The new Apple Watch Ultra was the subject of a durability test by the TechRax YouTube channel to test the sapphire crystal’s resistance to damage.
With the exception of a few tiny scratches on the titanium casing, the Apple Watch Ultra was essentially unharmed when dropped from a height of around 1.2 m. Then, using nails that caused no discernible damage, the Apple Watch Ultra survived.
Then the hammer strikes started. The watch was put through a series of hits with a hammer in the test, and it held up until the screen failed, but only after the damage had already been done to the table. In addition, the safety glass itself was unharmed. When the clock eventually stopped operating, the blogger continued to break it.
The Apple Watch Ultra, according to Apple, is the most extreme, robust, and resilient Apple Watch ever. Last week, the Apple Watch Ultra went on sale for $800.
