Customers are impressed with the Apple Watch Ultra's long battery life, with many reporting that it lasts for several days before needing to be charged. They also appreciate the larger screen size, describing it as "great" and "the best part" of the watch. The watch's durability is another highlight, with users noting that it has held up well to tough conditions. However, some customers find the watch to be heavy and the bands to be expensive.

    This is a great watch all around. Its large screen is easily visible and uses every bit of the screen. It Also has great battery life that I tested and got more than 72 hours of use before needing to charge it. As well as providing faces that allow a lot of info to be present while providing cool animations that you don’t get on the other watches. My old Apple Watch I wore a few times and stopped just bc it died within a day and I just didn’t like looking at. I don’t have that issue with the Ultra, I wear it to bed sometimes just to play with it and some of the sleep features that it provides. It’s fun, looks nice, feels of my quality that what you pay for it lasts for days and the screen is bright. I do a lot of hiking and kayaking and it’s features for those hobbies are next level. Only issue is that it automatically dims in lowlight and there is no way to change that. Also, the Alpine loop band feels incredibly generic and is not worth getting. I switched it out for an old band from my 45mm watch bc the bands are the same size. I suggest selecting one of the other two bands offered. 4 stars only bc of the auto dimming feature and the alpine loop band is generic.

    Rock solid watch for the price, and I can actually see what I am looking at now vs on the smaller 44mm Apple Watch 5 I had. 2 day battery life, bright 2000 nit screen helps when you’re outside so you can actually see what’s going on the watch, highly recommend for anyone traveling. Used in Europe and the backtracking feature works flawlessly! The quality is top notch, this watch is everything the 42, 44 and 45mm should have been, 10/10 feel and quality!!

    I love it excellent product and lives up to its high asking price. Between it’s almost indestructible durability, bigger screen, better battery life and additional functionality it delivers on a better overall Apple Watch experience. A+++++++++++

    I LOVE this watch. I have had several Apple Watches, but decided I wanted the Ultra this go around. I am absolutely glad I got it. I’m no professional athlete, but I’m no slouch either. I keep in shape, but it’s not the main reason I got the watch. It really comes down to screen and battery. The brightness of the watch in sunlight is unparalleled, and the battery can easily go a few days between charges. I wasn't a big fan of the Alpine Loop, but it goes great with my Nomad Ultra Orange band. If you’re on the fence, and trying to figure out whether or not to spend the extra money, I’d say go ahead. You’ll kick yourself if you don’t. Especially when you can catch it on sale.

    I have had this watch for 45 days and it is way better, with a larger screen, much better battery, great design. It is not as heavy as it looks, feels solid. I didn't like the alpine loop, so I replaced with the ocean band, very nice feel. I am waiting on the trail loop band, it seems that there is not a lot extra bands. I ordered trail loop from Apple 45 day wait! I came from the series 7 45mm.

    As always! Apple products deliver. Their products are always superb. No wonder they remain at the top of the charts. Easily the best Apple Watch by a long shot. The screen is bright & big. The apps are intuitive and the watch battery is the best so far!

    This is by far the best Apple Watch I have owned. I love the size and the rugged look. I think the price was a little high compared to the other series and they also don’t have the GPS option alone. That would help with the cost if they made one.

    When Apple announced this watch I said to my self that I wouldn’t upgrade to this watch because 1 the price and 2 I don’t swim or hike and stuff. I kept watching video reviews and a lot of people said don’t look at it as a outdoor hobby kind of watch. I’ve always gone with the cheaper aluminum watch and I was thinking of upgrading to a stainless steel version. Come to find out the ultra and the stainless steel version are the same price. So I decided to go with the ultra and I’m extremely happy I did. Battery life is so much better and the speaker is much louder. I like that it has a different ringtone than the smaller models. If really feels premium with the extra weight and putting a screen protector is so much easier with the flat screen. The band is very comfortable as well. This watch is definitely worth it.

    At first I thought it would be to big for everyday use but it’s still light and the extra screen size is nice. The extra battery life is amazing. I did switch to a sport loop band because it’s easier to adjust but use this one on weekends.

    Apple Watch Ultra looks good and is good. It is constant communication with you about your activities and movement that it becomes a friend on your wrist. This watch is rugged. I have used it for swimming, hiking, rock climbing and hiking. I would recommend buying with all three bands. They are all good. You can switch them in seconds, according to what you are doing and how you feel or where you are going. I'm very happy with my Apple Watch Ultra. What I did not expect is that I wear it all the time. It's more than an activity watch. It makes its own statement.

    I absolutely LOVE this watch!! It is extremely durable. I’ve taken it in the pool and swam laps with it on and the dive (depth) app works perfectly. The battery life is absolutely amazing on it. I tried to see just how long I could go from full to 1% charge and it went 48 hrs on one charge. DEFINITELY worth the money!!

    Purchased the Ultra after looking at all 3 versions. I wanted to upgrade from my old watch, which was a series 3 .I decided to go with the Apple Watch Ultra, because of how rugged it is, I’m always outdoors and needed something that could handle the conditions so far I’ve been impressed. My only complaint would be the price of it

    The quality is worth the money alone. Then there’s the size. Feels much more masculine and robust! The original Apple Watch just felt too small for me. I would 100% recommend this upgrade! The build quality is incredible and i use this thing every single day multiple times a day! It’s been awesome!

    Really in love with the battery. Once you turn off always on display your battery life goes from 36 hours to 45-96 hours depending on what you use it for. I barely use it for cellular but more of use it for my workout and sleep and heart monitoring and i get good 3-5 days from a whole 100%

    Upgraded from a series 5 and I absolutely love it. Main reason is having almost two days if not a little more of battery life. Watch is durable. Screen does not seem too big, and it’s perfect for my workouts
