The high-end watch is aimed at serious athletes and others with specialized fitness tracking needs, so the sensors are spot-on and the exterior is incredibly durable. It still has the same 49-millimeter form factor as the original, so it’s not too thick. The display is much brighter than the OG Ultra’s, up to 3,000 nits. This should make it easier to read in low-light conditions, which is another plus for extreme athletes who do early-morning training sessions.
As for power, the smartwatch includes a , which enables the aforementioned Double Tap gesture controls and enhanced Siri functionality. The battery can last up to 72 hours on a single charge, provided it's in low-power mode. Otherwise, it will run out of juice after about 36 hours.
This is an incredible smartwatch. Not only does it cost twice as much, but it's also packed with features that most people don't need. It's a device for fitness enthusiasts or those who spend long periods offline. That said, today's deal makes this device pretty appealing to the rest of us.
