"When I first got the wearable back in 2023, it quickly became one of the best smartwatches I've ever used. After living with it day in and day out, testing newer models, my positive impression of the Apple Watch Ultra 2 has only strengthened. From demanding outdoor activities to daily health tracking and notifications, it remains a dependable, no-compromise device that holds up remarkably well today."
"I've exercised, traveled, and even slept with the latest to find out exactly where the company has pushed the envelope this time around. I'll cut right to the chase: If you already own an Apple Watch Ultra, there is no compelling reason to upgrade to the Ultra 2. But if you're one of the many who are planning to buy an Ultra wearable for the first time, this is as good as it gets. Here's why."
"Given today's economic environment with rising consumer prices, I am a bit surprised that Apple was able to achieve a solid price point for the Watch Ultra 2. Given the titanium construction, integrated LTE radio, and sapphire glass display, $779 is very reasonable for a high-performance sports watch. That's more true when you compare the Apple Watch Ultra 2 to other flagship GPS sports watches."
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 pairs titanium construction, integrated LTE, and a sapphire-glass display for a durable, high-end build. The device uses an S9 processor, offers a brighter display, and doubles internal storage compared with the original model. The wearable supports demanding outdoor activities, comprehensive health tracking, notifications, and sleep monitoring while receiving ongoing software updates. The $779 price point positions it competitively against other flagship GPS sports watches. Existing Apple Watch Ultra owners have little incentive to upgrade, while first-time Ultra buyers receive a top-tier, no-compromise smartwatch experience.
