While you may still have to wait for while before you can pair them with the new iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro series, you are now able to order Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Series 6 in Malaysia. You can either do that directly from Apple through its Malaysian online store or other authorised resellers all over the country.
When we reported about their launch last month, we had only touched on their base pricing. For this article though, we went through the Apple Watch Studio section of Apple Malaysia’s website and tracked down the full price range for both smartwatches, which is actually quite extensive given the multiple types of casing and straps that are available.
So, let’s start with the Apple Watch SE which only comes with aluminium body. Unlike the Apple Watch Series 6, it also doesn’t come with Always-On Retina display as well as blood oxygen and ECG sensor.
Despite being powered by the S5 processor which is one generation behind the S6 chip inside the Apple Watch Series 6, the massive difference in terms of base pricing between the two models could be the crowd-puller factor for the Apple Watch SE.
Apple Watch SE 40mm Aluminium Case
Solo Loop / Sport Band / Sport Loop / Nike Edition: RM 1199 (Wi-Fi) / RM 1499 (Cellular)
Braided Solo Loop / Leather Link / Milanese Loop: RM 1449 / RM 1699

Silver Link Bracelet: RM 2549 / RM 2799

Meanwhile, the Apple Watch Series 6 can be obtained with either aluminium or stainless steel case. For those who are looking for the titanium case or the Apple Watch Hermes, sorry to disappoint you but they aren’t available in Malaysia.
As mentioned earlier, the Apple Watch Series 6 features a newer processor than the Apple Watch SE called S6 and is up to 20% faster that the S5. In addition to having a blood oxygen sensor, the higher-end model also features the U1 Ultra Wideband chip that adds spatial awareness capability to the smartwatch.
The watch also has an ECG sensor but at the moment is not available in Malaysia since it has yet to receive an approval from the local authorities. Do note that the support for cellular networks comes as standard on Apple Watch Series 6 with the stainless steel case.
