Apple Watch Ultra 3: The Ultimate Frontier of Adventure and Performance.

Pushing the boundaries of what a sports watch can be, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is engineered for the most extreme conditions, the longest expeditions, and the most demanding athletes. It builds upon the rugged foundation of its predecessor with groundbreaking new health sensors, enhanced battery intelligence, and a brighter, more versatile display, solidifying its position as the most powerful and capable smartwatch in the world.

Revolutionary New Health and Wellness Sensors

The Ultra 3 introduces the most significant health monitoring upgrade since the original Apple Watch.

• Blood Pressure Monitoring: Using an advanced sensor array and innovative algorithms, the Ultra 3 provides blood pressure trends and notifications. While not a medical-grade diagnostic tool, it offers invaluable insights into your cardiovascular wellness over time, alerting you to potential hypertension.

• Sleep Apnea Detection: By analyzing sleep patterns, blood oxygen levels, and respiratory rate through its advanced sensors, the Ultra 3 can assess the likelihood of sleep apnea. This provides users with critical information to discuss with their healthcare providers.

• Enhanced Temperature Sensing: Building on the existing temperature sensor used for cycle tracking and retrospective ovulation estimates, the Ultra 3 offers more precise, real-time body temperature monitoring, useful for athletes tracking recovery and anyone monitoring for feverish conditions.

Unmatched Battery Life with Intelligent Adaptive Power

The Ultra 3 redefines endurance, ensuring it lasts as long as your adventures.

• Intelligent Battery System: A new low-power mode dynamically manages performance and connectivity based on your activity. For multi-day expeditions, a new "Expedition Max" mode can extend battery life to an unprecedented 5-7 days by prioritizing only essential functions.

• Faster Charging: Get from zero to a full day's charge in under 15 minutes, perfect for topping up during short breaks.

Brighter, Smarter Always-On Display

• Peak Brightness of 4,000 Nits: Doubling the brightness of the previous model, the new MicroLED display (rumored) is easily readable in the most direct sunlight, like on a high-altitude glacier or open water. It's also more power-efficient, contributing to the extended battery life.

• Customizable Action Button: The Action Button is now even more versatile, with context-aware functions that change based on your activity (e.g., starting a dive during a swim workout, or marking a waypoint during a hike).

Advanced Dive and Exploration Features

• Depth Gauge and Dive Computer Enhancements: Offers even more detailed metrics for technical divers, including advanced gas mixture support and decompression calculations.

• New "Backtrack" with Route Import: The enhanced Compass app allows you to pre-load routes for hiking or off-roading, with haptic alerts if you deviate from your planned path.

Next-Generation Performance with the S10 SiP

• New S10 System-in-Package (SiP): Provides a significant boost in processing power and machine learning capabilities, enabling faster app launches, smoother map rendering, and the complex computations required for the new health sensors.

• Dual-Frequency GPS (L1 + L5): Delivers the most accurate GPS and route tracking ever on an Apple Watch, crucial for precision sports like trail running and orienteering.

Rugged Titanium Design

• Aerospace-Grade Titanium: Retains the iconic rugged, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant case.

• New "Oceanic" and "Alpine" Band Colors: Introduces new band options specifically designed for water sports and mountain adventures, with enhanced durability and comfort.
