulting the official Apple website.

No, you don't necessarily need your iPhone to receive calls and messages with the 4G version of the Apple Watch SE. The 4G version of the Apple Watch SE supports LTE and eSIM, which makes it possible to receive and send calls and messages without a connection to your iPhone, provided you have a corresponding mobile phone contract with an eSIM function.

However, there are no new sensors added, unlike the Apple Watch Series 10, which includes additional sensors such as a blood oxygen sensor and an electrical heart sensor. ## Display and design - The display and design specifications of the Apple Watch SE 2024 remain essentially the same as the SE 2023, with a Retina LTPO OLED display and a maximum brightness of up to 1000 nits. ## Battery life and charging speed - The battery life and charging speed of the Apple Watch SE 2024 are also identical to the SE 2023, with an everyday battery life of up to 18 hours and a charging time of around 1.5 hours to 80%. ## Software and functions - Both models run on WatchOS and offer similar functions such as heart rate monitoring, sleep recording, pedometer and emergency call functions. There are no significant innovations in the software functions between the two models.
