    Are you going to buy an Apple Watch Ultra 2? If so, why?

    • @janeS9773
      @janeS9773 Рік тому

      Yes I did, and because of the screen brightness. My first ultra didn't seem bright enough. And side by side comparison in the bright sun there was no comparison. So I went with the new one. Great video.

    My husband and I have AWU1s and love them. The battery life is insane and the quick charge is super speedy, as expected. We pass down “last year’s models” to our kids and they pass them down to their younger siblings. We end up getting a crappy trade in from the youngest kid’s but everyone has a decent watch. Not sure that the AWU2 is enough for me to do the trade down thing though.

    I am getting minimum of 48 hours right now with the middle brightness setting on the ultra 2. And a UA-camr did a test of all watches and even when the brightness is all the way up on all watches the ultra 2 got 7 hours more battery than the ultra 1. It would make no sense to have a new SIP and not get better battery life.

    I upgraded from Series 4 to the AWU2. Did I really need the AWU2 vs. the 1...probably not. However, I figured the couple hundred dollars spent on the 2 buys me a couple more years of updates. I kept my last watch for 5 years so assuming I get that same lifespan on this one (or more) I'll be happy with that.

    as an ultrarunner who wears two watches, upgrading to AWU2 would only be worth it if there was longer battery life. It still can't compete with coros or garmin (enduro or epix pro for example). At this point it remains a device i wear for running to communicate with my family. Thank you for your balanced reviews.

When I have looked online I have found others that have reported this is issue.
    Has anyone else had this issue with the Ultra when using it as stand alone and does anyone know if the new Ultra has this issue or does it connect straight away out and about and keeps its cell connection?

    Bought the Ultra 2. Loving it. I think always the real question is do you buy the first version or the refined second version. I bought the SS 8. I loved it but the Ultra 2 has brought me to a new level. Dictation is remarkable. SS8 was not that good. I am using watch for more iMessages than before. The next is the two finger gesture. I have been waiting to get rid of a trigger for selfies forever. How many times I have forgotten my trigger. In regards to different titanium colours. Seeing so many upset people with 15 pros complain of brutal scratches. Apple can only lay down a coating. Coating on SS is better. Coatings will scratch. Unfortunately titanium will look worse than SS when scratched because it seems to be softer. Keep with your ULTRA 1. It is a good watch but Ultra 2 is refined. I like refined!

      Me too! I don’t type on messages, dictation is so good. I traded my U1 for the U2, got $411 for the U1! That took the sting out of upgrading. I don’t know about you but I plan on the U2 to be my long term watch. Just a suggestion but a clear PC bumper case and screen protector will keep your U2 looking new. Both are inexpensive and worth doing.

    I agree that Ultra 1 is almost the same as Ultra 2 and the differences are not significant for most of us. So I am in the market for an Ultra 1. Curiously, can’t find anyone for less than the USD $799 that the Ultra 2 cost. Curiously again, the Ultra 2 doesn’t have anywhere an “Ultra 2” label. Just said Apple Ultra at the back of the watch. No store is offering an Ultra 1 at a discount. I would said that the Ultra 1 is already a 9 chip inside and the couple of upgrades are software updates (brightness and double tap). Another brilliant Apple business move.
    What do you think Mark ?

    I had the Apple Watch series 6 so went for the Ultra 2 (just to get the newest version with the better chip and brighter screen). Like you I would have loved if they did a dark titanium finish so it looked different. I don't have anything to compare it to but I have seen on some other reviews dong exhaustive testing of battery life that the Ultra 2 is a little bit better than the 1. Clearly not enough though for Apple to advertise it. Only just got it and haven't tested it with more tasks (gym etc) but I am getting way past 2 days (close to 3 days) using during the day at work and doing sleep tracking at night. Interested to see how it holds up when monitoring exercise and playing music at the same time as well. Keep up the videos always love them - from a Brit (living in Australia for the last 15 years).

    Mark, as always I enjoy your reviews and you are spot on concerning the U2. Nonetheless, I upgraded my U1 to the U2 for the following reasons. The main reason I decided to upgrade is in fact the SiP9. While I agree it’s not 'faster' by a lot, there are something’s it is but not THAT much faster. However, the SiP9 has 64 GB of storage vice 32GB on the SiP6/7/8! That gives plenty of space for as much music as I want with room for other things. When I bought the U1 it was intended to be the Watch I keep. The improved SiP and improved display on the U2, in my mind, was worth the upgrade as I look to keeping the U2 for the long haul. Down the road, the U1/2 make upgrading the battery easier than the regular AWs. Since Apple doesn’t upgrade the SiP in meaningful ways very often ( about 3 years it seems) then the U2 should be the keeper I was looking for. The durability of the Ultra series makes that really possible. I would also add that a clear PC bumper is a way to protect the Ultra without adding bulk. At $9, it’s also a cheap investment. Using it on my U1 allowed me to get $411 trade in from Apple when I was quoted $380!! That lowered my out of pocket expense to $435 for the upgrade. Not to mention I'm still receiving the $200 rebate on my U1! So, I agree, the U2 is an incremental upgrade but still, it’s an upgrade for those who want the best for the long haul. I will not be upgrading from here on out. The X is going to change how watch bands connect to the AW. I like my current watch bands. I’m done. Apple can move on without me.

    Apple Watch ultra 2 is for customer who are in old version of Apple Watch, certainly not for those who have already give 1000$ to Apple for their ultra 1

    I purchased a ultra 2 for £749 from amazon yesterday. OK, it had a navy blue ocean band buy hey. I think buying the ultra 2 for personal use will have a much longer life than ultra’s 4 year old chip

      I mean taking in consideration that there are people still using their series 3s i don’t think life span is in the question in regards to the 2 latest watches they’ve dropped, congrats btw

    The 72 hours in low power mode is misleading. Apple changed the testing parameters for the AWU 2. The AWU 1 and 2 have the exact same battery life.

    I would have upgraded just for the black watch had Apple made it. Maybe next year!

    I’ve compared my AWU1 to the AWU2 in store. The poster of this video is incorrect. There is a massive speed boost between watches. It’s very noticeable. Not enough to get me to spend my money, but enough to get excited for next year.

    The ultra 1 is also around £650 from Costco. Great video as always.

      In certain scenarios, yes. It's a bit much for others, though.

    For me I think the Ultra will be too big. My plan is to get the 9 as it has the same brightness as the Ultra 1 and will be just a mm bigger than my 44 mm series 6. Thanks for the great review and the beautiful hike!

    Very good story telling as usual. I suspect the non black version has played out with the scratching on iPhone 15 pro concerns, especially as an action watch …

    @jedlomax100 Рік тому

    No. I find it telling they discontinued the first one after a year! Even with a lifespan of say...5 it's a vast sum to spend on a watch that won't be useable by then. Get a cheap fitness tracker and spend the rest on a real watch that will last a lot longer. And also look so much better.
