When will the Apple Watch Ultra 2 be released?
The first Apple Watch Ultra came out on September 22, 2022. Of course, Apple can release a successor as early as 2023, but 2024 would also be conceivable.
How much does the Apple Watch Ultra 2 cost?
At 999 dollars, the first model is the most expensive watch among the Apple Watches currently sold by Apple. If the Galaxy Watch Ultra becomes a new series in the portfolio from California, then it will probably stay that way. Whether Apple wants to continue scratching the 1000 euro mark or whether the price will continue to rise remains to be seen.
With which devices will the smartwatch be usable?
Apple products arrange themselves in a large, closed ecosystem. In addition to the advantages that such a decision brings, it ensures that the devices work best or only with other Apple products. The Apple Watches have been no exception until now and it is not very likely that this will change with an Apple Watch Ultra 2. You should therefore have an iPhone.
Which versions will there be?
Many Apple Watch models are sold in two versions. One version can only use GPS, the other even with mobile communications. This does not apply to the Apple Watch Ultra. The only version can do both GPS and Cellular.

Display
The predecessor is already known for a scratch-resistant display. The new Apple Watch Ultra 2 could reportedly get a 10 percent larger display. In addition, Apple may be using miniLED, which consumes less power than the OLED technology currently in use.
Health and Safety Features
The first Apple Watch Ultra can provide a lot of health data. This includes, among other things, the possibility of determining blood oxygen levels. It can also provide retrospective ovulation estimates, EKG and heart rate, heart rhythm and sleep phase information. In addition, it can be taken to the dive computer and up to 100 meters deep.
In addition to noise monitoring, accident detection and emergency calls anywhere in the world, the first Apple Watch Ultra has an integrated siren that can be heard up to 180 meters away. It also has a flashlight as an outdoor watch. It is possible that Apple will keep the existing features here and only add them. In any case, it should be almost certain that the Apple Watch Ultra 2, even if it is advertised as an outdoor watch, can measure health data and has built-in security solutions.
Weight
Apple is rumored to be working on reducing the weight of the Apple Watch Ultra 2. The current model weighs significantly more than the regular variants. Especially in sports, where every gram counts, this could be a real advantage.
Note: This constantly updated article is based on leaks, analyst statements, editorial assessments and rumors, the veracity of which is difficult for us to verify from a distance. Until the formal presentation of the Apple Watch Ultra 2, you should therefore view the information with a certain skepticism.
