What we’re expecting
DigiTimes reported in June 2026 that Ultra 4 gets a redesigned chassis, the first change to the Ultra form factor since the original launched in 2022. A thinner profile is expected based on supply chain reports.
Apple Watch Ultra hasn't changed its basic shape since 2022, and Digitimes is reporting that the Ultra 4 finally gets a full redesign. That's four years of the same chassis on a watch that costs more than most laptops, so a new look is overdue. No details yet on what changes, just that the redesign is described as 'major.'
