The Apple Watch Series 5 is three years old. It was revealed in September 2019 at Apple’s annual keynote event, alongside the iPhone 11 range. 


If you’re wondering, “why can't you buy Apple Watch Series 5?” - the Apple Watch Series 5 has been discontinued through Apple. Luckily, you can buy a refurbished Apple Watch Series 5 at the musicMagpie Store! 

If you’re on a budget, then a refurbished Apple Watch Series 5 is perfect! It was originally the first Apple Watch to have an always-on display. When inactive, you’ll see a dimmer version of all of the information on the watch face. 


It has a good battery life, an S5 chip, and WatchOS 6. The Apple Watch Series 5 has also been made in four materials, including aluminium, ceramic, stainless steel and titanium. 


Plus, if you’re wondering “does the Apple Watch Series 5 track sleep?”, you’ll have access to the sleep app on the device and be able to create bedtime schedules.

Not sure “how much is an Apple Watch Series 5? At the time of release in 2019, a new Apple Watch 5 started at £399. However, the Apple Watch Series 5 is no longer available to buy new as it’s been discontinued. 


The Apple Watch 5 will now be a lot cheaper as well due to depreciation. This is when older models lose value.


Buying refurbished instead of new is also a great way to cut the cost. However, the price depends on the condition. The better the condition you buy the Apple Watch Series 5, the more you’ll pay.

Here at musicMagpie, we’ve got a great range of refurbished Apple Watch devices to choose from! Plus, they’ve all gone through the necessary checks to be in great condition. 


You’ll get a FREE 12-month warranty with your second hand Apple Watch Series 5, which covers technical defects or faults caused by improper workmanship. Plus, you’ll get FREE delivery too.

If you’re buying a refurbished Apple Watch Series 5 with us, you’ll receive a charging cable. 


Unfortunately, we don’t include power adapters with our Apple Watch devices as power adapters were removed from most Apple boxes. The reasoning behind this is to reduce the device's environmental impact.

For your Apple Watch Series 5 charge to get from 0-80%, it should take 1.5 hours. However, for 0-100% charge, you’re looking at 2.5 hours. You’ll also need to charge the Apple Watch Series 5 daily.

According to Apple, the Apple Watch should last up to 18 hours. However, this depends on what you’re using the device for and for how long. The battery life can be affected by app usage, workouts, notification alerts and more. 


Here’s a few things you can do to improve the battery life: 

 

Close background apps
Lower screen brightness
Disable background refresh 

 

To check the battery of your Apple Watch, just go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. 

Wondering can you swim with an Apple Watch Series 5? You can, but Apple recommends only shallow water activities and avoiding high-velocity water. 


For example, you won’t be able to wear it if taking part in scuba diving or skiing due to the risk of damaging the Apple Watch. 


The Apple Watch Series 5 is not waterproof, however, it is water resistant up to 50 meters. 


According to Apple, certain bands for the Apple Watch aren’t water-resistant either. For example, the stainless steel and leather bands shouldn’t be exposed to any liquid.
