It features a larger and brighter display, an extended 42-hour battery life, and for the first time on an Apple Watch, satellite connectivity. The larger display incorporates Apple’s most advanced display technology with LTPO3 and wide-angle OLEDs. LTPO3 tech is more power efficient and enables a faster refresh rate when the watch is in always-on mode. It goes from once a minute to once a second, which makes noticing a ticking second's hand without raising the wrist possible. Like the Series 11, the Ultra 3 supports 5G, hypertension detection, sleep score analysis, and introduces new watch faces including Flow and Exactograph. Exclusive to the Ultra is the Waypoint watch face and satellite-enabled features like Emergency SOS (free for two years), as well as Messages and Find My via satellite (with an active cellular plan).
