      Hey @mark. Apple watch Ultra, why, honestly, it does everything I need it to and, as you wisely say, I and the whole family are immersed in the Appleverse, how and what could I wear as alternative, I don't believe there truly is one available for someone like me, a truly committed Apple user across all formats and products.

      My Apple Watch 4 cellular, stainless steel is my current watch of choice. Although it has now been abandoned by Apple (WatchOS-wise). It still works! My previous Apple Watch was the Apple Watch 0. It came out before Apple updated it and called it the Apple Watch 1. It literally was falling apart when I updated to the 4.

      Pixel watch 3 (the large one.) I'm very active and the Fitbit integration is the best I've used for tracking things. Not a fan of charging it once a day but small price to pay. I'm currently using the 9 pro fold and having the pixel watch as a viewfinder/camera timer on a device that itself is adjustable as a tripod has made this quite the companion piece.

    I just got my series 10 yesterday, upgrading from a series 4. As I use my Apple Watch as my alarm clock, it would be great if it had the battery life of the ultra. But I just have it in my routine to charge it for about 3/4 of an hour in the morning and about an hour in the evening and that is enough. And that’s with the battery health of my series 4 at 78%! So definitely not a deal breaker for me. I’m glad I waited, the series 10 is such an improvement for me! (Of everything : screen real estate, « zyppyness », watch faces, etc).

      Honestly the simple way to see it: if you don’t care about longer battery life and you aren’t into sports then the series 10 should be better situation because it’s way more comfortable and probably the most comfortable smartwatch. For me the action button should be standard in every Apple Watch and the big missed on the series 10

    I've had an iPhone (and iPads) for about 15 years so Apple invested.
    Until about a month ago my watch was a Galaxy Watch 3 - yes, the integration with my phone was basic (at best) but i liked how it looked better than the Apple offering.
    Sadly, the display was faltering and since Galaxy and Apple no longer played ball to any level after Watch 3 I was forced to look at alternatives.
    I went Apple Watch 10.
    What a revelation - it's a great piece of wearable kit and, as you pointed out, is seamless in terms of "it just works".
    Battery is a gripe but it charges fully in the duration of the morning wash & dress so that's become the routine now.

    I’ve been an Apple user for the last 10 years and absolutely nothing has ever come close to the operating system. Sure there are far better phones watches tablets speakers earphones out there, but in the end Apple always wins because of that eco system you talk about, because of that operating system that’s second to none and everyone try’s to copy. In the end all you get is better battery life, better screen, better AI better camera from other products, but it’s all full of bloatware and an operating system (android) or less, that’s absolutely buggy laggy and just not worth it.
    In my opinion, Apple don’t make the latest and greatest products, they just make top shelf products that work well.

    Picked up an s10 to go with my 16pm. Coming from an s23u with a galaxy watch 4 classic. I’ve loved my Apple Watch. No issues with battery life, I wear it about 24 hrs, charge it for 30 mins before bed and I’m good. My watch 4 was super slow, it was better when I got it but honestly no where near as smooth as my Apple Watch, and it slowed down pretty quick I found. I’ve also found my AW more intuitive with its apps and integration to my phone. Again this is coming from a long time android user. Obviously in the end both brands have their pros and cons. I’ve enjoyed the switch though.

Was going to go ultra but with no ultra update and everything I needed in the series 10 I thought why not make the saving generally as good as it needs to be. Have to say the battery is ok and fast charging good but I’m having to quickly charge daily since I got it

    It’s interesting that you pointed out how previous Apple Watches would “bulge” off the skin. One of the things I noticed as well is how flush the Apple Watch sits on your wrist. It doesn’t seem that much slimmer, but it actually has a much nicer fit on the wrist than older Apple Watches.
    The display really pops off axis - so Apple was not exaggerating that off axis viewing. Even though the S10 doesn’t have the best battery life, I do appreciate how insanely quick it charges. All that said, I still wonder if I want to return it for an AW Ultra. I’m really on the fence. My biggest gripes are the durability vs the AW Ultra and the battery life of the Ultra. I wish Apple would maybe redesign the regular watches with a boxy style like their phones that prevents the watch face from constantly being exposed.
    All in all, the S10 is really a very nice watch. The biggest problem with the S10 is how good the AW Ultra is😂

    Apple products keep value. I sold my apple watch s7 GPS only, alum. ( 3 years old, 81% left battery life) for 160 eur. Which is 1/3 of the price that i paid for it 3 years ago. Charging it every day is a lit bit annoying but one gets used to it. If you need 2 days battery life, disable most of its features but this is pointless. Charging for abt 30min every day is enough. Apple watch s10 is amazing - slim, fast charging, beautiful & bright OLED, no bugs, great sound, excellent mic, perfect SMART device /PC on your wrist.

