Well I thought I would give my opinion after using the Watch Ultra for a month. Remember I came from a Watch 5 Pro with same capacity battery. As watch users know with Wear OS all the watches from 4, 5, 6 and 7 use basically the same Apps and OS.
I don't see any worse Battery life, depending on what I do I am seeing 4 days of use from full to 10%.
As for day to day use I am blown away just how fast and smooth the Watch Ultra is, Samsung says the all new chipset is 30% faster, well to me it is 50%. Apps and updates install way faster, the functionality with the larger screen makes a huge difference and ease of use. The look, this watch is very comfortable on wrist and really does look great, not cheap looking at all, I got the Silver/gray version. If you are sitting on the fence, just get it. No regrets at all.

ONLY the outer button bezel trim around watch body is plastic to the color. Watch bands click into the solid push and lockin method, no pins.

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2024Many years ago I bought a Hamilton Open Heart for 600€. The... moreSorry but just a ridiculous comment, so you are comparing a smart watch to your old analog of many years ago?.
There simply is no compaison, the GWU has a larger capacity, is faster and does more than Samsungs original all time best selling phone the Galaxy S5. The only thing this GWU does not do is actually take a picture through a lens.
Oh yeah, I can make calls and receive calls, make and receive SMS.
Buy goods and services.
Check my health, monitor heart, distance walked, Run or Bike, do BP, sleep monitor.
Check plane flight details.
Do emails and gmails.
Fall detection.
Emergency SOS calling.
Etc,
Etc,
And yes I use these features.

Ugly, 13 Aug 2024The ugliest watch everYes I thought that also, I don't like the orange band,
So I bought the silver version with gray band.
Once you actually see it and wear it, wow it is fabulous.
And I am coming from W4C and W5Pro.
This GWU is so smooth to use, the larger screen is perfect size and new chip set is fast, pairs extremely well with my S24U 1TB phone.
Yes it is expensive, but looks and features cost money, other GW look cheap in comparison.
Very happy with purchase.

Non Samsung phone can't install samsung health monitor app from play store (it won't show up).
This is needed for real time monitoring.
There are some other differences in the galaxy wear app, between Samsung and non Samsung phones, which seem unnecessary (like requiring only WiFi, vs allowing mobile data to keep the watch auto updated). Hopefully this is just an oversight

SlowLeaner, 09 Aug 2024On Watch 5 pro i could turn off Daily Activity notification... moreI'd like to know this too, I've been debating between the Watch 5 Pro and Watch Ultra because those have the biggest batteries in Samsung watches. Haven't decided...
Also if I go for the ultra I can't decide if I want the titanium grey or titanium silver... They both look very similar!! 🤔

On Watch 5 pro i could turn off Daily Activity notification in Developer mode.
But on the Ultra this function is not in developer mode anymore.
So HOW do I turn it off ? This is an annoying notification.
Help anyone

I've been tempted to upgrade to this watch from my OnePlus Watch 2. Glad to see it has a bigger battery!

Oh no. This design looks like they went to a children's school, had a competition for best watch design then simply built it without changes.
Its genuinely disgusting to look at.

Anonymous, 30 Jul 2024wish they copied Apple quality instead of just their designs.How did they copy Apple ?
Maybe Apple copied Casio Classic CA-500WE-1AEF ?
Anyway I do not get this Apple - Android war. When I buy a watch , i look for what I need to have and what would be nice to have, and at last price.
