Customer Ratings & Reviews

PROS: * Premium look and feel * Beautiful bright display * Smooth WearOS UI * Battery life has improved (but could be better) * Robust fitness features * Larger size (this may be a CON for some, but for me it's a PRO) * Speaker and call quality is excellent CONS: * No rotating screen (should be here for an Ultra watch experience) * Some health features are locked to Samsung phones * Price Here it is. The possible answer to all Android fans who have wished for an "Ultra" watch that has WearOS running on it. I know I have been wishing for this for so long that I ended up going with a Garmin Forerunner 965 for my smart watch needs. I wanted something premium and practical - and a tool to help me stay motivated on exercising. The Forerunner does a great job at most things, but it obviously lacks WearOS as well as the flair that Samsung brings to their products. And boy do they bring the flair with the Galaxy Watch Ultra. I've also owned a Pixel Watch 1 and 2, a Samsung Galaxy Watch 4, 5, and 6 (the premium versions). I tend to rotate between a lot of them. But Samsung has always been the one I felt was the most premium and best all-around. It's a beautiful watch - that is evident as soon as you unbox it. It packs a heft, but the look of it differs from the majority of other watches. Yes, it borrows a lot of colors from the Apple Watch Ultra, but that is where the similarities end, really. If you don't get the orange band, you'll won't notice any similarities. The watch is round and square - if that makes sense. The squared border around the circular watch face gives it this unique design that to me looks so much better in person than the still pictures. It has a very premium look to it that you can customize to your liking depending on the band you use. Samsung has their own OEM bands, but there are plenty out in the wild that are much cheaper, though not as quality. Samsung's WearOS is snappy and fluid this time around. I haven't had any hiccups or glitches with the software since I put it on my wrist a week ago. Battery life continues to improve the more I use the watch. As of today, I get around 1.5-2 days with everything turned on and using the GPS for long runs or walks at least once a day. This also takes into consideration the LTE connectivity. I have mine on my Verizon plan and often don't even bring my phone on these runs, which I'm sure hits the battery even more. Though, coming from the Garmin, which boasts 3-week battery life, it is shocking to have to charge it every other day, but I know that's the price I want to pay for WearOS and a full-fledged smart watch experience. Once you get the band fitted properly to you, it's a very comfortable watch to wear. The crown balances the weight perfectly for me - I would say it's more comfortable than the Forerunner, which was surprising because of the massive size of it. Technology devices seem to keep going up and up in prices. I'm not sure why that is other than companies just wanted more and more profit, but for this watch to be $650, it really needs to be a premium product, which I think it is. But that's a large jump from the Galaxy Watch 7, which is in itself an excellent watch that will do 90% of what this Ultra watch does, so does it justify the high price? I'm not sure. It is cheaper than the Apple Watch Ultra, but Apple prices are nothing short of ridiculous a lot of the times. In a perfect world I would want Android to come up with an Ultra watch that was a hybrid between the Pixel watches and Samsung's. I think that's the only way to truly overthrow Apple in the smartwatch game. With that being said, I think the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is just as good as Apple's in the majority of ways. I for one like the design of this versus the Apple Ultra. As of now, this is my favorite WearOS watch I've had and I have a feeling I will always come back to it, even with the other watches I own. If you don't mind the price and desire the most premium Android watch you can get, this is it and it's not even close.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is a powerhouse. It looks premium, feels tough, and performs flawlessly. The display is incredibly bright and clear even in sunlight. Battery life easily lasts up to three days with full use. Health and fitness tracking are spot-on, and the new action button is super handy for workouts or quick tools. Everything runs smooth and fast, from apps to navigation. It’s stylish enough for daily wear and rugged enough for adventures. Samsung really nailed the balance between performance, design, and durability. Totally worth it — the best smartwatch I’ve ever owned.

