Apple Watch Ultra Review: Worth It Or Nah?

This watch has an absolutely enormous pull for me as an astronomer. It has a red filter for the display, which is absolutely crucial for astronomy to protect night vision. My current Apple Watch, if I accidentally tilt my wrist, kills my night vision. However, the biggest reason is the waypoint markers. Often us astronomers need to travel far and to remote locations to find darker skies. My closest dark sky area is BEAUTIFUL, but has absolutely zero signal of any degree and can be pretty easy to get lost. Something like the waypoint markers (if accurate and reliable) would massively increase my confidence and enjoyment traveling to remote sites and further my enjoyment of astronomy.

As a person that works in construction, and also wears an Apple Watch every day while working I decided to upgrade from my series 5 to this. Will I ever use the marathon, the hiking or the diving features probably not. But the ruggedness, the battery life, the bright screen, and how big it is all speak to my needs. Keep up the good reviews MKBHD. 👍🏽

Those intros never feel bored.😍 Hats off to the MKBHD editors

You've missed out people who work in construction, like me! A more rugged Apple Watch with a bigger battery is hugely useful to me, which is why I ordered one.

The quality of editing in these videos improves every single time, and with such little time between each one!

It seems no matter how crazy a tech can be thrown at mkbhd, he’ll always gonna go back at it with a “pretty good”

As a longtime fan, I think the success of this channel lies in empathy: understanding that every product has a specific user in mind, and that different products make sense in different contexts for different people.

I really thought the Apple Watch was unnecessary at first but now after owning one I realized it is actually an extremely helpful and practical tool

The Apple Watch Ultra has a very specific target audience, it’s great if you’re a pro athlete, but someone like me who’d never need any of these features… still wants it.

The reviews and the visuals to go along with them are always awesome. Appreciate Marques and the team
