⌚️ Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 Review!

The Apple Watch Series Nine and Ultra Two: A Game-Changing Experience

As I sit here with my two brand new watches on my wrist, the Apple Watch Series Nine and the Apple Watch Ultra Two, I am thrilled to share my thoughts on these incredible pieces of technology. For me, the Apple Watch is more than just a smartwatch – it's a game-changer that has revolutionized the way I live, work, and play. With its sleek design, user-friendly interface, and cutting-edge features, the Apple Watch has become an indispensable companion that I couldn't imagine living without.

The New S9 SiP: A Four-Core Neural Engine

One of the most exciting features of the new Apple Watches is the S9 SiP, a four-core neural engine that provides unparalleled processing power and efficiency. This means that the Apple Watch can handle complex tasks with ease, from tracking my fitness goals to recognizing faces and responding to voice commands. The S9 SiP also enables advanced machine learning capabilities, allowing the Apple Watch to learn my habits and preferences over time and adapt to my needs.

Improved Health and Fitness Tracking

The Apple Watch has always been a leader in health and fitness tracking, and the new series is no exception. With features like ECG monitoring, fall detection, and irregular heartbeat alerts, the Apple Watch provides a comprehensive picture of my physical and mental well-being. The watch also tracks my activity levels, sleep patterns, and nutrition intake, providing valuable insights that help me make informed decisions about my health.

Enhanced Gaming and Entertainment

But the Apple Watch is not just for fitness enthusiasts – it's also a powerful gaming console and entertainment hub. With the introduction of the Modular Ultra Watch Face, users can now customize their watch experience with a vast array of complications, including a compass, altimeter, and even a 3D view of my trail. The watch also supports augmented reality experiences, allowing me to immerse myself in virtual worlds and interact with digital objects in real-time.

Scuba Diving and Underwater Exploration

Speaking of immersion, the Apple Watch Ultra Two is specifically designed for scuba diving and underwater exploration. With its advanced dive computer capabilities, the watch provides critical information about my depth, water temperature, and safety stops. It also offers notifications if I'm descending or ascending too quickly, which is a lifesaver in emergency situations. And with the Oceanic Plus Housing, even non-Apple Watch owners can turn their iPhone into a dive computer – it's a game-changer for anyone who loves diving.

Free Diving and Snorkeling

The Apple Watch Ultra Two also offers a new feature called free diving, which allows me to set up customized sessions and track my progress. This is an exciting development that will appeal to adventurous souls like myself, who love exploring the underwater world. And with the watch's advanced sensors, I can monitor my body position, heart rate, and other vital signs while freediving – it's a thrilling experience that's both exhilarating and educational.

Environmental Initiatives

But what sets the Apple Watch Ultra Two apart from its predecessors is the company's commitment to environmental sustainability. With initiatives like reduced packaging, energy-efficient manufacturing, and a focus on renewable energy sources, Apple is leading the charge in reducing waste and carbon emissions. As someone who values innovation and responsibility, it's heartening to see a company that prioritizes both.

My Personal Experience with Scuba Diving

For me, scuba diving has become an obsession – I'm hooked from the moment I slip on my gear and plunge into the unknown. With the Apple Watch Ultra Two by my side, I feel more confident than ever about exploring the underwater world. The watch's advanced dive computer capabilities have given me peace of mind, allowing me to focus on the experience rather than worrying about safety protocols. And with its 3D view of my trail, I can appreciate the beauty and complexity of marine ecosystems in ways that I never thought possible.

The Future of Scuba Diving

As I gaze out at the ocean, I wonder what the future holds for scuba diving – will it become even more accessible and enjoyable for people around the world? With the Apple Watch Ultra Two leading the charge, I'm optimistic that the next generation of divers will be equipped with the technology they need to explore the underwater world in a safe and sustainable way. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, the Apple Watch Ultra Two is an essential companion that will take your diving experience to new heights.

Conclusion

As I conclude this article, I'm reminded of why I fell in love with the Apple Watch in the first place – its innovative design, user-friendly interface, and commitment to environmental sustainability. With the Series Nine and Ultra Two, Apple has outdone itself once again, creating a device that not only enhances my daily life but also inspires me to explore new horizons. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast, gamer, or scuba diver, there's never been a better time to experience the power of technology on your wrist.