    Several times I went to the Apple website to configure and buy either a series 10 apple watch or the ultra 2. Each time I ended up not buying once apple care+ and sales taxes are added. Not just because of the high price, but mainly that at the end of the day, the battery life is not that much better than my current Series 5 Apple watch which only gets a $70 trade in value -- I would still need to charge the watch every day and don't see the capabilities as that much better. I use the watch mainly during my gym workouts and outdoor walking and running, which are activities that drain the batteries on any of these watches. Will wait until battery life improves to 2+ days (yes, I know ultra 2 can go 36+ hours, but that's still basically every day with heavy usage) and or the watch can do Apple Intelligence with some actual real world benefits.

  • @robsawalker
    @robsawalker Месяц назад +1

    I love my Ultra but I no longer use it regularly for a couple of reasons; when running it loses my HR (my AW7 never did this), it has estimated my VO2 Max as about 60% of what it actually is, and it gets my deep sleep readings wrong consistently. So now I wear my Pixel Watch 3 which does none of these things. BUT I still have to wear my Ultra to do my Apple fitness workouts - what a pain. And I wish the PW3 had sapphire and titanium case.
    Basically the Ultra lets me down in all the most important things I need it for and a normal AW which is 1mm thinner with a 1mm wider screen isn't going to do it for me. More battery please Apple! I would get a Huawei but no tap to pay is a massive dealbreaker for me sadly.

    It's always been clear to me that the ecosystem is the product. a watch or a phone are components that you can add or not. So am not surprised that you came back to the Apple Watch even though other watches have great points to them. There's no Android ecosystem but rather a field where you will find some things better than in Apple's ecosystem but to get there and stay there you have to cross muddy fields, road signs that are incorrect and people shooting at you with paint balls. Android's philosophy clearly has a role to play as there are many who don't want an ecosystem but want single focus products. I like Apple a lot but wish there was a competitor in the ecosystem field.

    Having recently moved from having a new pixel phone every year to the iPhone 15 PM this year, I was initially disappointed, I thought it was turd. However, now I own a Macbook Pro, iPad Pro, Earbuds Pro 2 and it all makes sense, together they work flawlessly, yeah I miss the odd Pixel thing, but overall I see the Apple Eco System attraction, but the battery life on ALL their watches is just not good enough compared to the Garmin Fenix series I've owned, and my current Epix Gen 2, I would love to try one out, but the battery limitations are a serious barrier, although the Ultra's do look cool.

    I wear an Apple SE, use it mainly for tennis, swimmimg, sleep and other. Battery life maybe 2 days max. BUT. I had the Huawey GT2 or what's the name. Way bigger, nicer, but more prone to scratches during tennis and swimming. Couldn't really sleep with it on my wrist. Not to mention that lots of features were passively "working" but not really working. Then don't get me started on connection issues. But I think that's where the battery from Apple goes to: maintain and make sure all works as needed.
    So, Apple until something else gets it at least as good, except the battery life.

    love your analogy about the awkward drink with an old friend bit - totally get this. I have the Series4 and part of me is nagging me to upgrade and part of me is nagging me to wait. But, wait for what? Apple has had ample time to develop a glucose option - which I am certain many were hoping for (or maybe not) - certainly investors. This probably didn't happen because this option would certainly dig into Dexcom's profits. Like others I was a tad disappointed with the Series 10. I have been eyeing the Black Titanium Case - Ultra2; some serious coin - but maybe something I will appreciate wearing. Your review, does help to push me off the fence.

      Totally fair point. The only thing I'd say is that when you experience what other smartwatches are capable of, it really does make you question why the Apple Watch can't achieve the same battery life.

