Apple Watch Series 10 vs Ultra vs SE (Don't Waste $500)

[@ankurluthra1937]

I agree with most points. But I feel Series 10 is the best of the lot. Reasons - 1. Much cheaper than ultra 2 2. Has the latest chip S10 3. It sits so comfortably well down near to the wrist and it doesn’t bang into things during any sport or workout unlike ultra 2 which was so elevated that it used to bang so much into things (though more durable). You don’t want that durability with watch series 10. 4. Fast charging is game changer on Series 10. 5. More colour options available. 6. Best looking display and bezeless experience. 7. Voice isolation on series 10 works like a charm and it works best while taking calls on the cellular watch. I changed from ultra 1 to series 10 and do not regret at all… much better experience with series 10 in cheaper price. Jet black series 10 is seriously gorgeous to look at

[@TheFlexXMLG]

yup

[@subtraxxx]

Thanks for this info. But have a question, does the jet black series 10 scratch easily? How is it so far? I plan to buy one. Thanks

For a small vacation I went almost 4 days without needing to charge my Ultra 2, needed a quick topup of 10-ish percent to get me back home. This was without any battery-saving settings. Super impressive.

I’m still rocking the series 3 and happy with it.

[@loriguercio4374]

So do i but mine is getting too slow...

[@avakinlifeuser6888]

@@loriguercio4374 Ultra 2 is fantastic with the 64gb storage the huge screen and battery life and offline siri and 3000 nits. You can download hundreds of books and use the in built apple voices to read them. You can ready essays too it’s very useful you can also listen to books as audiobooks. You can download videos and have the watch on 3000 nits constantly playing music videos and the screen looks so good. You can have hundreds of long form videos like podcasts and also HD music videos that you can use like a Ipod and a screensaver. You can download mp3 too. The offline siri is very useful to have access to the hidden settings and quickly open apps without fumbling. The battery life is not a problem at all it charges so fast and lasts all day despite me keeping it locked on 3000 nits and playing music videos on it all day with my Airpods. Its very durable I dropped it when biking and also hit it against corners and its not messed up like other watches get. The flashlight torch is extremly useful I use it all the time at night almost everynight. I use the action button to quickly open the torch. So basicslly I use it like a mini Ipod for books, podcasts, music videos, mp3, and study material. I use the flash cards app to study on the go.

I just upgraded from series 7 to the Ultra 2. Loving the battery life right now. Also in the gym 5-6 days weekly as well as use sleep tracking, so not killing the battery has been really nice.

[@Lmao.Pachito]

The black or natural titanium? I have the natural with the oxygen sensor which gives me the most complete sleep tracking, while I have a jet black series 1o with no oxygen sensor but way more comfortable to sleep than the ultra 2, on a debate here lol

[@MBlue-sk4tr]

@ I have the natural titanium. Feel like the look and feel fits me personally better. Like I said, in the gym very regularly for strength training, and some cardio as well. Nice to have all of the vital aspects/monitoring. The series 10 is slimmer and probably more comfortable, and debatably more jewelry like. But, I like the natural titanium look/durability aspect, battery life, and overall athletic look to my watch. Feel like it fits me better personally. Also just started getting into rock climbing. Again, feel the Ultra appeals to that lifestyle better. But, to each their own!

[@Lmao.Pachito]

I'm a boat captain with a jetski watersports business, i snorkel, free dive and am in the water everyday. I also workout 5 days a week and use my phone, watch plus various apps to keep track of my progress/nutrition so its almost non-negotiable that i buy the ultra, i would go with the series 10 otherwise

[@lyromata]

I have a completely different take on these watches. I am non verbal - had my voice box removed so am looking at the fitness tracking and the SOS capabilities. The Ultra for me is brilliant. It is the only cellular watch that has a siren for attracting attention, SOS texts with GPS Location and long battery life. Ticks all my boxes.

[@bobcubsfan]

The 10 is my first watch. So far I like it a lot. Getting Siri to work by raising my wrist does not always work.

[@pacoag99]

I think it goes way easier on which to pick, whatever you like and can afford. For being a small product, they look so different. The only one I would buy would be the ultra series, but the price is so high that I think that its a better idea to wait for the ultra 3, since this is the 2nd year in the market for the ultra 2

Maybe you can do a special video on using the Apple watch 10 completely without owning an iPhone (as I do now already for 3 months) I only used someone iPhone to initial setup and downloaded the latest software as well a big area for offline maps.

[@Kment011]

The 40mm SE second generation is currently $189 while the series 10 42mm Is 350, is it really worth nearly twice the price? Given they both have the same battery life and they're very few actual differences feature wise, I don't think it is.

[@pointeplusplus]

I was ready to buy the ultra but when I went down to the Apple Store to try it on it was actually just massive compared to my wrist. Made me sad because I wouldn’t really like the battery life, but I don’t think I want something so big and clunky on one of my wrists =\. So I’m going to be getting the 10 - I don’t really see it as the awkward middle child but as the less rugged, smaller alternative that still has as many features as they can pack into its little body

[@jennb1152]

I was like “wow he really cares about women’s cycling 🚴” 😅

[@saturntwelve4121]

[@matthew-jordonwhynter645]

Siri sounds way smoother on the series 10. I wonder if that’s down to the s10 chip as well

[@69memnon69]

There isn't much of difference in price between the Ulra 2 and the Titanium series 10. Sure you can buy the cheaper aluminium version but it will be scratched to pieces in a month and it doesnt have cellular unless you pay extra. I prefer the aesthetic of the Ultra 2, better battery life, unique watch faces and action button (which I have setup to open my garage door). Dont waste your money on the black Ultra 2 if ruggedness is important to you.

[@PL4N7]

fake ultra 2s are gon be crazy with this (putting an ultra 2 casing arround the 10 would make it almost identical to the ultra)

[@jamesn7156]

The newer heart rate sensor on the 10 and Ultra are supposed to be more accurate with dark skin. If you’re fair skinned, you probably won’t notice a difference between all models, but may want to opt for the 10 if you have darker skin.

[@UnknownSource08]

[@salihylmaz6996]

The series 10 speakers are the worst (13:05) Thank you apple 🤬 the speakers of my already sold series series 6 ,were much louder. I am very frustrated I use Siri with the watch very often, which can be very useful for math tasks and so on. That's why I'm surprised that no one responds to this. The watch has become thinner and therefore the speakers have become 30% smaller, but the speakers feel 50% quieter. That's very annoying Greetings from Germany 🙋‍♂️

Is your Apple Watch 10 the Cellular model or the GPS Only model? The reason why I ask is I wanted to know if the Gray Ring on the Digital Crown is the new Cellular indicator vs the Red Ring on the Apple Watch 9.

I've spoken to the local Apple distributor here in my Country, but they said that was a decision made by KZbin and not an Apple one. That I don't really understand, as I also have a Samsung Watch with corresponding Watch, and here isn't any problems with KZbin showing pictures of the songs on the Watch-face. Could this be that Apple hates other Music providers so, that only their own "Music" can be shown??

I found that having the KZbin app in the Apple Watch is absolutely useless since they don’t allow us to download songs in the watch like Samsung watches so I’ve decided to delete the app on the watch and only use the now playing controls and I prefer that loads more.
