Garmin responded to the Apple Watch Ultra, the newly launched rugged and durable high-end smart sports watch of Apple Watch Ultra, who said in a tweet after the iPhone 14 and Apple Watch event that Garmin measures battery life by "month" rather than "hours" and uses it to promote its Enduro 2 watch designed for athletes.
While the Apple Watch Ultra's battery life is by far the longest of any Apple Watch, Apple promises up to 36 hours of normal use and up to 60 hours with watchOS 9's new low-power mode settings and other optimization features, the Enduro 2 can be significantly longer, depending on the usage scenario.
Although Garmin claims it measures battery life in months, the company is actually more like pursuing this to promote the Enduro 2 "battery life up to 150 hours in solar-charged GPS mode" and "battery life up to 34 days in smartwatch mode". The
Enduro 2 has a 1.4-inch solar-powered monochrome LCD display, while the nearly 2-inch display on the Apple Watch Ultra can reach a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, the brightest ever on the Apple Watch.
Apple Watch Ultra also has a variety of sensors, including an electrocardiogram, alarms for measuring blood oxygen levels, high and low heart rates, and new body temperature sensors focused on women's health.
Earlier this week, the Apple Watch Ultra was available for pre-order and will be shipped starting Friday, September 23. The Apple Watch Ultra offers a 49mm case for $799, while the Garmin Enduro 2 costs $1,099.