Coming from a Galaxy Watch 5 Pro that I’ve been wearing for a few years now, I was expecting a similar experience with the Ultra. When you live with a watch day to day for a couple of years it kind of just fades into the background. I had the opportunity to upgrade to the Ultra and figured replacing the two-year-old technology was probably a good idea. As I said, I expected a similar experience to the GW 5 Pro, but I’m happy to say the Ultra is a vast improvement and I find myself interacting with it more and taking advantage of the features the watch has to offer. It’s not so much that the Ultra has so many new and wonderful features over the GW 5 as it is the speed and processing power of the new chip set being leaps and bounds above my previous Galaxy watch. I think the main reason my GW 5 became more of a wristwatch than a smart watch was the laggy interface with everything from the complications on the face to simply unlocking it with a pattern lock. This is not the case with the GW Ultra. There is zero lag on the interface compared to my last G watch and that alone made it worth the upgrade. In addition to the snappy interface, the brightness of the display is noticeably improved. The GW 5 topped out at 1000 nits and the Ultra has tripled that to an amazingly easy to read 3000 nits no matter how bright the sun is.In regard to the usability of the display, one of the new features on the Ultra is Night Mode. As a person who works at night, I can attest to the advantages of the “easy on the eyes” all red display at night. It’s definitely one of my favorite features. My only complaint is that I wish it was available on more, if not all of the available watch faces. Currently, Samsung only offers the night mode on two of their watch faces and both of those are analog. I prefer a digital watch face and I do hope that they will make the night mode available on more faces in a future update. The squared circle design of the watch may not be for everyone. Personally, I like it very much. It is a very large watch (47mm) but I have wrists on the larger side and the watch size suites me just fine. I always put a bumper guard or case on my smart watches and in this case I went with the Spigen rugged armor case. It adds a little more bulk to the watch, but I can’t see spending $650 for something that will inevitably smash into things and not protect it when possible. I haven’t found either accessory to impede the usability of the watch in any major way. Another one of my favorite features is the built in LTE. My GW 5 was wi-fi/bluetooth only. I love the idea of my watch being a stand-alone device especially if I’m running, biking, or any other outdoor activity. Having the ability to leave my phone with its extra bulk at home and still enjoy all of the features of streaming music or podcasts, taking and making calls, and google assistant is definitely worth the couple of dollars that your carrier charges a month to add a watch to your account. There has even been the occasional time when I left the house without my phone and had to turn around. Now I can definitely make do with the watch by itself (temporarily) with the addition of LTE. Battery life is much improved over my GW 5. Between the larger capacity battery and the improved chipset, 48 hours of use is easy to achieve. If you play with the power save mode and are mindful of what you’re doing, I’m sure 72 hours or more are well within the Ultra’s capabilities. I personally don’t sleep with the watch on just because I find it uncomfortable. Not just this watch. I can’t sleep with watches or rings or just about any other accessory. That said, my watch goes on the charger whenever I’m asleep. I had to force myself to test it for 48 hours and it held up just fine. Also, since I don’t sleep with the watch on, I can’t really speak to it’s sleep tracking ability. I would mention however, one of the new tricks of the Ultra is the sleep apnea diagnosing feature. If that’s something you're interested in and you don’t mind sleeping with a watch on, this might be a selling point for you. Overall, the Galaxy Watch Ultra is a vast improvement over the Galaxy Watch 5 pro that I had been using. My favorite features are definitely the elimination of UI lag and the huge improvement in display. My biggest criticisms would be the lack of options for watch faces with night mode and the lack of a rotating bezel or functional crown for scrolling. I think Samsung missed the boat on adding one of these features. If you’re an Android user the Galaxy Watch Ultra is a bit pricey at $650 ($200 more than my GW 5 pro) but I would say the improvements are worth the price of admission. Also, there are trade in offers available if you're upgrading from a previous Galaxy watch. I am very happy with my Galaxy Watch Ultra up to this point and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

