    The ultra is straight up UGLY

    Without any special “ultra” needs, the design decides; I prefer the steel Apple Watch on the steel link bracelet.

    Anyone with an earlier model Apple Watch can use the double tap feature by turning it on in the Accessibility menu. Just don’t gesticulate too much when you’re using it as a phone or you could cut off your caller by accident. (Yes, too many times.)

    Question: is the Ultra 1 a good buy for those who are a bit budget constrained?

    • Lebanese Nationalist

      November 1, 2023 at 10:07 am

      Yes!

    • Sinalk

      November 1, 2023 at 10:07 am

      the ultra 1 is enough for most people it will probably take 4-5 years before you notice any speed constrains

    • Lexy Savvides

      November 1, 2023 at 8:24 pm

      Definitely recommend the Ultra 1!

      November 1, 2023 at 11:07 am

      Why

    • period

      November 1, 2023 at 8:06 pm

      ​@brucelin5842 somewhat very similar to the series 9 just no always on display or an extra hour of battery life

    I won’t buy a watch without a sapphire display, and if you get the sapphire display on the series 9 now the price difference is only $50 so you might as well spring for the Ultra 2. This gets you double the battery life, the action button, a larger display, a brighter screen, and so much more.

    • Lexy Savvides

      November 1, 2023 at 11:22 pm

      ????

  19. Javiso Gaming

    November 1, 2023 at 6:27 pm

    There is only a $50 difference when configuring the Series 9 like an Ultra.

  20. Endless パラドックス

    November 1, 2023 at 9:43 pm

    And both have a terrible battery

    • Andrew C

      November 2, 2023 at 2:59 pm

      Terrible battery life compared to…?

  26. Eddie Perez

    November 2, 2023 at 2:31 am

    No no no! Its more on fashion, not good if you keep on charging 1 or 2 days.. im using regular smartwatch, not that clean and smooth but cheap and last 8 days battery.. notification for call and message is enough..

  27. Tibi muta Sunta

    November 2, 2023 at 4:49 am

    I prefer 45mm series 9 ????????????????
    U can buy 2 of it for the price of 1 ultra.
    Let’s say you’ll buy every 2yrs a new watch, in 4yrs you’ll buy 2 series (9 and 10) for the same price of 1 ultra.
    If U buy the ultra then it should last 4yrs. Even if it last 4yrs, you only have 1 watch and you’ll miss 4 generations.

  28. SecretOfMonkeyIsland

    Still using a series 5, found every update since then has not been a ‘Must have’ upgrade and the Ultra model is aimed at rugged outdoor pursuits so i dont need that model.

  29. SecretOfMonkeyIsland

    November 2, 2023 at 5:53 am

    The worst fail with the Apple watch is the strap prices £49 is just too expensive, id buy several if they were £30 but at £49 i refuse to buy them .. i am sure lots of people are the same.

  30. Stanley Rubric

    November 2, 2023 at 6:14 am

What does a war look like when you sit still long enough to draw it? Reportage artist and TED Fellow George Butler sketches the people that the news passes by: a 99-year-old survivor of the Holodomor famine in Ukraine, a man gathering books blasted into a rose garden, an architect whose home was hit by a Russian missile. Urging us to slow down in the age of immediate news, Butler shows how a drawing reveals what a headline can’t. (Recorded at TED2026 on April 16, 2026)
