Need a rugged watch on a budget? Get the Apple Watch Ultra 2 at this hard-to-beat price today!
How many times have you seen the word “budget” written in the same sentence as the name of the latest rugged Apple smartwatch? Not that many, I’m sure, and while Woot still doesn’t sell the Apple Watch Ultra 2 at a comparable price with the “mainstream” Apple Watch Series 10 (let alone the dirt-cheap Apple Watch SE 2), this absolute tank of a cellular-equipped intelligent timepiece is almost impossible to turn down right now.
That’s because you can pay just $529.99 for a “grade A” refurbished unit with a super-handsome black titanium case, matching black ocean band, and most importantly, a one-year seller warranty… if you hurry. In theory, the aforementioned Amazon-owned e-tailer plans to keep this phenomenal new deal going until Saturday, June 14, but the undoubtedly limited inventory could be completely wiped out in a matter of hours.
That’s basically what happened a couple of weeks ago, when the same product was sold by the same retailer (in a different color) at an even lower price with an even lengthier warranty included. So, yeah, this is technically a worse deal, but not by much and it still beats all comparable offers currently available on Amazon for both brand-new and “renewed” Apple Watch Ultra 2 units.
As evidenced in our comprehensive Apple Watch Ultra 2 review back in the fall of 2023, this is not a vastly different device from its 2022 predecessor, but all the little improvements and refinements make a strong value proposition even stronger… especially at 530 bucks.
That price includes standalone 4G LTE connectivity in addition to a super-robust titanium construction, impressively bright (and large, and sharp) Retina display, excellent battery life (at least by Apple Watch standards), industry-leading water and dust resistance, not to mention all of the most advanced health monitoring tools in today’s wearable landscape.
Yes, a presumably even better Apple Watch Ultra 3 is likely right around the corner, but for the time being, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 remains the absolute best smartwatch an iPhone owner can buy for both indoor and outdoor usage. Just make sure you hurry and place your Woot order before it’s too late!
