I love the new Ultra 2 Apple Watch because it has a much bigger screen, the battery life is amazing, and it’s comfortable to wear. The bigger screen helps me to focus on the time or notifications that display clearly onscreen since having eye surgery. This is literally the best purchase I’ve made in the Apple Watch line. I love the new lock in place band feature but need to invest in an extra large band for more room.

Was it worth it? Apple Watch Ultra 2 Review

I absolutely love my Apple Watch Ultra 2! It's not just a watch; it's like a fashion statement that goes with everything I wear. It's especially great for guys, but if you're a woman who digs the big watch trend, this will work for you too.
What really makes it stand out are all its cool features. I've got these hand gestures set up – a total game changer! Just a flick of my fingers and I can flip through apps, and with Clockology, I get all these awesome watch faces to choose from.
I've customized it to be super convenient. A double tap and Siri's there, no need to say anything. A single tap and I'm scrolling through menus. You can set it up for anything, like firing up Shazam or using Apple Pay, just like that.
And talk about tough! This thing can take a beating and still look brand new. I've accidentally hit it against my desk a bunch of times, and not a single scratch.
Battery life's a big surprise too. I'm messing with it all the time since it's still new to me, and it lasts like three days on a single charge.
So, is it worth it? Totally, if you can swing the price. Sure, there are cheaper watches out there, but none of them come close to what this baby offers.

Apple's Watch Ultra 2 pushes the envelope with its robust build and advanced functionality. The new design is both durable and stylish, fitting comfortably on the wrist during intense workouts or outdoor expeditions. The addition of the new action button is a welcome feature for quick, customizable shortcuts. Battery life has seen a notable improvement, lasting longer between charges, which is essential for long treks. The only downside is the high cost, which may be a barrier for casual users. Nonetheless, for serious athletes and adventurers, the Ultra 2 is a worthwhile investment.

Watch looks big/heavy but is very lite, the technology on it is amazing vivid pics, detail calling much better use without your phone other then previous versions.

The watch is perfect. Long battery life. Good screen real estate. Really bright screen(You can view anything on a bright day on it. But it is still a little expensive. Buy it only if you need it. Otherwise go with the series 9(or whatever is latest).

Upgraded from series 7+cell. Ultra 2 getting 2-3 days battery life. Even before all the firmware drama the month of November. Screen size is amazing. Love the ocean blue band. Comfortable on my wrist. No turning back.

I always thought the ultra would be too bulky on my wrist, but now that I own it, I love it. From the bigger screen that can do more options, depending upon the face that you pick to the battery that lasts much longer to the band that is more comfortable, there is nothing bad I can say about this watch. I would definitely recommend this watch to everyone that can afford it.

I bought this going from a gen 1 steel case Apple Watch and obviously the difference is night and day.
I had a Lunatik Epik case on my gen 1 watch its whole life and it kept it scratch free and safe, and I liked the bulkier case look and wider bands. The Ultra 2 is exactly the same size as my original set up, just as durable of material, and the added bonus is the bevel around the right side to keep me from taking accidental screenshots all day.
I’ve had this watch now a few months and it has kept looking new and performing great the whole time. I have even accidentally submerged it in cement while mixing cement to build a brick wall and it easily washed off with a hose.
The band is perfect for my active & abusive lifestyle. The rubber keeps it from smelling funky and is easily washable. It wipes clean within a few seconds, and isn’t showing any signs of wear, tearing, discoloration, etc.
The internals themselves I can’t speak too far on as I don’t have a newer comparable Apple Watch, but I’d assume they are as good or better than all the other versions. I’ve yet to be let down by it. It speedy, does everything I need of it, and the display is amazing. Going from Gen 1 to Gen 9 the screen was way bigger (but actually the same outer dimensions) and brighter allowing me to see it from waist distance instead of having to put it to my face and squint.
The WiFi/bluetooth signal is almost too good. I’m used to not getting notifications at work with my old watch as my phone is put away in a locker and across a large resort. The Ultra 2 is able to still deliver notifications and answer phone calls effortlessly, making me have to remember to put it on silent mode or airplane mode daily. lol.
The only issues I could state would be the removal of the Oxygen Sensor (was “removed” after a few months of sales due to a lawsuit and probably won’t be re-enabled) though the app is still present, and the slight sharpness of the display bezel. I have scrapped a few walls paint off with it when accidentally hitting them.
Also though I understand the whole “reduce, recycle” and “low carbon” aspect, the box you receive the Ultra 2 in does not make it feel like a $800 item. More akin to a cheap knock off watch. I really enjoyed the box and plastic case my Gen 1 Steel watch came in. It was more luxurious and presentable, and I personally kept it as a collectible item (which the Gen 1 watch was placed back in when I bought this one). For collectors or people thinking they could sell it years down the road like original iPods, cheap thin cardboard will NOT bring desirability or even keep a “new” look.

If you're someone who enjoys spending time camping or hitting the trails, this watch is a solid pick. The battery life is impressive—it easily keeps up with long outdoor excursions without needing a recharge. It’s reliable, rugged, and definitely a good find for nature lovers who value practicality and performance.

I pre-ordered the Ultra 2 on Wednesday and received it Saturday after the initial launch.
Set up was super simple and I had the watch up and running in a matter of 10 minutes.
The battery life has been great so far and I was able to go from Sunday evening to Wednesday evening and probably could have waited to charge until Thursday.
I am still working on what settings I want for the face of the watch but find this an amazing upgrade from my Apple 3 Watch!
Although this watch has a steep price I plan on keeping it for many years!

My last Apple Watch was the 4th generation steel frame with sapphire glass. It withstood the test of time under very harsh conditions. The ultra 2 is even a more robust watch with a much faster processor, comfortable to wear and an unreadable battery life. I wear this watch to bed as well as the entire day. Also, I have been answering occasional calls with it. Despite the more aggressive use the Ultra 2 battery lasts over two days and charges to 100% in a matter of couple of hours. It is an awesome watch. Money well spent. With my Total Tech membership from Best Buy I got a good deal using my rewards and received the 2 year Apple Care for free.

My Hubbie and I recently picked up an Apple Ultra Watch for him from the Best Buy store in Apex, and the whole experience was good from start to finish. As soon as we walked, we were helped by a salesperson who really knew his stuff. He took the time to answer every question we had, explained the features of the different watche models, went in to buy the Series 10 on special and walked out with the Ultra which was also on special. What stood out most was how easy and stress-free the process felt — no pressure, no hassle, just straightforward and helpful service. The checkout was quick and smooth, and my Hubbie left the store feeling confident and excited about our new watch. Overall, it was one of the easiest and most pleasant shopping experiences we’ve had, and we’ll definitely be coming back to this location in the future.

Love my Ultra 2. Hardly ever take it off except to charge every couple of days (few if used with low energy). Accurate readings. Purchased with Ocean band but wish I bought with Melanese band as it’s lighter and fancier looking. Would have purchased the ocean band seperatly.

Absolutely love the watch. It’s a class you carry on. Always wanted to get one and decided to get it one fine day. Got it through the Bestbuy Citi card and availed the 10% cash back where I got a $75 reward certificate few days later. Coming to the watch, explored it a bit and it’s has many many features that we can’t even think about. It’s a bit pricey but I would say go for it, once for all!
