Love my ultra, I got the black with orange band. Best thing was the 350 dollar trade-in they gave me for the 5pro. I don't use all the health features and my battery life is two and a half to three days. Mine is paired to my zflip5 and I got the T-Mobile plan that was only 10 dollar connection fee and 7 dollars per month. T-Mobile mobile plan for the watch was much higher but if you go to there store you can work out a deal. Just don't forget and leave the mobile plan turned on as it will zap the battery overnight. White looks great, glad you finally got it.
Yes it's a great watch.. I do enjoy it but no body's really talking much about the build.. It's not solid titanium like the Apple watch.. so that probably reflects in the price.. but I wish the Galaxy watch was all titanium !
I've had my Galaxy watch Ultra a little over a week now and I'm enjoying it. Definitely an upgrade over my y watch 4 classic Thanks for the video. Supposed to good work my friend
I got the same exact one you got- and yes mine took forever to arrive as well. I love it! And I always get questions or compliments when I wear it. I use a series 9 Apple watch as well, and it's been a little overwhelming to change to this because it does so much, and navigating around is just different enough to throw me off. But man it's nice!! In fact seeing this video- I'm going to wear it tomorrow!
I completely agree with you! I've always been a watch guy, and I would really like a Breitling or a Tag Heuer. But they don't do what smartwatches do! And so I've got the Galaxy Watch Ultra, and I love it! The marine band is so comfortable! I thought I wasn't going to like it, but it's awesome! And it's so fast compared to my Galaxy Watch 6 classic!
They really raised their game on tracking and performance. I have the Garmin Marq 2 which looks great, but something about the Samsung Ultra is making me lean toward it beyond the smarter features. I do like the look after time and some areas have surprised me like better sleep tracking, less lagging heart rate...pleasantly surprised.
I got mine and battery life was ridiculously bad, now in September and October, battery life is fantastic, best I've ever seen. Love the way bands snap in, better accuracy, LTE is truly a separate phone, that can fully use if I lose my cellphone (it's nto tied to my body like a watch). My desire for Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is a bigger screen, better deep diver support, rotating bezel either on the side or on the face.
Couldn't agree more. This is hands down my favourite watch. Love how smoothly it works with Peloton app. Really not impressed with Samsung Health which is hit or miss with Health Connect syncing with my health apps. So while the watch provides Peloton with all the health stats. This doesn't end up syncing back into Samsung Health. Which leaves this watch near useless in tracking my fitness journey. Sad as the hardware is amazing!! Wish Samsung would work well with others. They should have their own "Health Connect" to priortise connectivity as good as Fitbit with every other fitness app and hardware.
Yes, that white is just on another level of "check me out" it's gorgeous and that screen is just good to look at, the vibration haptics on this watch is not compared to any other watch I've used either. I have it in white and grey peakform band, which to be honestly looks extremely mature and not sporty but not as comfortable as the marine band i tested from a friend. Like u said I'm not sure samsung will make the ultra next year cos at this point i don't think all this tech companies need to be releasing products every year anymore, we've literally gotten to the peak level on innovations.
Today I used your link and ordered the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra with the orange band, trading in my Samsung Pro5 which I like too. The trade-in credit was $350! I am so excited! Thank you for the excellent review.
The only problem I have with the Galaxy Watch Ultra is the quick response when someone calls you doesn't work if possible can you look into this and you have the best channel love your videos
I was in the same situation. I pre-ordered the next day, and they kept changing the date. I finally got so upset and called the Samsung Experience Store here in Los Angeles, they had them in stock. This was in the first week of August. So I cancelled my pre order and reordered and picked up my White Ultra within 2 days. Didn't regret giving up the free band. Traded in my 4 Classic and got 300 for it. Love this watch!!!
I love my Galaxy watch Ultra in went with the titanium Gray witch made sense to me as it had the all orange theme I've loved it so much the new samy chip has been good and has kept my watch running snappy and fast with ever feature working amazing
I just got mine yesterday and I did pre. Order during the pre-order days. There was a backlog in the pickup place. They didn't have the band but they got it.Finally, I haven't opened it yet yet....
I just got the galaxy ultra watch with a trade in. It’s very nice build and battery life is good. The only thing I do not like is the lack of watch faces for the ultra and other galaxy watches when Samsung switched to google wear os. My everyday daily driver go to watch is the galaxy 3 watch. To me it works very well and there’s so many watch faces to choose from.
