The latest Apple Watch Series 10 and the updated Apple Watch Ultra 2 introduce significant advancements in wearable technology. These models offer a complete redesign, new functionalities, and enhanced performance, making them standout choices for tech enthusiasts and health-conscious users alike. With a sleek new look, powerful upgrades under the hood, and innovative features for fitness and wellness tracking, the Series 10 and Ultra 2 are poised to redefine what a smartwatch can do.
Apple Watch Series 10: A Comprehensive Redesign
The Apple Watch Series 10 features a comprehensive redesign, both inside and out. Available in 42mm and 46mm sizes to suit different wrist sizes and preferences, it features a thinner profile at just 9.7mm, making it more comfortable to wear all day long. The display is larger, brighter, and always-on, showing the second hand even when not actively in use. This makes it easier to read notifications and check the time at a glance without having to raise your wrist or tap the screen.
Under the hood, a key upgrade is the new S10 chipset, which enhances overall performance and introduces automatic background noise reduction for clearer phone calls directly from your wrist. You can now play music and media directly from the watch itself, adding convenience for on-the-go entertainment without needing to carry your iPhone.

For water sports and swimming enthusiasts, the Series 10 includes a depth gauge and water temperature recording, making it an ideal companion for snorkeling, diving, and pool workouts. The watch is water resistant up to 100 meters and can withstand the pressure of deep water activities.
- Thinner 9.7mm profile in 42mm and 46mm sizes
- Larger, brighter always-on display shows second hand
- New S10 chipset with faster performance and noise reduction
- Built-in music and media playback from the watch
- Depth gauge and water temperature recording up to 100m
The new Tides app is available for all watchOS 11 devices, providing real-time tide information, wave height, water temperature, and more – perfect for surfers, sailors, and beach-goers. Additionally, the Series 10 features sleep apnea detection, pending FDA approval in the US, which could be a catalyst for nighttime health monitoring. By tracking your blood oxygen levels and breathing patterns during sleep, the watch can alert you to signs of this potentially serious sleep disorder.
Pricing for the Apple Watch Series 10 starts at $399 for the base aluminum model, with higher prices for cellular connectivity and premium titanium versions. With its comprehensive upgrades and new features, the Series 10 offers compelling value for those looking for the ultimate smartwatch experience.
Apple Watch Ultra 2: Now in Jet Black
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 doesn’t introduce an entirely new model but adds a sleek jet black color option to its rugged, outdoor-focused design. With a durable titanium case and sapphire crystal display, the Ultra 2 is built to withstand extreme conditions and adventures.
Like the Series 10, the Ultra 2 also includes the advanced sleep apnea detection feature, enhancing its already impressive suite of health monitoring capabilities. From heart rate and ECG to blood oxygen and sleep tracking, the Ultra 2 is a powerhouse for wellness enthusiasts.
For those who appreciate luxury styling, the Hermes edition of the Ultra 2 offers a unique watch face and a rata timer complication, adding a touch of elegance to the rugged design. With its combination of durability, advanced features, and premium materials, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 is the ultimate companion for outdoor adventurers and style-conscious users alike.
Apple Watch SE: Minor Updates
The budget-friendly Apple Watch SE receives some minor updates, including a new jet black color option to match the Ultra 2 and the inclusion of the Tides app for surfers and water sports enthusiasts. However, it does not include the sleep apnea detection feature found in the more advanced Series 10 and Ultra 2 models.
Despite its more modest upgrades, the Apple Watch SE continues to offer a reliable and stylish option for users who want the core features of an Apple Watch without the higher price tag of the flagship models. With fitness tracking, heart rate monitoring, and seamless iPhone integration, the SE remains a solid choice for many users.
- Apple Watch Series 10 introduces a complete redesign with a thinner profile, larger always-on display, S10 chipset, built-in music playback, depth gauge, and sleep apnea detection.
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 adds a sleek jet black color option and includes sleep apnea detection, while the Hermes edition offers luxury styling.
- Apple Watch SE gets minor updates with a jet black color and Tides app, but lacks sleep apnea detection.
The new Apple Watch Series 10 and updated Apple Watch Ultra 2 bring significant improvements in design, functionality, and health monitoring to Apple’s smartwatch lineup. With features like a larger always-on display, powerful S10 chipset, automatic noise reduction, built-in media playback, depth gauge, and sleep apnea detection, these models set a new standard in wearable technology.
Meanwhile, the Apple Watch SE, though more modest in its upgrades, continues to offer a reliable and affordable option for users who want the essential Apple Watch experience. As Apple continues to push the boundaries of what a smartwatch can do, the Series 10, Ultra 2, and SE models cater to a wide range of users and needs.
