The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is a good watch but a small upgrade

The $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3 gets satellite SOS, 5G, a bigger display, and longer battery. But these aren't great reasons for Ultra owners to upgrade.

Say you’re a weekend warrior who has resisted buying an Ultra so far. How often do you go off-grid? How’s cellular service where you live? If the answer is “not often” and “pretty great,” consider keeping an eye on Ultra 2 sales while inventory lasts....

Apple Watch Ultra 3 review: Apple's best watch gets better, not different

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is one large, capable, and very feature-rich smartwatch, but it still feels like an overkill for the regular user.

Best display on an Apple Watch ; Improved battery iife and charging speeds ; Sensible new health features and other functionalities

Little reason to upgrade from previous Apple Watch Ultra models ; Most features might be wasted on the regular Apple user

Apple Watch Ultra 3 Review: Brilliant, But I’m Not Switching (Yet)

Apple Watch Ultra 3 keeps the same design, but key upgrades deliver what fans wanted. Read our full honest review.

Super bright display ; Third-party sensor support ; Emergency SOS and two-way satellite messaging ; Seamless Apple ecosystem integration ; Fast charging

Only one large size ; Around two days of battery life ; Expensive if you are mostly after the design

The Ultra 3 feels like the most refined version yet. Its biggest upgrades, including satellite SOS, full two-way satellite messaging, and meaningful battery and charging improvements, speak directly to safety and independence, which is what this...

Apple Watch Ultra 3 Review: Biggest Is Best, Except If It’s Not

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 has the most features of any Apple smartwatch, but you may not need to buy it if you want two of its best features.

Big screen ; Satellite connectivity is useful for emergencies ; Even longer battery life ; Rugged and durable ; Sleep Score is great

Too still huge ; Still $800 ; Only two colors

Apple Watch Ultra 3 The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is the biggest and most feature-packed smartwatch that Apple sells, but that doesn't necessarily mean you need to upgrade.

The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is great, but you can probably skip the upgrade

If you've been on the fence about Apple's bulky, but very durable-feeling smartwatch, now is a great time to pull the trigger given the battery life g

Stunning display ; Durable design ; New Satellite features offer peace-of-mind ; Battery life improvements are welcome

Still big and bulky ; Not much of an upgrade over the Ultra and Ultra 2 ; Similar feature set to the Series 11
