Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra & Watch 7 - 50+ Tips, Tricks & Hidden Features!

[@spambunny123]

Bro im leaving every setting on IDC if i have to charge it every day its not ultra unless its doing everything

[@AndreasFesas]

Which one consumes more watch battery? Wifi connection or Bluetooth? Should i have my watch connected through BL or WF?

[@kingkobra1956]

I received my Ultra 7 yesterday and it looks even better in person than on the reviews. I chose the titanium color with the black band and it is truly a really nice looking watch. I have a small wrist and for its size it still fits perfectly. Setting it up was a breeze, but it was just for the basic functions. Your videos are always extremely informative and enjoyable. I save your videos for future reference. As always well done.

[@fahimfaiyaz3608]

cant buy but still watching!

[@vindam12]

One thing you forgot to mention is that in modes and routines on your phone you can actually have your phone change your watch faces for you

[@HarryMyhre]

I learned a lot of feafures about my new watch from your vid. Thanks!

[@marcosveltmanus2997]

thanks for the info. However for double pinch, shake or knockknock the options dont appear in the screen. Do you know whats wrong?

[@cloud-bytes]

Mine arrives tomorrow. Video was really helpful thanks

[@frankflores7568]

Thank you, This is very informative since I got my new samsung Galaxy Ultra watch yesterday. I really dig the watch so far. Very cool features after checking out this very informative and interesting video. Thank you very much you rock 🤘

[@naturreal1705]

I was just about to get the watch, but I saw they aren't allowing the app Facer. For those who don't know... Facer is a big game changer with the watches, allowing you to change the faces to great themes. I paid for the year & I like changing my faces to match my attire. I might not get it.. not like the watch5 pro is much of a difference. Great video. Loved the breakdown.

[@redneckenigma3086]

I also have facer. I will wait a bit. I have the watch 5 pro, and spending 700 bucks on this watch is a lot of money for me personally.

[@willyb507]

I wish I had known that before I shipped my trade in... Facer is the best

[@Konficious]

The update is coming, the faces saved on my watch 6 classic transferred over to the watch ultra so I am good for now.

[@inbal014]

Thank you Sir ! it's really very useful

[@jbenthere627]

Hello. Great video! I just got the Watch 7. All of the faces that I've used from the watch, display all temps in Celsius. I want them in Fahrenheit. My weather apps are set to Fahrenheit. How can I get the temps to display Fahrenheit? This was never a problem when using Facer because I set everything to imperial. Sadly, Facer is not compatible with the Watch 7, at least for now.

[@deesbeffie]

Super good explanation and very useful.

[@BillTheDroneReviewer]

Does anyone know of a watch face for the Ultra that will display Altitude & Barometric pressure ? Thank you !

[@yohannirani9431]

Very helpful and explained easily...thanks

Sakitech, how do you get email notifications on the Galaxy Watch Ultra? I'm not sure if you've covered that or not.

Excellent information! Thank you

Great job! My Ultra was delivered today. Looking forward to setting it up based on your tutorial. Thanks again!!!!!

[@dhirajshetty483]

Brilliant Review !

[@LadyHeathersBox]

Might have been asked already but what's the watch face you see at the very start of this video?

[@dahlyah]

Great Job!!!

[@heqaib]

Thanks for the video. It's much easier than reading the manual. Although it's not relevant to your tutorial, I still can't believe that Samsung shipped it with that crazy giant watch band. I bought a regular Titanium link watch band. Now it looks like a regular watch :-).

I just bought the watch its truly amazing

[@KAMIKAZAN95]

Hey sakitech I have a question for you and the other KZbinrs who follow you. How come none of you have yet tested the Samsung galaxy watch 7 ultra under water to see how the touch screen works, I think it would be an excellent indicator of the watch itself if it works and if it justifies the price of 700 euros in Europe because I'm not sure what the price is at your place in the USA.

[@ericc8895]

I have been rocking the active 2 for almost 5 years, and it finally died Saturday. So, I decided to pull the trigger yesterday on the Ultra. Hopefully, I love it. It will be here on Wednesday

[@rick00770]

Thank Saki, thanks for pointing out the exclusive features to the ultra. Some folks were saying it’s just like the regular Samsung watch.😊

[@alejandrovelez2147]

Great video, thank you !

[@31577bowie]

The sleep Apnea function hasn't worked once since I got it. Any ideas other than what's suggested?

[@jlmatthews9]

You turn off all that stuff to save battery; you might as well go buy yourself a $20 Timex.

[@johnjohn6808]

Exactly! It defeats the purpose of this watch

Great job as usual Mr Sakitech! 👍🏾 Can you also do a video on how to use the cell phone feature of the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra! Thanksl😊

[@DoctorAtomTNT]

Great video thanks Saki !

