Apple Watch Ultra (original) iOS 27

Am I reading it right that apple will not provide an update to ios 27 for Ultra 1? Is that true. If so, that's insane for the amount this watch costs.

It is not "insane".


The Apple Watch Ultra 1 does not have the hardware necessary to run watchOS 27.


It received updates for 4 years, which is pretty much the average for Apple Watch models going all the way back to the original Apple Watch.
