The Ultra 2 is surprisingly light on the wrist and the charge lasts for days. it is awesome. EDIT 2: Couple months into it. Love everything about the watch. I don't think I could ever go back to something else. This thing is always on my wrist and I've gotten a bunch of compliments for it.

Battery life really is the thing they need to work on with all these watches. I sprung for one for my now teen (they were about 11 when I got one for them to walk the 3 blocks to school up the road allowing me having peace of mind in case they ever had an emergency while also giving them independence). The battery would die way before the day was over every time - and this was with my kid hardly using it for more than looking at the time 😢..

If you've had your Series 5 for awhile, it could also be that your battery capacity has decreased. There are services for getting your battery replaced...but then you don't get all the nice upgrades of getting a new watch. I've had a black Series 5 (44mm) for 4 years. I enjoy it, but just pulled the trigger on a Ultra 2 (included some birthday money). I'm thinking I'll keep the Series 5 powered off unless I want it for certain dress occasions compared to a larger titanium watch (also getting a 3rd party metal link band).

I am not used to it being always on because I come from a 6, so I hope the batterylife is going to be better than expected.

It's not even expensive if you're going to use it as a diving computer, a good diving computer with Bluetooth connectivity costs almost as much as this watch.

I stopped with the smart watches all together and was using a Citizen eco titanium which works very well. My wife wanted something with gps for me to wear when I’m in the wilderness so I don’t get lost so here we are. I have almost a 10” wrist and it’s easier to just upgrade a traditional watch band. I saw this and figured I’d try it on at the store. It fit, albeit on the last little notch so I got it. Plus the battery is kinda nice to have. We will see if it survives the week.

After 5 years, my Series 4 battery still gets me through the day just fine. I will try to get another year out of it and wait for the Series 10 or Ultra 3, which will hopefully be a big update or redesign.

The Ultra 2 is $50 more than the 45mm Stainless Steel Series 9 with cellular. It just doesn’t seem fair to compare the smaller least capable with the Aluminum case Series 9 to the largest and most capable watch. I switched last year from a $750 Stainless Steel Series 5 to the $799 Ultra. I did not think to compare my former $16 Casio (which performed very well) to the $799 Ultra. They just aren’t close enough in function to make a comparison.
@JBUCKNE Жыл бұрын
The video title and whole context is comparing the Ultra2 and the Series 9. Specifically is the much more expensive Watch worth it all the extra money. At the 12:50 mark I’m referencing Dez says when deciding between the two for him it comes down to 3 things but price wasn’t mentioned. He didn’t say between the higher end version of the 9. So for me price would be a large factor as the title suggested and I thought it would also be in to him as he concluded. But hey here’s a thought maybe you should make videos comparing your $50 casio to an Ultra2.
@feversol Жыл бұрын
@@JBUCKNE well, it was a $16 Casio and a $50 difference between the stainless steel version I had (series 5) and the Series 8 version I was considering when I finally decided on the Ultra last year. My point is that many content creators seem to focus on the price of the least expensive model and the Ultra. At least, select the version with similar capabilities such as a cellular capable version. As for price, I could have compared one of my Rolex watches which cost much more than $799 but, admittedly, is far outclassed by the Apple Watches in functionality. I also wonder if the buyer is focusing on price then that should be the discriminator and just buy as high as you can afford. Even the SE version is supposed to be a good watch. I understand what he is trying to demonstrate in cost versus functionality, but he just isn’t choosing comparable watches and that is what many other good content creators seem to do. I might suggest you and I are trying to say the same thing; we just approach it from two different perspectives. These watches are all purposely different in functionality and material so it is difficult to compare based on price. As to your somewhat snarky last sentence, I don’t have the talent or desire to make such a video. I am not dismissing this creators fine work, just quibbling with one relatively small point within his informative video.

I had the original SE and I wanted a new Apple Watch with faster processor and Sapphire glass screen. I was looking at the Sapphire Series 9 that only comes in stainless but the price difference between that and the Ultra 2 was only $50, so it was a no brainer to go for the Ultra 2.

Still enjoying my series 6. I'll probably upgrade to next years if they stop supporting the 6 with updates and whatnot. Still really wanting a glucometer in the watch. Would be an absolute game changer and I'll be preordering that immediately.

I was thinking the same, I’ve got an iPhone 13 Pro Max and Watch 6, might as well got for the iPhone 16 Pro Max and the new watch that comes out then especially when both devices are still great for me and doesn’t cause any issues

My screen cracked at work I had the series 5 it was good it still is and I went to check how much to get it fixed and they said 210. I got the series 9 it’s good not much different then the 5 I still have just faster. The ultra seems really good but the price is high maybe it 4 or 5 years I’ll get a ultra

Great video. I’m upgrading from series 5 stainless steel to the ultra 2. Diesel the series 5 bands work with the ultra 2?

I bought my wife the 9 because the ultra was too large for her wrist and we chose the 41mm. I updated it to stainless because shes very careless with her iphone. I had no idea how much it raised the price until check out 🤦♂️

So, off grid, no cell signal, can I see my position on an off line map I downloaded before going on a hike?

Thanks for saying what needed to be said: like any watch, these watches ‘need’ to come off our wrist at some point to give our wrist a break. During that time, my AWU comes off my wrist and goes on the charger to top off. Never is an issue, for me at least. Great video!

All of my apple products are currently from 2020. I was bored today and decided to watch youtube videos on both the iPhone 15 pro max and Ultra 2. I splurged hahah. Hopefully I love them. We shall see.

When the mapping is as detailed as on the Garmin Phoenix, I’ll be buying the Apple Watch for sure. Until then, I’ll be using either the Phoenix or the Enduro series.

purchased the Series 6 stainless steel version about 3 years ago. Unfortunately, after just a year and a half, it fell off the charger and hit the floor. The watch broke and hasn't turned on since. I honestly can't recommend these watches based on my experience.
