I used Apple Watch Ultra 1 and 7 for a week - Battery review

I was torn between the Apple Watch Ultra 1 and Apple Watch 7 Stainless Steel, so I lived with both to find out.

Honestly speaking, I really wait for your new videos whenever I'm on KZbin. Love the way you make your videos more organic, and appreciate your effort in doing so. Keep up the good work, would love to see more videos in the upcoming next year. Best wishes for your cute bunny baby girl 👍🤞

[@darma8159]

I love the videos too. Unfortunately this watch has features not truly developed by Apple and I will avoid it until they settle with Masino.

[@sbstn451]

I have no idea about Apple Watch Ultra or 7 or whatever. The only thing I can say for sure is that the sun rises in my heart every time I see your two wonderful kids. Stay healthy, Merry Christmas and happy holidays to your whole family.

Initially I subscribed for the awesome wholesome content. 3 videos in and now ALL notifications are on. Fantastic family. I have a 2 year old daughter and you guys are a lovable family. Sending love from Botswana.

I started at your keyboard comparison video and subscribed, then binged everything else. You have something special you're growing on KZbin. Keep up the good work, and thanks!

Nice video as usual, and your daughter brings so much joy and cheer to everything you do. Keep these videos coming 😍

[@A..N..D..]

Your videos are my favorite. Love your content!

[@Neil_Sarg]

I have been looking forward to your next video I really enjoy your content dude keep up pumping out the videos :)

[@BrendenWeaver]

The pinch to pick up thing is also an accessibility setting so I wouldn’t worry about it. They just want to rebrand a feature and make it new, coming from someone with a Apple Watch se

[@atthaphont]

This video migrated me from Watch5 to Ultra and I am happy 😊😊😊 thanks

[@thesamuelnam]

Happy to hear that!

[@vikeshmistry8647]

ANOTHER amazing video! Please don’t change!! I got rid of my SE2 and bought a second hand 100% battery health ultra 1 for £460 (GBP), best decision I ever made!!

[@thesamuelnam]

What an upgrade.

[@brandonfrost9801]

I just got the Ultra 2 with decent discount I had the Ultra 1 briefly at significant discount but the upgrades are worth it for me

How did you make that black watch face 4 the ultra?

[@paulmichael4094]

You my dude are one of my fave peoples on KZbin and your children are beautiful :) keep up the vids plz :)

[@marksman6803]

Always good to see your video mate …. Isnt the ultra very bulky ? I am a 41mm user and dont you think 49mm will look more like a gigantic tech display and less like a watch on the wrist ? But yeah battery life is a deal breaker … i coulda used the better battery life than the increased peak brightness on s9….

[@bibhudattasahu610]

I watched your content for the first time, and loved it. +1follower

[@muhammadbinmohamedamin2179]

Ultra battery is good. The price is 3x more than my apple watch 7. 150usd vs 450usd. Is it worth the upgrade? 🤔

[@greypills]

Okay, I am waiting for the end of the next video now!

[@shadeven]

Where did you get the big discount from for ultra 1? I can only find like $100 off on Amazon.

[@liewchenkwok7957]

Bro, I bet a lot of people waiting for your new video 😎😎😎

[@noeli_333]

I have it yes it is love the content

[@possiblyicy]

I don't know if it actually makes a noticeable difference in the weight, but your weight measurements probably should've been without the bands on. Additionally, how old is your Series 7? Could've been worth checking and reporting the battery health of it if it's something you've been using for some time. I mean it was going to be a given that the Ultra would last longer, but still.

[@thesamuelnam]

Good point. Watch 7 and Ultra are both 100% health. I wanted to measure the weight with the preferred bands for each. So wanted to see weight difference with bands on. The stainless band is what tips the scale.

[@rod3154]

Hello ! I really love your content , it’s helpful entertaining and very well filmed ! I want to begin create vidéo like your’s can you recommend me What de vice should i buy to start please ? Îm postent my requeqt as if i Where throwing a bottle into the sea ,with not really hop but who know 😆 Sorry for thé Bad english

[@bacalucosmin4064]

how long do you expect your battery to last, I mean when it starts to decrease in health, i.e. 98 96, not how long the battery will last, 2 days, I hope you understand what I mean

[@aovreberg]

Just upgraded from Watch Series 3 to a used Ultra 1. I love the Ultra, and getting it used was a good deal cheaper than a new one. Paid 630 Euro. Thanks for a good video :)

[@Rahul_dz7mi]

Show us the unboxing and reaction.