two.(upbeat music )Now you may know, and I'vesaid this so many timeson my channel that other than my iPhonethe Apple Watch is my favoriteApple product of all time.And I think this is actuallytrue for a lot of peopleand that's probably because Applehas put so much effort into this pieceof tech to make it so muchmore than just a smartwatch.They're consistentlyupdating their watch lineswith awesome features andimproving the hardwarewith each new release, makingthem truly invaluable tools.For me personally, theApple Watch has helpedme stay on top of my fitness goalsand it even inspired meto try new activitiesthat I probably never would'vethought to try otherwisebut we'll talk more about that later.Both of these watches arepowered by the new S9 SiPwhich has a four coreneural engine enablingsome new features that we haven't seenin the Apple Watch up until now.Siri can now handle the most commontasks directly on the devicerather than having toconnect to the internetwhich means hopefully it will be fasterand easier to use Siri on the watch.You can also accesshealth data via Siri nowwhich is great, althoughthat feature won't be comingout until later this year, soI'm excited to try that out.And thanks to the secondgen ultra Wideband chipprecision finding has been improved.So now when you need to find your iPhonein addition to hearingthat wonderful chirp soundthat we're also familiar with,the Apple Watch will showyou the approximate distanceand direction to your phone.I lose my phone at least 10 times a dayso I'm pretty stoked about that.Another new feature coming tothe Apple Watch is name dropwhich Apple announcedduring WWDC for iOS 17.I love this feature, so it's pretty coolthat they're bringing thisover to the watch OS as well.You can get the Apple Watch series nineeither aluminum orstainless steel finishes.For aluminum you can choose betweenmidnight Starlight silver product, redand of course my favorites pink.And for stainless steel it comes ingold silver and graphite.Both the Apple Watch series nineand Ultra two now havebrighter screens as wellwith a series nine going up to 2000 knitswhich is double the brightnessof the series eight.And the Ultra two isgoing up to 3000 knitswhich is 50% brighter than the original.Even with the new brighter screenwith the Apple Watch Ultra two,you're still getting 36hours of battery lifeand if you have it in low power mode,you can get up to 72 hours,which is a pretty longtime if you think about it.But the big new feature they announcedfor the Apple Watch is double tapand this allows you to controlthe Apple Watch hands free.Now I got to try this out duringthe product demo and it's super cool.All you have to do is raise your wristand double tap your thumb and index figureand this action controls theprimary button in any app.So you can do things like pauseand play music, answer acall, open a notificationand there's tons of other operations.Now when you're at the home screena double tap will open up yoursmart stack so you can scrollthrough all of your opennotifications and widgets.I think this is a really cool featureand it's probably just the firstof many gesture based featuresthat Apple will bring to theApple Watch in the future.Now, I also know that this is a featurethat was in accessibility previouslybut that is somethingthat you had to turn on.It wasn't a full-fledgedbuilt out feature.Now they're taking advantage of allof the new hardware in the Apple Watch.They have the ability to makethis a wide-based featureand it's actually something that youdon't have to turn on, it just works.A big point of pride forApple this year is that bothof the new Apple watches are their firsta hundred percent carbon neutral product.This is part of their2030 plan to make theirentire product linecarbon neutral by 2030.You are able to tell what products arecarbon neutral by looking atthis little logo right here.And this sport Loop one is actually oneof my new favorites andI love how soft it is.They're using all differenttypes of recycled materials,like old threads that theydidn't use from previouswatch bands and even theseNike ones for examplethese are also made from recycled groundup old Apple watch bandsthat they either didn't useor they're just excess materialsthat didn't make the cut.While I was at the Apple event,I got a chance to sit downwith Lisa Jackson and Johnturn from Apple to learn moreabout their environmental initiatives.You can check that video outhere if you wanna watch more.Now, last year Apple releasedthe Apple Watch Ultrawhich was such a hugehit and for me it quicklybecame my watch ofchoice for my daily use.Honestly, when I first got it I thoughtit was gonna be way toobig for my little wristbut I got over that pretty quickly.I love this thing so much, and eventhough we didn't get a design changeor a new color option with the Ultra twothere's still some reallygreat new features.The first thing that Inoticed in using thisis how much brighter the new screen isand it really does make a huge differenceespecially when you'reoutside in the bright sun.Now, like I said before,it is now brighterwith a peak brightness of 3000 knitsand it also comes with animproved ambient light sensor.The display will adapt to your surroundinglighting conditions and it can dim downto just one knit for night mode.This is the new modular ultra watch facewhich takes advantage of a huge display.This has the most complicationsof any watch face.I mean, look at this, they're everywhere.The compass has also been reimaginedwith new tools and functionality.You can see important detailslike Elevation, Inclineand even a three D view ofyour way points on a trail.Now, of course the Apple Watch Ultrawas designed specifically for themost extreme kinds of activities.It can handle the most harshenvironments, extreme hotand cold, wet and dry, highelevation, you name it.And it just so happensthat I recently took on oneof these extreme activitiesas my new hobby Scuba diving.- Alright, friends, weare hearing Catalinaand it's time to godiving with a brand newApple Watch Ultra twoand the iPhone 15 pros.(upbeat music)- Oh my god, it's so cold.So when you're actually underwaterwhen you're using this as a dive computerit'll give you yourdepth water temperatureand it also gives you an alertwhen it's time to do your safety stop.It'll also give you notificationsif you're descendingor ascending too quickly,which is really usefulbecause sometimes you're just focusingon either taking photos or just tryingto get your buoyancy correct.So being able to have this littleextra notification is really useful.Something else that's pretty awesome isif you don't have an Apple Watch Ultrabut you do have an iPhone,you are able to now turn thatinto a dive computer as wellwith Oceanic Plus Housing.I did a full video on this as wellif you wanna check that out.I just now want to encourageeveryone to be a diverand get into Scubabecause it is so much fun.Like I can't stop talking about it.Obviously, if you can't tell likeI have just that's all I wanna do.That's all I wanna talk about.And it's all thanks tothe Apple Watch Ultra.(upbeat music)If it wasn't for the Apple Watch Ultrathere's no way that Iwould be doing this at all.I was terrified of water a few months agoand now it's my newfavorite activity ever.You can also set it upif you wanna just snorkeland there's a newaddition to do free divingwhich is something thatI haven't tried yet.So maybe one day soon, I'm not sure.I'm not gonna hold my breath on that one.See what I did there?Yeah, isn't that good?That's good. (laughs)So that my friends is thebrand new Apple watchesand some of the new features.Again, I can't stressenough how much I absolutelylove the Apple Watch Ultra two.So excited to do some more adventuresand I really wanna get back into hikingbut now that I'm diving, Ijust wanna be under the water.If you wanna watch any other Apple videosor anything else on my channel,I'll put some right hereand I look forward to seeingyou guys in the next video.Bye.\n"
