Superb and honest review. Seen lots of YouTubers talking like it’s a done deal and they know what is coming out. Excellent suggestions on wish list
I’m so glad you pointed out that others do patents besides Apple to block out others as well. I agree. A light on the outside of the Apple Watch would be nice, but its in Garmins best interest to not allow that to happen no time soon. Maybe Apple could do a brighter ring around the screen on the actual screen. That would allow you to see your stacks and use a flash of light as well. I don’t know. Just brainstorming.
Oh, fantastic! Just when I thought my life was missing something, Apple graces us with yet another watch. 🙄 I’ve been on the edge of my seat, just WAITING for another underwhelming gadget to add to the collection. Remember the good ol’ days when Apple products were actually exciting? Me neither. And let’s talk battery life, shall we? I’m sure I’ll have the absolute pleasure of charging this bad boy every. single. day. Because, you know, who doesn’t adore being besties with their charger? It’s like Apple knows exactly what we don’t want and delivers it with a bow. Bravo, Apple, bravo! 👏😂
Apple must fix Ultra’s unreliability in open water swim tracking. It’s disappointing.
iPhone offers an always-listening Siri option, but the Apple Watch doesn’t offer the same convenience. Users must lift and twist their wrist to activate Siri, creating a hurdle for severely disabled people. Apple should consider aligning Siri’s behavior on the Watch with the iPhone. It would open up a world of new possibilities for severely disabled people — hands-free calling, messaging, home control and more. As it is at the moment, the Watch is next to useless for some people. It doesn’t have to be this way. With the Ultra’s already generous battery life I would gladly accept 50 per cent less battery life for a truly always listening Siri while the Watch is down
Not going to get it but I would like a baby Ultra in the $500 range. I am not an outdoorsman but would like a more rugged Apple Watch. So, maybe Apple would consider opening up the line of watches to give us something in the middle. Also, how about a round face design. The rectangle is, well, a rectangle.
Bruh, i got the ultra only to tell time. I dont use it for anything else. I got it because i like how big and thick it is. All the other features it has, i never use them at all. If they made the new ultra 2 bigger then i would get it. Im still waiting for apple to make a band that can hold your iPhone on your wrist as a watch. But of course i know they would never do that because nobody would get an apple watch then. ✌️
Last comment, now real talk, why is nobody asking for the most important feature for the ultra and all apple watches? I guess im the only nerd who wants and needs the always on display to always have the seconds hand on. Yes, try to use any watch face with hands and the seconds hand always disappears when it goes into dim light mode. Bros, do you guys at apple just dont know how seeing the seconds hands is important? The only reason i can come up to as why Apple does not do this and i bet will never do this is because they being nice to normal watch makers. Thats the only reason i can think of . Because if Apple updated and had seconds hand stay on constantly , then nobody would need a normal watch with hands. Medical personal for sure need the seconds hand when like doing certain things like checking heart rate or blood pressure. But the fact that i been wanting this feature and nobody else does, shows people who get apple watch dont care about using apple watch for real life important things for medical workers. They all have to get normal watches with actual seconds hands so they can do there job. So yeah, HUGE screw up on apples part. But either they being nice to watch companies by not adding this or they dont care. Either way, i guess it gives me an excuse to get a rolex yacht master. ✌️
Love my ultra but unless they make the screen even bigger I won’t upgrade for a while
How about satellite tracking?
What watch does show seconds when “down”? The answer is obvious, like always — GARMIN!
Apple should definitely consider a built-in flashlight on the Ultra model. It seems like it would be a nice feature to have, considering the fact that its intent was made for the outdoors. But, if they were to bring this feature to the Ultra, I highly doubt it would be on this upcoming Ultra 2. Probably, on the 3 or 4.
I agree. If the ultra was a bit smaller and a darker color I would upgrade to it. I’ve been waiting for the 2 release before I do so we’ll see!
Diving feature: other app entry. Because oceanic+ is too expensive. I’d rather buy another suunto dedicated dive watch at that app subscription price.
battery battery battery better still put a solar screen!! or a strap that has a battery in it
👍
I don’t expect them to do it on this update, but air integration for scuba diving would be nice
I honestly think that the hardware is already pretty on-point. With the new S9 chip it should have increased efficiency so hoipefully a bit longer battery life. Other than that, I think the main benefits can come from software updates such as proper navigation, integrating the compass and map into the workouts app so that you can set them as views in your activities and new watch faces. The Apple watch watch faces are getting so stale. Apple has set up this system with their “complications” that are all either circles or a corner or for some watch faces it can be a large rectangle and it means that EVERY watch face is just some combination of these complications and it is so boring. I wish Apple would open up the watch face to third party developers or just create an all new class of watch faces that are free to be designed however they want and not have to use the standard complications. A someone who has been using Apple Watch since the series 2 and has tried some Garmins, I am getting pretty bored of the same old watch faces but I still prefer Apple Watch over Garmin so I begrudgingly just keep using the Apple watch with it’s stale UI.
I want a 5nm S9. watchOS is so lightweight, everything should be instantaneous and it isn’t more often than i’d like. it occasionally has hang ups
battery improvement isn’t needed per say but I really want it, to comfortably make this device truly be able to be phone independent for a whole day
louder/clearer speakers and better voice isolation on the mics would be great. I don’t like/want to have to hold the watch as close to my face as I often do
additional color options would be welcome but I do like the traditional titanium color
better efficiency so dim display could show seconds without costing any battery life would be cool but not near the top of my list
more watch bands
Ultra mini?
