4:02 for people struggling with this protruding part - it shouldn't be the case at all! the loop should just be connected in a different way so that this part is just on the back side of your wrist when you put your hand on a desk (that is, this small loop should be facing the other direction, not left but right when you raise your hand like in the video 4:02); it causes zero inconvenience for me that way!

@pancmincuk Год назад

You can remedy the tab issue with the Trail Loop by installing the band the other direction. Installing it this direction will put the loop under your wrist rater than on top keeping to more secure and gives you a cleaner look off the band on your wrist.

@bjorneriksson1276 Год назад

I bought a black Ocean loop and also an Alpine loop with my Ultra watch. The black silicone Ocean band looked great but after wearing it for a few weeks it felt like a relief to swap it with the Alpine loop. The Alpine loop is a much gentler feel upon your wrist, especially when worn over long hours for sleep monitoring, when the Ocean band leaves me with deep pattern imprints around my wrist--a problem I've never had with either steel or leather bands on vintage collectable timepieces. Will have to try the Trail loop after seeing your neat presentation :-)

@ravipro Год назад

Great video and cleared many doubts. I have 170mm wrist and went for M/L black/grey trial loop. I think the black/grey complements the titanium body of the watch nicely. Agree with the pull tab which can get caught but guess may not for normal daily wear.

I have all three straps 1. Alpine loop which is comfortable and don’t leave mark on hand after removing it but removing it is bit hectic and if I remove it quickly than hook dash on display. It also became wet after gym due to sweating and take bit time to dry. 2. Ocean band loop is great for rainy season, for water activities, for gym and for other activities but it leaves the mark on hand and also bit irritative. And positive side is that it quickly get out of the hand. 3. Trail loop is great non irritative and don’t leave mark too on hand. And easy to remove too. But doesn’t feel much secure as it has velcro strap. And also it takes time to dry if it became wet.

@jmp622 Год назад

The white trail and loop get real dirty, the orange loop gets dirty also. Not recommended for daily use unless you like cleaning once a week, The trail is most comfortable overall especially sleeping. The Ocean band is best for activities involving water or working outdoors. Trail loop is light and overall pretty good but if you are constantly needing to adjust it is bit of a pain. Get green loop as does not show dirt right away.

@albertol1529 11 месяцев назад

I have the orange alpine loop. There are two things I don’t like: 1) it gets dirty quickly and is hard to clean and 2) it can be itchy on yiyr skin. To clean it, I normally put it in the washing machine in a delicates’ bag (to protect other items in the machine). Even still, using a n expensive Meile machine with AutoDos, it still comes out grubby looking. It’s not so much an issue since I only use my AWU for sport as I won’t have an AWU anywhere round my work conversations. I use a Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar as my everyday since it doesn’t have a spycrophone, sorry Microphone, but still notifies me of emails, etc. It also rarely needs charging and is indistinguishable from a “real” watch as it has physical hands and dial.

@Ariozo111 Год назад

Very comfy ones both of them, did go for orange alp loop. But like one week and it´s not looking so great so not made for 24/7 and hard use for sure. :) But from the standard "Ultra" straps the Orange alp. is for sure the one that looks best, and fit the orange details on the watch. :)

@thomasjanssen9124 Год назад

Thanks for the review! Unfortunately our local Apple Store only had the Alpine and Ocean Loop available for testing. I tend to the Trail Loop - even if it seems to be a bit like the sports loop - but I‘ll have to see and try it in person. If the trail loop is wider and more comfortable, this may be a reason to go with it (…and sell my two sport loops ;-) )

@johnnyng692 Год назад

Actually I decided to buy the apple trail loop in black/grey color and s/m length. I think the m/l was a bit too long. I have a similar size wrist as yours, and the end of the trail loop is right in the middle of my wrist. I've been using it for a week and it doesn't get caught and opened. It's is comfortable to wear, but I like the sophisticated style of the alpine loop. Like them both and will switch between them from time to time.

Just a comment on the sizing. Don't size it by just comparing your wrist size to the specified length on the website. What I found for me was, the S/M would had been fine for my wrist.

I am eagerly awaiting my Apple Watch Ultra with the medium orange Alpine Loop band.

@Tech4Baba Год назад

Thanks for watching, Craig! When is the ETA? Let me know how you like it when you get it. Even though I'm so far from extreme sports/adventure, I'm enjoying mine so far.

@craig8692 Год назад

@@Tech4Baba ETA is 26 Oct-01 Nov. My brother works for Apple and kindly got me a 25% discount. This swayed me to buy the Ultra even though I have a Series 7, which my nephew will benefit from.

@Tech4Baba Год назад

That's a great deal! Nice bother and nice uncle, too! :-)

@anthonycraig274 Год назад

I think both the alpine and trail loop is a step backwards. Titanium hooks are an extra complication thats not needed. I think the solo and braided loop are the best straps apple has ever made. When I get the Ultra, that is what I will be using. I might get the oceans loop if anything as I do a lot of outdoor extreme water sports.

@Tech4Baba Год назад

@star1child109 Год назад

@@Tech4Baba it’s a good smart watch for what it is. Having twice the brightness, twice the battery life, twice the GPS accuracy (dual band) and premium materials with its Titanium case, made this an absolute no-brainer compared to the standard Series 8. Of course there are other smart watches out there where the battery lasts several days or even over a week or two (Garmin) in which the Apple Watch Ultra will hit only 2 or 3 days; but these other long life battery watches don’t have cellular phoning and don’t do half as much as the Apple Watch Ultra. The real genuine ‘milestone’ Apple Watch and iPhone that we’re all waiting for (even if we don’t know it yet), is when they incorporate “solid state” rechargeable batteries with many times the capacity and battery lifespan and microLED displays (not mini LED which is completely different) which eliminate screen-burn legacy and have a superior display quality.

@Tech4Baba Год назад

Great analysis, Star1 child! Can't agree more. Looking forward to the day Apple watch can last for days/weeks!
