Apple's rugged smartwatch for outdoor enthusiasts is making waves with two exciting developments - a significant price drop and a sleek new color option.
The Apple Watch Ultra 2, known for its durability and advanced fitness tracking capabilities, is now available for $689 on Amazon, a $110 discount from its regular $799 price tag. This 14% savings makes the high-end wearable more accessible to athletes and adventurers looking to elevate their training.
Key features of the Ultra 2 include:
- 49mm corrosion-resistant titanium case
- Water resistance up to 100 meters
- Always-On Retina display with S9 chip for enhanced brightness
- Precision dual-frequency GPS
- Built-in cellular connectivity
- Up to 36 hours of battery life (72 hours in low power mode)
For those seeking a bolder aesthetic, Apple has also announced a new Black Titanium finish for the Watch Ultra 2. This matte black option joins the existing Natural titanium color, offering users more style choices without any price premium.
The Black Titanium variant is available for pre-order now and will officially launch on September 20th. It maintains the same $799.99 price point as the original colorway.
Both color options of the Apple Watch Ultra 2 will soon gain new capabilities, including:
- Sleep apnea detection
- A dedicated Tides app
- Offline maps
- Enhancements to the Training Load feature
Whether you opt for the discounted model or the striking new black finish, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 continues to position itself as a top contender in the premium smartwatch market, especially for outdoor and fitness enthusiasts.
