The Apple Watch Ultra is $799 and arrives Sept. 23. It's big and full of new features.

There are some new apps for the Ultra: A new Oceanic Plus diving app is specifically made for the Watch Ultra that looks at tides and water temperature; it also records dive depths and metrics. The extra cost, however, means it won't be a watch most people opt for. The Ultra's biggest new feature, a significantly larger battery, is something the Apple Watch hasn't had since it debuted.

The new design pushes its crown and side button into an extended side part that, alongside the new watch's bigger case and curved-with-flat-display contours, make it seem more James Cameron than any previous Apple Watch.

Apple says the 60-hour option is "coming soon." Apple designed the Ultra to be more rugged so it can withstand the elements better if you take it to the mountains or deep under water. It's orange, which definitely stands out, but can be customized to launch an app when you tap it. It's twice as bright as before, so it's even easier to see outside. There's a larger crown, too, so it's easier to use while you're wearing gloves if you're diving or in the snow. It's made out of titanium.

Coming soon to Malaysia, Apple Watch Ultra is the beefiest smartwatch that the company has produced so far.

There is also the Trail Loop that is meant for endurance athletes while divers and water sport lovers might be interested in the Ocean Band.When it comes to availability in Malaysia, there is no set release date for the Apple Watch Ultra just yet. Apple pointed out that the Ultra has enough battery power for most users to complete a long-distance triathlon (known by many as the Ironman Triathlon) which includes a 3.86 km swim, 180.25 km bike ride, and 42.20 full marathon back-to-back. The Action button can also be used to start, or view Backtrack which is a function that users can use to trace back their steps if they find themselves lost during their outdoor exploration. There is also the new Action button on the left side of the watch that can be customised to activate certain functions.Among them is the Compass Waypoints which can be used to mark a location directly into the Compass app. It has also been equipped with the new Depth app that provides several important diving metrics including time, current depth, water temperature, diving duration, and max depth.To take things further, a collaboration with Huish Outdoor has led to the creation of the Oceanic+ app that transforms the Ultra into a dive computer. Made from aerospace-grade titanium, it is being accompanied by a flat sapphire crystal to help protect its Retina display that Apple claimed as the brightest in the family due to its 2,000 nits rating.With a massive on-wrist operating temperature from -20C to 55C, the Ultra has been also designed to withstand water depth of up to 100 meters.

CUPERTINO: Apple has raised the benchmark for smartwatches and entered a new territory with the introduction of the Apple Watch Ultra.

Like the iPhones, the Apple Watch Ultra is designed to minimise its impact on the environment. The Apple Watch Ultra is designed for water sports, including extreme activities like kitesurfing and wakeboarding, along with recreational scuba diving to 40 metres with the new Oceanic+ app. When using iOS and watchOS with the default two-factor authentication and a passcode, Health app data synced to iCloud is encrypted end-to-end, meaning that Apple does not have the key to decrypt the data and therefore cannot read it. Utilising a new depth gauge, Apple Watch Ultra features a Depth app designed with an intuitive user interface. Due to its size and features, the bands for the Apple Watch Ultra also get an upgrade. The Apple Watch Ultra is designed for endurance athletes or those who aspire to push beyond their limits. It can also be used to mark segments, complementing the new Track running experience, which automatically provides the ultimate pacing and distance estimates for runners at a track. The watch is powered by watchOS 9, which includes new advanced running metrics to measure performance, like Stride Length, Ground Contact Time, Vertical Oscillation, and Running Power. Apple Watch Ultra also brings three new bands — Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and Ocean Band — offering unique design features that provide a secure and comfortable fit for every adventure. The Action button in high-contrast international orange can be easily customised for instant access to a variety of features, including Workouts, Compass Waypoints, Backtrack, and more. The case rises up to surround all edges of the flat sapphire front crystal, protecting the Retina display, which is up to 2000 nits — 2x brighter than any Apple Watch display yet. For example, the customisable Action button offers instant access to a wide range of useful features.

It's already available for purchase with its straps through Apple's official website.

With a case size of 49mm, the Apple Watch Ultra is the biggest smartwatch yet from the Cupertino-based tech giant. But that doesn't mean the three bands mentioned above can't be used with some older Apple Watches since Apple says they are also compatible with Apple Watches of 44mm and 45mm case sizes. Alongside these, Apple also announced new straps for the Ultra model - Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and Ocean Band.

Here's the most rugged Apple Watch yet – the Watch Ultra has a giant 49mm titanium case, 100-metre water resistance and a customisable Action button.

As per the Watch 8, the Watch Ultra’s health tracking has been improved with the use of temperature sensors on the top and bottom of the device. Another new app, Oceanic+, incorporates a dive computer and will be available in the App Store later in the autumn. It’s billed as the biggest and toughest Apple Watch yet, and it has the specs to back it up. The watch can also leave “breadcrumbs” to allow you to trace back your steps using the Backtrack navigation function.

There’s just one Apple Watch Ultra variant available – a massive 49mm model priced at RM3,799 with cellular, making it RM500 more expensive than the priciest Apple Watch Series 8.

[Garmin](https://www.garmin.com/en-US/) and [Polar](https://www.polar.com/en). Handling the regular Watch's gentle crown while running or doing an intense workout can be a daunting task. I'm far from an "extreme" athlete, but I do my bit of outdoor workouts and swims, and I need a smartwatch that can withstand bumping into something, with large, legible letters on the display. It has to have a big display, a long-lasting battery, as well as a larger crown and button (that you can operate with gloves on) to be useful.
