Unlocking Brilliance: Apple Watch Latest Features & Comparison 2024
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 was announced earlier this month, with the iPhone 15 range of devices. The company’s latest luxury smartwatch includes a few hardware advancements over last year’s Apple Watch Ultra, the company’s first smartwatch with a 49mm display and titanium body. These include a new CPU, which is also featured in the Apple Watch Series 9 model. Wearers will also be able to manage the smartwatch using a double tap gesture, which is a new function introduced in this year’s models.
The company’s new Apple Watch Ultra 2 went on sale in global countries and India on September 22, whereas the first-generation Apple Watch Ultra is no longer available on Apple’s website, a year after its release.
Apple Watch Ultra 2 vs. Apple Watch Ultra
Pricing in India
- The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is priced at Rs. 89,900 in India and is available for purchase through the company’s website, official Apple stores in Mumbai and Delhi, and licenced resellers around the country. The Smartwatch, like its predecessor, is available in Natural Titanium.
- However, the first-generation Apple Watch Ultra, which was also launched in India last year for Rs. 89,900, is no longer featured on Apple’s website. However, it costs Rs. 84,990 on Amazon and Rs. 79,900 from Croma.
The prices of both wearables may be reduced during the upcoming Amazon Great Indian Festival and Flipkart’s Big Billion Days sales.
Apple Watch Ultra 2 vs. Apple Watch Ultra Specifications
