Customer Ratings & Reviews

I upgraded from the AWU1 and the battery life on the AWU3 is AWESOME. It charges fast. From 45% to 80% in 10-15 minutes. I can easily get 2.5 days if setup correctly. VERY pleased! Cons: I want more watch faces or more customizable watch faces.

I finally broke down and bought an Ultra 3. Even though I will not use most of the options, the larger screen, battery life, and it is noticeably faster than the Series 10 I had. Best Buy made it an easy purchase.

Here’s a clean, well-rounded review you can use or post, written from the perspective of upgrading from a Series 7: ⸻ I recently upgraded from the Apple Watch Series 7 to the Apple Watch Ultra 3, and the difference is immediately noticeable. While the Series 7 was a solid everyday smartwatch, the Ultra 3 feels like a completely different class of device. The first thing that stands out is the build quality. The Ultra 3 feels incredibly rugged and premium at the same time. The titanium case gives it a durable, tool-watch feel without being overly heavy on the wrist. Compared to the Series 7, it feels far more capable and confidence-inspiring, especially for outdoor or active use. The display is another major upgrade. It’s brighter, larger, and much easier to read in direct sunlight. On the Series 7, outdoor visibility was fine, but the Ultra 3 takes it to another level. Everything from workout stats to notifications is clearer and more glanceable. Battery life is where the Ultra 3 really separates itself. Coming from the Series 7, which usually needed daily charging, the Ultra 3 easily lasts multiple days with normal use. That alone makes the upgrade feel worthwhile, especially for workouts, long days, or travel where charging isn’t always convenient. Performance is noticeably smoother, and features geared toward fitness and outdoor activities feel more refined. GPS accuracy is excellent, workouts track reliably, and the extra physical button is genuinely useful during exercise when you don’t want to rely on the touchscreen. Overall, upgrading from the Apple Watch Series 7 to the Ultra 3 feels less like a routine update and more like stepping into a professional-grade smartwatch. If you’ve been using a standard Apple Watch and want better durability, longer battery life, and a more capable experience—especially for fitness or outdoor use—the Ultra 3 is a significant and satisfying upgrade.

Love the new Apple Watch Ultra 3. Traded it in for my ultra 1 in silver. Black looks great on wrist and love the new upgrades.

I upgraded from the Apple Watch Ultra 2 to the Ultra 3, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. The watch itself is awesome, fast, solid, and exactly what you expect from the Ultra line. What really made this purchase a no-brainer was the Black Friday deal at Best Buy. The Ultra 3 was $120 off, and I also received a $250 trade-in credit for my Ultra 2, which made the upgrade incredibly affordable. Great watch at an awesome price. Highly recommend both the product and the deal.

The battery life is exceptional (around two days) and the performance is great.

Like the new features! Good battery need to charge maybe twice a week

’ve been using the Apple Watch Ultra for a while now, and it’s hands down the best smartwatch I’ve ever owned. The titanium case feels extremely solid and premium, yet it’s surprisingly comfortable for all-day wear. The Black Ocean Band is sturdy, flexible, and perfect for both workouts and daily use. Performance is outstanding—everything is fast, smooth, and reliable. Battery life is noticeably better than previous Apple Watch models, easily lasting through long days with workouts, notifications, and cellular use. The display is incredibly bright and easy to read even in direct sunlight. The health and fitness tracking features are top-notch, especially for training and outdoor activities. GPS accuracy is excellent, and having cellular connectivity without needing my phone is a huge plus. Overall, this is a premium device that delivers on every front: build quality, performance, battery life, and functionality. Highly recommended if you want the best Apple Watch available.

I love the Ultra3. I was worried it would be too big at 49mm, but it just looks so dang good. Spend a little extra and get it.

The watch has a very nice design and many useful features. I sincerely recommend it.

Work and does Great. Do recommend! The bands are a little rubbery on your skin if it’s sensitive

This is my first ultra watch and I love it. I only take it off to charge while I shower, other than that I wear this thing all the time. It's got a great battery life.

The Ultra 3 Apple Watch is the best I've owned. The health functions including BP are a tremendous help. The watch is beautiful as well.

I greatly enjoy the enhanced battery life versus the original, which I had before I upgraded. Plus it has better fitness features.

The new Apple watch ultra 3 is amazing and has great battery life. The functions are easy to read and access. The band is comfortable.

Its Apple. The watch is beautiful. Display is stunning. I love it. I also love the Best Buy 5% back through my Best Buy card.

Very amazing watch. Came from the very old series 3. So it was a huge upgrade. The battery length and size of the screen are phenomenal.

THE bomb! love it! love the size, color, and all functions!

Great watch. Durable and easy to use. Primarily use for tracking health related issues

I recently purchased the Apple Watch Ultra 3 (GPS + Cellular) 49mm Titanium Case with Black Ocean Band (2025) and couldn’t be more satisfied with the overall experience. The watch itself is outstanding — premium build quality, excellent performance, and a sleek, rugged design that truly lives up to the Ultra name. Beyond the product, I was especially impressed by the store’s organization and the professionalism of the staff. The team was attentive, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout the entire process, making the purchase smooth and stress-free. Everything was well organized, from product availability to checkout, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended — both the product and the store exceeded my expectations.
