Although the Apple Watch Ultra 3 has been out for six months, which is halfway through its update cycle, Amazon still has the previous-generation Apple Watch Ultra 2 for as low as $499. That’s $300 off the original MSRP when Apple offered this Apple Watch model, so if you don’t need any of the latest features that Ultra 3 has to offer, this is such a significant discount, especially for a previous-generation model. Get this: the Apple Watch Ultra 2 on sale is in new condition, so you’ll receive the original, unopened packaging as well as a completely new battery for the Watch for the maximum battery lifespan possible. Please note that this deal is only for the Apple Watch Ultra 2 in the rugged, natural titanium case with the Indigo Alpine Loop.
To recap, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 features a faster system-in-package, compared to the original Apple Watch Ultra, that allows for many modern software features that even the latest Apple Watch models support. This includes sleep apnea notifications, the Double Tap and Wrist Flick gestures, an improved Neural Engine for faster ML-related performance. The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is also a solid upgrade if you’re coming from an older Apple Watch as you’d get up to 2000 nits of brightness on the always-on Retina display, hypertension notifications, on-device Siri, and Precision Finding for iPhone. One key advantage is that the Apple Watch Ultra features a larger battery for multi-day battery life (up to 36 hours of regular use, or up to 72 hours in Low Power Mode).
If you’re looking for the most rugged Apple Watch experience, this deal is sure to be hard to beat, so you should jump on it if you can.
