[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this to replace my watch 4 because the microphone broke and the body composition sensor never worked right. I only gave 4 stars because I did not need LTE but there was no non LTE version. The watch is also larger square-circle (round was better) and heavier. I notice the increased weight. I do like the features and the brightness is great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to upgrade to Ultra 2 from the original 32 GB version Ultra. I noticed a performance difference right away. Battery life, no more lagging when apps open. Gemini answers without lagging. Also, I could not stand the original silicone bracelet; it was giving me a skin rash. The new one somehow gives me no issue. So far, one week in, I don't see downsides yet.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy Watch Ultra2 because my life rarely happens in just one place. I’m a mom, I work in the financial industry, and I’m also a long-distance wife, so on any given day I’m balancing work, my children, home, and staying connected with my husband from miles away. I wanted a watch that could keep up with all of those parts of my life without adding another distraction.
The Ultra2 has become my little command center on my wrist. During a busy workday, I can quickly see a notification without constantly picking up my phone. When I’m cooking dinner, helping with homework, or running around with the kids, I can glance at my wrist and know whether something needs my attention. And when a message or call comes through from my husband, being able to see it immediately makes the distance feel just a little smaller.
I also love the wellness side of the Ultra2. As someone who spends so much time taking care of everyone and everything else, having my activity, sleep, and wellness information right there reminds me to pay attention to myself, too.
What surprised me most is that the Ultra2 doesn’t feel like another piece of technology demanding my attention. It actually helps me manage it. It’s beautiful, durable, customizable, and works seamlessly with my other Galaxy devices.
I chose it for the technology, but I’ve grown to love it for something much simpler: it helps me stay connected to the people, responsibilities, and moments that matter most to me.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the new Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 for the features and the battery life. So far it has not disappointed. The battery lasts for days. I haven't been able to use all of the features yet, however what I have used works great. My only complaint is the size of the watch. It is quite large for smaller arms/wrists.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I choose to upgrade from the Watch 5 pro. It was a great watch, but stared having issues lasting the entire day, and was becoming sluggish. I am very impressed with the upgrade to the Ultra 2. I was worried about the size, but it actually feels lighter, fits better, and size feels the same
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Ultra2 because of the larger battery mostly but I immediately noticed the improved smoothness, brighter screen and better fit. The Ultra2 in my opinion was worth the upgrade from my Watch Ultra. My Watch Ultra was only a year old and worked flawlessly but the combined improvements make the Ultra2 a much better experience. Don't assume that there is not much difference because they look a lot alike.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung S26 Ultra phone model because of its power and speed; besides, the artificial intelligence is incredible—I can do many things at once. It's also more compact than my previous favorite model.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I CHOSE to purchase the Watch Ultra 2. I've purchased each new watch every year & this new Ultra 2 exceeds my expectations. Im able to even ck my BP, among all the other great features that are awesome. Im very happy with it so far. Thanks Samsung!!
