It’s not just iPhones in the worst experiences!
Since its announcement a few weeks ago, Apple has clarified that its new Apple Watch Ultra It was designed for users with specific extreme sports requirements.
Although it is clear that the above is not a limitation so that other users can acquire it, it justifies many features of its design, such as its large size, for example. But even knowing that there are users who decided to acquire it and simply change what they considered less convenient.
With the start of shipments of the Apple Watch Ultra, users wasted no time tearing down, analyzing and even customizing the latest member of the company’s smartwatch family.
One of the most controversial interventions was carried out by the user identified in a Mac Rumors forum as perezr10, who through this social network shared the transformation of the device.
The Apple Watch Ultra suffered because of this user
Modified Apple Watch Ultra
According to perezr10, the Apple Watch Ultra was not practical for his daily life. The main features that oppose its purpose are the “height”, the shape of the crown guard, the holes everywhere, the orange button and the finish that looked like Starlight aluminum
Using a power drill, this user began making two key visual changes to the Apple Watch Ultra. First removed the high contrast “international orange” color overlay on the action button. After, removed titanium case from Apple Watch Ultramoving away from the uniform polishing effect of the original device.
Apple Watch Ultra versus Apple Watch Series 5.
With these changes, the end result resembles the finish of some Apple Watch Edition modelswhich were available in brushed titanium with Series 5, 6, and 7, which Apple discontinued with the release of the Apple Watch Ultra.
No doubts, the end result may be controversial to some, and its creator knows it. He even shared the transformation process with the following message:
It might not be to everyone’s taste, but I have to say I really like my Ultra after this. I won’t wear it with a suit yet, but now I’m more likely to wear it when I go out and walk around town in jeans.
Interfering with Apple devices is nothing new. But usually it is usually made to incorporate a component that many users want and with which Apple has not pleased us yet, but never to leave it worse than its original state. What is your opinion on this?