[@Datrebor]

I watched another video that stated the watch 7 and the ultra are the same watch. Except of screen size, case size, and buttons. The main specs are exactly the same, so why pay that much more for the same watch? I bought the Watch 7. Which ones are for the Watch 7 and which ones are for just the Ultra? Great video with a ton of information on the watches, thank you.

[@mintali1833]

Nice tips. I think it'd be nice if samsung adds double pinch to wake when on power saving mode as its not always convenient to tap screen to wake.

Make a back up in your watch 6. Than open the 7 for installation. In the following steps they ask if you want to set up as a new watch or from the backup using Smart Switch.if you do that the back up in your watch 6 is on youre watch 7

[@harrellellison9243]

Thanks 👍

[@KetsoG]

On Home Button I have on Press and hold only Power off menu option, does anyone know why? or how can I enable other features?

[@paulkline3011]

So I did that Developer Options. It has an option "Force Full GNSS " Does anyone know what this is? Does it enhance GPS?

[@bigjust9607]

Enabling this setting prevents Android from turning the GNSS hardware on and off to save battery life, which can cause non-continuous signal tracking. This can help avoid gaps in the raw measurement data. It will make your battery drain faster. A whole lot faster

[@giorgisk100]

What settings do you use to get 4 days of battery without powersaving mode turned on?

[@craighillcoach]

For years I have loved your Tututoros! This one is extremely helpful as usually.

Wow, the KZbin video was awesome, thank you for the tips but can you also listen to KZbin music on this Ultra Watch?

[@scooterinthewoods2662]

It does have the youtube music app. I've not tried it personally.

[@DaraKhoyi]

One thing I'm curious about (sorry, it's off topic), I have the black with orange band Ultra and I want to color/stain the Orange spots around the dial to a black color so I can change bands and watch faces and not be stuck with Orange as a theme. Does anyone have a recommendation on what to use to change the color of those little markings? By the way, I love your posts.

[@bobbykern112]

Could always add a watch cover protector. Will add some bulk depending on which one you get, but it protects it. And they have different colors. Then if you want to go back to the original look, just take it off

[@ibby81ae]

How are you getting four days? Can you please do a video on your settings for the watch?

[@paulkline3011]

Then he put it on power saving and he had 6 days. I don't get it? But right at the end of this it was at 91% battery. 2 days 17 hours. So something isn't adding up?

[@ibby81ae]

@paulkline3011 There are so many mixed signals about this watch.

[@atjlucko123]

At the ”home button” I haven’t option ”asistent”, why I don’t realy now! Where I can find ”option asistent”, can you help me?! Maybe the problem is, something isn’t aveliable in every countries, so maybe that fact is here on?! What you can sayed about this, problem, please for quickly ansver!

[@Porkchop-76]

Why does no reviewer ever mention whether they have LTE enabled while using the watch. To many inconsistencies in regards to battery life.

[@ibby81ae]

I'm starting to think all these reviewers get free watches for a reason and agreed not to give their honest opinions.

[@eausway]

when phone is out of bluetooth range will the watch give alert?

[@Cloudcrof7]

I'm waiting for white version! Still no news even Samsung Physical stores they Don't know anything about it! Hope mine arrive this week!

[@Cloudcrof7]

you aren´t alone same here from Portugal! white version didnt arrived or any news about it, I pre order Day One !!

[@FLEX.609]

It sucks that the only way to have night mode on your watch is that you have to have it set on analog

[@StarofNite06]

Im hoping theres a digital coming as well😂 i can tell analog just fine but im slower. I added a digital to the analog tho. It made it tolerable to me. I wanna move the spot its in tho..

[@quToniK]

4 days of battery? My dude , you're NOT using your watch AT ALL. It's around 25 to 30 hours MAX with regular use / no power saving !

[@johnl56]

Maybe there's an issue with yours. I had my ultra last 3 days. No battery save and worked out multiple times a day. I turn off always on and raise to wake

[@jamesm568]

I get 5 days, but I don't use none of the gimmicky health features of it as I use it for other smartwatch uses.

[@spdrmonkey01]

I just took mine off the charger, it says 1 day and 5 hours 🤔

[@enginethatcould5257]

I'm getting a little over 2 days with heavy use . No GPS, No AOD , No Power Saving Mode. Dunno what your talking about

[@rajasankar390]

[@jsworld1446]

It doesn't give me the option to do assistant with press and hold home button. Only Bixby and power off

[@saulgpintop]

How do you make the battery last 3 or 4 days, as you show in the video?

[@Unominious]

Basically use it as a complete analog watch.

[@dfrosburg1]

how do you get the battery to last 6 days? the most i get is o.5 days? frustrating

[@StarofNite06]

Ooooo look what comes out as im sitting waiting on UPS😂

[@jamesm568]

Next do an extreme battery optimization and show people how to get 5 days of use out of it for those that find all these health features nothing but pure gimmicks. Optimize it just like people did with the watch5 pro as it also got 5 days of battery used too. Just because it's a sports watch doesn't mean you have to use it like a sports watch.

