I wish macrumors would affiliate with a local store like Costco. Something accessible. Amazon is a process, in both purchasing and returns. Also you get 90 days on Costco electronics

Pro tip: Best Buy and Target price match with Amazon.

I actually recommend buying from Target because their policy is if the price drops lower between now and December 24, they'll adjust the price. Even if you buy it now and it goes on sale 4 weeks from now. But the caveat is that it has to be a lower price at Target, not a competitor.

However, if a competitor has a lower price 14 days after you buy something, they'll adjust the price.

That’s a good deal. Considering the SS Series 8 45 Cellular is $749, the Ultra is a bargain at $739.

 

[jz0309]

great deal, glad I got mine on launch day

 

[Villarrealadrian]

Let me guess only on Amazon… pff

I’m going one more year with my Apple Watch Series 3 before I upgrade.

You’ll never make, lol

For you: Next year iPhone 15 Pro Max & Apple Watch Ultra 2 should be on the bucket list 🥲

 

[tridley68]

For this price I may have to upgrade from my 45mm series LTE.

I thought the same thing. Then, in June, it bricked while I was trying to do a software update. I felt terrible buying a 7 months before the 8.

 

[ThirtyWon]

Best Apple product i've bought in some time. Takes the existing AW platform and upgrades in in many ways, addressing nearly all complaints I had about AW.

 

[svish]

Good to see offers on Watch Ultra.

 

[PhillyGuy72]

Not bad!! Love the Ultra, it's absolute beast! I'm waiting....or hoping for the Apple Ultra bands to go on sale....maybe?

$99 is kind of silly to me for fabric or silicone, might do $69 for the Ocean band if it goes on sale. We'll see I guess. (off topic, Best Buy does have quite a few Apple watch bands on sale now. Kicking myself for not getting Sequoia Green Leather Loop for $49)

 

[iSayuSay]

That’s a good deal. Considering the SS Series 8 45 Cellular is $749, the Ultra is a bargain at $739.

Even without discount, Ultra is a better deal compared to SS Series 8.

Of course if you just want the whole package and features, nothing beats the basic Aluminum Series 8.

 

[thelead]

I can't get over the bulk. The regular versions are too thick as is IMO (height from the bottom of the watch to top of the display). The ultra is 35% larger in that dimension. Good deal though for those that like large watches.

That’s what I said last year… and the year before that lol.

same thing for me too

The Lamborghini Aventador is 100 dollars off today. Great! Still can’t afford it.

Amazon returns are infinitely better and easier than Costco returns for high ticket items. Every product over 500 bucks from Costco results in months of waiting for a refund. I've had to resort to chargebacks twice to get it completed. Their customer service agents will lie and stall you endlessly.

Note that this is Costco online. I probably should have just went to the warehouse and returned it in person.

 

[flottenheimer]

Still too big for my wrist, unfortunately.

 

[Sciomar]

I'm loving the Ultra, great size for my wrist. The battery life is exactly what I was hoping for, an early morning workout plus a full day of work doesn't drain it like my S5.

 

[GuruZac]

I’m going one more year with my Apple Watch Series 3 before I upgrade.

The S3 to Ultra is a massive upgrade, but to each their own. When you do decide to upgrade, it will be a quite the upgrade.

As an aside, I turned off the cellular on my Ultra, just never used it without my phone, and logging 30-45 min workouts, plus 14 hours on wrist and AoD always left on, I’m averaging 78% battery left by end of day. Extrapolating, that’s 22% battery drain over 14 hours with a workout or just 1-2% loss per hour. The battery on the Ultra truly is ultra (for an Apple Watch). Very happy with Ultra.

 

[anthogag]

Once you go Ultra you don’t go back. After Ultra could be Apple Watch Pinnacle.

For Amazon credit card holders, does one ALSO get a 5% kick-back after the fact? Makes it about $100 overall less than apple, plus ~$10 tax, now we’re talking real money. Can easily buy a 2nd band for that amount.

Granted, I get 3% off with Apple Card and 24 months interest free to pay for it, but $$ talks at some point.

I can still return my AWU (replacement due to scroll wheel problem) hate to do that to apple but their CFO must understand. ;-)
