Good review and thank you. I pre-ordered the ultra with a white band. The orange band made me feel like I worked at a gun range 😂 (no shade).

[@TheJabberTech]

Imma pick up a white band too

[@gagebunch3507]

I pre ordered the Galaxy Watch Ultra titanium gray with black Trail Band I actually got 2 bands cause of a pre order offer. I traded in my watch 6 classic and got 350 $ off. I pre ordered on july 13th , UPS delivered mine today too. I just got mine set up with My S24 Ultra. I preferthe trail band better it is very comfortable. Only paid 223 dollars. I would love to see you reciew the trail loop band from Samsung it looks awesome !!! Great video!!!! I love bigger watches too.

[@Chuzado_117]

Lucky mine is still on its way I can't wait

[@gagebunch3507]

​@Chuzado_117 enjoy it is an awesome watch.

[@myfakeguuglaccount8307]

Just got my grey one. Holy mole; the thing DEFINITELY looks awesome in person! Also got the silver Buds Pro3. None of the issues making the news noted. And they sound great!

[@axetrops]

Pre-ordered the white buds3 pro. Probably should have pre-ordered the silver one so it doesn't look like the airpods. I just like the white ones cuz I have the white buds2 pro.

[@sparx2391]

Mine is due tomorrow, how did you get your one so quick

[@myfakeguuglaccount8307]

​@@sparx2391Ordered on day 1.

[@robgreer2486]

Can you change the watch face like you can with watch 7?

[@BlackSheriff84]

It's $1297 in Australia. I managed to get it for $649 with the free additional strap

[@ibby81ae]

How did you get it so cheap?

[@robertadams3461]

Yeah 649 is cheap, did you trade some gear or get some crazy discount code?

[@jessewintermute8031]

I got mine for $240. Galaxy 6 classic trade in and $50 off. 1200 in Australia? You could fly here, have a mini vacation and pick one up and head back for that.

[@bigmaxcc]

Jesus Christ why’s the price so high in Australia it’s the same price I paid for my 15 pro max 😳😱

[@djmackj]

In Canada got it with the Fold 6, the discounted price with Educational discount was $380

[@tmr2757]

Would like to see a real test of the sensors, gps, sleep tracking etc....thx🎉

[@TheJabberTech]

Coming soon!

[@mihailaurentiu5050]

Basically the same watch 90% as the previous one,but with a different number!Small steps upgrades as Samsung start using to do,but higher prices year by year!

[@dennishaughton4554]

I am not a fan of the Sammy’s trail bands. They need to b wider. I am glad it’s free.

[@fabio080883]

Thanks, you helped me to set up my band!

[@Ariozo111]

Battery now after this week seems it´s great, have like 70-75% from morning to next morning. Not been doing any workout as always use my Garmins there, but for all daily things and tracking it´s looking very solid so far on battery. And i do even have my LTE going when jumps in when to far from phone. Even my Fold6 after this week is better than i thought on battery, so far so good on batterys on the new samsung tech. :) And for my taste Samsung could have push it to 52-55mm and it had been perfect. :)

[@sparx2391]

How is it on LTE I heard a lot of LTE watches get hot

[@Specialist7]

I got the orange/gray with both gray bands, getting used to it. Just as big as my Polar Grit X2 Pro, wish they copied that circle lol but its fine. I like the night mode so far. I'll test it at the gym tomorrow, maybe go hiking. I just hope the battery is as good as my 5 Pro as that one lasts 3-4 days for me.

[@sparx2391]

Definitely of the best reviews ive seen The buttons are for removing the band ,to install just push it in until it clicks , i didnt like the pins on the old design ,these look much easier, mine is due for delivery on 21/7 ,I prefer this new design ,traded in my 6 classic

[@TheJabberTech]

Thanks!

