This is the Apple Watch you've been waiting for... if you can afford it

Watch Ultra

The Apple Watch Ultra is the best Apple Watch ever. It's an easy thing to say, as nearly every part has been an upgrade, and all for the better in fact it's easily one of the best smartwatches out there.

As a response to the growing power of the "premium fitness watch" segment, this was the Watch Apple had to make. With a rugged design, better screen and better GPS tracking, it's the first design change in eight years, but it's also expensive at $799.

DESIGN

The titanium frame was something that worried us when we started seeing renders appear online, but in reality it's attractive and we prefer the rugged, metallic stylings to the sleeker lines of the Apple Watch Series 8.

This is a 49mm Apple Watch, with a much-larger display sitting bigger and prouder on the wrist. If you're used to a smaller Watch, the Ultra will feel big and heavy to start with. However, you quickly get used to its extra heft.

The Digital Crown and Side button on one side of the Watch Ultra have been beefed up, with both being encased in metal to make them more rugged and resistant to damage. The Digital Crown is also larger with bigger ridges, designed to be used with a glove. While it is easier to interact with, the Digital Crown's oversized nature does rub into one's skin when spinning it on occasion, which is annoying.