I was currently a Samsung Watch 5 user and I wanted an upgrade. When I saw the new Samsung 7 Ultra, although pricey, this watch has the coolness of the bigger, non-smart watches I used to have like the ones from Invicta. My watch 5 was a 40mm and the new 7 Ultra is a 47mm. Bigger, but if you have had bigger watches before and were fine with them, this one will appease you as well. It’s nice! As far as aesthetics, the look and feel of this is amazing, if you have ever worn a bigger watch, you will not even notice this one. Even while walking, mowing, swimming, chilling, this watch’s feel is seamless and non-intrusive. Now for the features, I am blown away at the improvements in the Samsung Health app for the Watch 7. I really liked the health app on the watch 5 but the watch 7 has opened up additional features that really step up the health game. I really like the Sleep Score which seems to do a much better job of analyzing my sleep. Even if I have to get up to go to the bathroom and come back to sleep, it seems to recognize that this is not but just an interruption in the sleep pattern. The Watch 7 measures the entire night and has a more accurate sleep score. It also offers suggestions such as less alcohol before bed and other things that may aid in better sleep scores. Some may think this is a big watch to sleep in but it only took me 2 nights to get used to it. I do think its important to not have it too loose on your wrist or you could get inconsistent results. I always check mine before going to bed and have been pleased with the accuracy of the measurements after the first couple nights wearing it. One health measurement feature I really like is the Energy Score. Within the Health app on my phone, when you select it, it shows you how your sleep, sleep consistency and other factors play into your overall Energy score. It will also show you if something “needs attention”. For example, in one of my pics, it shows how my “Previous Day Activity” needed attention. Very interesting because it was raining off and, on that day, and I really didn’t get outside much. The amount of depth that you can dig into your daily habits and sleep and activity is amazing with this watch. I am still discovering things daily. Since this was the LTE version, I added it to $40+ setup fees, especially since it was all done online and very quickly. I love Verizon because of the coverage but their fees and costs are getting to be too much. The call quality was amazing on the watch, I was able to answer calls and, in most cases, as long as I was speaking pretty close to the watch, no one could really tell whether or not it was my phone or the watch. I did have an interesting thing happen. I was not able to make calls from the watch but quickly realized that the app I use for preventing butt dials was causing it. It’s called “Call confirmation, it basically makes you swipe to confirm a call. Its very helpful as prevents butt dials but prevents calls from the watch unless you have your phone there too and can swipe. I need to see if there is a way around this one. For the Battery life, I do not have power saving on. I know you can customize the power savings, and I may play with just turning off certain features but since I work from home, charging is quick and easy for me. I can generally fully charge in no much over an hour or so. As for the life, I am getting anywhere between 43-49+ hours on a single charge. I only let it go to about 3% so I probably could have gotten another hour on it. I also have the Adaptive display and always on turned on and set to activate with a wrist turn. I didn’t do this on my old Watch 5 but I love it on this new bigger Watch 7 ultra. I think it makes it more like a normal watch, so you don’t have to tap it to see the time. I have seen some comments about display and bezel, they don’t really impact me at all and I have not noticed any issues. I do think its very cool that the face that I am using has a compass built in and rotates as the display is on. I like to watch the space station when it flies over and this will be great because now I don’t need another compass app to open up and map the path of the station as it passes over. I will say I am very happy with this watch. It is a huge improvement over my older Watch 5. The health features only make this worthwhile. The titanium build is solid and feels amazing. The watch band and ability to snap new ones in and out is great. I have a hot tub so I use the feature to put it into water mode regularly and have not had any issues with it, nor did I on the watch 5. Its just a nice feature so you don’t have to take it off and on. This was a great investment, and I would highly recommend it to others, just make sure you like this size watch or have had a similar size before.

Package Contents Samsung has hit a home run with their Ultra Titanium smartwatch. The watch comes in a well made package with all that you need to get up and running. It comes with a USB-C to smartwatch charger. It's well made and has a flexible cable. It's typical of smartwatch manufactures to include a short charge cable and Samsung isn't any different in this. It would be good to see Samsung include a 6ft. charge cable in the future with their watches, but I expected Samsung to be similar to others by including a 3ft charge cable. I'm happy to see that Samsung has moved forward by using a USB-C cable. Mine came with a grey watchband which matches the grey color that is seen around the outer part of the watch. The silicon band is just soft enough to be comfortable to wear all day and strong enough to endure during exercise and hiking trips for a long time. It has a metal clasp that I expect to be able to take some abuse for yeas of me exercising and mountain bike riding. Construction The first thing I noticed about the watch is it's construction. It is built incredibly well. The watch case is not only super strong, it looks great. Samsung has put a lot of time in designing the watch case to look amazing on the wrist. I have the 47mm version which fits my writs perfectly. It's watch face is large and easy to read. I also like the tick marks around the bezel. I think it adds to the overall look of the watch. It was easy for me to connect the watch band and I didn't have any problems disconnecting the band due to the push button release. The release buttons are metal and blend in with the main part of the watch. There are three buttons on the side of it. The main center button is metal and is somewhat protected due to a raised part of the watch case but unfortunately the buttons to either side of it are not as protected. It would have been nice if it was similar to the center button regard this. It's not that big of a deal as I don't expect to be hitting that part of the watch against anything. Use The touch screen is very bright and clear. The resolution of the screen and brightness stood out to me. It's also very responsive. I didn't have any problems with the touch sensitivity. The watch's batter lasts me around 50 hours. I will be adjusting settings to try to get more hours out of it before having to charge. I really like the brightness of the screen and health app related settings, so I'm not expecting to get a week out of the battery, but I should be able to extend it to 70 plus hours by making a few adjustments. Charging the watch is simple using the included magnetic charger and I feel that it charges quickly. I've used the Ultra watch to track my running sessions and I've worn it out riding my mountain bike. It was comfortable through out the runs and bike rides. While doing that I was sweating and that didn't cause any problems with the watch tracking the sessions. Final Thoughts I like that Samsung has stepped it up with the Ultra Watch. The construction is nothing short of amazing. I like the feel and really like the very bright high res display. I think Samsung has done a great job with the design and construction of it. I had no problems connecting the watch to an Android phone. I would like to see Samsung support connecting to tablets and not just phones, but that isn't going to be a problem for most as most people, like me, will be connecting the Ultra to their phone. I would also like to see the next iteration of the Ultra to have a case that is all metal instead of the perimeter part of the case being plastic. That part of the case, for the version I have, is grey. If I want to change the band and use an orange band or some other color, it will look a bit strange. That wouldn't be a problem if the whole case was metal, but that's a small complaint about aesthetics. Overall, I really like the watch and like to see where Samsung is going with their smart watches.

