Should have in description it's a series one not the current version. While there's not much difference. There are some new features that people might want, for example the New sleep apnea upgrade

Another "used" term nonsense - "Renewed Premium". Greedy companies decided to make easy money and invented nice terms "Renewed" and "Refurbished" so they could sell used items like they are not.
PS, there was a sale of new "Ultra 2" model for about 550 which is much better deal.

It's perfectly described already. If it doesn't say "2" then its the first gen dumbo.

This one does have the Pulse Oximetry enabled, which is disabled on the 2 in the US due to a lawsuit.

I was late to this deal and purchased a week ago at $499. The first watch that came had a scratch and a scrape on the bezel. I returned it because it didn't meet "premium renewed" in my mind. I decided to try again and the 2nd one I ordered was perfect and had 100% battery health. The price dropped back to $449 and I just chatted with CS and they gave me a refund for the price difference. Overall very happy and a huge upgrade from my series 4.

There always seems to be "There's a better deal" post in the replies, with no link and zero information of where the supposed deal is. It doesn't seem to be on SlickDeals, that's for sure. Search "apple watch" and sort by New. I see no $550 deals on new an Ultra.

That's about as helpful as the "I got it for X price 5 years ago!" replies.

Your reply is obviously an attempt to help OP.
Oh, a deal from 5 months ago. How helpful for people looking for a watch today. My post wasn't an attempt to help anyone. Just like your posts didn't help anyone. Posting about expired deals is absolutely useless. Thanks for nothing, chief.

Believe the Ultra has the Blood oxygen but I heard that apple removed the app in new WatchOS 11 upgrade because of licensing issues. Can anybody confirm.

The Ultra 2 you get sleep apnea and no blood oxygen.

If you get the Apple Watch Series 9 you get both the blood oxygen & sleep apnea (again i heard Apple remove the Blood Oxygen App with the WatchOS 11 upgrade).

WatchOS 11 seems more of a downgrade if Apple removed the Blood Oxygen App.
It's not based on WatchOS update, it is based on device activation date. Thus there are people specifically seeking renewed Apple Watch as they maybe activated before Jan this year, so the watch will always have the feature.

Refurbished. You can get a new one for this price.
Renewed Premium (even Excellent-Good) usually means that you actually get a new one that was likely returned. So open box. Good deal imo and Amazon is great with returns, so you can return it if its not that great.

I think this is a good price. I just want to comment that that is my least favorite of the Apple Bands. I think, unless you are swimming or want to wear it in the shower, either of the Loops are a better bet. I'm partial to the Alpine Loop with the hook, but the velcro loop is thinner still and equally comfortable. If you search other listings you may be able to find one with a band more to your liking.

Also buy a good case for it too. It gets scratched easily. I stick with the stainless steel ones. I think the new Ultra 2 black one has a grade 5 titanium which doesn't scratch as much.
Had mine for over a year with daily wear and it still looks new. I work on my cars with it on and not a single scratch.

One of eBay's refurbished approved sellers has the ultra 2 for 539. It's ymmv but people including myself have been receiving targeting offers for another 10-20% off. I wound up getting the ultra 2 for 431+tax. Has the Apple warranty through July of 2025, 100% battery health. May be worth looking into.

It's not the ACTIVATION date, but the model number that determines whether or not O2 is enabled. The latest Ultra2 release is definitely disabled, but only in USA.

"the ability to measure blood oxygen is no longer available on Apple Watch units sold by Apple in the United States after January 18, 2024. These are indicated with part numbers ending in LW/A." The ones ending in LL/A should be good.

Refurbished isn't a new term.
