I wonder if I should get the Apple Watch 9 or the Apple Watch Ultra 2

depends on your budget and usage bah, but I think money is not an issue for your case.

1. Battery Ultra2 of course is better than S9
2. Casing, Ultra2 is titanium while S9 is either alu/stainless steel
3. If you're diver, ultra2 is for you. 100M vs S9 which is only 50M
4. Screen bigger on U2, I think size is an important point to take note. Some prefer smaller
5. U2 got siren features, I think is for those extreme sport and you need it for emergency
6. GPS more accurate on U2

Other than that, is about the same. another is S9 is 2k nits while U2 is 3k which is brighter, so you can look at your watch at an extreme sunlight or deeper in the sea I guess

Budget not an issue.

I used to have the Ultra but gave it to my wife as her dive comp died so she is using the AW Ultra for diving.

Right now the smart watch is mostly to be used for mountain biking which initially i did use the Ultra for (I like that it is easy to apply the screen protector) but after going back to the AW5, seems quite nice that it is lighter compared to the AW Ultra.

Point number 6 does intrigue me a lot, I wonder how much more accurate as I rely on the GPS a lot

Dual GPS only on Ultra & Ultra2 for now.

Normal SE/S series used L1, while Ultra is L1 & L5
L5 is more accurate and combine with L1, of course it is better than non-ultra as it will lock the location faster and more efficiency

any recommendation on Data Plan to pair with the watch ? thinking of getting UniFi @ RM35
*
if you're currently using Maxis/Digi/Celcom postpaid, they got wearable plan which share the data/call with your watch

Maxis macam call Connect 18
Digi is AirSIM
Celcom is Numbershare
