Thanks Matt, a little more space for gestures and all that is something I thought might be nice as well. I also assume that even if it may feel a bit big and thick in the beginning, you probably get used to it aftrer a few days.

I bought one at the end of May and really like the battery life and the action button. I started out with a 45 mm watch a few years ago, but my last couple have been 41 mm and switching to the ultra feels significantly larger than either of those. For one, the watch is much thicker. I traded watches with someone for about a week, so they could try out the ultra, and I didn’t depreciate their watches battery life, but the size was a nice change, felt much less obtrusive. With all that said, I don’t think I’m going back, for no other reason than the battery life. The larger screen makes the keyboard and other controls much easier to interact with.

We are considering upgrading from our Apple Watch series 5 to the series 9 and I do like the idea of the features and battery life of the Ultra, but not sure if I would like the size. Anybody who bought the Apple Watch Ultra last year, do you regret getting such a large watch? Ultimately it comes down to putting one on my wrist which unfortunately isn't so easy because the nearest Apple Store to where we live is about 700 miles away in Vancouver. There are a couple of stores who sell the Apple Watch here mostly in connection with a carrier plan, but none of these stores stocks an Ultra. But Facebook to the rescue, I just posted on one of our local "Ask a question" type groups if anybody here had one and would be willing to let me put it on my wrist and I received an answer within 15 minutes. Of course it helps also that we live in a town with a population of 5000 where if you live in town nothing is far away, then there is the fact that I have had my retail business on Main Street for 23 years and that I am the only blind guy with a guide dog in town and just everybody at least knows me by sight if not by name. Anyways, one of my customers will stop by tomorrow to show me his, but still I am curious what other Voiceover users have to say about especially if you may have had a regular Apple Watch before and upgraded to an Ultra last year.
