They polished that orange button. Quite a bit better IMO.

 

[DonRafa]

how they gonna polish it them throw on a brushed band?!


orange accents are fire

 

[Frankie Blue]

Ya brushed finish does suit the Ultra best I think since it's supposed to be more rugged. A space grey button would look nice.

Charged my Ultra yesterday morning to 100% & have had a timer running the entire time to see at what point it dies.
At 28 hours with every single setting ON (including all my iPhone alerts, sleep tracking, constant music/podcast use, etc)
Battery is at 45%

After a few days of wearing the ultra, this watch really ain’t that big at all.


Before buying this I thought to myself “ dude you use to wear gshocks, the watch ain’t that big”

Only critique.

This action button is gimmicky.

Could’ve easily been a software update. A double or triple click of the crown or side button could’ve done the same thing.

Is agree with the button… for now.
It does constantly get pressed accidentally & turns on whatever action is dedicated (timer for mine).
Once software gets updated for it to be added for anything you want it may be better. Time will tell.

Apple fanboy here, have the iPhone 12 Pro I got last year, along with AirPods Pro, iMac, iPad Mini 6, AirTags, etc

I ordered AirPods Pro Gen2 about a week ago and Amazon just so happened to “loose my package”. Meaning the driver decided he needed him a new pair of AirPods. Anyway, luckily I’m a Prime member so I got a full refund and will reorder today.

I’ve read a lot of positive comments about the improvement from the Gen 1’s to the Gen 2’s, so I’m really excited to get these bad boys in. (And hopefully Amazon don’t “loose” my package again)

Ight we’ll see

Really need these in cause my pros broke the other day and the warranty is expired on them.

Blessing in disguise, with the Prime Early Access you saved 10%

For everyone who purchased the Apple Watch Ultra what band did you start off with? I’m leaning towards the orange Alpine loop to start off with or the Midnight Ocean Band.

 

[bossplaya0625]

^^ midnight ocean band, planning on getting an alpine loop next though.

If you don't need all the heart/blood oxygen measurements than the SE is a dope watch. The display is only 1mm smaller but I gotta be honest with you, that 1mm is noticeable. Very good watch for the money though.

Started off with starlight alpine loop, then green alpine loop. Settled on midnight ocean band for the comfort & waterproofness. Have trail loop coming in black/orange so will see… in a month….

 

[jordanhead718212]

Never owned an Apple Watch, so it's a viable option for me

[jordanhead718212]

Hey, ain’t nothing wrong with dat

Same.

One thing I will/can say about the Apple Ultra Watch is that the battery life is worth the price of admission.

I have the 1st gen SE and it gets the job done. Don’t need all the extra sensors or a bigger display. Only way I’d consider upgrading is if someone tells me the new generations offer much better music/podcast streaming capabilities over cell data.

 

[James_O]

They not going to include anything and people still gonna buy it because its Apple. They were testing the waters when they decided to remove the charging brick. They can get away with whatever now.

I still don’t have a USBC - wall charger, haven’t wanted to spend the money to get one yet., even tho my 12 Pro came with a new cord. I just use one of my old apple chargers.

 

[jmilionair]

48 hrs in & at 8%.
Will charge will it dies & see what time that will be. My guess is around 60 hrs….

 

[jmilionair]

Ultra Finally died around 52 hours (51hrs 57 min).
Not bad.
Charged it to 100%, took an 1 hr & 16 min.
Also, not bad.

My pros base sounds like *** even after adjusting in Spotify. At quieter levels it’s OK, but when I turn it up even past half way it just sounds like a nuclear explosion, there’s no separation or punch.

Also really excited for the adjustable volume on the stem, this is something I wish they would have added in the pros.

Anyway, we’ll see tmr. (If Amazon don’t steal my package again )
