If you bought an Ultra, why did you choose se it over the regular Apple Watch?
When I saw it announced last year, I thought to myself “no one is going to buy that”. I just thought there were too few features that most people don’t need. But now I see them everywhere. I don’t see the appeal of increased battery life being worth twice the price of the standard watch.
Why did you buy the Ultra and is it worth the price to you?
Prove me wrong I guess?
Can an ultra last 30 hours using GPS? My gf does 100 mile races sometimes and I wonder if the Ultra would last?
Looks, battery life, titanium, sapphire glass and ultra exclusive watch faces.
I haven’t bought an Ultra, but it’s not very expensive compared to a 45 mm stainless S9: $749 vs $799.
Battery life.
Not having to charge it daily has made me wear it way more. I have it on all the time. Didn’t even wear my regular watch much.
When it comes to Apple my attitude is if I’m going to buy their stuff I might as well get the best one
Looks. If the reg size Apple Watch came in brushed steel or titanium I’d go for it. I don’t like the polished appearance
Flat screen, battery life, straps
Battery life was a big selling point for me, along with more memory as I use my watch to play music in my AirPods while exercising, faster response, and not having to worry about buying a screen protector and or case. The battery life alone was worth the price, my Series 7 would make it barely 18 hours while using cellular and my daily routine, my Ultra lasts almost 70 hours between charges.
Flat, sapphire screen, battery life, and it looks cool
the two main things for me would be the battery life and multi-band GPS, though really, Apple has no excuse for those things not being far better than they are on the Series 9 currently.
Battery life.
- Way better battery and screen.
- Action button is extremely useful for me. G
- enerally prefer the buttons.
- Much more durable.
My only complaint is that there isn’t a black watch. Otherwise, it’s IMO a superior product in every way outside of maybe looks which will be more subjective.
I actually wish they made it in the Titanium blue. I would have loved to color match to my blue titanium 15 Pro Max
Great screen, bigger screen to actually see all that data.
Battery life.
Tough (I’m outdoors a lot, camping, scouting).
I liked the band, Alpine loop.
Bigger screen. Don’t have to focus much on the battery. Don’t like the color options for the aluminum series watches since they got rid of black/space gray, SS a little too shiny for my taste.
