  • Apple Watch Ultra review: Ambitious aspirations

    bc2009bc2009
    Reviews keep saying the display is 49mm on the Ultra.  It is NOT.   The “case” is 49mm.  That means the height of the case, NOT the diagonal of the display, is 49mm.   This is how watches are measured.  By the height of the case.   Take a gander at the bezels on the Ultra…. they are HUGE.   The display size is roughly the same as 45mm Series 8 with a slight increase for not having the curvature at the edges of the display.  

    The difference in display area is literally negligible:

    1185 sq mm  versus  1143 sq mm

    3.7% difference in display area

    to put that in perspective the difference between 45mm series 8 and 41 mm series 8 also differ in case size by 4mm but their display sizes have far greater disparity:

    1143 sq mm  versus   904 sq mm

    A 26.4% difference in display area. 

    So please, please, please stop with these reviews citing a “49mm display” versus a “45mm display”.  It is misleading to your readers.
