How to use Apple Watch Ultra’s optimized charge limit feature? The autonomy of the new Apple Watch Ultra is already the longest in the line, but on this unit Apple has integrated a special function that optimizes the charge in a better way than any of its other smartwatches.
How to temporarily disable the Dynamic Island on iPhone?
All Apple Watch models – on which watchOS 7 or a later version of the operating system is present – in fact include a function called Optimized Battery Charging that extends the overall autonomy by learning from the user’s habits; with Apple Watch Ultra there is an even smarter version that the company calls Optimized Charge Limit.
When you configure the watch, this option is activated by default and uses machine learning technologies to analyze the daily use of the smartwatch to determine when to partially recharge it and when to fully recharge the battery.
This function therefore seems to change dynamically depending on how the device is used and could, for example, charge to 100% in some days and less in others.
Even if the function is active, it is however possible to load the watch beyond the limit set by the system in this way:

Localization customizations
Optimized charging is designed to be activated only in places where you spend most of your time, such as at home or at work and therefore does not work if the user’s habits are variable, such as when traveling. To help the device identify situations where this system should not be used, the following settings can be activated.
Open the Settings app from the watch and go to the Privacy> Location Services panel, then activate the Location Services item. Also from this screen, then go to System Services and activate the System Customization item, then go back and activate the Significant Positions item.
