For outdoor adventurers, water sports lovers, and endurance athletes who require an extended battery life for competition and exploration, Apple Watch Ultra was created.
So, we made Apple Watch Ultra’s battery life a priority in every design decision. We also examined a number of other measures because different people will use Apple Watch Ultra in different ways.
In August 2022, Apple evaluated the battery life of the Apple Watch Ultra (GPS + Cellular) by pairing it with an iPhone and utilizing preproduction models of both devices. Actual results will differ depending on the use, cellular coverage, setting, and many other things.
How long do Apple Watches last?
Most Apple Watches last 18 hours. To calculate how long an LTE battery will last for a day, we used the following usage scenarios: 18 hours of wear life on an Apple Watch Ultra (GPS + Cellular) includes 90-time checks, 90 alerts, 45 minutes of app use, and a 60-minute workout with music streamed through Bluetooth.
During this time period, the LTE connection is actively used for a total of 18 hours.
In August of 2022, Apple ran tests with a prototype Apple Watch Ultra (GPS + Cellular) and an iPhone running prerelease software.
Several factors, including but not limited to how the device is used, its settings, the strength of the cellular network, and the quality of the signal, can affect the accuracy of any given prediction.
