Its display size will increase, giving it the largest Apple Watch display yet.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside the new size, Ultra 3 is expected to gain some of the display enhancements that Series 10 debuted last year, including:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Always-on refreshes every second due to LTPO3<\/li>\n<li>Wide-angle OLED for better off-angle viewing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Improved performance with S11<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Trump-may-renege-on-CHIPS-Act-jeopardizing-plans-to-make-Apple-chips-in-the-US.webp.jpeg\" alt=\"Trump may renege on CHIPS Act, jeopardizing plans to make Apple chips in the US | Close-up of silicon wafer\" class=\"wp-image-989704\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Apple has a new S11 SiP ready for its latest Apple Watch models, including the Ultra 3.<\/p>\n<p>Details on performance improvements are unknown so far, but since the Ultra 2 is now two years old, the S11 should hopefully offer a meaningful upgrade over that previous S9 SiP.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, now that <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/06\/26\/watchos-26-has-these-hardware-requirements-for-apple-intelligence\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Intelligence is a thing in watchOS 26<\/a>, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see Apple pack even more performance enhancements into Ultra 3.<\/p>\n<p>New 5G and satellite connectivity<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/apple-5g-chip-modem.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-989320\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Apple Watch Ultra has always been marketed as a product for adventurers and explorers. But the Ultra 3 will easily be the best option yet for those uses.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, Apple Watch Ultra <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/07\/11\/apple-watch-ultra-3-three-new-features-coming-next-year\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">will gain support<\/a> for 5G cellular speeds. This will happen through 5G RedCap, a special variant of 5G designed for low power consumption.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, satellite connectivity <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/07\/11\/apple-watch-ultra-3-three-new-features-coming-next-year\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">is coming to Ultra 3<\/a> for those situations where you can\u2019t get a cell signal.

Apple Watch Ultra\u2019s exclusive faces are a key reason I\u2019m considering going Ultra for the first time, and it\u2019s likely Apple will have something new to show with the Ultra 3.<\/p>\n<p>Which Apple Watch Ultra 3 features matter most to you?
