Been enjoying my Apple Watch Ultra. Use it for sleep tracking, texting, occasionally answer calls, control music on my HomePod while in the shower, use it for sleep tracking and have multiple shortcuts set up on the Action button. Getting about 2 1/2 days of battery life.
How you sleep with a watch
@@yanc8599 It just doesn't bother me, been doing it for years, so I feel like it's wrong if I don't.
Where do u see the findings of ur sleep ?
@@tspirate It pops up on the iPhone in the morning.
@@yanc8599 Huh??
My action button is my flashlight, used religiously LOL 😆
I second this
Swear to god it’s useful in times I need it
my too, my epix has a vastly better flashlight though. AWU has vastly better software!
I ordered a Tefeca wideband off Amazon and it’s EXTREMELY comfortable, the other bands irritated my skin, but this is the band for me.
I love my Ultra 2 but it definitely less comfortable than my 8 wasbut only having to charge it every two to three days is nice. I ordered mine with the blue Ocean band and a trail loop and had to send the trail loop back as it caused a rash on my wrist. The Ocean band is perfect and I like how it’s waterproof for workouts, the trail loop would stay wet which was annoying. Overall I would highly recommend the Ultra 2
Even though my main use cases for the watch are different than yours and if I made this video I’d definitely highlight a few different things (in addition to the many features we share common appreciation for) I really respect that you are so up front about what features you do/don’t use. All of the features are great but it’s how the features work with our own styles that matters most. It’s a fresh and realistic take and I like it.
I got the ultra 2 comin. My wife is like who needs the 800 dollar watch. I replied ballers brah. Why do people buy Rolex watches to ball son.
Just got mine Friday and I have fallen in love with it ❤
I’m selecting one now & am getting the exact same reaction. 😅
I’m with you on most of this. As a runner, the extra GPS accuracy is nice for pace tracking, but most of the appeal of this watch is the durability and battery life. I’d love if it were longer, but considering all it does I’m thrilled with a 2-ish day battery life on a single charge, especially since I lengthen that life by charging it every time I shower. Once a week or so I’ll keep it charging for an extra hour to get to 100%, but that’s enough for me.
Love my Ultra 2! Battery life and the larger screen are my two favorites features. Along with it being g more rugged.
How is the battery life on the ultra 2? Same as the ultra first or longer?
@@vincecool72 I didn’t have the Ultra 1, but I understand that the battery life on the 2 is a bit better.
@@vincecool72 Apple rates both to have the same battery life but depending on your use it varies
Love your realistic view on the device :)
I like your average-person every day usage point of view. I am buying a new Apple Watch Ultra 2 soon and putting to rest my old AW series 7 which has suffered a lot and it shows! Thumbs up!
I picked up my Apple Watch Ultra 2 in October and it’s been absolutely fantastic and I typically get 3 to 3.5 days off a charge
So I’m curious if Apple is using a different grade of Titanium on the Ultra than they did on the Apple Watch Edition? I have an Apple Watch Edition Series 5 & Series 7 Edition, my wife also has a Series 7 Edition and not one of the watches has a mark on the case. My wife wears hers in the garden all the time, digging in the dirt. I’m always plying with our dogs with mine on and sometimes get scratches on my arms from roughhousing with them but my watches have not a mark on them, a few bands do though.
has anyone noticed a vary small gap at the top or on the side of the Apple Watch ultra?
I really love this watch and I will continue to use it but I'm wondering if its no longer waterproof.
I got my Ultra gen 1 on launch day. Still my daily driver, still my favourite Apple Watch. And on the latest warchOS update, my battery health just dropped to 99%. Kind of a bummer but obviously batteries degrade & frankly lasted longer than my iPhone 14 Pro battery health.
i have the 14 max and the ultra, had them as well from day 1. Both of mine are still at 100 percent battery health. My ultra is my daily watch as well.
using the u as reg aw review, nice and practical
I love my Apple watch ultra 2. I have had it since September and I can say that I have not had any issues with battery life. I can usually get about just over 2 Days of use out of it before having to charge the battery. Do I wish that I could go more days without having to charge the watch? Of course I do, but I do feel like it is a step in the right direction because I have owned many different series of the regular Apple Watches and the Ultra battery is a lot better. The only gripe that I have with the Ultra 2 is that for some reason I have to call out to Siri multiple times for her to hear and respond to me.
I have the ultra 2. Everything that I can possibly turn off is off. I use it for text/calls only. Lasts me 3 days easy. It’s the best. And I even leave my house without my phone a lot.
I’ve had the Apple Watch Ultra for. 2 months now. I’m enjoying the brighter display, the larger display,long battery life, I be gotten 30 hours of battery life, luv sleep tracking, fitness app, leaving my phone at home. Of course the roughness and toughness of it. I’ve even had some people to ask me what type of Apple Watch is that 😂 😊
Also have the original Ultra since launch day. Battery health dropped to 89% by now. I am pretty disappointed with that. After about 1/2 a year I even don’t let it drop below 20% anymore to stress the battery less.
