The Watch Series 9 and Watch Ultra 2 made its official debut during Apple's September event, bringing exciting changes like a new and more powerful S9 SiP, UWB, and more. While the overall design of the beefier Apple Watch Ultra 2 remains the same, Apple did make some improvements, like delivering a brighter screen that can crank up to 3000 nits of brightness when needed.

The watch can also drop to as low as 1 nit of brightness, making the screen easier on the eyes in low light scenarios. In addition to the new hardware, the Watch Ultra 2 also brings a new experience with watchOS 10 adding new features like Smart Stack, Name Drop, and even a new watch face called Modular Ultra. Perhaps the most surprising feature that made its debut however is the watch's new Double Tap gesture that will allow users to interact with the watch just by tapping their index and thumb together.

When it comes to the size of the watch, you're getting the same dimensions as last year's model coming in at 49mm. As far as pricing goes, there's only model, which is priced at $749. However, when choosing your Apple Watch Ultra 2, you will have the ability to spruce up its look by choosing a watch band that suits your preference. If you've been eyeing an absolute beast of a smartwatch, right now is the perfect time to buy.
