(Sept 9 Keynote) Me: Color only upgrade for my Apple Watch Ultra. I'll pass.

(Sept 20 Availability) Me: Absolutely no way on that color only upgrade. What a joke.

in fairness, there should have been a black option in the first place. And Apple probably knew that.
They probably have multiple colors when Ultra 1 was lunched, but decided to hold back the black color to create more buzz. Apple probably know that a 2 year upgrade cycle for the Ultra series is better. The watch is a relatively mature product and realistically it is not very practical for annual release of new models (which also explains why the lackluster upgrade). They also started focusing on the software side of things instead of hardware.

I didnā€™t fall for it. I fell for the iPhone 16 pro max. But I sold my iPhone 15 pro max for a good price. šŸ˜‚

I really want one but Iā€™m a bit worried about the finish scratching offā€¦ Iā€™ve seen very conflicting things on the interwebs so far concerning this.

As soon as I saw it, I said "I would buy it if I had the money for it." They showed it off wonderfully at the event, and its an incredible looking watch.
