Is the Apple Watch Ultra worth it over a standard Apple Watch?

If you want a bigger, tougher watch with longer battery life, dual-band GPS and an Action button, yes. For everyday notifications and fitness, a standard Apple Watch does most of the same for less bulk.

How long does the battery last?

Apple rates about 36 hours in normal use and up to 60 hours in low power mode. Heavy GPS workouts cut that to well under a day.

Does it work with Android phones?

No. The Apple Watch Ultra requires an iPhone to set up and use.

Can you dive with it?

Yes. It is rated to 100m water resistance and has a depth gauge for recreational diving to 40m, plus a dive computer app.

The watch, a band, and a magnetic fast-charging USB-C cable. A power adapter is not included.

Which band should you choose?

Trail Loop for hiking and everyday wear, Alpine Loop for a secure fit on rough terrain, Ocean Band for water sports and diving.

About the Apple Watch Ultra GPS Cellular 49mm Titanium Case

The Apple Watch Ultra is Apple's largest, toughest watch: a 49mm titanium case, flat sapphire crystal, 100m water resistance and a dedicated Action button. It adds a brighter 2000-nit display, dual-band GPS, a depth gauge and an 86dB siren over the standard Series watches. Battery life runs about 36 hours in normal use and up to 60 hours in low power mode, far short of dedicated multisport watches like Garmin's Fenix line but well ahead of other Apple Watches. It suits hikers, divers, runners and iPhone users who want a rugged watch that still handles calls, messages and apps.
