The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra was delivered to the office in three separate boxes – one for the watch itself, one for the “S/M/L” band, and a larger box containing both. Additionally, the watch comes with a USB-C to wireless charging puck. The standout feature of the Galaxy Watch Ultra is its resemblance to Apple’s Watch Ultra 2, but upon closer inspection, it is clear that it is a distinct device with unique features beyond its similar appearance and color scheme.
To begin with, the Apple Watch Ultra features a rectangular case and display, while the other option has a square case with a circular bezel and screen.
The Galaxy Watch Ultra does not feature a physical rotating bezel, a feature that many Galaxy Watch fans are disappointed about. However, it does have a software rotating bezel that activates when you move your finger along the edge.
On the side of the Galaxy Watch Ultra, there are three buttons.
The middle button, known as the “Quick button,” is set to open the workouts menu by default. Initially, users may find themselves instinctively reaching for this button as a home button, which can feel unnatural.
Additionally, some users may expect the button to rotate, but it does not.
A note about the tremendous vibration strength of the Galaxy Watch Ultra!
This timepiece feels large and heavy when first taken out of the box without the strap, but once worn, it sits comfortably on a regular wrist and doesn’t seem as bulky. The Galaxy Watch Ultra, equipped with the new Exynos W1000 SoC, immediately stands out with its fast and smooth performance, surpassing that of the Galaxy Watch6 series.
These are only a few of our initial thoughts. We will carefully test this further. Keep watching for updates!