I absolutely love my Galaxy Watch Ultra in Titanium White! It looks sleek, modern, and high-end the white titanium really pops and gets compliments all the time. It’s lightweight but feels super sturdy, and the 47mm face is the perfect size for both readability and comfort. The LTE feature is incredibly convenient I can leave my phone at home and still stay fully connected. Calls, texts, streaming music all from my wrist without a hitch. The battery life holds up surprisingly well even with LTE and all-day use. Fitness tracking is spot on, and the health features like heart rate monitoring and sleep tracking are accurate and easy to use. The display is sharp and bright, even in full sun. Overall, this is the best smartwatch I’ve owned. If you're looking for something with style, substance, and serious features, this is the one.

Absolutely Love It! The Galaxy Watch Ultra is everything I hoped for and more. The titanium silver finish looks sleek and premium it really stands out without being flashy. It’s lightweight but feels incredibly durable, and the 47mm size is just right large enough to read easily, but still comfortable on the wrist all day. The LTE connectivity is a game-changer. I can leave my phone behind and still take calls, respond to messages, and stream music right from my wrist. Battery life is solid, even with heavy use, and the performance is lightning-fast with no lag. Fitness tracking, heart rate monitoring, and GPS are all super accurate. The display is bright, responsive, and gorgeous even in direct sunlight. If you're on the fence, don’t be. This smartwatch is absolutely worth it. Samsung nailed it with the Galaxy Watch Ultra!

Excellent Smartwatch with Great Features I’ve been using Samsung smartwatches for a while now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The design is sleek and modern, with a clear, vibrant display that looks great indoors and outdoors. The battery life is solid, and it easily lasts me more than a day with regular use. What I appreciate most is the smooth integration with my phone—notifications, calls, and messages come through seamlessly. The health tracking features are also very accurate, especially the heart rate monitor, sleep tracker, and workout detection. Overall, it’s a reliable, stylish, and feature-packed smartwatch that I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for a powerful wearable.

