- I used an Apple Watch ULTRA as a replacement to my iPhone. I documented the experience and filmed this video to show the pros and cons of using an Apple Watch ultra as your sole device.

I go Ultra-only every Saturday/Sunday. I find it makes me more present with my kids and family. My wife DJs in the car from her phone.
Great idea 👍🏻
Exactly. Being more present is the thing when leaving the phone behind. Once my phone stopped working and I had to wait for my next salary to buy a new one. So I used an old nokia with only radio, for almost a month. And yes, I felt like a lot more present in my own life. When I needed something I opened my laptop, but I did not waste (sometimes) hours watching youtube shorts, instagram or reading news I dont care about and all this unnecessary BS. I believe that today a smartwatch can do everything that most people actually need, like, music, maps, calls, messages. (I am personally only missing the camera.)
So at the moment I am considering buying an apple watch and leave my phone in a drawer.
I just picked up the apple watch ultra 2 earlier today and is my first ultra watch ever and so far it’s been really cool
2:21 be warned my HomePod got set off! 🤣
Ultimate challenge! I want to try this for a week, but I’m scared haha
What’s gets me is making the videos and wearing two watches. Especially to sleep. HMU if you comen out to L.A lets do a collab bro.
It would be an explosive video, Shervin! Start to shut down your iphone😎
I’m scared to do it for a day lol
@@Aesthetic_Al haha i wear like 5 devices to sleep... call me crazy. down!! i'll DM you on IG
Go for it please. I love your videos
I just picked up the Ultra 2 with the same purpose, not having to carry my phone. It’s the best smart watch out there but it’s not a sports watch yet. My 5 year old Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire still beats out the Ultra for sports, sleep tracking and battery life.
wtf, I thought this dude was going to have 2-3 mil subs. Keep up the fantastic work!
You can change the orientation of the Watch in settings and wear it so the crown is opposite your hand so you don’t accidentally hit the button while running with gloves.
thanks Chris. I would have had it on my other hand but I had My Garmin on. It wasn't a big deal. Im on holiday so its a first time im wearing gloves lol thanks for the suggestion
@@Aesthetic_Al you can use the same hand lol. Just flip it upside down and change the orientation settings
I Wear the Ultra 2 for work (farming) i always Hit the crown. I turned it so im activating always the action Button.
Great video, definitely excited to get my new watch this year.
You going for the New Apple Watch Ultra 2?
@@Aesthetic_Al Yes, I caved and ended up pre-ordering the Ultra 2 as a replacement for existing AW6. It seems best suited for my lifestyle and fitness goals. Thanks again for the great video my brother 💪🏽🤠
I keep my ultra in theater mode with the notifications turned on. I’m getting at least 3 days if not 4 out of it. Just tap the screen, rotate the crown or push the crown to turn the screen on to do what you need to do and it’s will turn off in a few seconds or you can cover the ultra with your palm to turn the screen back off. Always on screen looks cool but it’s not practical.
I only use always on display if i'm going out and want people to see my cool watch.
" let me show you how responsive siri is"... proceeds to cut the video
good review.. i too am working to see how to use my ultra2 watch more than the phone. I do miss the camera even though I have a watch camera, it doe NOT compare to the picture qualilty I get when using my iPhone. All The Best!
I think the Apple Watch ultra looks absolutely stunning can’t wait to start wearing it
Can you talk on watch for phone calls instead of ear buds?
That Apple Watch charger is nice
Its one of my go to accessories when i travel. I attached a link in the description
Im getting the Apple Watch Ultra 49mm Titanium Case GPS + Cellular Trail Loop (Blue/Grey)[S/M] in a few weeks
Great video! Thanks for making this!
Thanks George for the message!
It doesn’t work I had Verizon try to fix it over 1 hour, phone was off, no texts could be received, calls it’s doesn’t work, you have to have your phone on, not with you but on
I also intend to do like this in 2-3 years time by having the Apple Watch in Cellular as my phone call, msg and AirPods! Cutting the focusing on my iPhone in public! At home then I on my wifi with my iPad ya! 🤔⌚️
Your house is really nice. I forgot that the watch doesn't have safari also, would be nice if it did. Apple views the Apple watch as an iPhone accessory and they have definitely held back on the processor and some things that are needed to make this stand alone to ensure you have an iPhone to do the proecssing.
