I got the series 5 silver stainless steel w link bracelet back in 2019. Still going strong today and always get compliments on it

I enjoy the Ultra Watch, and I don’t do all the crazy adventure stuff.

@benhammerhead376 4 месяца назад

I love my Apple Watch Ultra and I do all the adventurous things Apple Watch Ultra owners do or what Ultra is meant to do; but I have no problem wearing my Ultra with my Suit which I do wear with my Ultra. I like the screen size when i'm running maps during hikes, working out.I love how I dont have to worry about scratching or dinging my watch up when im out there.

@TeeMann-pi2cy 2 месяца назад

I've gotten both watches! that way i can just use ultra for basic casual wear and then go to the 9 stainless steel for that sleek, snazzy look!

@KajanUSB 4 месяца назад

Absolutely you are right, I’m sick of this ultra 2 big and uncomfortable , feels like I’m hanging on brick.

@drunkaviator81 2 месяца назад

Thanks for this video. I'm also a guy who loves the 41mm SS Apple Watch, and I always keep my older one kicking around, for when I need extra battery, or I'm doing a rough activity. It dawned on me, that the Ultra doesn't really provide me with anything new, I don't need dual-band GPS, or a bigger screen, or the action button (since watch OS10 allows quick access to widgets). I simply wanted it because it was new, and the tradeoffs in size and weight aren't worth it over a quick 10 min charge when you need extra juice!

@curtott3396 6 месяцев назад

You make a lot of good points, hopefully Apple is listening, I've heard others mention a lot of the thing's you did. A smaller Ultra I would think is coming, or maybe the apple watch 10 will have a similar body of the ultra without the action button, good video.

@Love_Sharma_ 6 месяцев назад

I would seriously love mini Ultra… i would def buy it… apple should def release 41 and 45 version of it

@FaizAly 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! Smaller Ultra or series 10 w/Ultra-like body would be a game changer

@WhatIThink45 2 месяца назад

Very much agree. I’ve had the Ultra for over year, and I’m thinking about trading it in for the black Series 9. I hate that I spent $800 for the Ultra.

@ck8681 6 месяцев назад

Just upgraded from series4 stainless steel to ultra2. Have been used it for 7 months. I feel it very heavy and don’t like its design. I am planning to back to use some old stainless steel model before series 10 release

@graffmixer 6 месяцев назад

I've been a fan of big watches so I went for the Ultra 2 and ditched my Series 7. Depending on the band, the Ultra looks good in any business attire. My only minimal gripe I have about Ultra 2 is that it didn't come in a graphite color. I'm thinking maybe the future Ultra 3 might have that color option and it it does, I'll buy it and buy the stainless steel graphite watch band separately. Other than that I love everything about especially the battery life.

@Fr4nkSanchez 2 месяца назад

but with yellow gold ring is not good

@BC08 8 дней назад

IMO, the AW Ultra is suitable for business casual and/or suit/tie the same way a Rolex Submariner or Omeaga Seamaster is (depending on the band). All 3 are tool watches that look premium enough to get away with it, and all are within a few mm of each other in overall thickness.

@mitchellbarnow1709 6 месяцев назад

We both have the Apple Watch Ultra and we love the light feel of the titanium body. We used to wear the aluminum small body Apple Watch because it was affordable. The stainless steel models were much heavier, but much more durable and they had a very hard watch face. The aluminum body's Ion glass would scratch easily. I love the style of the Ultra Watch and its protected crown. I have never met you, but it seems to me that the Ultra would be way too big for you, but the sleek stainless bodied watches fit you much better and would now be able to fit your watch under a buttoned cuff of a long sleeved shirt. I cannot imagine wearing the Ultra on a dressy night out, if those still exist!

@FaizAly 6 месяцев назад

I agree it has a lot to do with personal preference. I really do like the overall square design of the Ultra and the protected crown. I wish Apple made a stainless steel/Ultra hybrid. It would look amazing

Thanks for the video - I'm trying to decide if I want to go Ultra or not. My wrist is wide enough that the Ultra won't cover it and I like the look, but wow you made that stainless steel look good, especially with that band.

@Dr_JoroPeate 5 месяцев назад

Only thing I find annoying about the curved screens is screen protectors... I have gone through about 6 cracked glass protectors (which are a pain to apply) and ended up getting so sick of the glass that I am using the film protectors now, I need to replace the film maybe every 3 months or so because they always end up bubbling or peeling eventually. This is enough to make me want to switch to the flat screen of the ultra. I despise curved screens now despite how elegant they look. Same issue with the older Samsung ultra phones and why I switched to iPhones for the flat screens.

@PSy84 Месяц назад

you wont need screen protector if you have stainless steel apple watch as it has sapphire glass. Only the aluminium apple watch models are very fragile to scratches and cracks