Trying to capitalize on the “Ultra” name from its competitor aside, the Galaxy Watch ‘Ultra’ is taking the place of the ‘Classic’ from previous generations. Sadly this does not also take the amazing rotating bezel from the classic series. But that would be my only complaint. The screen is amazingly bright and crisp. I’ve had a galaxy watch of one form or another since the Galaxy watch 3. And my favorites have been the classic with its nice large diving watch kind of style and the nice rotating bezel making for easy use when wearing gloves. Sadly that feature as I said isn’t here but we get an even larger screen here and a larger battery as well for longer time between needing to drop it on the charging puck. As pictured I received the Titanium Silver model with its slate gray/blue body and marine band, it really looks amazing. If you’ve owned any Samsung watch from the last couple of years feature wise it’s not all that different here, you still have all the same sports and exercise features, maps and media playback, but with the larger screen replying to messages on device is much easier with its full keyboard and swipe typing capabilities. A 3rd button joins the 2 familiar buttons from before with this new one being partially programmable for different features, from exercise selection, a flashlight (turns the face white and ramps the brightness to max, kind of handy with how bright the ultra can get, an instant water lock button if you swim often, or a stop watch for those that run laps, or do other competitive timed events. I myself am not a big fitness freak, one look at me could tell you that, but I appreciate the reminders to get up and move around because my job has me at a desk for most of my day, and the little buzz is a good reminder to go stretch my legs and move for a bit. Keeps you from getting sore when stuck in an office. My favorite feature of all however is GPS and navigation. I ride motorcycle and don’t really care to have my phone on a mount on the bike because If something goes bad on a ride, I rather not also have to replace a $1000+ phone on top of medical bills and bike repairs, so I use my watch for gps navigation. Also it keeps the oled screen of the phone safe in a pocket from direct sunlight. I can just wear the watch face on the inside of my wrist so it’s facing down while I ride, but I can quickly turn my wrist to check the map, and the turn by turn instructions can go to my earbud via Bluetooth. And since the whole watch is cellular connected I can easily just leave my phone behind altogether if I don’t need to for wherever I am going because I am still connected and reachable. I’d dock points for copying the name, but honestly the moment the competitor chose that name I knew Samsung would do it too, they both keep taking each others ideas year after year. This is no different, but with Samsung even if you don’t decide to fork over the extra money for this model you get most of the features aside from the action button in the others this year. Just a little smaller screen and less battery. If your using an android, and want a watch for fitness or fun, or just to be able to leave the phone behind to keep yourself from doomscrolling TikTok the Samsung watch is a great choice.

What a great watch for Samsung phone users! Great watch face options, good health tracking, and seamless integration/hand-off with my Ultra 25 phone. Battery life is better than my Apple Ultra 2, but nowhere near my Garmin Fenix. I use Garmin Fenix for multi-day hikes and my Samsung Ultra for my daily around-town wear. It looks much nicer than the Fenix. The included Google data plan is awesome. Overall, a wonderful smart watch that rivals the the Garmin offerings and, IMHO, blows away the Apple Ultra in functionality and integration.

Samsung has taken a whole new design to their watch series in this release from the traditional “rounded” style to the alternative “square” styling. This new look is aggressive and moves Samsung into the non-conservative look. While this look is designed for sports and ruggedness, it still pairs really well in a suit and tie in the “Titanium Silver” color as tested. When not in a formal setting, this watch has a number of sporty and gym bound features to support all of the various activities out there. One notable key feature added is the gesture controls and potentially life-saving tools for health-related criteria as a part of it’s bioactive sensor upgrades/changes. While one of these has been available outside of the US for some time now, it is great to see here in the US; noting from my use of a Galaxy Watch Classic 5. This is the Samsung Health Monitor; it does require initial and continued calibration to ensure accuracy to a Pulse Ox/Blood Pressure tool. One highly noted health and safety feature added is the sleep apnea detection helps to record sleep patterns and breathing patterns to pass onto your physician and recommend you to see a doctor if need be. This will not change pre-diagnosed findings in an individual of having Sleep Apnea. This is one of Samsung’s current highly noted goals in tracking your own wellness via a wearable. The ”quick button” is customizable, limited to what Samsung feels is the most important and hopefully this will change in the future in one their next feature updates. AS. Of now, it can be set to default to start your workouts or custom to specific workouts, water lock, flashlight, or stopwatch (not in any particular order). The other buttons are still customizable as well. Energy. So far this watch under heavy use if finding itself to last a little over a day, but the watch does need time to calibrate itself to the user. The watch charger uses the current standard of USB-C to charge itself and rapid charges. Energy Score, refers to YOU, looking at your daily activity, sleep, and heart rate data points, and includes tips on wellness. Currently, I have this setup on one of the recommended service providers tied directly with my phone service and have not had any issues or complaints with connectivity. The watch easily switches to WiFi and Bluetooth connection as needed and when selected to. Rugged. Overall this watch does have added thickness compared to my other Galaxy watches and uses a much wider band with dual pin-holes for closure. The included Marine band fits nicely on your wrist while having sweat release areas to let your wrist breath more easily. There are additional bands to purchase if needed to suit your style, use, and need. Overall, Samsung has a way to keep their watch looking classy while being able to support their user in various ways. I can highly recommend this watch as even during my time with it, there’s always something new to learn from the watch itself, through a tip, my exercise routines, and even my sleep patterns.

