The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is available in a single 47mm size and comes in Titanium Silver and Titanium Gray colours. The smartwatch features a 1.52-inch Super AMOLED display protected by Sapphire Crystal glass with up to 5,000 nits peak brightness, making it easier to read outdoors. It is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear Elite processor paired with 2GB RAM and 64GB storage. The watch packs an 800mAh battery, which Samsung says is 35% larger than the previous Ultra model, and supports wireless fast charging.
For durability, the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 carries IP69K, 10ATM, MIL-STD-810H and EN13319 certifications, allowing it to handle dust, water and even diving. It can automatically track dive depth, time and water temperature, while advanced diving features developed with Mares will be added through the Ultra 2 Diving app later this year.
The watch also introduces dedicated outdoor tracking tools, including Trail Run mode that provides elevation data, climbing progress and terrain impact. Samsung has also added Nutrition Alert, which estimates sweat loss relative to body weight and offers hydration guidance during runs.
