Apple Watch Ultra Introduction
Apple’s smartwatch line Apple Watch has been released for some years, and the eighth generation was officially unveiled last night, but this time, Apple has also launched a new top-of-the-line Apple Watch Ultra for professionals.
From the name, it is easy to see the positioning of Apple for this smartwatch. It uses a 49mm titanium case design, sapphire glass mirror, support for 100 meters waterproof, IP6X level dust proof. The front is a flat screen with a peak brightness of up to 2,000 units, twice that of any other Apple Watch, and the dial is still clear in direct sunlight.
Apple Watch Ultra can withstand extreme environments, from snowy mountains at -20°C to blazing deserts at 55°C. The Apple Watch Ultra has been certified to MIL-STD 810H standards.
The watch is also equipped with a new physical button, a key geek quickly operates the functions, but is also customisable, use it to control physical training, sign compass, or start diving, with unlimited potential.
The side of the dial also incorporates a siren design that can emit a sound of 86 decibels to call for help and can be heard up to 180 meters or within 600 feet. The maximum battery life is 36 hours and up to 60 hours on a low power mode.
The new Apple Watch Ultra is focused on athletic health with enhanced high-intensity features such as hiking and swim tracking. Apple Watch Ultra is designed for water sports, including extreme sports like kitesurfing and wakeboarding, and facilitates recreational scuba diving at depths up to 40 meters with the new Oceanic+ app.
To support these underwater adventures, Apple Watch Ultra is WR100 certified. Apple Watch Ultra is also EN13319 certified, an internationally accepted standard for testing dive instruments such as depth gauges that are trusted by recreational scuba divers around the world.
According to Apple’s website, the watch measures 49 × 44 × 14.4 mm and weighs 61.3 grams. The Apple Watch Series 8 is only 10.7mm thick. The good thing about getting heavier and thicker is.
The pinnacle of Apple’s Watch product line, the Apple Watch Ultra is priced at INR 89,900 in India, with many options to choose from, like Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and Ocean Band.
