Quick Summary
High quality images of Samsung's forthcoming Watch Ultra 2 have leaked, showing the design in full.
The watch looks much as it did before, with a couple of tweaks to the bezel, buttons and strap.
Samsung is preparing to launch the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and a full set of images of this device have leaked from a reliable source.
From the leaks, we can see minor changes that Samsung has made to the design, while much of the watch looks similar to the original 2024 Galaxy Watch Ultra.
The leak comes from Evan Blass who recently announced that he was retiring from leaking forthcoming devices – only for the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 images to appear in my inbox from one of Blass' old mailing lists.
Not a huge amount has changed, with the overall design of the Watch Ultra 2 the same as it was before. There are now numbers on the bezel rather than just sticks. That bezel looks like it might be slimmer and flatter than it was previously.
The button layout appears to be the same, with the orange highlighting now reserved for the central button. We've previously heard that these buttons have been improved on this new model and they do appear to be slightly differently mounted on the Watch Ultra 2.
The body of the watch appears to be a graphite colour, with black and green straps shown (with corresponding faces), with a different design of strap. Previously the Watch Ultra 2 launched with a corrugated style dive strap, but now it appears to be flatter in its design too.
It looks as thought the strap attachment will be the same, suggesting that straps will work with either device.
We already know that Samsung will be using the Snapdragon Wear Elite in its new devices, thank to confirmation by the company at Mobile World Congress.
It's expected that there will also be a bump in the battery capacity, which should see this watch lasting over three days.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is expected to launch alongside the Galaxy Watch 9 at an Unpacked event scheduled for 22 July.
That same event is expected to bring us a trio of folding phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Galaxy Z Flip 8.
