    Love it, better than I expected. Had the Garmin Enduro 3 and after about 16 months it just stopped working. Went back to the Apple Watch and so happy I did.

    Apple Watch Ultra 3 Review: Refinement at Its Peak

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    With the Apple Watch Ultra 3, Apple has taken what was already one of the most capable smartwatches on the market and made it meaningfully better. The Ultra 3 doesn’t reinvent the formula—it perfects it. From the moment you strap it on, the Ultra 3 feels both familiar and improved. The titanium case remains rugged yet elegant, but it’s now lighter and more balanced on the wrist. The new display is brighter and crisper than ever, maintaining legibility even in direct sunlight—a feature outdoor enthusiasts and professionals alike will appreciate. Performance sees another step forward thanks to the updated S10 chip, which brings faster responsiveness and improved efficiency. Battery life, already a hallmark of the Ultra line, benefits from subtle software optimization, stretching even longer between charges. Where Apple’s refinement really shines is in the details. The haptic feedback feels more precise, the GPS accuracy has been enhanced for dense urban areas, and new sensors improve health and activity tracking. The Action Button remains customizable, but Apple has added more flexibility and integration options, making it a genuinely useful control feature rather than a novelty. watchOS 11 ties it all together with smarter training insights, adaptive display modes, and a seamless experience across Apple’s ecosystem. Whether you’re diving, hiking, or just heading to the office, the Ultra 3 feels like a watch that’s ready for everything. Bottom line: The Apple Watch Ultra 3 isn’t a revolution—it’s refinement done right. Apple listened, polished, and improved in all the right places. For anyone serious about durability, performance, and versatility, this is the smartwatch benchmark to beat.

    My Unexpected Ultra 3 Purchase

    The Apple Watch Ultra 3 performs well as a smartwatch. The larger size sits comfortably on my wrist and works with many bands. For outdoor use, the watch delivers strong performance. I hike often, and the rugged build and navigation tools meet my needs. The battery life has exceeded my expectations, even when I use the map and compass during long hikes. I am satisfied with the purchase, and I recommend this watch to others.

    The new 3,000-nit LTPO3 display is a game changer. It’s incredibly bright in direct sunlight, and the wider viewing angles make it much easier to glance at your metrics during a workout without twisting your wrist. Safety First: The addition of Satellite SOS and messaging provides massive peace of mind for hikers and trail runners. Being able to send a "check-in" text without a cellular signal is a top-tier safety feature. Battery Life: The bump to 42 hours (and 72 in low power) means I finally stopped charging it every single night. The improved fast charging—80% in 45 minutes—is the icing on the cake. New Look: The Satin Black titanium finish is stunning and much more "stealth" than the original raw titanium.

    Ultimate Apple Watch with Serious Ambitions—and Tr

    The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is a compelling flagship smartwatch—especially for those who expect more than “just a watch.” It excels when pushed toward its limits: outdoor adventures, remote areas, safety demands, and deep health tracking. If I were advising a prospective buyer: • If you don’t already own an Ultra-level watch, and you spend time outdoors or in remote settings, Ultra 3 is a powerful all-in answer. • If you already own an Ultra 2, the decision to upgrade depends heavily on whether you value satellite connectivity, marginal battery gains, and new health alerts. • For general users mostly in urban settings, many of the Ultra 3 capabilities may go unused—and you might get close to your needs with a less bulky, less expensive model. In my use, it’s been a worthwhile companion—especially when I ventured beyond reliable coverage. But the tradeoff of size, cost, and real-world battery demands means it’s best suited for users who will leverage its full potential.

    Battery life is amazing 4-5 days run time with minimal connectivity to phone, I bought this strictly for the health tracking and sensors. Notifications and apps are great as always. It has at least double the run time of the normal series watches. Only down side is it’s bulky, quite a bit thicker than my wife’s series 10.

    The watch corrects everything and more over my Apple Watch Series 3. As I am swiping on this ultra watch, I am not swiping away accidentally new notifications. That was my problem with my old watch. The battery life is excellent. I went over 3 days without charging!

    I have had Apple Watch’s since they first came out. I have always loved them. The ultra 3 is perfect. The 5g works so much better with connectivity compared to the ultra and ultra 2. The battery life on this watch is amazing! You can’t go wrong with an Apple Watch and the durability of this one is stellar.

    Typical Apple Quality with a Better Battery Life.

    This is my second Apple Watch. My complaint with the first one which was a 2nd gen watch, was the battery. I hate having to charge every day and hoping I don’t run out mid way through the day. I went with Garmin Fenix 7 and love the watch; however, it doesn’t do the things the Apple Watch does. Garmin finally came out with one that does almost everything the Apple Watch does, however, it is $300 more than the Apple Watch Ultra. The Ultra has a much better battery than previous generations. It was touted to be able to go up to 3 days between charges. I decided to try the Ultra because of the $300 savings and because of all it will do. To date, and I’ve had the watch for two weeks, I can go 2 1/2 days between charges if I leave everything on and use it fairly often. If I am exercising a lot and using the gps functions, I get 2 days out of it. Another good thing is the rapid charge with the Apple. If I put it on the charger for 15 minutes in the morning, I have enough charge to last until the next morning. Still kind of tied to the charger compared to the 29 days my Garmin gave me. So far I’m pleased with it the Ultra: however, that being said, if Garmin lowers their price I may go back to the new model as it does almost the same thing as the Apple Watch. If Apple improves their battery life and starts competing with Garmin, I will stay with the Apple. For now, love the watch and am satisfied - for now.
