      I disagree and think that the comparison (leaving series 8 and 9 completely out) was useless and took over the Apple advertisement strategy to compare their new products to those from many years ago instead of the most recent ones. They do this on purpose because the differences over the last years have been super minor. But to see this strategy also from a UA-camr is shocking.

      My biggest disappointment was the discrepancy between Ultra and Series. I really want the Sleep Apnea feature. It's the number one most interesting feature for me personally in ages. But I already have the Ultra 1, which for whatever reason, won't get the Sleep Apnea feature. Getting the Series 10 is a massive downgrade when it comes to battery life, and getting the Ultra 2 at this point knowing it does not feature the improved neural engine, when Apple is all about Apple Intelligence and neural engine moving forward, feels awkward.
      I've ordered the Series 10 in Titanium; I'm going to give it a good spin. But I'm 90% certain the battery is going to get annoying really fast after getting accustomed to the battery life of my Ultra 1. Getting the Ultra 2 is just out-of-the-question as it didn't get the S10 SiP like the Series 10.

    I’m in the group of moving from an Ultra to a 46mm Series 10. Originally picked the Ultra 2yrs ago for screen size and partly battery life but have never liked the chunky design and with the Series 10 faster charging, that helps with the lower battery life.

      @@anthonynusbaum56 91% isn't poor by any means. Ultra 1 with 91% battery health should still be far superior compared to Series 10 at 100% battery health. We don't know the battery capacity of the Series 10 just yet, but judging by how Series 9 (45mm) had 308 mAh, and the Series 10 is even thinner, its most likely not getting any bigger. The battery capacity of Ultra 1 is 542 mAh. Thats almost twice the capacity.
      Your Ultra 1 battery health needs to drop closer to 60-70% before its start resembling the Series 10.
      Of course, it's not as simple as comparing battery capacity directly. The S10 SiP is more power efficient compared to the S8 SiP in the Ultra 1 etc. But still.

    I really like the new shape of the Series 10. Yea I know, it's subtle to most, but it's completely obvious to me. It's wider, less rectangular, and more circular now with even bigger corner radius'. it genuinely has more of a circular watch vibe to me now. People might call it a minor design tweak, but honestly this is the biggest change to the shape and geometry of the Apple Watch in its history IMO. Tied with Series 4.

    While I was hoping for a much bigger upgrade, I’m trading in my Ultra 1 just because of the sleekness and thinness of the Series 10. I loved the battery life of the Ultra 1 but its bulkiness never justified my simple lifestyle.

      I find is strange for Apple to proclaim this is as a huge design upgrade. Overselling it way too much. It's a nice change and improvement, but this is still the exact same design as always, with slight iteration and some fat removed. Why pretend like it's something that it's clearly not?

      ​@@vahagy6579 You don't get "both" in terms of Sleep Apnea tracking, doesn't matter if your watch has blood oxygen tracking, it won't be used for sleep apnea tracking, which is really annoying. It's so annoying how my Ultra 1 with Blood Oxygen and accelerometer can't do sleep apnea tracking, while Ultra 2 without Blood Oxygen tracking can. I don't belive for one second that the change from S8 SiP to S9 SiP is that important for this to work.
      And there is no doubt blood oxygen would be a beneficial metric to use for sleep apnea tracking. For Apple to simply avoid using it as their newest models ship without blood oxygen monitoring due to a patent dispute is a spit in the face to existing customers.

      When you think about it, what are you really wanting them to add or change about the Ultra? That watch is meant to be a bit bulkier. The only thing they can do is make the battery longer, but no one is really complaining about that. Faster chip? Who’s saying it’s slow?

Ultra 2 didn't bring anything fancy over Ultra 1 to begin with and is already 1 year old so I'm not going to get an Ultra 2 at this point.
