As much i enjoyed ultra 3 for 15 days its way too big and heavy for my needs....i also sold my 10 so i purchased an 11 and moved on :)
Yeah for the battery, no for the size..... i always felt that there is sth on my wrist when i never think of wearing 11..... also it pops out so much which makes it easier to hit on walls/doors etc.
Where did you sell it? Curious how much used ones are going for.
 
I actually plan to downgrade from an Apple Watch Ultra gen 1 to the standard 46 mm aluminum Apple Watch 11 with GPS+Cellular. I can get $245 in trade-in credit from Apple ( or if the person I met on Facebook marketplace comes through paying the same price), that will go towards the Apple Watch 11, which means it would only cost me $315 to upgrade instead of like $660 for the Ultra 3. The Ultra is great in terms of battery and durability, but realistically, the standard Apple Watch 11 does everything I would need it to do. Plus, the Apple Watch Ultra started to become uncomfortable to wear to sleep for me. I never really took advantage of the more advanced fitness features of the Ultra 1, and I know I probably won't ever find myself needing to use the satellite feature when I have my 17 Pro Max with me when I go hiking or working out most of the time.

I had the Ultra 1 for 30 days and it was just a little heavy for me. Ended up with a new Series 7 Stainless Steel which is heavier than my old S3 but still lighter than the Ultra. Thinking about trying the Ultra 3 now since the difference may not be as noticeable as it was coming from the S3.

It feels so good wearing again sth that I don’t know it’s there. I only kept the nomad band from ultra 3 :p.