Iv had several watches through the years, this is my favorite looks great, I got the black with orange band wish I had gotten the white one . I like watches but got to have a smart watch. I enjoy mine since I got it in August. Awesome review. Subscribed 😊
Great video as always. Got mine a while ago traded in my watch 5 pro which I loved...after the first update my battery has been incredible. Want sure i was going to get this at first until i saw it in person at a Samsung store and it looks much better in person. Love the bands, put my 6 classic on and it feels strange with the slimmer band. Still love that one but thought I'd miss the rotating bezel more. The ultra is the best smart watch I've had. Definitely with the trade in of my 5pro.
I got my on pre order day. Delivered to me on July 19th. So far its a great watch. However im not having good battery life. I have 10% battery life left and its been on for 1d 15 hours. For some reason i loose 12% every night while sleep tracking. Other than that its a great watch. Injust have to charge it every day.
I have the w7 I am loving the chip it's finally running smooth fluent I seriously couldn't be happier with it battery life is really good I'm glad you got your ultra finally.
Overall how would you say it works with the pixel I was thinking about transferring to the pixel but I love this watch so much I don't want to trade it in for the pixel watch
Love your videos dude. I don't care when you get the products, I'm watching when you're ready. You and Mark's Tech are the realest dudes which comes across in the videos. Keep it up!
Enjoy your videos, completely agree about the watch. It's great. I did not get the extra band either, but saving 25% off was worth it. I wish I had ordered the white one, it is so good looking. Keep doing you!
As a fellow owner of the white Ultra Watch that was also long backordered, I can attest to hearing a recording of my own snoring as a TH-cam video played back on my Android tablet on the nightstand. LOL Unfortunately, I did get confirmed as having signs of sleep apnea, so I took steps with my health to address that.
I got the Titanium Silver with a black band, and have had it for a while now. Yes, the band is very comfortable. However, I found a magnetic band on Amazon that is even lighter and more comfortable. It doesn't have a connection bracket on it at all, just the magnetic silicon band contacts to itself. The magnetic material is in the band, which is very stylish, thin and comfortable.
Great review,I’ve just moved to Samsung from apple with 24 ultra great phone but I’m still learning lol,i have the ultra watch but ill go for the ultra 7 ,thanks 🏴❤️👍
At first I was going to order the white but with my job I went with titanium silver yes this watch is amazing it just works perfectly for all my needs I pre-ordered on July 13vwas given date August 14 but it shipped 2 weeks earlier I received it on jusy 31 this ultra watch is just great yes battery life 2.5 days if you turn stuff off you'll get more but I didn't buy it for that big upgrade gw6 classic I don't miss bezel digital one works perfectly
I love how it feels on my wrist. So much better than my 6 classic. It's weighted evenly due to the heavy band. There is a slight lag as you type the pin in that worries me.
I agree they should have came out with a larger screen. And I too pre-ordered mines and ended up canceling it because it took so long. It was pushed back several times. This video had the potential to be great if you had shared more examples about the watch in specific. With actual usage versus just talking through it.
I have the Watch 7 and I just put a Watch 7 to 7 Ultra cover on it that makes it look like the Ultra. No sense in spending 300 extra bucks when I can get the same form factor on the Watch 7.
Thanks for responding. I played with the GW7 but I feel like the design is a bit dated. I like the design of Watch Ultra and Pixel Watch better. Google is offering me a $100 discount for the Pixel Watch.
Galaxy Watch Ultra is the best thee best smart watch out now. Had the apple watch ultra, had the iphone 15 pro. I have the s24 now with the watch ultra. just waiting for one ui 7
I don’t normally comment but I have to say you seem like such a genuine person and man I just love your videos. Keep putting out great content!
Got mine a week ago. By far the best watch I've owned!
Why
@@jdsmith2k7 is fantastic
Probably never owned a better watch that's why
I specifically search out videos a few weeks after release to weed out the bullshit. Thanks for still uploading this and gaining a new subscriber.
Glad it was helpful. Welcome aboard!
I just got my Galaxy ultra this things comfy..very nice! I had the apple watch ultra for a bit..I think this ultra looks way better
My boss asked me what watch I hear yesterday. He says he loves it. I have the grey one. They do look better in person.
@@joalblo9581 they look really impressive in person
That's why I use the watch for my heart, and it works great... I'm 69 years old
Got this watch in My opinion is it's great watch works well with my s24 ultra
I really enjoy your reviews, they feel really honest. Keep it up!