I use it for 60-80min outdoor workout without phone most days and could get two days with that in the first months, but now basically have to charge each night after 20-22h with about 30% battery left.
Anyone else has a similar experience?
Seems most others have maintained significantly better battery health.
Excellent video I enjoyed it thoroughly !!!
I have the original ultra as well, and I love it maybe a slight blemish on the metal but I can barely tell if I have to really look at to see but it’s been awesome. I have no issue with it. Best choice ever made as far as the Apple Watch, I work in retail so I’m constantly banging that thing around with stocking or whatever I’m doing in the store and it’s held up fantastic I never thought to upgrade to the second one because like you said it was minimal.
Sidenote I just upgraded my iPhone 14 Pro Max to the 15 Pro Max last week because that iPhone was the worst battery performance of any iPhone I’ve ever ever owned. I’ve had them all since the 3G, truth be told my iPhone 13 Pro Max was probably the best as far as battery life as far as experience goes. That was just additional thought while I was rambling lol Again love the video!!!
My day 0 Apple Watch Ultra used daily still has 100% battery health.
mine as well
Is it in cupboard or using ?😂
@@ravisiva1234 mine is my daily driver.
Being disabled, I’m never going to use it for the extreme things they marketed it towards. However, my left arm can move uncontrollably and the Watch will hit things. I don’t have any scratches on the Ultra because of my arm hitting things. You can compare that to my older Apple Watch 6 which shows a vast amount of scratches.
I need the durability of the Ultra. I use the Health features of the Ultra, even if I’m not using the Fitness features. It is on my wrist aside from those times when it is charging or I am showering.
What is the black strap? It looks really good.
Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.
Makes me glad I went with the S9
I recommend switching the orientation. The buttons no longer accidentally click on you.
Been using my Ultra since about 2 months after launch. I exercise every single day and have done 25 mile hikes with it. Battery life is always great because I have my phone. So it’s offloading a lot to the phone. When I’m running with just the ultra, the LTE eats through the battery even when I’m listening to downloaded music and not streaming. A 1 hour run would chomp through 25-30% even though I’m within 1 mile of a tower. A 2.5 hour run had the battery at 30%. I don’t use low power mode and I think that feature shouldn’t be used when tracking activity. Why would I ever want less data when I’m trying to collect data? Only the bezel has some scratches. Screen is perfect. Overall, I’m hoping for more battery and better sensors for even more precision data. Also the bugs gotta be fixed. Using gym kit equipment is still hit or miss. Need to do a soft reset just to get it to connect to the equipment. I get spring board crashes to.
Thanks for the honest view on your time with it. I feel like I’d really like an ultra but just can’t bring myself to spend $800 on a watch.
I thought the same thing and then I think people spend thousands on a Rolex and it only tells time lol.
@@frwd87 A smartwatch in 2 years will cost nothing, a Rorex in 20 years will cost the same or more expensive. That's the diference
Hey friend with taxes and apple care it’ll rack up almost 1100 buy se or refurbished model
Relatable review, great video. Subcribed and liked. Ordering mine now. Cheers
Hey CHRIS: I LIKE YOUR TASTE IN MUSIC, could you do a playlist please❤️❤️😊
I bought the ultra launch day. First edition, battery is still 3 day span.
ditto
I just bought the ultra 2 and man what a game changer.
I got the Ultra 1, go it on release, and I got the Garmin Epix pro gen 2. I love the design of my Epix more, and the battery life is awesome. But I still wear my AWU more. I'm a bicycle mechanic and I bang my AWU against stuff every day and it still is scratch free. Apple software is just a lot better then garmins software. If AWU had half the battery life of garmin, and a bit better tracking when you leave cellular service, it would kill garmin. I don't mess with power settings, and I get about 3 days of use. I pay attention to my sleep more when I wear my garmin watch. Love the morning report garmin gives you. Apple should do something like that. If you don't go look at your sleep stats you won't pay attention to it on the AWU.
Battery life is awesome, 4 days with sleep tracking also. That's Ultra 2. Many reviews confirm this, I did have the older Apple Watches & always stainless steel or aluminium, came with sapphire always & never had problems with screen damage.
