Apple Watch Ultra 2 Titanium Black: Is it worth it?

(Spoiler: get ready to fall in love, but only if you haven't already married Natural Titanium.)

So, you have a Apple Watch Ultra 1 or maybe the 2, all beautiful in its natural titanium, robust, elegant, indestructible.

You feel like an extreme sports champion, ready for whatever challenge your life (or Apple) throws at you, and now, BAM, he comes out: theApple Watch Ultra 2 Titanium Black.

Very cool, black, with those straps that make even the race to the coffee bar look like a mission to Mars.

But, is it worth it? I'll leave you my frank opinion, from friend to friend.

But... is it just a different color?

Yes, I know what you're thinking: “It's just the color, right? Everything else is the same...”

Exactly.

Apple has not added who knows what secret function that transforms your watch into a robot to Transformers.

THEApple Watch Ultra 2 Titanium Black It's technically the same as the one on your wrist, with The S9 chip, The usual autonomy for almost two days, Dual-Frequency GPS which also locates you in the middle of a forest or on a mountain.

And of course, all those goodies that make you think: “Apple always knows how to make me feel like a sportsman even if the most extreme thing I've done is go out without an umbrella in the rain.”

So yes, if you are already the proud owner of a Ultra 1 Or say a Ultra 2 in natural titanium, the only real news is that you could combine your watch with a total black look which, let's face it, James Bond is vacationing in the Maldives a lot.

So why do we want it so much?

Apple knows its stuff. And he knows it even better when it comes to tempting us enthusiasts with these small aesthetic touches.

Of course, natural titanium is beautiful, it immediately transmits that mix of strength and style that no other smartwatch gives you.

But what about black titanium? Let's talk about it: He is the Batman of smartwatches.

More elegant, naughtier, more... boh, sexy?

Yes, I said sexy about a watch, but look at it and tell me you haven't tried it on anyway.

The Nero it's not just a color, it's a Statement. Do you want to feel like the type that gets out of a helicopter even when you get off the tram?

This is the color that's right for you. Add to this the new black Trail and Ocean straps and it's like your wrist is screaming: “I'm ready to climb Everest, but this evening I'm going to a gala.”

And speaking of colors, pay attention: Apple has also launched the Satin Black version For theApple Watch Ultra 2. So, if black titanium already appealed to you, imagine what this could do Satin Black: same aggressive style, but with an even more refined finish. Oh, and if you like to combine everything, there's also a new Milanese titanium mesh strap. In short, black on black on black. For true extreme minimalists.

But is it worth the upgrade?

If it's worth it to switch to Ultra 2 in black titanium it depends only on your needs:

• If you already own theApple Watch Ultra 1, here's the thing: The jump to Ultra 2 (both natural and black titanium) is a performance upgrade more than anything else. The S9 chip is more responsive, the brightness of the display is a beacon in the night and yes, you can do everything you did before... a little better.
• On the other hand, if you already have the Ultra 2 in natural titanium, let's face it: theThe only difference is purely aesthetic.

And, oh, what an aesthetic. Black completely changes the way you perceive the watch.

With natural titanium you are the type to explore arctic in style.

With black titanium you're ready to parkour on rooftops at night like Batman.

Do we really need this change? Maybe not, but it Do you want the same, right?

Hey, I get it.

Guess who is moving from Ultra 1 to Ultra 2 black...

Watch out for the Jet Black Series 10

If the Nero It's making you lose your mind, also pay attention toApple Watch Series 10 In the coloring Jet Black.

This model is even thinner and it has a giant OLED display, 30% larger than your Ultra, with extra brightness that makes you look ready to launch an SOS directly from the screen.

But there is a Small flaw: The battery lasts only 18 hours. Which unfortunately, if you are used to 36 hours of Ultra 2, it's a nice compromise.

In short, if you love black and want a smartwatch that looks like a jewel, the Jet Black of Series 10 It's a super cool option.

However, if the battery life for you it is essential (and you don't want to have to recharge every night), the Ultra 2 Black Titanium remains unbeatable.

Final Thoughts: Natural Titanium or Black?

If you already have the natural titanium, stay away from the images of black titanium.

Because, my friend, It's tempting.

But if you search new functionalities and you look great with what you have, keep wearing your Ultra with pride.

However, it is one of the best smartwatches out there, and what it offers in terms of resistance, functionality and performance is unbeatable, regardless of the color.

But if you're a guy looking for the The charm of dark aesthetics, who wants to be atLast cry, then, well... you could fall in love with this black titanium in a second. Is it worth it? If you're a fan of total black minimalism, yes. If, on the other hand, you are a type who looks more at the substance than at the appearance, your natural titanium is already all you need.

And if you are undecided between the black ofUltra 2 And the Jet Black Series 10, remember that Does the battery make the difference. Ultra 2 covers you for up to 36 hours, while the Jet Black will leave you on foot after 18. The choice is yours.

After all, it's like deciding whether to go from a flawless gray sports jacket to a black tuxedo suit. Both make you look like a champion, but it depends on what look you want to bring to the world.