[@bwoohk]

oh! Looks pretty cool! But it’s very similar to the Apple Watch

[@flexable222]

Which one is better

[@martinstockbridge3449]

Why would you turn the WiFi off? Wouldn't you want it on? Especially at home or am I missing something. Would Bluetooth have all the same functions? Thankyou

[@jamesm568]

The only time I have Wi-Fi on the watch is when it's on the charger so it can update itself.

[@martinstockbridge3449]

@jamesm568 thankyou I was a little confused why have WiFi if you turn it off. This is my first smartwatch. Also didn't know that most networks in UK don't support lte 4g. It been a bit of a learning curve.

[@jackt6112]

- 14:12 There is no Google Assistant option. Update: Google Assistant is installed on the phone. Unlike Biby, you must go through the Google Assistant setup process before it will display as an option. - To see and switch to another running app or clear out apps not being used (like the three vertical bars on the bottom-left of your phone screen) open apps and select the Recent Apps app (navy blue with two superimposed white-filled circles). It can also be added to to double-press of the home button. - Missing is the calibration of the compass. - Many regions do not have Blood Pressure monitoring installed. That can be side-loaded.

[@leonpaccardy586]

does it have a depth gauge?

[@johnjohn6808]

💯No one should be putting this watch on POWER SAVING mode to get better battery life. The entire idea of this watch being bigger is for better battery capacity ... it would defeat the purpose .. also, when doing that mode for a phone or in this case, it's almost like crippling the device by limiting its functions . ‼️

Top Gun Watch face created issues with my action button. I had my action button set to elliptical workout. When I installed this face and set a complication to samsung health, my action button no longer worked. If I set the action button to flashlight, it worked fine. But once I went back to samsung health, it no longer worked. I removed the complication but the action button still did not work. Uninstalled the watch face and that did not work. Had to reset and restore then everything worked fine. But as soon as I added the elliptical complication, I had the same problems with the action button getting stuck and not working if it was set to samsung health. Hopefully this is an easy fix for the developers.

When you started the video on your phone it was 3:33 and the watch said 4 days of battery, At the end of your video 5:30pm it says 2 days 16 hours with 8% less than the initial battery, how is that possible? I have been using the ultra for 3 days and it barely gives me 24 hours with all the sensors activated except the screen always on, Now the question is, why do I want a watch that offers me so much but limits me with its battery not to mention that it lasts much longer than the Apple watch Ultra 2 without being charged to 100%? Disappointed in Samsung smh, I think I'll return this watch, I'll stick with my Apple ultra 2

[@jamesm568]

You should be able to get 5 days out of the watch5 pro. Did you neutered Bixby and go into your permissions and remove permissions for apps that you never used? If you're using your watch for notifications and weather you don't need GPS and you need to be in power saving mode. You also don't need the always-on display either.

[@bigjust9607]

After a month with this watch, i am calling it the galaxy watch 7 plus. It is not an ultra watch. If you use this for everything it was designed for, you will get about a wotk day. Taking calls, training, gps tracking, checking messages on the go, and using samsung pay. As well as listening to music, you are definitely getting maybe 6 to 7 hours. Imagine paying for a bigger battery, and all everyone is sharing is how to turn off things and saving battery?

[@larryag99]

Has anyone had issues with getting the LTE functionality to work on the Watch-7 Ultra ? I can take calls when the watch is near the phone, but when I'm away from phone/WIFI the LTE function will not work. I wasn't sure if I needed a second mobile plan for the watch itself, so I bought a separate plan for the watch, but the steps to link the watch to the new plan do not work. Samsung has no answers. When I go into the Wearables app, then select Watch Settings, then Mobil Plans... the "Set up mobile plan" screen just clocks (stalls) saying "Finding out more about your plan...". Has anyone got the LTE function to work? Can it be done with one plan, or does it take two separate plans? Mobil provider (Mint Mobil) says just scan the QR code and everything will work fine, but there is no functionality to scan a QR code from within the Mobil Plans setup. Samsung says there is no functionality to manually enter the plan details. Any thoughts?

I have classic 6 LTE with Verizon. Had to set up second line for it (also has number share if needed) and I think it's 10 bucks a month. Not sure with mint how it works but I'd bet you need a separate line as well. LTE needs a line to connect to (different phone number.) I'd call them and tell them you have an LTE watch and need a number for it. Good luck, hope my info helps you.

[@larryag99]

​@@therealgavinsplayground ​@therealgavinsplayground thanks for the info. I did buy a second stand alone plan, but can't find a way to link the watch to it. Maybe Samsung changed something in the 7-Ultra. Called Samsung but the agents were unable to figure out how to link the watch to the new plan. I'm surprised more folks aren't complaining about this.
