I hope all Apple products transitions to braided cables. The new MacBook magsafe cables are excellent.

The bezel is way too wide on Ultra. The display area on Ultra is 1164 sq mm vs 1143 sq mm on a regular Watch 8: not much larger.

I’m still not sure if I like it or not…. Sometimes I look at it from certain angles and it looks hideous and other times I look at it and it looks beautiful…. Very bizzare I know…. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see it in person