    I agree on the Eco-system. But why, why, why, doesn't Apple look into Solar Power watches? Even Casio has a G-Shock solar power smart watch - ok it is big on the wrist, but can go for days, or if you turn off some of the smarts, weeks without a charge. When, if ever, will Apple look into Solar? They say they are Eco-friendly, well, you can't get more eco-friendly thank solar. Even in the UK, solar can help keep a charge rather than ignore it. I tried the G-Shock, and even though it was large on me, I liked it, but doesn't communicate with all the Apple stuff. It even has its own Heath app, why not link to Apple? Grrr...

    Mark, great review as always, but one thing like another commenter has commented what’s with the battery charging thing, surely if you are within the
    Vicinity of a charger you will put the watch it,
    To me that would be just l standing next to a garbage bin, but dropping your rubbish on the ground all because you were too lazy or couldn’t be bothered to either walk over to the bin or reach out to put it in.
    If the bin is there surely you would put the your rubbish in, simply put if the charger is there put it in the charger, just my thoughts, great review nonetheless.
    Keep up the good work, at least you say what you think.

      If you have a dual phone Magsafe/Watch charger it reduces the pain point of charging considerably. Belkin has some good (but expensive) ones, and ESR/Anker some cheaper ones.
      I agree..just plop it on there when I take a shower etc no problem at all. Everyone charges their phone daily, so once you are in the habit it is not a major problem.

    We have to remember that style and looks is subjective. For instance I think the Samsung Ultra looks terrible. It is far more helpful if instead of saying something looks better, a reviewer discusses the differences in design choices. Offering your thoughts on those choices and how those choices may or may nor meet the needs of different kinds of consumers is more useful to the folks watching.

      It's not that, I don't mind one day battery but as the battery degrades those hours decrease and eventually you're charging two three times a day.
      By having a better battery to begin with it takes the edge off some of that decline.

    • @Roberob1189
      @Roberob1189 Месяц назад

      @@charlotteritchie9969 idk about that. I always get a new iPhone and watch every year. Until 3 years ago. I kept the series 7 because I didn’t want the 8, but then they took away the blood oxygen. So I keep the 7. I’ve had it since the day it came out. I actually use the watch. I can go 30-32 hours is before it dies. Battery degradation for Apple Watch isn’t like iPhone/phone battery degradation. In fact I don’t get or understand how anyone has the complaints they have. My iPhone is used 14-16 hours a day between personal and work. I’ve never had a single issue. I trade my phone in every September/october-ish and it has around 92-95% battery health. I think the problem is people don’t treat their products right, they treat it like it’s disposable.

    I use two watches (frankly one older and one newer model I bought two years after the first watches) and since that time I don’t have a charging problem at all. Once I am woken up I just put the one I slept with on charger and wear the freshly charged watches. Apple automatically switches between them and synchronizes all my steps, calories, sleep data etc. it’s extremely convenient.

Google AI smashes Apple out of the park, and while the ecosystem isnt as polished as Apple, it's getting better. The main benefit is that it showed me changing ecosystems isnt nearly as difficult as it seems, but as a comsumer, it's necessary to challenge the norm. Now, what to do about my MacBook Pro M3.......

Then I finally got my first iPhone 2 years ago after not liking the huge square shape of the new Samsung galaxy. I was switched. I fell in love with the camera, the way images transfer better into apps, the screen, the size, the layout. I don’t know what it is. I feel brainwashed lol because I don’t know why it sucked me in. Then i tried AirPods, LOVED them, I do have Samsung headphones though. I have a MacBook and now understand how everything flows so nicely together.

    Nicely done. I find Apple to have become a bit boring of recent. Yes the ecosystem is nice but I am making other choices now. Also, I would stop short of calling a smartwatch a "timepiece". It is a small mobile phone on your wrist that is forced to be linked to your purchase of a phone. Redundant in some ways, no?

    Just found you for the first time Mark, excellent breakdown of Smart watches. At 10:58 you hit the nail on the head so to speak with me. As I am definitely an Apple iPhone/Mac person and bought my first smart watch as the Series 10- 46mm in Natural Titanium last month. Like you said these 2 Apple devices dovetail each other perfectly, plus I have not regretted for one moment splashing out for it. The daily charging in my opinion is no big deal, it's a fast charge and I like to use it to track my sleep. I was worried I would feel the watch on my wrist whilst in bed, but that's not the case.
