High blood pressure detection
According to journalist Mark Gurman (Bloomberg), Apple will equip the high-pressure warning feature for the Watch Ultra 3. The device does not display specific specific indicators such as cardiopulmonary or dialysis, but will warn users when there are signs of increased blood pressure - similar to the current method of sleep apnea monitoring.
Sending messages via satellite without an iPhone
Watch Ultra 3 will support satellite messaging for the first time. This feature allows users to communicate even without mobile waves or Wi-Fi which is especially useful when traveling in the forest, climbing mountains or exploring remote areas.
battery-efficient 5G connection
Apple also brought 5G connection to the Ultra line for the first time. That is 5G Redcap technology - a speed that is not as fast as 5G on the iPhone but consumes less energy, helping to balance performance and battery life.
Although not officially launched, leaked upgrades show that Apple is continuing to shape Ultra as a high-end product line, clearly different from regular Apple Watch versions.
In the context of users increasingly interested in personal health and independent connectivity, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is expected to be a pioneer device leading the smartwatch trend in 2025.
