The Apple Watch Ultra 2 (review) launched back in September 2023. And its successor is expected to arrive next month, alongside the iPhone 17 series. While we don’t have a whole lot of news about it yet, we now know that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will have a slightly larger display.
Apple Watch Ultra 3 rumors
Display
This information was revealed within the build display pictures inside the iOS 26 Beta 5, first spotted by MacRumors. For reference, the Watch Ultra 2 had a 1.92-inch OLED display with a 410 x 502 resolution. Whereas its successor will reportedly have a larger 422 x 514 resolution display.
That would mean the Watch Ultra 3 will have a roughly 1.98-inch display. Although it’s unclear if Apple plans on making the case itself to accommodate all this. Or if the Watch Ultra 3 will just trim down the bezels for this.

Other features
Besides a larger display, Apple’s next “Ultra” watch is also expected to come with some big upgrades. Including 5G cellular connectivity with a built-in 5G modem on top of satellite connectivity for emergency messaging.
And like the Watch Series 10, Apple might adopt a wide-angle OLED panel for this watch as well, for improved readability.
Whereas it might be powered by the same S10 SiP as the Watch Series 10, or Apple may jump to a newer S11 chip. In terms of health and fitness monitoring, the Watch Ultra 3 could even detect when your blood pressure is higher than normal.
Apple Watch Ultra 3 Price and Launch
So, like always, Apple will be announcing its new smartwatch alongside its newest iPhones in September. And considering that both Apple Watch Ultra (review) and Watch Ultra 2 (review) went for USD 799, the new guy could end up costing the same as well.
