Finally another Apple video from Faiz! 🍎
I enjoy the Ultra Watch, and I don’t do all the crazy adventure stuff.
You make a lot of good points, hopefully Apple is listening, I've heard others mention a lot of the thing's you did.
A smaller Ultra I would think is coming, or maybe the apple watch 10 will have a similar body of the ultra without the action button, good video.
I would seriously love mini Ultra… i would def buy it… apple should def release 41 and 45 version of it
Thank you! Smaller Ultra or series 10 w/Ultra-like body would be a game changer
Fantastic video! 🎉
Just upgraded from series4 stainless steel to ultra2.
Have been used it for 7 months.
I feel it very heavy and don’t like its design.
I am planning to back to use some old stainless steel model before series 10 release
I've been a fan of big watches so I went for the Ultra 2 and ditched my Series 7. Depending on the band, the Ultra looks good in any business attire. My only minimal gripe I have about Ultra 2 is that it didn't come in a graphite color. I'm thinking maybe the future Ultra 3 might have that color option and it it does, I'll buy it and buy the stainless steel graphite watch band separately. Other than that I love everything about especially the battery life.
Love the stainless steel one. Looks much classier
Got to agree with you. My mate has a ultra and it does look too big. I'm so happy I went with the 9
Only thing I find annoying about the curved screens is screen protectors... I have gone through about 6 cracked glass protectors (which are a pain to apply) and ended up getting so sick of the glass that I am using the film protectors now, I need to replace the film maybe every 3 months or so because they always end up bubbling or peeling eventually.
This is enough to make me want to switch to the flat screen of the ultra. I despise curved screens now despite how elegant they look. Same issue with the older Samsung ultra phones and why I switched to iPhones for the flat screens.
What’s your wrist size?
Absolutely you are right, I’m sick of this ultra 2 big and uncomfortable , feels like I’m hanging on brick.
Fantastic video! I agree - the Ultra is just too big and doesn’t look as good as a standard Apple Watch when on the wrist.
Did the same thing but with an AWU1 back to an AW7 SS. Same reasons… 👍🏻
Glad it’s not just me!
We both have the Apple Watch Ultra and we love the light feel of the titanium body. We used to wear the aluminum small body Apple Watch because it was affordable. The stainless steel models were much heavier, but much more durable and they had a very hard watch face. The aluminum body's Ion glass would scratch easily. I love the style of the Ultra Watch and its protected crown. I have never met you, but it seems to me that the Ultra would be way too big for you, but the sleek stainless bodied watches fit you much better and would now be able to fit your watch under a buttoned cuff of a long sleeved shirt. I cannot imagine wearing the Ultra on a dressy night out, if those still exist!
I agree it has a lot to do with personal preference. I really do like the overall square design of the Ultra and the protected crown. I wish Apple made a stainless steel/Ultra hybrid. It would look amazing
@@FaizAly I completely agree with you, but I doubt that it will happen. I think that there is a better chance for Tesla to expand the Cybertruck lineup.
The reason I still keep my series 7 is because of the black titanium finish. I wish the AW Ultra 3 comes with it
Black titanium would be 🔥
The Apple 10 is supposed to be a totally new design. I just bought the Ultra 2 and now wish I had waited until the new 10's come out in September...
It’s definitely worth waiting for Apple Watch 10. Rumors are also suggesting it could release next year
The ultra 2 will remain a beast for a long time I just got mine 3 weeks ago I doubt it shows age anytime soon I have a few coworkers that rock a series version although they still look well can’t go wrong with either
Just trade it in later.
U can always buy a new one later
Honestyly Apple watch ultra 2 is a beast! Its just so big and uncomfortable in wrist sometimes
I am 285 pounds, 6’3 at 9% body fat. I love your videos but could you implement a larger friend wearing the watch because I agree that the watch looked big on you but the comparative to a larger wrist may look just right on others. You got me into other watches I had to send back because they looked amazing in you but kinda funny on a guy if my size.
Why didn’t you keep the Ultra for working out and have the Series’s 9 for daily?
I’m somewhat of a minimalist. I prefer to have just one watch instead of two. Don’t take me wrong, your idea is great! Just now my lifestyle
Totally agree I’ve very small wrists as well certainly not made for us 😂😎
Team small wrists here we go!
Im skinny and have a small wrist . Just got my series 9 41mm.. looks better..
I never liked the ultra. The design is perfect for the intended user, people who do all these things that I don’t lol. I have the series 9 and it took me a while to get used to it because my past Samsung watches were rounded, which I prefer. But the AW series 9 grew on me big time now ❤
The Appie❤👍👍👍
Post more Apple videos Faiz 🍎
You got it 🫡
I think it looks great on your wrist.
You’re the first to say that so I appreciate it! 😊
Where are you going to return your watch after 2 years?
I sold it
I returned my ultra for the s9 because it was too big and I felt the weight 😂
You and me both 😊
@@FaizAly yeah the S9 is as goed and last me almost two days before charging but then still have about 11-15 min left
It's a man sized watch. Definitely not for everyone.
Battery life for Ultra 2 is much better.
I agree and that’s a great point. However I charge my watch and my iPhone each night either way and it still easily lasts over a day
@@FaizAlyyou don’t sleep with the watch? I love sleep tracking. I have the ultra atm and considering swapping to a 9 or waiting for a 10
@@Kreiger81 nope. I sleep with the Ultrahuman Ring Air
I’ve had the regular watches but after so many battery issues. I would only buy ultra watches they are so much better in every way.
That’s an interesting observation, Will. Is this with the newer watches too? I’ve owned Series 7, 8 and now 9 and don’t have those battery issues
@@FaizAly The battery in my S6 died today after 4 years (less). Straight from working all day to needing 3 charges to get through the day with no change in use. Thanks for the video - I'm trying to decide if I want to go Ultra or not. My wrist is wide enough that the Ultra won't cover it and I like the look, but wow you made that stainless steel look good, especially with that band.
There is no point in buying the ultra the SS is classier. If I wanted a true sports watch with at least more than 2 days battery I’ll go with a Garmin watch.
The ultra looks cheap I never liked the designed.
Well it's def gonna look too big with broomstick wrists.
Ouch. But true lol
Was never a fan of the Ultra
I was looking for DETAILS about the watch and what it has to offer! You repeated over and over and over ad nauseam about how elegant the watch was! WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE LOOK! People want to know about performance! We call ALL SEE what it looks like and how we can change it up! What a waste of my time!
