Apple Watch Ultra specifications
The new Apple Watch Ultra, according to Apple, has a titanium casing and a 49mm Retina display with up to 2,000 nits of maximum brightness. It also has a new Wayfinder watch face made specifically for the smartwatch’s larger sapphire crystal display. It has a brand-new Action button that may be used to activate a number of functionalities.
Three microphones are included in the smartwatch for better sound quality, and an adaptive beamforming system is said to reduce ambient background noise in difficult conditions. Apple asserts that the watch boasts the most precise GPS capabilities of any Apple Watch to date. It has dual-frequency compatibility for both L1 and L5 GPS algorithms.
Users can start exercises quickly, switch to a new Compass Waypoint (intended to swiftly highlight locations of interest on a map), Backtrack (to assist users in retracing their steps when they become lost), or check their depth while diving with the new depth gauge by pressing the new Action button. According to Apple, the Action button and the crown can be used when wearing gloves.
According to Apple, the Apple Watch Ultra has a normal usage battery life of up to 36 hours. A new low-power setting, which the business says will be available, is promised to provide up to 60 hours of battery backup. It is certified to EN 13319, the standard for diving gear, and is waterproof up to 100 meters underwater.