[@carbullzone953]

I preordered the titanium grey with the black trail strap and the orange Peakform as the freebie for $269 with the trade-in of the Watch 4 Classic. To avoid missing the rotating bezel, I'm getting the Watch 6 Classic and trading in an old Watch Active. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the Ultra, but I have to say it's a great looking and feeling watch, and not heavy at all in my opinion. The whole Apple Watch comparison isn't relevant since this watch is a remake of the Samsung Gear Sport from about six years ago, just bigger. Even the orange band isn't exclusive to Apple. But I chose the orange strap because the fanboys are all up in arms over a strap color. LOL!!!

[@malcomerogers4504]

Will the 5 pro charging puck work with the 7 ultra?

[@Wankidy]

Mine works

[@nissanzx1]

Thank you. I have information that this watch does not accept reverse charging from S24 Ultra - is that true?

[@TheJabberTech]

Yes. That feature is gone 😔

[@Capie]

Yes, it is gone. However, you can plug the phone charger into your device's USB-C port and charge it through your device (phone, tablet, etc.) when away from home.

[@nemarec]

I'll wait for the 8 to trade up for the rotating besel option on the ultra. They will add that Feature next year. Batterie life is important but this watch aint that big of an upgrade

[@qamalazlan3128]

Can’t wait for my fold 6, buds3 pro and GWU!

[@spdrmonkey01]

It works with the older charging puck (6 classic at least)

[@cwmodeler8887]

I'm glad they came out with the orange. I'm a huge orange fan, especially Michelangelo from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I ordered the orange one

[@TheJabberTech]

Hahahahahhaha Kawabunga dude

[@jonnybaily1206]

Thanks for trying the other band for once.

[@Capie]

Look, no smartwatch is going to be 100% perfect and 100% accurate. What you buy is a trade-off between what you need/want to use it for, what you want, and what you can afford. There is a huge difference in functionalities and intended use between smartwatches and Garmin watches, as well as the markets they target. If you are not a professional athlete and are looking for a smartwatch and are already in the Samsung ecosystem (you already have the phone, the tablet, the earbuds, etc.), then the choice is easy.

[@malcomerogers4504]

Looking forward to your full review as I am receiving my 7 ultra tomorrow.

[@thomasbuddin3066]

They didn't send me my band in the packaging like that. And my outer box art is different from yours. Kinda odd.

[@TheJabberTech]

Strange for surr

[@RahelRahman6906]

Im thinking if I should trade in my watch 6 and get ultra

[@TheJabberTech]

Trade-in is crazy high right now.

[@Randorita]

You can go back in time and get a Samsung Gear watch and it is rectangular. This is pre Apple Watch, so who is copying? I am using a Samsung Duo charger from 3 years ago, and my Ultra is charging fine. It may be slower, but I can live with that over having to use that puck! I do miss the rotating bezel. It was almost a deal killer.

[@TheJabberTech]

Good news about the duo, gonna try mine today (got it with the 6 classic). Do you get a message saying charger incompatible? Notice extra heat? Also this is a later Gear Sport, if you remember that device

[@Randorita]

@@TheJabberTech No messages and it works just like it did with my 6 Classic. My first was the Frontier, but the Sport is the same shape as the 7 Ultra.

[@verderymcdaniel2322]

I just got mine and found out that you can plug in your watch charger to your phone and it will charge your watch

[@romeolives7062]

I use my old watch charger for my six classic and it worked fine

[@TheJabberTech]

Me too

[@ismabed2499]

Is it compatible and it can be paired with IPhone 15?

[@dimi-88]

No is not.Only with Samsung phones work.I change my iphone 15 pro with the ultra s24 and together I buy the watch ultra☺️

[@Angelblaze]

How are people getting theirs so early? Mine delivery says 21 August =( Also wish the band was like the 4 classic(which is what I'm trading in), don't like the band outside.

[@paulkline3011]

Cancel your order and get the 6 classic. I had the Ultra for 3 days and it's not that great. The back of the watch gave me a bad rash on my wrist. It's actually cheaply made. Only about 10 % Titanium. I got the same heart rate measurements and GPS distance as my 6 classic. If you liked the rotating bezel on your 4 you will not like digital bezel. It really sucks bad. I already returned this Ultra and it's a relief to have my 6 classic back on my wrist.

