Buying advice for Algeria

Both Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Ultra 2 are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.

Apple Watch Ultra is 8% cheaper at 155,760 DZD versus 170,000 DZD for the Apple Watch Ultra 2, leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 packs a 564 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.

Above 100,000 DZD you are paying for the chipset, camera tuning, and long-term software support, so weigh those against price.
