Same; anyone think that either the new black version, the absence of a 3 this year, or Black Friday will yield some deals?
Economy is shrinking, retail had the slowest growth since 2011 and the holiday season sales are expected to be particularly week. There will be a lot of deals for non-essential goods. Source: various financial reports.

Hasn't it been this price for like 3 weeks now?

I expect it to go lower by another 50 in November
ya it's been this price at least since a few days before the keynote when i checked. i'm also waiting out, since it's been lower before. but i might get impatient and just get a series 10 instead. it's a hard choice tbh

Quote from Jean1989 :
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.
In the same boat with my Ultra 1, i'll wait to on the Ultra 3 and if it'll come in Black

Love this thing. My first smart watch period. Prior to the AWU2, I was wearing Fitbit and Gshock. No comparison. Excellent functionality and what seems like infinite useability. Nice range of accessories and bands. There is nothing like it.

I have a Garmin and I just got a stainless steel Watch 8. I used Garmin for my main watch for more than 6 years and I would continue to use it. I also have a number of nice collectible analog watches which I never bother to wear because I need notification ability for my work apps. The ONLY reason I got the Apple is because my wife wants something elegant for when I'm dressed up.
For a sport watch Garmin is pretty competent - at least a month of battery, pulse oxy sensor, solar. I vacation travel with it without needing a charge cable. I think these three are a MUST in any sport watch and Apple Ultra is nowhere near that. For the same price as the latest Garmin Fenix line, Ultra just doesn't make sense.
Otherwise, for simplicity, software integration and as an elegant accessory/jewelry - the regular iWatch is a nice addon. It's cons is the super annoyingly short battery life. Without an oxy sensor it is almost useless for a sport watch though.

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.
excellent valid points

I was going back and forth. I ended up with a mint 1 for $380. The 2-300 hundred more just isn't worth it. The sleep apnea would be nice but I think it's weird that one sensor that would help with that is not on the new watches.

I recently got the stainless steel Apple Watch Series 8 deal for $299. Haven't opened it yet, and would like any insights from this group whether I should just get in on this Ultra 2 deal instead. I'm pretty much conflicted on the value vs having the latest tech.

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.
This, 100%. It seems so many Apple threads have that one down-voter guy.

I got in on that same Stainless Steel Series 8 deal from Walmart, and have not opened mine either. I am waiting til the last few days of its return period, to see if any similar fire-sale deals on the Series 9 come out in the interim. If not, I'll open it in the last few days, see if the watch charges up/battery is fine, and go from there. I plan on keeping it, as $299 for a recent stainless steel LTE watch with the oxygen sensor intact is too good to return.
