A discounted Apple product, even before it hits the market? Not in a million years. Great deal on this model, though.
Best Buy is discounting the black one for members.

Same; anyone think that either the new black version, the absence of a 3 this year, or Black Friday will yield some deals?
I 100% think we will get some deals since it isn't a new model. I was definitely going to get an Ultra 3 this year, but now I'm either going to wait for next year or grab one of these (normal titanium finish) at discount before then. My series 7 stainless will easily last another year if it needs to.

Same position with a Garmin. It's a bummer it doesn't even have a feature my current watch has (pulse ox) and is a year old now with Apple still asking full price. Plus the trade in value sucks; a 2 year old Ultra 1 sold for $800 fetches $290, a $510 loss. I imagine trading in an Ultra 2 next year would be about the same. A year is a long time to wait though for pulse ox and micro LED and whatever they're going to put in it. I'm thinking it's probably the better call to wait unless a really good deal can be had on the Ultra 2…. Plus the just-released series 10 now has a better chip than the much more expensive Ultra 2! It was poor form IMO to release that, not release a new Ultra, and still not drop the price.

The ultra 2 has one. Unless I'm mistaken it was only the 10 that was left out.

I'm wrong. 9 and up including the ultra 2.

Some idiot is on a downvote spree here, especially in the comment section.

I would imagine they're an Android fan/Apple hater. It's sad that some people really can't bring objectivity to the table-ruin it for the rest of us.

It doesn't bother me personally but I see some valuable comments being voted unhelpful and wanted to provide encouragement for community members. Don't let haters discourage you from sharing your opinions and thoughts.

Quote from SD1085 :
I've been looking at this and trying to decide if it's likely to go any lower in the next couple months…
I have the Ultra 1 and absolutely love it, and I don't see a need to upgrade to a Ultra 2 or the new black one and I want to upgrade but there hasn't been much improvement or new features to justify the cost difference of a Ultra 1 vs Ultra 2 IMO. You are likely to get better deals especially if you are willing to go refurbished/renewed or used. (Ultra 1 Renewed is $499 on Amazon right now)

The main new features you get with Ultra 2 are:
  • Double tap gesture support
  • On-device Siri with health access
  • Precision finding for iPhone

Hardware differences on the Ultra 2 vs. 1
  • 1000 extra nits brightness on the Ultra 2
  • S9 Chip (vs S8 on Ultra 1)
  • 64gb storage (vs 32gb on Ultra 1)
  • Gen 2 Ultra Wide-band chip (gen 1 on Ultra 1)
  • 72 hours of battery life in low power mode (vs 60 on Ultra 1)
  • Ultra 1 would have Blood Oxygen if made and not refurbished before 2024 (from my understanding)
Not a noticeable difference in any way to 99% of users.

Coming from my SS series 4 that can't make it past about 6pm anymore…I think I'm jumping in finally. With no 3 announced, I just can't wait another year. Been hoarding Amazon gift cards, I think it's time to redeem them.

Plus, I don't want black anyway for my watch. $110 off the color I prefer works for me.

Some Ultra 2s do have the sensor. For instance you can still get them new from Costco with the sensor for $100 more - https://www.costco.com/apple-watc...18736.html. If the MPN ends in LL/A it has it enabled, LW/A it doesnt.

Personally I just went the used route. Found one with the sensor and 100% battery in good condition and saved a couple hundred bucks

I picked one up that was a credit return. 11 months left on the warranty and looks brand new. I didn't like the loop band and went back to my Nike sport band.

Accurate but just one more thing - sleep apnea detection is now coming to Ultra 2 and not Ultra 1. If you're looking at the used market, Ultra 2 has come down enough I think it's rarely worth picking an Ultra 1 over it that will also tend to have less battery health left. But certainly worth considering for a better deal.
