What’s the biggest reason to get the Ultra? Day to day, I feel the 42mm is perfect, but could be better in many ways. Is the battery a good enough reason to upgrade?
@@TGCid01 lmao. Watch my recent video “apparently y’all don’t know me”. You just might die laughing. I’m in my car singing tracks from the inspiration album.
If I were in your situation I would've done the exact same thing and just waited a couple of days to just realize that I'll be keeping the Ultra Watch and that was already decided when I opened it. Tech devices and gadget are so addicting sometimes. And your enthusiasm about them is what makes the videos!
No problem, it's always worth saying something good. The flat sapphire glass makes that thing already plenty sturdy, but I see why you want to protect the investment. Also not working in automotive anymore helps keeping it safe, right? Hahaha
That was definitely high on my list. I just only use that every once in a blue moon. I actually use voice memo daily. So that’s why I chose what I did.
I agree with you, if the Ultra 3 came out then I would have upgraded from the Ultra 1, but the upgrades to the Series 10 only brought it up to parity with the Ultra. The Ultra 2 is still a far better watch than the Series 10 even if it says 2 on the back instead of 3. The S10 SIP is exactly the same as the S9 SIP except for the display controller for the new low power OLED in the Series 10. That is the only thing that the Series 10 has that the Ultra doesn't have and honestly I don't care about a second hand on my AOD so it's no deal for me anyway. I don't even use any watch faces that have second hands. The Ultra 2 has longer battery life, more accurate GPS, more durable and rugged design, Sapphire lens (which you can get on the titanium Series 10 but then you are paying almost the price of the Ultra so it's a no brainer to get it), siren, action button etc etc. It's just a better watch. The only reason in my mind to get a Series 10 is to save some money but then you only get a glass display which is likely to scratch (I have scratched every apple watch screen I have owned EXCEPT the Ultra 1 that I am still rocking and still looks like new after almost 2 years). So yeah, if you want the best, get the Ultra. If you wanna save some coin, get the Series 10 aluminium but put a screen protector on it if you do any outside sports.
@@The.JZA. I’ve already decided I’m keeping the ultra 2. I might still get the ultra 3 next year since I’m already a year behind (in tech, like cpu and stuff) and then rock the 3 until it’s end of life. Unless they go another year without the three or it’s just not worth it.
I just collected the AWU2 black this morning after placing an order the night before. It’s matte black color is so clutch and paired it with Nomad titanium black band, it looks like a ‘Batman’ watch 😂
So I was a mechanic in the army and we couldn’t wear normal rings. Then I got out of the army, and I became a civilian mechanic. I’ve wore a tear away wedding ring for most of my marriage. Haha.
Hey Dusan!! it's just a ring that I got my from my automotive days. When I was in the army, I was a diesel mechanic. So we couldn't wear rings. then I spent several years in the automotive field as a civilian and rings weren't allowed unless they were break away rings. Like rubber that could break away. I don't have a real ring! lol
I've had the OG ultra since launch, there's really been no reason to upgrade it. I probably won't unless apple finally releases blood pressure capability. If I were in your shoes I'd stick with the Ultra it will last you for many years.
@@wwjoshdew do you see yourself keeping both? the x for the dressier days and the ultra for the sporty or travel days aka u need more battery or more rugged ness or you like them both hahah I can't wait for the next video!! love from vancouver Canada :D
Got my ultra 2 back in march it has been fantastic you need to keep the ultra 2 it’s just far better that black is sweet!!!! The watch os 11 update was rough thank god they fixed it a few days ago now my ultra 2 battery life is back !!!!
the series 10 is the same as the nine and 8 your not missing out on much the ultra battery is enough to return the series 10. you basically destroyed your s5 doing work on your car and at work the ultra is the go s10 is more for dressy compared.
Things have changed dramatically since the s5. I mean, they have apps that tell you how far under water you are now. I guarantee the ultra would not have cared if oil got on it. Obviously I’ll choose to NOT wear my watch during my next oil change though.
It’s more of a psychological one because if Apple decided to release an Ultra 3 next year.. all of a sudden you’re feeling crappy. In which case having the series 10 would seem ideal. But the Ultra 2 is just sooo much better than series 10 in my opinion. Battery life, Home Screen, extra action button…
@@dexriasat4513 yeah, I made up my mind yesterday that he series 10 is going back. That said, I might still get the ultra 3 next year since it's already a year behind in tech (think features, cpu, battery tech, and more). And then rock 3 until it's end of life. Unless the three is a let down. We'll see.
@@wwjoshdew what made you decide on the Ultra 2 over series 10? - intrigued because I’m in the process of deciding between the two. TBH, if the Ultra 3 is anything like the upgrade from ultra 1 to 2. I’ll probably keep the Ultra 2. But I reckon there will be some kind AI integration into the Ultra 3. They may even change the whole design of it. In which case it’s a no brainer..
A very important question that could confirm my choice of this watch: if I wear my Oura Ring for sleep, can the data linked to the Health app be combined with the data I get from my Apple Watch Ultra? So that I don't have to wear the watch to sleep but it still takes my sleep data into account. Does anyone have the answer?
@@cooper1095 yeah. There was a spot that showed my phone number and order number. Had to fix that. It’s too easy to hack into someone’s account with all that info.
I'm still holding onto Series 4. This video told me what I think I need to hear. I'll definitely go for Ultra 2 Black. Your excitement pushes me real hard. lol
That’s crazy. You’re gonna be in heaven. It’s super nice skipping several revisions and being overwhelmed with new features and things “you’ve missed out on”. Thank you for the kind words.
You have a “barbaric”, clumsy way of grabbing and handling things, just look at how you ripped the charging cable from the case. The worst of the review, among the many I've seen.
I appreciate the feedback. To me I’m just excited and want the damn thing to come out. Like opening a Christmas wrapped gift. I ain’t taking my time. I just want it now. Lol
Your enthusiasm makes ME wanna buy an Ultra 2 too

Do it Just do it
@@wwjoshdewmine comes this week end. You trolling on another video brought me here. With your ‘I’m going to wait for the Ultra 4 comment lmao
lmao. It’s true though. If you wait, you’ll wait foreverv. Then it will instantly be obsolete. So just do it now!! lol
@@gOOnz901 I see what you did there
Fun fact ya don’t need the ultra to do the finger tap, just enable it in settings on a latest non ultra watch
@@spikethefoxdragon941 yeah, the series 10 has it! I showed that in my video.
funner fact. u don't need either. it's a accessibility feature for some of the older too (look it up before anybody says anything)

Can you please tell me what size you used for the Alpine Loop bracelet? M or L? Thanks

from the first apple watch to se to series 6 now just upgrade to the ultra 2. Ultra ftw never goin back to any other.

I love my ultra 2 watch also when i washed my hands it do a count down for me also it do a heart rate and BPM
Very nice.
I’m considering Hermes U2 or Black U2... do you find the S10 better in any way or so far all for U2?
@@Gekko858 nope. None at all right now. Definitely close to keeping the Ultra!
Use the action button for flashlight

Do you like the Dark green Alpine Loop band with this black AWU ?
Good Contrast
Torn between Dark Green Alpine Loop and Milaneese Loop Titanium
Where did you get the watch band josh
I selected it from Verizon when I placed my order. I got the small band.
Is the new black Apple Ultra paint prone to peeling?
Keep it!! I recently just upgraded as well from a Series 8 to the Ultra 2 it’s amazing

Did you keep both Apple Watches?
