The Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm offered a premium aesthetic with a luxurious ceramic case, but its core technical specifications mirrored the standard Series 2. Here’s a breakdown of its features:

 

Display:

The Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm mirrored the standard Series 2 display. It likely used a 1.65-inch Ion-X glass Retina display with a resolution of 312 x 390 pixels. This display lacked features like pressure touch or the always-on mode found in later Apple Watch models.

Battery:

Apple claimed the Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm could last up to 18 hours on a single charge with typical usage. This battery life was standard for smartwatches at the time but might not hold up as well compared to modern devices with more efficient processors.

Storage:

The Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm likely came in just one storage option: 8GB. While this seems very limited by today’s standards, it was sufficient for the core functionalities offered in 2016, which mainly focused on basic fitness tracking and notifications.

Software:

The Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm launched with watchOS 2 and likely received updates up to watchOS 3. The software experience was identical to the standard Series 2, offering basic fitness tracking functionalities like step counting and workouts. It also displayed notifications and allowed music playback control. However, features introduced in later models, such as GPS, cellular connectivity, ECG, or fall detection, were not available in Series 2.

Connectivity:

Unlike the later Apple Watch Series 3 that introduced cellular connectivity as an option, the Series 2 was Wi-Fi only. This means it relied on a nearby iPhone for internet access and features like receiving calls and texts.

Memory:

Apple doesn’t disclose specific RAM capacity for its Watch models. However, the Series 2 likely had lower RAM compared to modern Apple Watches. This was sufficient for the watchOS functionalities available at launch but might not deliver the smoothest performance by today’s standards.

 

Important Note: The Apple Watch Edition Series 2 42mm is a discontinued product and likely very difficult to find new. Considering its outdated specifications and limited functionality compared to current models, it’s not a recommended purchase in 2024. If you’re looking for a premium smartwatch experience, a newer Apple Watch Edition model would be a far better choice.
