Our take on the Apple Watch Ultra 3 (GPS + Cellular) A3281 49mm Natural Titanium/Blue Alp Lp M

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is Apple's largest and toughest watch, with a 49mm natural titanium case, sapphire crystal and 100m water resistance. It adds satellite messaging for emergencies and a brighter wide-angle display, and Apple rates battery life at up to 42 hours of normal use or 72 hours in Low Power Mode. Dual-frequency GPS, running power, training load and a physical Action Button make it a serious training and adventure tool. It is bigger, heavier and more expensive than the standard Series watches, so it suits athletes and outdoor users more than casual step-counters.

Questions and answers

Is the Ultra 3 worth it over a standard Apple Watch?
If you train hard, go off-grid or want multiday battery and satellite messaging, yes. For everyday notifications and fitness rings, a standard Apple Watch does the same core jobs in a smaller case.
How is it different from the Ultra 2?
The Ultra 3 adds satellite emergency messaging and a brighter wide-angle display, and Apple rates battery life slightly higher. The case, size and Action Button carry over.
Do I need a cellular plan?
Only for calls, texts and data away from your iPhone. GPS, workouts and satellite emergency messaging work without one, but satellite service requires a supported setup.
How long does the battery last?
Apple rates up to 42 hours of normal use and up to 72 hours in Low Power Mode. A long GPS workout with heart rate can run about 20 hours in Low Power Mode.
Is it good for swimming and diving?
Yes. It is water resistant to 100m and rated for swimming, diving and high-speed water sports, which covers most recreational use.
What is in the box?
The watch, the Alpine Loop band and a charging cable. A power adapter is not included.
