Apple has officially launched the Apple Watch Ultra 2, alongside the iPhone 15 lineup and Watch Series 9, bringing notable upgrades in durability, performance, and usability. Here’s a closer look at the specs, features, availability, and pricing of the Apple Watch Ultra 2 in Nepal.
Sleek Yet Sturdy Design
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 retains its premium titanium casing, weighing 61.4 grams. The sapphire crystal-protected display ensures durability, while the back panel blends sapphire crystal and ceramic for a refined look.
On the side, Apple integrates a GPS antenna for precise tracking, dual speakers for enhanced audio, and a siren capable of emitting 86dB for emergencies. A dedicated Action button allows customization for quick tasks like starting workouts, marking waypoints, or activating the siren.
The opposite side houses the side button, a depth gauge for underwater tracking, a three-microphone array for clearer voice capture, and the digital crown for navigation.
For durability, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 boasts IP6X dust resistance and WR100 water resistance, allowing it to withstand up to 100 meters underwater. It’s even certified for diving up to 40 meters under the EN13319 standard.
Apple also offers a selection of stylish bands:
- Alpine Loop (Blue, Indigo, Olive)
- Trail Loop (Orange/Beige, Green/Gray, Blue/Black)
- Ocean Band (Blue, Orange)
Brighter and Sharper Display
The 1.92-inch Retina OLED display remains unchanged in size but now delivers an impressive 3,000 nits peak brightness, significantly improving outdoor visibility. With a flat 49mm screen, 338 PPI density, and sapphire crystal glass, this watch maintains the same display specs as its predecessor while refining brightness for better usability.
Performance: Faster and Smarter
Powered by the latest Apple S9 chip, the Watch Ultra 2 boasts a 30% faster GPU and a new four-core NPU, allowing for on-device Siri processing without requiring WiFi or cellular connectivity. Apple also claims 25% better voice dictation accuracy compared to the previous model.
The second-generation ultra-wideband (UWB) chip enhances precision location tracking, making it easier to locate nearby Apple devices. The 64GB storage makes it one of the first Apple smartwatches with this expanded capacity. Running on WatchOS 10, the Ultra 2 introduces an overhauled interface and advanced fitness tracking features.
Battery Life & Charging
Battery life remains the same as before—36 hours on standard usage. However, the Low Power Mode extends it up to 72 hours, a 12-hour increase from the previous generation. The device supports fast charging, though Apple has yet to provide full details on charging speeds.
Intuitive Double Tap Gesture
Apple introduces an innovative Double Tap gesture in the Ultra 2 and Watch Series 9. Simply tapping your thumb and index finger together allows users to:
- Answer or end calls
- Control media playback
- Set timers
- Silence alarms
- Capture photos or record videos
This feature utilizes machine learning, analyzing data from the gyroscope, accelerometer, and heart rate sensor to ensure precise activation.
Advanced Health & Fitness Tracking
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 includes advanced tracking for:
✅ Heart rate
✅ Blood oxygen (SpO2)
✅ ECG monitoring
✅ Stress levels
✅ Skin temperature
The new Workout app in WatchOS 10 supports automatic workout detection, switching between swimming, biking, and running seamlessly.