Love this Watch, its my daily commuter watch and love the look and functionality of the watch. Feels rugged and well built. Plenty of great looking watch faces built in and available to download from the store. changed out the watch band a few times and love how the mechanism works to remove the bands very easy and intuitive. battery life is pretty good as well, I can get at least 2 days on a charge but leave the always on display all the time.

The smart watch offers a durable titanium build, a bright and clear display, and solid battery life that lasts several days. The health and fitness tracking features are comprehensive and reliable, making it great for everyday use and active lifestyles. The user interface is smooth and easy to navigate, and it integrates well with the Android ecosystem. Overall, it's a stylish, high-performance smartwatch that my son loves it.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is a significant upgrade and easily the best Android smartwatch on the market right now. Samsung nailed the 'Ultra' concept by delivering exceptional premium build quality with its tough titanium case and large, stunning 47mm display. The 3,000-nit screen is incredibly bright and easy to read, even in direct sunlight. The performance is blazing fast thanks to the new Exynos W1000 processor, making the Wear OS experience fluid and responsive—there is zero lag. Health tracking is robust, with excellent features like Sleep Apnea detection and the useful Energy Score providing actionable insights into recovery. The inclusion of dual-frequency GPS and an improved heart rate sensor is great for outdoor adventurers. The only area that prevents a perfect score is the battery life. While it's better than a standard Galaxy Watch, averaging about 2 days of use with all features enabled (like AOD) is good, but falls short of the true multi-week endurance offered by some competitors. Also, at its premium price point, some users might find that the titanium casing is prone to minor dings from everyday bumps. This watch is a massive success for anyone who wants a rugged, feature-packed smartwatch with an unparalleled software experience.

I've spent the last few years using a Garmin watch exclusively. Before that the only experience I had with a Wear OS based watch was a Fossil watch and it was a terrible experience. That said, I was pleasantly surprised for the most part with the Galaxy Watch Ultra, but also a little let down at the same time. For starters the build quality on this thing is impeccable. Without pulling up the specs I can tell you that it has an extremely bright display with amazing colors. The body is solid metal with the exception of the ring on the face and the three quick buttons. The band is ok, its neither great nor bad. It could get a little uncomfortable after a while, but it worked really well while working on, having flex as well as holes in it for breathing. It would have been nice if there was a better retention device on it for holding the excess length as it can get flappy, come out of the restraint and just look floppy. The weight of the device is a little on the heavy side, feeling ever so slightly heavier than my Garmin, but nothing you would really notice. The backside of the watch with the sensors extrudes a bit which caused a bit of discomfort over time paired with the weight, and if the watch was not tight enough, it would hit my write bone when moving a lot (running mainly). The problem arises from the fact that there wasn't an adjustment that was just right with this band to keep it just tight enough, but not too tight. For this I would recommend a new wristband. Battery life on this is much better than I thought it was going to be. My previous experience with the Fossil watch had me at less than a full day of battery life. The Galaxy Watch Ultra lasts me 2.5 days on average. In battery saver mode I can make it 5 days (according to the battery metrics, I haven't tried it). That said I did make a tweak to the display settings so the watch face wasn't on all the time, but instead only when I twisted my wrist to look at it. This setting worked very well and only on a few occasions did it not understand I was trying to read the watch. The software for the device is very good. I didn't experience and hitches or slowdowns when using the watch. It just did what I asked it to. It feels very responsive and fluid with the animations. The included Samsung apps are nice, with good apps for tracking your sport activities (walking, running, swimming, hiking, etc), more accurate steps/stair monitoring (it was comically bad on my Garmin), and a plethora of health apps that I simply lack the know how to utilize. I will say that the Sleep monitoring app is a little redundant because with the battery life the way it is, you're most likely going to be charging the watch while you sleep, so you're going to missing data every third day. The customization of the watch I feel is a little disappointing though. While it offers a wide range of stock clock faces, I couldn't find one that was just right for me. I ended up settling for the default watch face as it has the most customization available, but it still didn't do what I wanted. As an example, I am in the military and in my job we express direction in mils, but the watch only supports degrees. Same thing with location, where it will give you you're location but only in lat/long while I need MGRS. There was also only 2 watch faces that I could find that had the compass on the watch face itself. Additionally on the customization side, you're very limited on what you can bind your buttons to. That was one of the marketing pushes for the watch with the Quick Action button and the two other buttons. With my Garmin I used the Quick Button to get my location and altitude. I had to download an app to do that from the store, but I found out that I can't bind that app to the button. You also can only bind one action to each button. It gives you the option in the software to be able to set a long press, short press, double press to the buttons, but you can only bind one of those. So say I want a quick press to bring up "My Exercises" but a long press to open up the compass, I can't do that. I feel like that is low hanging fruit for Samsung that would make the watch a lot more accessible for people. Finally on that topic, volume control. There is no easy way to turn up or down your watch while its playing audio. There is the drawer that has sound control, but its on/off and vibrate. If you're in an app that has audio playing, you have to use the app to control the volume level. I found this rather annoying as I would be playing music from the watch and have to get through multiple clicks in order to turn it down when I needed to. I really wish they would have made the ring on the face rotatable so that it could be utlized by apps to various things like volume, or with the compass a means of declination. Overall though I do enjoy this watch and will be replacing my Garmin with it for day to day use. Because of the battery life I won't be able to for my longer field expeditions, but it works great as a daily watch.

