Apple takes on the likes of Garmin and COROS watches with the Apple Watch Ultra. With a rugged design, larger battery, improved GPS, large and more durable display, and a built-in action button, the Apple Watch Ultra is an excellent option for adventurous athletes and explorers.

While it's ready to go out of the box, pairing it with the right accessories can help you get the most out of it.

Here are the best Apple Watch Ultra accessories available.

The Apple MagSafe Duo is a convenient and stylish way to charge your Apple Watch Ultra. It's a small and compact charging station that allows you to charge your iPhone and Apple Watch at the same time, making it an excellent all-in-one charging solution for a desk or nightstand. You can also use it to top up your AirPods or other Qi-compatible devices.

The charger uses Apple's MagSafe technology to charge your iPhone quickly and efficiently at up to 14 watts. In addition, the built-in magnets mean both your watch and iPhone stay securely in place while they charge. The only downside is that it does not support fast charging for the Apple Watch Ultra, but this isn't a dealbreaker, especially if you mostly charge your watch overnight.

One of the great features of the MagSafe Duo is its portability. The device is compact and easy to take with you wherever you go, so you can charge your devices on the road or at work. And when you're not using it, the MagSafe Duo folds up neatly, taking up minimal space on your desk or bag.

FAQ

Q: Should I Put a Case on My Apple Watch Ultra?

The Apple Watch Ultra is a pretty durable device and can withstand the daily wear and tear of everyday use.

However, if you're planning to push the Apple Watch Ultra to its limits or take it with you to outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and swimming, using a rugged and durable case can help protect it from accidental falls and knocks.

Q: Does Ultra Watch Need a Screen Protector?
