The one BIG reason to upgrade (for me anyways as I’m older) is the size of the screen. As you get older and your start to need reading glasses the size of the fonts become a big factor. No point getting a series 9 Apple Watch if you can’t read it . But a great reason for the Ultra 2 😊

Great video and commentary! I recently returned from a trip to the ocean where I took my AW Series 6 swimming and it fell off while I was jumping into the ocean from the boat. It fell 22' to the floor of the ocean where we were snorkeling and stayed there for more than 30m before being retrieved by one of the boat crew. It's amazing what they can withstand. Experiencing that took away one of the reasons I was looking at the AWU2, but this video really hit home why it was a good model to look at again.

Sleeping and cycling I prefer then Garmin Epix. I still use my ultra everyday at work though. Its a great durable watch and its nice to not have to have my phone with me all the time at the shop. Oh and backpacking, I predownloaded the map area I would be in, and used workoutdoors app, and it stopped tracking me not long after losing cell service, in some old growth forest. Same hike the Epix never lost track of me, and I didn't have to have extra apps or preload any maps.

I like the AWU2. But it’s missing a few key features for me. ANT+ is a big one for me since I ride indoors and need that power meter to pair with the iPad and my watch. Bluetooth only is a no go for now since it only allows the power meter to pair with the tablet or the Watch but not both at the same time. 2nd is the buttons. I need to be able to navigate the entire Watch with the buttons on occasion. 3. Is battery life. Garmin, Suunto , coros and polar prioritize battery life over much of everything else. That’s super important for me. 4. I own an iPad but not an iPhone. That’s definitely a no go for me.

When you are doing something important example jogging, lifting weights or on marathon you get the important call, text, Amazon package delivery etc the quick instant reply The certain s you can do on the watch can be lifesaver.

I’ve succumbed to the fact that there is no perfect smart/sport watch. Hence, I now circulate both my Ultra and my Epix Gen 2. Errands around town? Ultra…sometimes Epix. Round of golf? Epix. Don’t feel like charging? Epix. Lazy and don’t want to carry my phone? Ultra. Peloton ride? Either or. Outdoor run? Both…one for metrics, one for streaming music/audio books. Life is just easier now that I’ve accepted my fate… at least until Garmin gets LTE, or Apple gives me running suggestions and better metrics.

After switching from Garmin to Apple due to the resilience promised by the Apple Watch Ultra, I encountered a disappointing issue with the heart rate sensor malfunctioning just a few months post the expiration of its standard warranty. This problem is particularly concerning given the watch's marketing as a durable device for intensive outdoor activities. I had anticipated that the Apple Watch Ultra would offer unmatched reliability for my needs, and this experience has led me to reassess my expectations from Apple. I am now reaching out to Apple Support in hopes of finding a resolution to this issue, despite the warranty period having ended, expecting that the quality and customer service associated with Apple will provide a satisfactory resolution.

Garmin is the only GPS watch worth having nowadays. I got an Apple Watch Ultra 2 three months ago, after having all Garmin Fenix since the 5. After trying my best to like the AWU2, I sold it yesterday and got an Epix Pro 2 Sapphire. Once you have a flagship Garmin, it's impossible to forget it. Apple did a great job with smart features, mainly on the cellular connection. But they are decades behind Garmin regarding what to do with all the data collected. People used to say AWU2 is a smartwatch and Garmin is a sports watch, but I totally disagree. The way Apple deals with data is not smart AT ALL. So, if I don't have a Garmin, I prefer to use an analog watch than wear any other 'smartwatch' on the market.

@mlegrand 5 месяцев назад

Good feedback Bernardo. That Epix Pro is an awesome watch. I love having a flashlight built into my watch. It's absolutely fantastic. 👌

@deankahremanis3445 5 месяцев назад

I have experienced a very similar conclusion. After purchasing an AW Ultra 1 in 2022, upgrading to AW Ultra 2 in 2023, I just purchased a Garmin Epix Gen. 2 Pro 47mm, and love it! As a swimmer, I was frustrated with lack of ability to create custom workout displays to track swim laps, interval times, and other metrics while in the pool. The text size on the AW Ultra is too small for swimmers. In contrast, Garmin offers many custom workout views for swim and other workouts that Apple does not offer. Furthermore, I carry an iPhone everywhere, and find the AW Ultra apps duplicate almost all of my iPhone apps. The other issue with Apple is poor health metrics. Data is not analyzed by Apple, and dependent of app software developers. I have purchased hundreds of dollars in AW Ultra apps, and discovered that I still need to dig deep and interpret the data that I need. Garmin, on the other hand, provides very clear analysis of data and useful metrics, all baked into the Garmin Connect app.

