  • Samsung has launched its first “Ultra” smartwatch with the Galaxy Watch Ultra. This is a very powerful device with a brand new design, top health-tracking features you can't get anywhere else, and the promise of multi-day battery life. However, even with all that good stuff, you should probably still skip it. Let's talk about why!

    I hate to be that guy, but you missed a few differences between the watch 7 and the Galaxy watch ultra.
    - Galaxy watch ultra has FTP detection
    - Galaxy watch ultra has a night mode that turns the screen red in dark conditions
    - Galaxy watch ultra has 3,000 nits of peak brightness
    - Galaxy watch ultra is approved for snorkeling and can withstand pressure at 100 m (as opposed to the Galaxy watch 7. Being approved for showering and swimming in shallow water and only being able to withstand 50 m of pressure)

    • @FeniksGaming
      @FeniksGaming 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      meters of pressure slowly become meaningless to 99% of people. Hardly anyone dives below 50m Snorkeling doesn't tend to go more than 10m on average even recreational scuba divers don't go below 40m depth. to go below 50m you need to really know you need different gas mixtures and decompression stops. it is a level of diving used maybe by 0.1% of population if not less.

    I'm trading in my Apple watch Ultra for this watch, everything you kind of complain about on the Samsung watch the Apple watch is the same thing there really is no difference other than the dive app and capabilities on the Ultra. iOS watch 10 and 11 software is the same across. In my opinion the silver Samsung watch looks way more premium than the Apple watch I really like the design I wish the bezel moved but I'm sure sacrifices had to be made to keep the prices competitive and keep water resistance. iOS 10 watch software in my opinion also got laggy if you have an Apple watch Ultra and given honest opinion you will agree with that. Also i paid 900 tor the watch ultra i can definitely say it wasnt worth that it should have been priced like this one

    For those who are saying that the Galaxy watch ultra is a copy of Apple's Watch Ultra, search the Samsung Gear Sport. It looks exactly like that. If anything, it looks more like a Panerai Radiomir. The orange band and the button are from Garmin, but the button being orang is from Apple, though.

    From Samsung website
    Galaxy Watch Ultra is water resistant for 10 minutes in water with a depth of 100 meters according to the ISO22810 standard. The test was conducted in 5% salty water and 4ppm chlorine water. Galaxy Watch Ultra is water resistant with an IP68 rating based on the lab test conditions for submersion in up to 1.5 meters fresh water for up to 30 minutes. It is not suitable for high-pressure water activities and diving. It may be used for shallow-water activities like swimming in a pool or ocean. Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time. Refer to the user manual for further information, including care/use instructions.

    Great content. Did you know that you can't wireless charge other than using the puck it comes with, because the bottom of the watch is made different, you might be able to wireless charge using other charging stand but it will charge super slow, and will heat up real easy. As for price, if people get there, watch 7 ultra through their carrier it doesn't matter. I'd rather pay 15 bucks a month than pay it out right. As for bands, I just bought 3 bands on amizon that will work with the 7 ultra.

      I watched another video where the guy was pairing it with his Samsung phone, and in the options there was a setting for wearing it either on your Left hand or Right hand. So yes, you can choose.
      I'm just assuming that all functions on the watch itself would then be flipped as well.

    I'd highly suggest for anyone considering this watch to buy a used Galaxy watch 5 Pro instead. It doesn't have the exact same build quality, but it does have the sapphire glass, raised bezel as well as the same battery capacity. It's what I've been daily driving since it came out and is also the reason that I am not going to get the ultra.

  • @Robert-k5r
    @Robert-k5r 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Great video. You got me real excited for my new watch. For anyone interested, I preordered the Ultra and got 200 dollars off the original price plus 115 dollars trade in for my Samsung watch 5 pro. That brings the watch down to 350. For that, I get the premium materials, the large battery, the new shape, the enormous screen and all the features. I also love big watches. 100% positive for me, except.... I hate the watchband, so I hope alternatives will be available soon. The watch is really expensive, but Samsung products go down in price very quickly. Thanks again for the video.

    I buy all of my Samsung products directly from Samsung. I received a $350 trade allowance for my Watch 6 Classic, a $25 discount for pre-ordering, and a $30 government employee discount. I also received an extra watchband that retails for $79.99 free. I paid $283 for the watch after tax with no extra charge for shipping and using my Samsung reward points. $650? Not if you do it right.

    I pre-ordered mine Wednesday, traded my Classic 6 and the additional discount, a cool $249+tax the final cost. Been wearing the OnePlus Watch 2 and it's great, better than the Classic 6 IMO and my likes, but for the S24 Ultra, I need/want the Galaxy Ultra Watch.
    I also like how Samsung went for a Panerai look....but I highly doubt people know what a Panerai is. Also like how the 3 buttons are on the same side and not protected by the bezel. Rotating bezel? No thank you, I want a watch, not a chronograph.

      Me...I am ONLY buying Smart watches and Fitness watches for the work-out-features. Everything else is extra.
      The questions is, "is it really worth" the extra money for all the OTHER features, besides work-outs.
      - NFC for example for mobile payments
      - Spotify and Media controls
      - Taking photos with gestures
      - how snappy is the software? does it lag?
      - how precise are the sensors? dual GPS, maps, heart rate sensor, etc.
      Those are the things that matter. I have 99% of all those features on a $150 smart watch / fitness tracker. The question is, what function exactly would be worth $600 or $700? I have no idea. It's just style and hype of the product. None of the smart watches are worth their price in my opinion.

    To be fair, while “ultra” watches are for sure a rip off for most consumers, I think it’s worth it if you need the overkill features. I have colleagues in Earth science who do fieldwork in remote areas, oceans and diving, the waterproofness, durability and dual band gps are fieldwork game changers and means you carry fewer devices overall. I’m happy there’s an android alternative to the Apple Watch Ultra

  • @TheKingUpNorth
    @TheKingUpNorth 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I have a 5 Pro and although I can get this watch for $250 + tax by trading in my device, I struggle to think of a meaningful difference this will offer for me even for $250. Battery is the same, and the bigger display isn't really a pro since my 5 Pro's body practically already covers my whole wrist. And so many of those exclusive fitness features on the Ultra are so niche I have a hard time believing most Galaxy Watch Ultra users will make use of them. Yet I kinda want it, because visually it looks cool and the bump in performance would be nice. But I can't really justify paying $250 for that, especially since its less neutral aesthetic would make it a bit harder to work with a variety of outfits. And the Watch 7 just seems like a downgrade from my 5 Pro, particularly in terms of build quality and battery life, so that's not worth paying much of anything for. 🤷🏾‍♂️
    (Yet funnily enough, the 7 has the same processor as the Ultra for significantly less, so it is the better value over the Ultra if battery isn't a concern for you, but my 5 Pro runs fast enough, so I'll take the extra battery and value.)
