Heads up for the Natural/Alpine Loop, this deal is only for Large band size; the Medium is Refurbished for the same price. Almost didn't realize till I got to check out.
Apple Watch Ultra 2 stands out for its long battery life, rugged titanium build, and outdoor-friendly extras like the side action button, loud siren, and larger watch faces. It also handles workouts, calls, texts, calendar items, nightstand mode, and Apple Music streaming over cellular without an iPhone when paired with a plan and subscription. The main drawbacks are its thick, heavy size and the need to watch band sizing, since the Natural and Alpine Loop deal was limited to Large. Best Buy returns may also carry a $45 restocking fee.
Big-wristed buyers who want a rugged-looking smartwatch, because the larger case feels comfortable on bigger arms and looks oversized on smaller ones.
Frequent exercisers who want all-day battery life, because the watch can last several days on a charge and handles workouts, calls, and texts in a pinch.
Outdoor users who want a quick-access action button and loud emergency alert, because the side button starts actions fast and the siren is easy to hear when lost.
The Ultra 2 adds a dedicated side button for quick actions, a loud siren, and larger watch faces with more information. It is also described as having a very scratch-resistant screen and a thick, heavy build.
The Ultra 2 is described as lasting several days on a charge, while regular Apple Watch models may barely last a full day. That longer battery life is one of the main reasons shoppers choose the Ultra line.
Yes. The Natural/Alpine Loop version is listed at the deal price only in Large; Medium shows as refurbished for the same price. Check the band size at checkout so you do not accidentally land on the refurbished listing.
Yes, with a cellular plan and an Apple Music subscription, it can stream Apple Music without an iPhone nearby and show calendar items. It also supports nightstand mode and wake-up alarms.
This was going to be my question. I got a 10 46 like new for $220 around BF and whiffed on some ultra 2 deals. Since its software is the same, is it only battery life really that is the difference? What else would I be missing
Besides the longer battery, it has a dedicate button on the side to start quickly an action, has a loud siren in case you got lost, has another watchfaces that show more info and bigger size, but for me its the screen, is almost indestructible, it resist all sort of scratches and small bumps.
I don't like screen protectors on the apple watch screen, it doesnt stay for more than two months, because the round edges and I swim regularly.
