Apple Watch Ultra 2 [GPS + Cellular 49mm] Smartwatch, Sport Watch with Black Titanium Case with Dark Green Alpine Loop - M. Fitness Tracker, Precision GPS, Action Button, Carbon Neutral

I have had an Apple Watch Series 6 for a number of years and it works well. But as it aged, the battery life eventually got so bad it wouldn't keep a charge during the day. So I made the jump to the Ultra 2! There are way too many features to mention, but a few I really like are as follows: 1) I like the larger size and the 3000 nit screen brightness. Even on a sunny day there is no issue reading the screen. 2) The battery life is definitely longer. Mine charges to 80% from 50% in about 15 minutes. You have th option to override and charge to 100%, but battery life is improved if you keep it at 80% or below. 3) I'm using it to see if I may need further testing in regards to sleep apnea. 4) I'm planning to get certified for scuba diving, and this watch is very capable of performing at any depth I would plan to go to. 5) I can control my Bluetooth hearing aids directly from my watch. 6) The speaker is far superior to my Apple Watch 6 series. Great for taking phone calls. Also it is cellular ready without your iPhone present should you wish to add the service from your cell provider. 7) I purchased several different bands and they are very easy to change. The watch looks great! It's not inexpensive, but I think it is worth the price for all it does!

This Apple Watch looks amazing on a nightstand. The orange band adds a modern pop of color, and the clean design fits perfectly with a minimalist bedroom setup. The display is bright and easy to read, even at a glance, and everything feels premium and well-made. It’s both functional and stylish—great for keeping track of time and starting the day right. Highly recommend!

Incredible Apple Watch—A Total Beast! I absolutely love this watch. It’s a beast—super durable, fast, and packed with features. The display is bright and clear, the battery life is way better than my old Apple Watch, and all the health tracking works perfectly. One of my favorite things is how the screen goes dim at night and switches to a red color—it’s super cool and doesn’t light up the whole room while I’m sleeping. I also love the big face and the rugged design. If you’re on the fence, just get it. You won’t regret it.

I upgraded from an earlier generation Apple Watch mainly because I wanted a screen that doesn't go completely black. My one annoyance with my previous watch was that even when I moved my arm to check the time or a notification, sometimes my movement wasn't aggressive enough to turn the screen on. Little did I know this watch also has a MUCH improved battery life versus the previous one. I only need to charge this one every 2 or 3 days, whereas the previous one sometimes didn't even make it through a single day. I love the color, and the band it came with looks like a nice band, even though I didn't use it since I already had a band I really like from my previous one.

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 has proven to be a versatile and durable addition to my daily routine. Although my activity levels aren’t as high as they once were, I find its workout tracking capabilities invaluable for my occasional exercise sessions. A standout feature for me is the built-in cellular connectivity. This allows me to leave my iPhone Pro Max at home during runs, providing a sense of freedom and convenience. The battery life is impressive, comfortably supporting extended workouts and lasting approximately two days under standard use. While charging takes a bit longer, incorporating it into my morning routine ensures the watch is ready for daily use. I also appreciate the sleep tracking feature, which offers valuable insights into my rest patterns. However, the watch’s bulkiness is noticeable, especially when wearing clothing with tight cuffs, which requires some adjustment. The customizable Action Button is a convenient addition, offering quick access to frequently used apps like the Workout app. Personalizing this button has enhanced its utility, tailoring the watch to my specific needs. Overall, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 delivers a satisfying experience, combining robust features with user-friendly design, making it a worthwhile investment for those seeking a reliable and functional smartwatch.

Much better software and smart watch functionality compared to my Garmin’s Forerunner 265 and 570, albeit I prefer their form factor. Complements Wahoo Elemnt Roam/Bolt 3 bike computers; wahoo app will export workouts in their entirety to Apple Health/Fitness. Is missing native spO2 viewing on the watch and incorporation into Vitals app. I swapped Indigo Alpine Loop for Anchor Blue Ocean Band; notably more comfortable.

Lovely watch, pitiful cheap strap. Had to get a strap replacement immediately.

Expensive but nice. Slightly bigger screen. Battery lasts MUCH longer.
