Apple prepares the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with a larger display, according to hidden code found within the fifth developer beta of iOS 26. The software contains references to a 422 x 514 pixel resolution that exceeds the current Ultra 2 model specifications. Engineers plan to maintain the same physical case dimensions while reducing border thickness around the screen edges. The diagonal measurement will expand from 1.93 inches to approximately 1.98 inches with 335 pixels per inch density maintained.
This design approach delivers five percent additional viewing space without enlarging the titanium housing. The company may integrate satellite messaging capabilities that function without cellular or Wi-Fi connections. Blood pressure monitoring and enhanced 5G cellular support represent additional improvements under consideration. Apple will announce the wearable device alongside the iPhone 17 series during a September 9 presentation. Standard Apple Watch Series 11 models will likely retain current screen dimensions due to recent design updates.
