The Apple Watch 10, or potentially the Apple Watch X, is anticipated by many due to rumored significant redesigns, better battery efficiency, and new health features such as sleep apnea detection. However, the author expressed more excitement for the Apple Watch Ultra 3. As a user of the Apple Watch Ultra, the author highlighted the benefits of Apple’s largest, longest-lasting smartwatch, with its rugged design, durable features, and superior battery life.
Sports participation is expected to increase significantly in 2024, with various sports events such as the Paris Olympics, marathon season, and the U.S. Open. The Apple Watch Ultra 3, with its durable titanium design, sapphire glass display, and robust water and dust resistance, is expected to excel at tracking the increased sports activity.
Another key advantage of the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is its battery life. Unlike other Apple Watch models, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 can last up to 36 hours, with a low-power mode extending this to as long as 72 hours. This surpasses the battery life of the Apple Watch Series 9, which lasts up to 18 hours. It’s also rumored that Apple might implement low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) thin-film transistor (TFT) technology to further improve the watch’s battery efficiency.
While details about the Apple Watch Ultra 3 are yet to be fully revealed, it is expected to incorporate all the new upgrades announced for the Apple Watch 10/Watch X. It is also likely that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will feature at least one feature that the Apple Watch 10 will not, such as the Dive app and the Siren feature, accessible through the Apple Watch Ultra’s Action Button.
It is speculated that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will enhance fitness, communication, and safety features. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming Apple Event 2024, where we may learn more about the new features and possible launches.
