I've been using the Apple Watch Ultra 3 for about a month now, and it has completely transformed how I approach my fitness routine and outdoor adventures.
The battery life is outstanding. I'm regularly getting close to three full days on a single charge, even with GPS tracking during long trail runs. This is a game-changer compared to my previous Series 8, which needed daily charging.
The brightness of the display is remarkable. I do a lot of hiking and cycling, and even in direct sunlight, the screen remains perfectly readable. The Action Button is incredibly useful too—I've programmed it to instantly start my workout tracking, which saves time when I'm gearing up for a run.
The durability gives me real peace of mind. I've banged it against rocks while climbing and submerged it during open water swims, and it hasn't shown a single scratch on the titanium case. The sapphire crystal display is holding up beautifully.
The health tracking features are more accurate than ever. The heart rate monitoring during high-intensity intervals seems spot-on, and the new depth gauge worked flawlessly during a recent snorkeling trip.
If you're an active person who needs reliable performance in demanding conditions, the Ultra 3 is absolutely worth the investment. It's the most capable fitness and adventure watch I've owned.

Great Apple Watch as always. Its battery and overall strength are great to have. Satellite feature was a huge selling point for me as well as the ease of use. Only issue I’ve had is it sliding on my wrist a little since it’s heavier than the normal watch, I have the Alpine loop band, but it’s not enough to drop a star or deter anyone from making this purchase.

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 has been a game-changer for my daily routine.
Its health tracking and sleep monitoring give me clear, actionable insights I actually use.
Reliable, intuitive, and powerful, it feels like a personal wellness coach on my wrist.

I bought this watch as a gift to my husband, he loved it. It fit perfect and was super easy to sync to his existing Apple ID and transition from his former Apple Watch to this one. The upgrade is really great. I like that the glass screen is protected around the edge, but still purchased a bumper and a screen protector because he does work outside. Overall, I know its a pricer option, but it was worth it in my opinion.

This version of the Apple Watch is quite nice. I retains all the features of the previous versions I have owned and has added additional ones. It is a bit heavier, but the battery life is much better. I look forward to its continued use and utility.

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 was an amazing upgrade from my old watch. It has many great features like the ECG, Blood oxygen monitoring and much more. Would highly recommend this watch to anyone looking to upgrade their wrist apparel.

The Apple Watch is great but the price was a bit much. Setting aside the price, the watch is great and really easy to use and is great quality. The band is great but wish it was offered in a bigger size.

Love my Ultra 2: bright screen, 36hr battery, spot-on GPS, Action Button rocks. Tough, comfy, life-saving alerts. Worth every dollar I spent. Bestbuy Rock!

I've been using the Apple Watch Ultra 3 for a while now, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations. The watch feels very robust; the titanium case is both stylish and reassuring in terms of scratch resistance during daily use. The screen is very bright and easily readable even in direct sunlight.
Battery performance is significantly better than previous Apple Watches. It easily lasts almost two days with normal use, which is a big plus for me. It also provides very detailed measurements in terms of sports and health tracking; the activity tracking and GPS accuracy are particularly impressive. It's perfect for those who enjoy outdoor walks and sports.
The watch is very fluid and responsive; I haven't experienced any freezing or lag. Its compatibility with the iPhone is, of course, flawless. Notifications, calls, and apps work seamlessly.
The price is high, but considering the quality, durability, and features it offers, it's a product that's worth the money. I would definitely recommend it to anyone planning to use it for a long time and looking for a robust smartwatch.

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is an outstanding and rugged smartwatch that excels in adventure tracking, daily health monitoring, and battery stamina. It is the best and most durable Apple Watch available. While the design is largely unchanged from the Ultra 2, its value comes from the practical battery life increase—which pushes it closer to a true multi-day device—and the addition of vital two-way satellite communication
I would recommend this to a friend

The extended battery life does make difference from the ultra 2. The screen is brighter and I feel like the new chip is more responsive than previous gen ! This has new features I think I totally worth the buy

As a former Apple Ultra first edition I ever owned for two years. it was overall good but need recharging slightly often after use. It was a bit annoyed for me. However I was supposed to go for Apple Ultra second edition for upgrade but I decided to wait until it came out for a third edition Apple Ultra and finally bought it.
I was doing test it and surprising how it turned out well than I expected. I have no problem with charging and it is still full 100% for one day then recharging the next day. Everything went smooth and new features additional. It is BEAST! I am glad with my decision that I purchased.

This is my first Apple Watch and I haven't been very impressed, and honestly regret this a bit. I'm treating it as a stand-in for a phone upgrade for 3+ years, so this will last me that entire time (absent mechanical issues), so it helps take the sting out.
With that being said, the device isn't bad, it's just... Apple's software issues are abysmal and they're getting worse by the year. I am an Apple person, and am writing this on a Macbook, and aside from PC Gaming, have been using Apple devices exclusively for a decade for most computing purposes. The quality control at Apple over the last few years has been terrible.
Frequently, my watch will not do things it's supposed to do. People will text me, and it's 50/50 whether it reaches me. People call me, I answer on the watch, but for some reason the call is picked up on my LOCKED phone instead. There are times where I put the alarm clock to 'Snooze' and it decides to turn off entirely. There are times when the alarm clock vibration doesn't go off, but the sound does... But it's sound from these tiny speakers that could be missed if you wear ear-plugs to sleep (me).
Frequently, I ask Siri to do something and it just doesn't work. The reminders app is a buggy mess. Every app I've liked so far has been from another publisher. The flashlight app on the watch dims itself when facing away from me for no apparent reason... What's the point of a flashlight app that dims itself?
In my use case, getting the Apple Watch Ultra 3 was a bit overkill, but I would have had the same experience on the Series watches too. I think if Apple had the same standards they had back when people like me didn't exist, and just gobbled anything they release up, this would be a freakin' amazing device. It's got soooo much potential, and I honestly do find myself using it often for various things. However, Apple as a software company is just losing it lately. I plan to wear out all of my Apple devices over the next decade, as long as they last, but I'm not sure what the future holds here for this company or my willingness to buy their products.
