I have wondered if I should update my Apple Watch 6 to Ultra 2 on some time since some people at least say here that the 5 mm have felt big difference. I noticed also from the specs that screen is 3x brighter in nits what sounds huge. The most what I am keen about is also the bigger battery, but not sure if that is worth the update because of that only.

So, if here is anybody who have updated from series 6 to Ultra 2, how has been your experience? Is that display much better in real life? Is it hard to sleep when watch is on your hand at night? Is brightness giving more value to you? What other good things and bad things you have seen, have you been happy with your update, would you do it again with your current knowledge?

I kept my 6 to sleep in so I'd never have to worry about battery on either device.

the main things I like about the Ultra are the exclusive faces. modular ultra is the face I've always wanted. wayfinder is a better iteration of infograph.

after that I really like the action button. I used to have it assigned to a shortcut menu, but I remapped it to toggle my custom focus mode, since I found myself doing that in control center so often.

then there's the big flat screen.
