The Apple Watch Ultra is big and bold and has the performance to back that up. Whether you’re an athlete or just want the very best, you won’t be disappointed in this device. The combination of an incredible screen, a larger battery and a seriously durable casing make this worthy of the Ultra name and the best Apple Watch on the market.

The Apple Watch Ultra built for adventure and endurance - how does it get on in the hands of our ultra-marathon runner?

The Apple Watch Ultra is the perfect wearable for those dedicated to outdoor sports like running, hiking and diving, with better durability, longer battery life and dual-band GPS providing more accurate tracking data. It’s pricey, and the accompanying straps need work, but it’s still a very capable option that’s actually cheaper than some competitors.

The Apple Watch Ultra might be the ultimate smartwatch. Sure, it doesn’t have the same long-lasting battery as some Garmin or Fitbit wearables, and it lacks some of the exercise-tracking features those two offer like rep-tracking or recovery stats. Those looking to track their sleep might prefer the lower profile of the Series 8 or SE. People who don’t dive, hike, bike or run outside regularly also don’t need to spend the extra cash on the Ultra — the Series 8 is more than capable as a daily fitness tracker. But with a durable build, helpful tools for specialized use cases and watchOS’ general capability as a mainstream smartwatch platform, the Watch Ultra is a powerful companion that most outdoor enthusiasts can rely on.

“The Apple Watch Ultra's expertly made special features give it surprisingly wide appeal, with the long battery life and characterful, luxurious design making it a fantastic choice even for those not planning any daring adventures.”
