Apple Watch Ultra 2 With 3000 Nits Of Brightness, 'Double Tap' Feature Launched

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 has the brightest display Apple has ever created, with 3000 nits of brightness.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 was unveiled by Apple on Tuesday at its "Wonderlust event". The Apple Watch Ultra 2 has the brightest display Apple has ever created, with 3000 nits of brightness. A key highlight of the Watch Ultra 2 is the "night mode" that will automatically activate using the ambient light sensor.

A new advanced display architecture pushes the maximum brightness of Apple Watch Ultra 2 to 3000 nits -- 50 per cent brighter than the first generation of Apple Watch Ultra and the brightest display Apple has ever designed -- for greater readability in harsh sunlight. For dark rooms or early mornings, the display can also lower to just one nit so as not to disturb people close by. Flashlight also benefits from the new display architecture; rotating the Digital Crown temporarily doubles the brightness to better light the way.

A new watch face designed for Apple Watch Ultra -- Modular Ultra -- takes advantage of the large display, using the outermost edge to present real-time data, including seconds, altitude, or depth. It offers the most complications of any Apple digital watch face to customise for sports, outdoor adventures, and ocean and water activities.