Il mio Ultra2 arriva a 3 giorni con 3 notti di monitoraggio del sonno e tre camminate da 45’ con GPS attivo, notifiche disattivate, niente musica. Escludo arrivi a 4 giorni, a meno di disattivare l’accensione del display con la rotazione del polso o senza complicazioni e schermo scuro e semplice. Non ci credo si arrivi al 4º giorno quando io arrivo al terzo con un uso minimale. 🤔
I got mine around release and mine has been amazing, love every minute of it so far. It doesn’t have any damage other than a couple extremely light which might have just occurred at the manufacture. I can still get a good 2 days out of it
Surprisingly, I feel like the Apple Watch Ultra has the most practical features out of all the current models. For those of us who want our watch to be more than just a fitness tool, this watch is great. Even though this watch was geared towards extreme environments, it honestly is an awesome productivity tool and can also help with disconnecting from the toxic world of social media, etc. I just wish they would make a less expensive option or include some of these productivity features in the base models. That being said, I do love my Ultra and feel that for me personally, it was worth the price.
I have the cellular Apple Watch Ultra I’m thinking about trading mine in for the series 9 this is just to bulky for me I still have to charge it everyday
Yeah, I don’t know why you need to charge it every day. And I use cellular service.
@@RetiredDealerBayArea people use devices differently so that’s a dumb question
A year later I still get 2 1/2 days I’m happy
Love my Ultra 2
Anyone know how this watch holds up in a sauna? Will it shut off in the heat?
I have had my apple watch ultra 2 since it came out, i went from series 8 to ultra 2. Its my fav watch of all time, i didnt like the durability of the series 8. I love that i can go 3-4 days without charging it :)
My series 4 never scratched but series 7 has a ton of scratches.
Does the ekg function work? Many people complain that after ios 17 it no longer works...my calls to apple did not change a thing...still does not work even tho it worked fine on all other apple watches in the past and all ios versions. Apple even sent me a new watch. Nope no dice. Per your battery life observations.....all week would be nice but i will settle for 2/3 days on a charge
This was a great video. But to be honest I’m more in love with the smooth, elegant, pebble-like design of the “normal” Apple Watches ⌚️.
Yes, but the Bluetooth sound quality is a lot worse than on an iPhone. I was really disappointed and almost returned my UW2.
I had to laugh when you said you use the flashlight a lot. I don't have the Ultra but I've had the regular apple watch for the past few years. I use the flashlight all the time. My ears perked up when you said the Ultra's flashlight is good. May be a reason I upgrade soon. Sounds ridiculous but true.
this dude deadass complained about the battery life cause he wants an all week battery, okay
I wish there was a single tap on the bezel to get my recently used apps is there any where to bring this function back?
I have no issues with the original Ultra and the battery.
Hello from Tennessee
Oh I wish this watch could do so much more. I have a love hate relationship with this watch. Some of which are easy fixes. Firstly battery life for this watch is not good. You cannot leave home on a Friday morning and come back Sunday evening with the watch charged after an adventure weekend. Some people will say oh just use low power mode. This defeats the whole purpose of the adventure and proper tracking. The fitness software is just below par compared to competitors. People will say use third party app like analytic. This app is rubbish compared to Garmin out of the box recovery matrix. Apple could easily solve this problem. They don’t even have a health app on the watch. This is mind blowing to me. Surely this will eventually come. Running and cycling information and data is just miles behind garmin. In a nutshell this watch is just a smart watch. My issue with the watch is that it’s advertised as a rugged sports watch. It’s rugged but a toy in terms of software when compared to proper sports watches. For this reason I keep returning to my Garmin Epix Pro 51mm which has 10days batters life (flashlight is awesome). I want to use the AW Ultra and it has potential but all it really is, is a smart watch.
Battery isn’t an issue for me. I've got my my Watch Ultra on October 2022 and I charge it before sleeping for 30 min. I sleep with it and I wake up everyday at 4:45. Fitness for an hour, then work the whole day. At the end of the day (8:00pm), it is at 55% battery. I’m totally fine with this. I wear it with thr Ocean Band yellow colour. I have the ocean band midnight blue and orange (original) but the yellow is the one I wear always.
Same issue ;(
Apple Watch ⌚️ 5 mm 28
The only con for me for this watch is the battery, it’s better than the other Apple Watches batteries but not impressive compared to brand like Garmin and others that theirs can even go close to a month depends on the users, apple needs to really pay attention to days battery life, it’s already doing many things we need or use but we need days of battery life, even the 36 hour battery they said is a joke
I own a Garmin watch too, I love my ultra because am too invested on apple ecosystem but my Garmin blew my ultra out of the water
I purchased the ultra 2 & love it , no I don’t climb mountains & go deep see diving but it’s there if I want too 😂 the battery life is fantastic & just love the way it looks . Yes it’s expensive but in my mind this is one of the best smart watches on the market today 👍🏻 great video thank you 😊
This is why I gave up on Apple Watch, which wasn’t easy for me. The battery life sucks so I went with a Garmin that gave me just enough smart function with amazing battery life.
No thanks
Maybe it’s time for apple to make a version without all that iron man stuff. And make an Apple Watch pro version. A bigger more durable watch with the bigger battery. Basically a stronger, longer lasting version of the regular Apple Watch.
Chris have you notice burn on the scene of the ultra 2
