At the beginning of the meeting with Apple, Tim Cook announced that today we will learn about new developments in its most important product families. The first device to be announced was the new Apple Watch Series 8, followed by the Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch. closure of the Apple Watch Ultra family.
This new watch is meant to cement itself at the top of the Apple watch family, the features it integrates make its Ultra family name perfect. First of all, it is a construction designed to withstand any situation, such as falls, inclement weather and, of course, daily friction..
The new model is made not only by the design, but also by the straps that come with this device. Apple introduced three new straps that come with this model, In addition, it also occurs a new element on the side of the device opposite the classic Apple crown.
The material chosen by Apple to make this watch is titanium, and the screen has a sapphire coating built into it, which allows it to provide much more stability on an overall level.
Screen which is located under this cladding, is supplied with new night mode which changes the color of the elements to red and day mode with a maximum brightness of 2000 nits.
The screen chosen for the Apple Watch Ultra is a Retina Ion-X Glass LTPO OLED display with 1,000 nits of brightness. and an Always-On display so you can be active at any time. Larger than the other two watches featured, the Apple Watch Ultra measures 49 millimeters, which means it won’t fit all wrists.
This large screen is flat, unlike other Apple watches., the solution behind this design is to make the screen not so open. This is noticeable on its sides, which serve as a barrier to possible impacts that the screen can receive, in addition, the thickness of these sides is significant.
Being the most advanced Apple watch, it has a number of features that are not integrated into other watches. Among these features is a battery life of 36 hours without any saving mode, although this can be increased up to 60 hours when the battery saver mode is activated.. The progress is pretty big on the overall usage level.
During the Apple presentation, the focus was on the watch face, designed specifically for the Apple Watch Ultra..
The orb is called the Wayfinder and has a built-in compass at the top, as well as room for eight elements that the user can place to get the information they need.
As we can see, this model has an additional button on the left side compared to the Watch Series 8 family and the rest of the Apple Watch that we can customize, and it is known as the action button.
Apple Watch Ultra has two built-in speakers so you can hear announcements from farther away. including an 86 decibel siren that Apple says can be heard up to 600 feet away.. This is an add-on to improve safety when doing outdoor sports such as trekking or mountain biking.
To facilitate the performance of these sports built-in dual-frequency GPS, GPS L1 and L5/GNSS, whose mission it is to be able to accurately track the routes on which these sports are played.
It has a feature that allows us to undo our steps and return home without any problems along the same route we came from, in addition to advanced career modes.
In addition, it has all the expected measurement sensors such as SpO2, heart rate, ECG, accelerometer, gyroscope, altimeter, compass, pulse…
In addition to outdoor sports that take place on land, Apple has focused on providing users with the opportunity to engage in extreme water sports.
A specific example is diving, Apple Watch Ultra has a sport-specific mode that displays dive data on the screen..
It is able to withstand diving to a depth of 40 meters, constantly indicating the temperature. and in addition, for users who practice scuba diving, Apple has obtained EN1339 certification.
Come on, this is a watch designed for extreme sports and for users who need smart equipment at this time.
Availability and price of Apple Watch Ultra
The new Apple Watch Ultra can be reserved starting today. The price at which it starts will be 999 euros., which is $799 in the United States.

The booking date does not match the sale date: September 23 is the date specified by Apple. so that these watches start arriving at the homes of people who decide to reserve them in advance, and those who want to go to the store to buy them or who have not decided to order.