Thank you! I forgot how big CarPlay was a part of my life. I was driving listening to FM radio lol
You can buy a watch band with dual cameras that will work with the ultra for FaceTime and taking pictures. $299.
thanks for this! I just ordered one lol. Going to give you a shout on my next video thanks for this
Do I have to enable the cellular feature on the ultra? I know, "why get the ultra then?" I want to be able to use it later. But for now, since I don't want additional monthly fees on my cellular, plan, I want to be able to still use it sync'd to my phone without using cellular. I am guessing I can use it without cellular, just wanted to make sure. Thanks.
yeah bro you good. When buying the Ultra you don't have you add cellular. On most (if not all carrier) you can add it remove it anytime you want. Here in the U.S I think most charge $10 a month for that
Great challenge...thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching, Give it a shot maybe
you kept triggering my siri. good video, edit that part some so my devices aren’t going crazy, please!!!
Thanks for letting me know. Next time I wont use those magic words lol
I think the watch was probably designed anticipating be worn on the left hand. I believe that would solve your issue with your wrist hitting the crown and power button. Great video though!
Nah the buttons always are closest to the wrist on either hand, because as lefties, the watch lets us reverse the orientation and wear it upside down so the crown can be operated with our left hand where it won't go over the watch.
How do you make apple watch work with airpod without phone connect
Two thoughts: 1) If he didn’t like how his glo😊ve was continually being hit when wearing them, why not reverse the watch’s orientation so that he actually wears the watch with the crown and side button are on the left side of watch as he views the watch face. I have done this since Day One. It really saves a lot of frustration.
Number Two Thought-Beginning with the latest WatchOS, you no longer have to say ‘Hey, Siri….’ Simply raise your arm while wearing your Apple Watch and talk to Siri. The second you do, the little Siri rotating globe or whatever it’s called will appear on your watch’s face. 😊
Thank you sir❤
4:45 the ultra watch with some type of AI OS like the rabbit would be perfect.
What about the dichotomy between Garmin Fenix 7 and Apple Watch Ultra? If you have to choose ONLY one, which one?
That's next weeks video haha im not even joking. Filming it this weekend will be up next week.
I bought my this week in August 15th Monday but i received it on Tuesday 16th August and then i did applecare+ insured it the 17th August
Congrats bro. You didn't want to wait to see what the Apple Watch Ultra 2 will have next month? I'm curious if we going to see any major upgrades
@@Aesthetic_Al same here can’t wait but not likely most of the time they repeat the Apple products
@@Aesthetic_Al thanks
Great video
Thank you!!!
No problem 🤷♂️😉
I have the apple watch ultra, the cellular doesn’t work if I don’t have my phone close for some reason. I checked with the holder they said everything is good on their part and my plan is good. On the apple watch it self LTE is connected and everything is fine. It’s just when I move my phone away the watch doesn’t ring. Can anyone tell me why and how to fix it?
Curious not sure if your in the states or not, but you are paying on your plan for "a stand alone device" where the device is assigned a phone number?
Iphone 15 mini com dynamic island e entrada usb-c seria perfeito
My keyboard freezes on my Ultra Watch when I’m texting. It’s my first Apple Watch so idk if I did something wrong, but yeah that’s the only thing that happened so far.
that's concerning. I would try doing the standard troubleshoot. Close all the apps, see if it improves.
Turn off watch turn back on. If doesn't improve.
back up your watch and reset it.
In the end of the video I think I mention how responsive "Everything is" Siri, the keyboard, the apps in the App Store. Its minimal lag just as quick as my iPhone 14.
Good luck hope this helps
@@Aesthetic_Al Another question… I found out my watch kept my phone in Driving Focus while I was at work for over 3 hours. Like just randomly turned it on and got no notifications pushed to me. Was weird as balls! Is that normal?
One of the best products of Apple but as always overpriced in Europe.
It's overpriced even in USA so i iamgine in europe lol.$800 for a damn smart watch is freaking expensive
@@Joker-yu5kp in Europe it costs 999€. In some countries even 1099€.