Hi Matt, Firstly, happy 2024, and thanks for your videos. I am also a triathlete and I have the Apple Watch ultra 1. (also the Forerunner 955) and I have tried to give the AWU a try a lot of times, but I always end up going back to the Garmin. For training, I can't find a way for AWU to help me. My coach posts my workouts on TP and with Garmin I don't have to do anything, it automatically syncs what I have to do in the native app, and I'm ready to train! With AWU, there is no way. I have to juggle with 3rd party apps (follow a planned swimming workout, it's a nightmare). When Apple announced the integration with TP, I was very happy, but when it comes down to it, it's the most absurd integration I've ever seen. Honestly… Do you use the AWU for real training? Thank you,

@mlegrand 5 месяцев назад

100% honesty here in all my videos. I am almost always training with two watches on. It's frequently a Garmin of some sort that I'm testing and an AWU. I typically start both when swimming, biking or running. Then I'll compare data. I'm surprised the workouts aren't coming across to your AWU from Training Peaks. That stuff is brand new but I didn't have any issues doing workouts when I tested it. Still, I think it's really good for people to read other people's opinions on all of these watches. Thanks so much for posting this!

This watch does a lot more than calls and text. But at it's underlining core it's still an Apple Watch and does pretty mush the same things as an Apple Watch Series 9. This watch is more expensive because of it's design, materials and the extra durability of those materials.

Ok Eduardo, I have lots of thoughts. I think the AWU is probably the smartest bet for you. If you're training for a big running event or triathlon than the 965 is he better option but the AWU has a lot more smart features. And I think you'd miss some of those smart features if you left the AW ecosystem. 2-3 days of battery life is going to feel like a big improvement and you'll love the screen and materials of this watch. It's a really hard call but I think it comes down to what's most important for you. They're both great options.

Can you touch on the water resistant between the ultra 2 and 9series?

@mlegrand Месяц назад

The AWU 2 is designed for more extreme environments and has a water resistance rating of up to 100 meters. This makes it suitable for recreational scuba diving to depths of up to 40 meters and other high-velocity water sports like waterskiing and surfing. Additionally, the Ultra 2 is certified to the EN13319 standard, which is a diving accessory standard used by professional divers. The AWS9 has a water resistance rating of up to 50 meters under the ISO standard 22810:2010. This means it is appropriate for shallow-water activities such as swimming in a pool or ocean. However, it is not recommended for scuba diving, waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or deeper submersion.

@@mlegrand As an activity and health monitor, their functionality is excellent, heart rate, oxygen level, sleep biking, hiking, swimming, weight training, yoga and a ton of other regimens, all standard with the device. The battery life is excellent - my Versa 2 will last almost a week. You’re not going to find GPS on one, although they will Sync with your phone GPS and track your route - again, standard. The biggest downside is that I don’t find them particularly durable. I have not had one last more than a couple years, and usually far less. I am strongly thinking about replacing with an Apple Ultra 2 or Garmin watch. I go on hikes, by myself and often get concerned about trail direction, so having a map handy is very important to me. My iPhone is useless as the battery will not support a 4-6 hour hike or bike ride, and it often overheats in the sun (attached to my handlebars). If the phone sleeps, it pretty much loses signal. I go to national parks or reasonably remote places about 4 times/year, and I often ride my bike around town. I typically use AllTrails. I’d be happy if Garmin made a pocket trail map phone-like device with a good screen and long battery life, but I’m not sure such a thing exists.

It has a compass, barometer, altimeter, temperature, sunrise/sunset function, not to mention multiband 6 for auto syncing (or you can turn that off if you want) and most important Tough Solar. No need for chargers, no need for anything, and with 200m water resistance, this is a completely worry free watch.