This is a great all around watch. Its a little bulkier than previous samsung watches I've owned. It has many functions on it and its my favorite samsung watch I've owned. The battery takes awhile to charge if you let it get down too low. The battery life is fairly decent. I usually go about 2.5 to 3 days without charging it.

Got this watch to replace my Watch Classic. Major upgrade. The screen is bright and easy to read in bright sunlight. The watch has some weight but is not too heavy to be cumbersome. I love the "oversized" look of the watch face and the general aesthetic of the design. I opted for the white band which compliments the darker watch bezel design that I ordered. Flipping between apps and screens is very snappy. I am able to get several days on a charge using factory watch face settings. I am still using the factory watch face. I tested the apnea feature. The feature requires two nights of solid data, but it took me three nights to get the data. The first night I didn't wear the watch high enough on my arm (too close to the wrist). This is clearly shown in the instructions, but I wanted to test it out being that it is a little uncomfortable wearing it higher on the arm. Luckily you only need to do it for two nights. It did detect that I have mild apnea (which I suspected I did), so I am going to wait a month and test again. Once you get usable results from the test, the watch turns the feature off so you will have to re-enable if you want to test again. Overall I am extremely happy with this watch.

The watch has a lot to offer, especially if you're trying to keep track of all of your vitals and workouts. The price was a little high compared to the rest, but I really like to watch. I like how you can change the faces and how they show a lot of information on one face. I also get a lot of compliments on the fluorescent band.

The Samsung Bespoke Galaxy Watch Ultra in Titanium Gray feels like a very well-built watch. The titanium body gives it a premium, sturdy feel on the wrist, and the overall design looks clean and modern without being too flashy. It definitely feels like something that can handle daily use and a bit of rough handling. Feature-wise, it covers pretty much everything you’d expect: fitness tracking, heart rate, GPS, notifications, LTE for staying connected without your phone, and plenty of customization options with watch faces and apps. The screen is bright and sharp, and navigation through the menus is smooth. Overall, it’s a solid smartwatch with excellent build quality and a good mix of smart and fitness features. Not necessarily a “must-have” upgrade if you already have a recent smartwatch, but if you want something that feels premium and durable, this one fits that well.

I have used various smart watches in the past from Samsung, Apple and Google and this is the best I've used on the Android side that's for sure. This is an LTE connected smartwatch which means you can sign up for a cell plan which connects to your phones plan so you can leave your phone at home and take it out and have service for phone calls, texts and GPS for like Location services without bringing your phone with you. This is a 47mm case which I find a tag big I prefer a smaller watch like the pixel watch but I like the durability of it so it's a trade off. Specs Sapphire crystal glass Samsung Exynos W1000 SOC Titanium frame 32GB of storage 2GB ram I have used other recent watches with older Exynos chips and the battery life was mediocre. After using this for about 5 days I can tell this will last longer. As far as performance goes it's snappy. I am using the default watch face but there is plenty to choose from in the Galaxy gear app. I am using this with a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. This watch can detect workouts fairly quickly and end them quickly as well which is nice if you don't start one manually. There is also a new action button as well which I set up to start walking exercise workout and that's great they added it. As far as workout monitoring and etc I find it accurate enough no complaints
