[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a few different series of Galaxy watches, and I do not upgrade every generation (this is my third Galaxy watch upgrade). Coming from a watch 5 pro, I was anticipating slightly less battery life but a trade-in value that would last for the next few years. I personally only use this watch in Bluetooth only mode even though there's only an Bluetooth w/ LTE purchase option in the US.
Two things I love:
First, this watch looks beautiful and feels like a professional business watch, whereas the watch 5 pro looked more like a smartwatch. I have the white version and I keep it on a watch face customized to my company colors.
Second, The battery life rivals The 5 pro since I only use Bluetooth. I have noticed it lasts just as long as my previous 5 pro watch did (about 3 days).
Other thoughts:
Key: If Samsung wants to be the leader in the smartwatch market, I would love to see Samsung implement a quality camera into these watches (50MP under the screen wide angle, same as the s25 ultra). If they're meant to be a standalone device at times they should truly have standalone capabilities for video calls etc. this is the biggest gripe I have.
Also I would love to see them bring back the Bluetooth only version for the ultra version. I buy the ultra strictly for the battery life and don't want to pay for a service plan, but realize that's a personal preference.
While I probably won't upgrade again for a few more years this is truly the best smartwatch I'v ever owned.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Ultra watch so much that I ended up buying two different colors. It does everything for you with such accuracy that makes me feel comfortable trusting the information it provides to me. I definitely love Samsung. You won't be disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My watch Ultra is truly ergonomic, comfortable and very durable. My work environment is construction and it is incredible how it resists bumps, scratches and water. I love it for its ease of use while I work and thus take care of my Galaxy S25 Ultra phone. I am totally satisfied with the Samsung company because their products are quite innovative and of excellent quality.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great watch but not having the bezel that I always felt set these watches apart from the rest is a huge bummer. I get that they added the action key and it's already a little thick, but I would give up the action key in an instant if it meant to have the physically turning bezel back.
