[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was an upgrade from the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic for me. I chose the Ultra 2 because it seemed like a big enough leap in capability and features to warrant it.
The battery life is absolutely excellent when compared with my old watch. All of the features are a lot more responsive with the upgraded processor. My only complaint is that it was easier to get a clean ECG on my previous watch versus the Ultra 2. This one is much more finicky.
I would still recommend this watch to anyone who is looking to upgrade, especially if battery life was an issue for you before.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really excited to get tgus watcg. It has some really important features I need to monitor my health condition. I followed the instructions & after fully charging it & put it on, loved, but the batterydid not last over 30 hours. I sent it off for repair. When it was returned, the battery still pnly lasted around 30 hours.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always had Samsung Smart Watches - the original watch, the 3, 4, 6 Classic. I chose the Ultra 2 this time around for a couple of reasons: 1. To see what the Ultra experience was all about, and 2. It was time for an upgrade. I must say that I'm not disappointed in the watch at all. In fact, I'm quite impressed with it! Although it has a 38.5mm display, it doesn't necessarily feel larger than my previous watches, which is a good thing. It's larger than the 1st Ultra, but from all I've read & seen, physically it is a much better fit. It is quite comfortable to me, as I'm even able to sleep while wearing it. Which leads me to another point of why I chose it. And that's the sleep monitoring! It does a better job than my Watch 6 Classic. The Health app also seems improved on this watch. Three brightness of this watch is 2nd to none. Amazing output, even in daylight. Clear. Vibrant. Those are the words I can beat describe it. The band feels super comfortable too, which is something I was slightly concerned about before making my purchase. I can honestly say that it doesn't feel like a chore to wear this watch everyday like my 6 Classic did. I'm glad I made the purchase!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded my original Samsung Watch Ultra with the Ultra 2, and, so far, I'm enjoying it! The Ultra 2 has a better battery that lasts even longer than my original Ultra (BTW, never had any issues with the battery of the original Ultra watch), and finally supports fast charging! Also, it's a smidge thinner and lighter than my Watch Ultra which is a good reason I chose the Ultra 2 watch. Despite some reviews that claim the Ultra 2 gets very hot while fast charging, my watch doesn't seem to experience that kind of issue. Being health conscious, however, I'm not seeing any significant changes or upgrades to Samsung Health features with the Ultra 2 compared to my original Ultra watch especially after the most recent updates Samsung sent out a couple of months ago. I've owned all Samsung watches so far and I strongly recommend them!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My experience with the Ultra 2 has been phenomenal - it's my first foray into wearable technology, and I'm excited to explore its full potential and learn how to use it to its fullest extent.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 because I wanted something that would actually hold me accountable, and it has. The daily activity and sleep tracking is the most reliable I've used, and the reminders get me moving without being irritating. Workouts, heart rate, and sleep all log consistently, and the data is detailed enough to be useful and insightful. Battery life sealed the decision. In power saving mode I get close to four days on a single charge, which means I can wear it overnight for sleep tracking and not worry about charging it on short trips or weekends away.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I choose to upgrade from the Watch Ultra 2024. This watch feels lighter and thinner. Battery life, for me, is at least twice the old watch. Overall, a great watch!
