I’m a little bit at a loss about how to start this Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra review. The South Korean tech giant’s rugged smartwatch has been rumoured for a while before it was officially announced in July 2024 at the company’s annual Galaxy Unpacked event alongside the much-anticipated Galaxy Ring and the seventh-generation Galaxy Watch.
The Galaxy Watch Ultra is exactly what I expected from Samsung, for better or worse. It’s a premium wearable with a ton of functionality that misses out on some features that we kind of expect from rugged wearables, such as navigation.
