Apple Watch Ultra 2 Makes Its Debut at Wonderlust Event

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 replaces the model from the previous year. For those who don't know, it is the company's flagship smartwatch that is largely targeted towards outdoor and adventure fans. Apple's Watch Ultra versions appear to be an attempt by Apple to compete with Garmin. The most recent second-generation product is incrementally improved over its predecessor.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 Specifications

The Watch Ultra 2 from Apple is lighter thanks to the usage of plastic components that were 3D printed. Remember that the first-generation model, which tipped the scales at 61.3 grams, is one of the heaviest and largest smartwatches compared to its rivals.

The rotating crown and action button on the right side of the Apple Watch Ultra are still there, and the latter allows rapid access to various capabilities. For viewing in bright sunshine, it offers an Always-on Retina display up to 3,000 nits. Three microphones and adaptive beamforming are included in the wristwatch to enhance call quality and lessen background noise. Additionally, machine learning is used to reduce wind noise for crystal-clear audio.

A heart-rate monitor, an ECG sensor, and a SpO2 tracker are all included in the Apple Watch Ultra 2's list of health and fitness capabilities. Apple's smartwatches have successfully identified atrial fibrillation in several cases, saving customers' lives. The wearable gadget includes thermometry for better forecasting along with a menstrual cycle tracker for women. Additionally, it features two sensors that remove exterior and bodily prejudice for women. Retroactive ovulation predictions might potentially be useful for family planning.

For outdoor use, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 has a multi-band, dual-frequency GPS. For elite swimmers and divers, there are features for pro-running and a depth gauge. In case the user gets lost, the device's 86 dB siren with emergency functionality might assist others in finding them. The wristwatch still has a crash detection feature that, in the event of a serious auto accident, will contact emergency medical personnel if the wearer is unresponsive for longer than 10 seconds.

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is powered by a brand-new S9 processor, which is said to offer considerable performance improvements. Additionally, a second-generation ultrawide-band chip with enhanced Find My features, accurate position tracking, and increased power economy is there.

Pricing

The GPS + Cellular model of the Apple Watch Ultra 2 is priced at $799. The product will be on sale on September 22.
