If your training doesn’t stop when the trail ends or the network drops, this is your watch.
The new Apple Watch Ultra 3 blends expedition-grade hardware with Apple Intelligence features to become three devices in one: a serious sports watch, an elegant everyday smartwatch, and a health companion you can trust.
From September 19, 2025, you can get it at iCrest. Cashback offers are available on select cards (T&C apply).
Why Ultra 3 matters (in one glance)
- Emergency SOS via satellite: text emergency services, message loved ones, and share your live location off the grid.
- Largest Apple Watch display ever with LTPO3 wide-angle OLED — brighter at an angle, 1Hz always-on tick, thinner borders.
- Big-day stamina: up to 42 hours on a single charge; up to 72 hours in Low Power Mode; 15 minutes fast charge → up to 12 hours.
- 5G + the most accurate GPS in a sports watch for cleaner routes and faster syncs.
- New health insights: hypertension notifications (pending clearances) and sleep score join ECG, Blood Oxygen, and more.
- Workout Buddy (Apple Intelligence): coaching that talks to you, tuned to your pace, heart rate, and history.
Field Guide: 5 real situations Ultra 3 is built for
- Alpine start, zero bars
Hit the ridgeline and lose signal? Ultra 3 surfaces Emergency SOS via satellite and Connection Assistant to guide your alignment. You can also share your Find My location every 15 minutes via satellite. - Race day, marginal coverage
Dual system antennas + 5G lock in better throughput for music, messages, and app data. The Action button triggers Precision Start or marks segments without hunting through menus. - Night laps at the track
The new 1Hz always-on refresh shows a real ticking seconds hand on updated faces (including the new Waypoint face with live compass and quick Night Mode). - Long-haul brick session
With up to 42 hours of typical use (and 20 hours of continuous outdoor workout tracking in Low Power Mode with full GPS + heart rate), Ultra 3 keeps logging when other wearables bow out. - Train smarter, recover better
Hypertension notifications analyze vascular response trends to flag potential chronic high blood pressure. Sleep score translates sleep duration, stages, and regularity into a clear number you can act on.
What’s genuinely new vs earlier Ultras

- Bigger, easier-to-read screen without upsizing the case — thanks to LTPO3 and wide-angle OLEDs.
- 1Hz always-on with second-hand visibility across Stopwatch, Timer, and 20+ faces.
- Two-way satellite messaging (texts, emoji, Tapbacks) plus Emergency SOS and Find My via satellite.
- Smarter radios: redesigned antenna doubles signal strength for satellites; advanced algorithm can engage two system antennas to boost weak-area reception.
- Health leap: hypertension notifications (post-clearance) + sleep score join an already deep health stack.
- Workout Buddy coaching with Apple Intelligence.
Note: Battery life, satellite availability, and 5G support vary by region, device settings, and conditions.
Athlete’s toolkit (highlights)
- Running: industry-leading dual-frequency GPS accuracy, Race Route, Pacer, Heart Rate Zones, vertical oscillation, ground contact time, stride length, auto track-running detection.
- Cycling: Live Activity metrics on iPhone, power meter support (FTP estimates, Power Zones), cadence, speed, elevation.
- Swimming: stroke detection, laps, SWOLF, water temp; WR100 rating.
- Hiking: offline maps, Compass Waypoints & Backtrack.
- Diving: Oceanic+ app turns Ultra 3 into a recreational dive computer (subscription).
Design & durability
- Natural or black titanium cases: strong, light, corrosion-resistant.
- New bands: Trail Loop (now with reflective yarn), fresh Ocean Band and Alpine Loop colors; Hermès adds En Mer shades and Scub’H Diving band.
- Built with 100% recycled cobalt in the battery and 100% recycled titanium in the case; fiber-based packaging — part of Apple 2030.

How to choose: Ultra 3 vs Series
Pick Ultra 3 if you need: multi-day battery options, the biggest/brightest screen, top-tier GPS accuracy, satellite features, and pro-grade sport metrics.
Pick a Series model if you want a lighter everyday watch with core health/fitness and don’t need expedition features or satellite tools.
