Seeing some battery health comments I noticed something rather odd after the latest Watch OS update, I was at 84% battery health on Series 6 Stainless Steel but it has went up to 87%! My plan was to let it get to 80% and then ask Apple for free replacement. For some reason when I did a dummy battery service attempt at a service request it said my device is covered under consumer law and the replacement will be free of charge despite warranty having long expired.
I've not used any other content from another source, so can't compare I run a lot but wanted to do some yoga or pilates as years of running my flexibility needs some work! So without having to join a local class or group it's been really good so far and if I want to continue after my 5 month trial (with Barclays) a tenner added to my apple plan is going to be a lot cheaper than a club or gym membership and updating to the top plan means I can also cancel my Readly membership so it's almost freeJust interested to know how do you find that? I cant make up mind about it. It has some advantages like better Watch integration but the actual content is not as good as Peloton.
Anyway I'm slowly getting this watch to work as I would like, one bug bear I haven't ironed out yet. When I'm using my iPhone in car play or listening to a podcast and I look at my watch I have the controls for say the podcast or music displayed on my watch. How do I stop it doing that?
Hmm it was working fine with my iPhone 13 (face Id enabled). It was helpful just for my next trains view.The national rail app still hasn’t been updated for Face ID enabled phones, is anyone even working on that? It’s a buggy mess in my experience.
It is unclear if Apple will update the Apple Watch Ultra prior to when it implements microLED, but given that we're at least two years away from the new model, we could get an in-between update. That said, it isn't yet known if Apple will update annually or if the Apple Watch Ultra will be more like the Apple Watch SE with occasional updates.
It works but it’s letter boxed with black bars top and bottom because it hasn’t been updated to work with the new aspect ratio that came in with the iPhone 10. It’s got the iPhone 8 fixed aspect ratio. Also the date and times boxes are a mess in the journey planner and pretty buggy. They got broken in an iOS update a few years ago and were never fixed.Hmm it was working fine with my iPhone 13 (face Id enabled). It was helpful just for my next trains view.
And what about Spotify? I’m sure something else is going on.
Costco had some good prices for a long time (maybe even now not sure but certainly from January - April) at £699 which was a pretty deep discount for current gen.Have to admit, getting very tempted to pick up an Ultra....
At the point where I'm happy to wait until September and see if a Gen 2 is announced and with that potential sales on the current model.

No mention yet, it's normally around late September/October. Also suggestions that the Ultra might be on a longer refresh cycle.Not been watching the latest Apple stuff but is the series 9 due out soon?
