Just got an Ultra 1 for $400, it’s a definite upgrade from the SE 2020!

I just bought the Ultra 1 for £600. Hopefully, it should be a noticeable upgrade from the 2nd Gen Apple Watch.

I’m really torn which model I want. A part of me doesn’t justify the price for the ultra 2 when it’s very very close to the first generation. But at the same time I like the idea of purchasing the ‘new’ model.

The visual difference to tell them apart is at 2:50 where you can see the older model has a smaller opening for the wheel. Could just be the way it's sitting but that's the only thing I can tell that's actually different looking.

Up to 3 days without charging....wao I have the Ultra 2 And I'm fighting for 2 days of battery.

Ultra2 here almost 2 months and very happy ❤

I think you should just bypass the first 2 minutes and get right into the details on the differences. That's why we are here. I could care less about the packaging and what comes with - so I usually have to skip over the typical standard unboxing process because it's non value added pertaining to the title. I mean there are a plethora of videos on Youtube walking us through the differences, the quicker I can get to the value add the more chances I will stay and watch or come back for other content. So in other words - just cut to the chase and get to the good stuff. You can move that other unpacking visuals (for those Christmas unwrapping gift lovers) towards the end. Much appreciations.

Fun fact the “quick action” feature has been out for years, apple just started to advertise it now for some reason but you should be able to use it on almost all Apple Watches.

I upgraded my U1 to the U2 and have no regrets. Why? I think we’re beginning to see what Apple is doing in terms of innovation and I think it’s clear that the Watch has pretty much developed as far as it’s going to go. Don’t get me wrong, there will be minor additions like blood pressure and maybe even eventually blood glucose readings. These will likely be general readings as in your glucose is increasing/decreasing, etc. without giving actual numbers. These are helpful but very limited. This being the case, I'm not sure there's going to be any new "I've got to get a new Apple Watch!" Going forward.
As a result of this I decided to get the U2 because of the new chip and 64GB of storage and let this be my final Apple Watch for the duration. At least until there’s a real reason to upgrade. I was given $410 for my U1 which reduced my cost for the U2 by half. The new chip will future proof the U2 for quite awhile and concerning performance, it’s a watch…it does all the current functions very well and does it’s main function, it tells time! Because the battery is so good, I find I can leave my iPhone 13Mini at home and just take my U2! I do wish it would connect to CarPlay but maybe someday it will. The U2 also gets a brighter screen though the U1 was bright enough. In short, the U2 is an upgrade though not a dramatic one but if like me you plan on sticking with an Ultra, then the U2 is the one to be stuck with! U2 for the duration!

I’m still rocking the Apple Watch series 4 since 2018 when it came out

I broke the back glass of my ultra 1 so I filed an insurance claim, they’re sending me an ultra 2 for a replacement🔥

[Somene]

Got an ultra 1 for $350 was a floor demo unit, it helps having a bro work for Apple at Costco!

[raffymytaffy]

I ended up getting the ultra 475$ looks brand new. I had the series 7 givin it to my partner. Currently own the Gear 6 really dislike it. Very pleased with my Ultra 1

[leolux]

This is the video I needed. No way in hell will I upgrade for that garbage. lol

[tessarcher]

I watched the Event yesterday specifically for the watches. I’m confused about their narrative on the Ultra 2 so I appreciate any relies to clarify. Amazon has been selling an Ultra2 for a while. The Event launched the fancy black one so other than color how is it different than the currently for sale Ultra2s? Follow up question if there are differences like a diff chip are those worth it? I’ll be switching from a cellular 6 because of battery life. TIA!

I like your video because you explain it just simple 😊thanks for sharing

[Alamed]

It is crazy how Apple didn't think about solar power on their watches .. i enjoy that tech in my Protrek Casio watch since 2013 to this day.

The fact you don't think about charging your watch battery is a the real "Big Plus" for me.

I found the Apple Watch Ultra 1 for $600, it's open-box excellent condition though. I think I'll do it. I got my iPad open box excellent condition and it's been flawless.

Edit: I currently don't have a watch at all.

[thorium]

Got the Ultra 2 for $450 from marketplace, very happy with it. The guy also had a screen protector installed

[CokeBoyJay]

Great breakdown on the key differences between the two watches. I'm still using my Apple Watch Series 4 from 2019 and the Ultra 2 looks like an amazing watch upgrade.
