When I was contemplating getting the ultra, I knew I was out on getting Apple Care. Ain’t no way I was gonna get a super durable “ultra” watch and think I’d mess it up because of regular daily use.

If I could I don’t even want it any more.

My aluminum series 4 is doing just fine.

So it’s worth upgrading from my air pod pro’s?

The new iOS isn’t much different - but I am enjoying the shortcuts on the lock screen feature. Before that I had the accessibility button on to do the same thing - but it got in the way on the screen for certain apps.

My only problem is that I can’t find the picture I’ve been using for my lock screen or background anywhere and it doesn’t seem to let you add widgets to the existing one - you have to add a new pair. I’ve got similar ones but it just looks slightly off. I suppose I’ll get used to it.

Over the years we’ve proven to be very similar lol. So that may be the case.

Keep it a buck. You think you could dress that up?

maybe with a simple band it’d be passable. i’d likely just switch to an analog watch if i’m dressing up

Was debating getting the Ultra until I found out that the actual screen size is basically the exact same as the 45mm.

 

[natethevillain]

Any thoughts on the Airpods max? In-ears just don't fit right with my ears. How're these for use in the gym (light cardio / weight lifting)?

TBH the choice behind grabbing the ultra would be more than the screen sz. Battery life, durability, additional capabilities, etc…

Oh 100%, I just think some people were expecting a bigger screen. Still lot's of selling points for the Ultra. I think it will sell very well.

Still wanting the stainless steel but the release of the ultra basically made the stainless steel version, in theory more expensive.

With the ultra you’re getting twice the battery, titanium casing, extra features and a premium ($99) band and it’s 799

The stainless steel I’ve been thinking about getting is … $799

Thé édition, titanium model was like 849 or 999 for last years series 7.

Apple really tryna put their foot on Garmins neck. They could’ve EASILY charge a rack for that ultra.

 

[spizike231]

The stainless and ultra are apples and oranges when it comes to actually wearing a timepiece.

The stainless to me offers more value in being so versatile. But the ultra definitely has its uses.

 

[Frankie Blue]

Had to grab the white band for the stainless. Still looking for last years Nike Sports loop with the "Nike" on the band instead of this years "Just do it". Can't find them anywhere in Canada.

 

[DonRafa]

i need to get a silicone band for the gym

 

[jopx]

Yeah, I'm with bae until the ultra talents are available with a polish... will be a glorious upgrade at that point.

i love mines, i wash them often if i use them at the gym.

the earpads are super easy to remove and just rinse with some water maybe soap if u sweat alot

performance is great