[@thesamuelnam]

Will do. We’re going on a road trip and sleeping in a tent over Christmas. I’ll bring all the gifts under the tree.

[@eddiechan1964]

May I ask where you got your secondhand ultra from as I cannot see it in the refurbished store in Sydney? Thanks

[@thesamuelnam]

I got it from Marketplace Facebook. Be careful of scams.

[@eddiechan1964]

@@thesamuelnam - is there a way to check if the watch is a genuine Apple one?

[@thesamuelnam]

@@eddiechan1964 first off. Don't buy sealed. Most sealed cheap apple watches are fakes. You can get serial and check online.

[@berdugosocials9854]

I still rock the Series 4 coming from the first Apple Watch. I can’t keep track how many straps (oem & rip off) I’ve bought 😅 these things last for as long as the battery can.

[@darma8159]

Ultra is heavy and bulky. Also just got banned due to infringement. Pathetic Apple violating copyrights

[@RolandKoller90]

@@darma8159😂😂😂

[@transitengineer]

Wow, your video's really pull at ones ... emotions! Would love to buy an Apple Watch Ultra but, you really need an iPhone to make good use of it. Something which, I never plan to do because a powerful $100 Android mobile telephone more than meets my needs. Also, since 1996, my home desktop computers have all been Apple systems (smile...smile).

[@MiLo16We]

GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY BROTHER

[@lingivey36]

I have a watch 7.. and uh. It barely lasts 10 hours a day… so am i missing something in settings? It’s a cellular version but i dont use that. On days i workout i understand.. but seems like you get a whole lot of life.

[@thesamuelnam]

Check battery health. Mine were both on 100%

[@butcanudothis]

I love the videos. I need to share some concerns regarding maintaining privacy, how do i contact you?

Thanks man. Chat to me on Instagram or X @thesamuenam

LOVE my ultra 2, that my lovely woman got for me. I’ve left the house so many times with just my watch. It’s freeing. I spent about 8 hours out away from my phone and only lost 12%. That’s 8 hours on cellular away from the phone and it only lost 12% 🤯

[@thesamuelnam]

Mental battery. You don't know until you try the smaller regular apple watch. 1.5 day battery is baaad.

man video was spoiled as I saw the marketplace add first 😢Big fan btw

[@thesamuelnam]

That's crazy. Getting a lot of messages in marketplace saying they watched my video :)

[@leftytighty]

i wish they would make a normal apple watch with titanium bezel😓

[@TexasDad765]

I gifted my series 6 to my wife. The ultra makes the 6 feel too “dainty”. Even at 44 mm

[@TheRecordedLife]

i am the first viewer, you make good content.

[@thesamuelnam]

That was quick.

[@reeseromeo6]

Going back to Garmin, Apple is more worried about texting from your watch than fitness and health. I’m tired of using 3rd party apps for everything.

[@jayprajapati1859]

idk how many gonna agree with me....BUT VLOGS GONNA BE A DOPE IDEA

[@ironshadowy]

Uhhh… checking on apples website, the ultra 2 is being sold for £799. Whats going on here?

You can add two apple watches to the same phone

[@thesamuelnam]

But only 1 is activated at any given time. The one you put on first. I tried everything but resorted to buying another iPhone ahh.

Does your wife watch your videos? 😂

[@thesamuelnam]

Never. Hasn’t seen a single video. We’ll find out if she watches them.

[@candidobm]

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.

[@neelarjunraj1163]

All the sleep features on non ultra apple watches r literally useless becoz that's the only time u charge it

[@thesamuelnam]

Bang on. You're right. Hence the easy decision.

[@Nala_1230]

too bad it's banned as of 12/26/2023

[@tjustin47]

The ultra one is banded also?

[@thesamuelnam]

Yeah. You can still buy it because of the appeal. They’ll do a software update to continue selling them. S9 and Ultra 2 both use same tech that they got sued for.

[@teslaboi8710]

You do realise that the ultra 1 hase that pinchy thing

[@cl4ssic]

You guys look ridiculous with this huge thing on your tiny baby wrists…

[@thesamuelnam]

Loool yep. Watch 3 looks like an ultra on us.
