Apple has primarily refreshed its Apple Watch Ultra 2 with a new black titanium frame and a few new software-based features.
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 remains the high-end smartwatch in Apple's lineup and the best Apple Watch for fitness tracking and outdoor activities.
The watchOS 11 update adds even more features now like Sleep Apnea detection and media playback from the dual built-in speakers.
The Ultra 2's new black titanium frame is the only design change relative to the Apple Watch Ultra's initial iterations.
It offers more advanced features over the original Ultra, including a faster processor, Double Tap Gesture for enhanced control and accessibility.
The Ultra 2 is designed to be worn in harsh environments and has a rugged titanium case that makes it tougher than other current Apple Watches with aluminum frames.
The Ultra 2's S9 chip powers newer features that the Ultra 1 doesn't support and the Double Tap Gesture feature allows users to interact with the central button in an app.
The Ultra 2 offers accurate fitness tracking, quick-syncing GPS, and a durable, rugged design. It is the top fitness tracker in Apple's current lineup.
The Ultra 2 has the brightest screen out of all the Apple Watches, reaching a maximum brightness of 3,000 nits.
The battery life of the Ultra 2 is still one of its highlights, lasting longer than 36 hours on a single charge.
