  3. The Cycle Tracking app should not be used for birth control or to diagnose a health condition.
  4. Irregular rhythm notification requires the latest version of watchOS and iOS. It is not intended for use by people under 22 years old or those who have been previously diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib).
  5. All-day battery life is based on the following use: 180 time checks, 180 notifications, 90 minutes of app use, and a 60-minute workout with music playback from AppleWatch via Bluetooth, over the course of 36 hours; AppleWatch Ultra2 (GPS + Cellular) usage includes a total of 8 hours of LTE connection and 28 hours of connection to iPhone via Bluetooth over the course of 36 hours. Battery life in Low Power Mode is based on the following use: 360 time checks, 360 notifications, 180 minutes of app use, and two 60-minute workouts with music playback from AppleWatch via Bluetooth, over the course of 72 hours; AppleWatch Ultra2 (GPS + Cellular) usage includes on-demand LTE connection and 60 hours of connection to iPhone via Bluetooth over the course of 72 hours. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2023 using preproduction AppleWatch Ultra2 (GPS + Cellular) paired with an iPhone; all devices tested with prerelease software. Battery life varies by use, configuration, cellular network, signal strength, and many other factors; actual results will vary.
  6. Charge times are from 0–80% and 0–100% using the included AppleWatch Magnetic Fast Charging USB-C Cable. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2023 using preproduction AppleWatch Ultra2 (GPS + Cellular) paired with an iPhone; all devices tested with prerelease software, AppleWatch Magnetic Fast Charging USB-C Cable (Model A2515), and Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter (Model A2305). Charge time varies with region, settings, and environmental factors; actual results will vary.
  7. A subscription is required for Oceanic+. Available on the AppStore. Always follow diving protocols and dive with a companion and have a secondary device.

  10. AppleWatch Ultra2 has a water resistance rating of 100 meters under ISO standard 22810. It may be used for recreational scuba diving (with compatible third-party app from the App:Store) to 40 meters and high-speed water sports. AppleWatch Ultra2 should not be used for diving below 40 meters. Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time. For additional information see support.apple.com/HT205000.
  11. AppleWatch Ultra2 is rated IP6X dust resistant.
  12. Wireless service plan required for cellular service. Contact your service provider for more details. Connection may vary based on network availability.

  15. Data accurate as of product launch. Product statements are based on U.S. configuration of AppleWatch Ultra2 paired with Alpine Loop.
  16. Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in-box accessories.
  17. Our manufacturing electricity is sourced from clean electricity, including a mix of supplier and Apple clean energy projects.
  18. 50% of all carbon neutral products by weight are planned, as of product launch, to be shipped via non-air modes of transportation over the lifetime of the products.
  19. Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario: 1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the latest modeled grid (based on regional emissions factors). 2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, ocean, ground) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.
  20. For more information about our use of carbon credits, please see the Product Environmental Report.
  21. All cobalt claims are on a mass balance allocation.
  22. Based on retail packaging as shipped by Apple. Breakdown of U.S. retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks, and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.
  23. Apple is matching 100% of expected electricity consumption only for carbon neutral aluminum AppleWatch Series9, AppleWatch SE, and AppleWatch Ultra2 combinations.
  24. AppleWatch Ultra2 meets California Energy Commission’s Energy Efficiency Standards for Small Battery Charger Systems as outlined in the California Code of Regulations.
  25. Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end-customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco-label requirements, environmental standards, and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), and South Korea, where we continue toseek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high-temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.
  26. AppleTradeIn is our trade-in and recycling program that’s good for you and the planet. If your trade-in device is eligible for credit, you can offset the purchase price of a new one. If it’s not eligible for credit, you can recycle it for free. Trade-in values vary based on the condition, year, and configuration of your trade-in device, and may also vary between online and in-store trade-in. You must be at least 18 years old. Apple or its trade-in partners reserve the right to refuse or limit any trade-in transaction for any reason. In-store trade-in requires presentation of a valid, government-issued photo ID (local law may require saving this information). Additional terms from Apple or Apple’s trade-in partners may apply.