@Your punishment that’s beyond crazy
@@Nogitsune_Yako On Amazon Germany you can get it for 899 euros now but still only with some bands.
@@occultsymbols it’s 942.99 at the moment. Dunno what are u talking about.
Should have rotated the crown when you were wearing the gloves.
Good point! I had it rotated a few weeks ago but I switched because this felt a bit more natural. I wish they could add a safety feature like when you do a water activity so the screen or select buttons can be disabled. My opinion at least
@@Aesthetic_Al yeah I’m still getting use to the crown being on the opposite side of my wrist.
also: make sure your watch isn’t too high on your wrist, it should be behind that bone that kinda protrudes. i don’t have any issues with accidental pressing while working out simply by sliding the watch back a lil
As long as it still needs an iphone (even if not around) it's useless to me. If they ever make the apple watch truly standalone I'll ditch my Iphone 13 mini and make the watch my primary device.
Same
No CarPlay but I am able to Bluetooth pair the audio on ultra to Honda crv 2021
That's on another level!! Thanks for sharing that Ricky. I should've tried that but I guess it didn't cross my mind since I wasn't driving my personal vehicle I was out of state visiting my parents so I was going back and forth using theirs.
I have one and watching this didn't make too comfortable about getting celular on mine, that battery kinda cheeks
I hope I didn't discourage you. I really drained the battery I mean my AirPods were connected via bluetooth a lot. Plus all those runs, making calls and texting on it. Using Siri. The fact that's its only their 1st generation Ultra. Imagine where it will be in 10 years. Great competition for Garmin
Can i stream music from Apple Music with having the phone?
With cellular it will drain very fast
In Australia, the Apple Watch ultra $1300
Ultra PRICE TAG!!!
After applying the exchange rate the price is pretty close to U.S. $799
You regularly wear both AWU and Garmin?
Not really. I prefer my Garmin but on a long run 10+ miles ill take my Apple Watch for the cellular features. Im traveling right now so I am using my Apple Watch a bit more because of the cellular convenience
Low hangers?
Ok. Without cellphone. But, tell me: what did you use to record this vídeo? A cam ? Rsrs
I used my Sony A7s III
Notice how he didn't tell us he didn't turn off the wifi while indoors.
is it better than Apple Watch 7?
then the 7. Yeah much more improved in features and battery life.
why didnt you charge it to 100% first?
He may be one of those fucktards who “preserve” battery health on their devices.
I hope he’s not though
I was about to miss my flight lol and i went to lift in the morning with it on
Did you know that you don’t have to say “hey Siri”? Just raise the watch to your mouth and speak.
Lame
nice bro
🙏 thanks
Google maps is 100% better then Apple Maps Apple maps is not accurate & chooses the longest less direct route but Google maps is more direct & more accurate as I found out recently
Yup totally agree. If I remember correctly when filming this Apple Maps was working smoother without the phone tho. Using it natively on the apple watch alone.
Para utilizar el lte en apple watch debe estar el iPhone encendido?
No
todo el tiempo mi iPhone 14 pro estaba apagado y recibía mis mensajes y notificaciones.
There is a browser safari, ask siri to open it
Really???
Apple watch ultra shuts down automatically after swimming! I bought two apple watches, both disclosured "dark screen" then power off. Do not buy Apple watch ultra!
Lol, I thought that I was one of the only ppl that use google maps instead of Apple maps
Apple Maps is to risky.😆 I trust google way more lol
legit only use apple maps if i’m using my ultra 😂
Man pero por que un reloj los hace correr ? Si fuera para escuchar música si te la creo ,mira mi cellular está lleno de fotos y juegos y si el reloj fuera usado para almacenar mi canciones ustedes que no juegan se la pasan con jaladas en la calle !
4 days aint a week
Going to have to make the stakes higher next time!
So big so expensive so short battery life👎
That big bulky thing looks ridiculous on you.
Gift me this watch 😊
Ridiculous .
I didn’t like the video
anything you'd like to see next?
Too bad this Apple watch will not work with Android phones.
No está nada mal tú morra, carnal 😅
Fack aple wach hahaahaha