[@Angelblaze]

@@paulkline3011 thank you for the heads up, but I'll try it out. I actually like the look of the ultra better, and when I go to the gym I go into the sauna(dry) and the build quality is better for that sort of stuff. The only thing I don't like is the circle, they should of just made the screen fit the sides imo. Besides trade in value for my 4 classic was 300, so no Brainer to get a new one.

[@sidney1234usc]

You can use the same charger I'm still using the same charger that I used on my Galaxy watch 5

[@TheJabberTech]

Nice. Some have said it's slower and produces more heat

[@courtneyjohnson869]

I got the white but after wearing for a day I decided to return it for a gray

[@adyton]

Can you take it to a long walk in NY for a battery life and GPS accuracy test please. What I mean is a five - six hours of walk if possible.

[@adyton]

@@Tha-King-Arthur That's the reason of this test :) I read somewhere that Samsung promises 16 hours of battery life in fitness activities with GPS and it has it's own triathlon support also; so, may be, without AOD on during this test, the watch may surprise us, but we may never know without trying.

[@TheJabberTech]

I'm not Forest Gump...walk for 6 hours LMAO I'm going for a 2 hour walk this weekend. That'll be more than enough for data collection..as well as biking, workouts etc

[@nh.zenith31]

Such a WASTED opportunity to use a bigger display on the whole squircle body, it will make navigation much easier as there is no ring. They just used the same 1.5 inch leftover displays for watch 6 classic to the ultra. PreOrdered it anyway, most probably will return and get the watch 7 instead.

[@myfakeguuglaccount8307]

​@TheJabberTech Yup. It kept trying but eventually gave up. You're right though: the Watch 6 puck works perfectly.

[@TheJabberTech]

I'm not buying a new duo charger. This was done on purpose

[@seangreenop]

​@@TheJabberTechthis is due to the extra sensors on the back of the watch causing a larger bulge. This is the same reason why reverse charging on the phone doesn't work. One of the youtubers reached out to Samsung to find this out.

[@naturreal1705]

Those who come from Apple to review Samsung will always be bypass tot think that everyone is copying Apple because that's their origin. Real Samsung & android users know that Apple waits for android features & products to old before they slowly introduce it to their ecosystem. Samsung Gear was out years ago, but here we are today with reviews like this 1 continuously saying like Apple when Samsung recreated their own product, but Apple per usual stole the design of.

[@colmastro4373]

$300usd/cad? Wtf?! cheapest WITH a trade in of my s22 ultra and 5 pro here in Australia is $1100aud, around $800usd.

[@Runningonmymindblog]

It's $1000 with bonus strap on the Samsung Australia site not including trade ins

[@factory2170]

There's ways around it if you know anyone in the US or Canada.

I paid 1,500 Euros for my special addition Tesla watch. The battery exploded while being charged. Get this watch instead. Tesla makes burning garbage.

[@danield6815]

It is not silicon

[@sparx2391]

Samsung had that design long befor apple ,they had an orange band long befor apple ,they had programmable buttons on their phones years before apple . Personally I don't like the look of the apple watch, looks like it was designing for children.

[@taylornicty1170]

I hope that on the next Galaxy Watch Ultra they make the screen square

[@TheJabberTech]

Me too!

[@axetrops]

They had the rectangular curve one back in 2015? Didn't do so well.

[@SirCharlesLitton]

No no no... no square face.... a round face is premium !

[@TheJabberTech]

It was ahead of its time

[@zckom88]

I'm sorry to say, it was quite a struggle watching you unbox this watch. You opened the box messily, seemed unsure about attaching the band (assuming the mechanism is like the Apple Watch Ultra), and provided incorrect information initially (stating the old charger doesn't work, though you tested it later in the video). Another mistake is that the 100-hour battery life claim is for power-saving mode. According to the official website, battery life will be less than 60 hours if AOD is turned on.
