“Third time’s the charm?” The Apple Watch Ultra 3 brings a slightly bigger display, longer battery life, faster connectivity with 5G, and a new satellite SOS feature. These aren’t radical changes, but together they make the Ultra 3 feel more polished and capable than its predecessors. The question is whether these upgrades are enough to make it the ultimate user-friendly adventure watch Apple promises or if it is still more of an incremental step than a must-have upgrade.
Both the Ultra 3 and Ultra 2 share many similarities, from the rugged titanium design to the extensive sensor suite and watchOS experience. If you want a full recap of what made the previous generation great, read our Apple Watch Ultra 2 review. I will link it in this piece so we do not repeat ourselves and can focus on what is new and what matters most this year.