I have white Ultra watch, and i absolutely love it!! Love the redesigned circle on a squircircle style. It's fast and snappy and does so much.
Watched you for some time - always great reviews , honest and in depth - If Samsung don't appreciate your effort , well , we do - good luck 👍
Yes it's a great watch.. I do enjoy it but no body's really talking much about the build..
It's not solid titanium like the Apple watch.. so that probably reflects in the price.. but I wish the Galaxy watch was all titanium !
The white one is a really beautiful watch too beautiful to use on a daily basis, so I order the one with the orange and I love the watch.
The white one looks terrific. Never seen such a thing before.
terrific in a bad or good way
@@SoulwaxFM Terrific not terrible.

It’s a gorgeous looking watch. I’m a big fan. Enjoy wearing it tomorrow!
I got mine a week earlier
I finally took the plunge and purchased the galaxy watch ultra.
I have the ultra gray with the orange band and i love it 😍

Thanks for the videos, dude. Loving mine since day one 🍻
I got the Titanium Silver. The Silver one looks the best to me, especially with the Silver band adapters.

I ordered the white. I also had to wait. I actually waited 5 weeks. It's the most gorgeous watch I have ever owned, and its features are next level.
I got mine 4 days before launch, but I did get the orange one. I love mine.
I love my Galaxy watch Ultra in went with the titanium Gray witch made sense to me as it had the all orange theme I've loved it so much the new samy chip has been good and has kept my watch running snappy and fast with ever feature working amazing

Perfect timing. Just got my Vivo X Fold 3 Pro today, and my watch ultra will be here tomorrow. 😊
Completely agree with you, I have the exact same watch,. I always love your videos, keep up the Great work!
I haven't bought my watch yet because I knew your's was coming soon! :)

Will you do a side by side comparison of the Carbonox Vortex vs this watch????
I won’t be. Sorry. I have never even heard of that watch.
Overall how would you say it works with the pixel I was thinking about transferring to the pixel but I love this watch so much I don't want to trade it in for the pixel watch
Love your videos dude. I don't care when you get the products, I'm watching when you're ready. You and Mark's Tech are the realest dudes which comes across in the videos. Keep it up!
I appreciate the content 🙏🏽
A very honest review. Thank you.
How well does this work with the pixel phones??
It works great with my pixel 9 pro xl. I get almost 3 days out of it. I don't use the sleep features so that probably helps.
perfectly
I've got the white one too.. loving mine
Love your videos. One love from London uk 🇬🇧👍🏻
Enjoy your videos, completely agree about the watch. It's great. I did not get the extra band either, but saving 25% off was worth it. I wish I had ordered the white one, it is so good looking. Keep doing you!

I got mine at launch. It's the dark titanium one. I love it and how stealthy but classy it is.

Thank you for the review. I hope you have been feeling well. Today was headache day for me.
Enjoy your reviews on Tech. just curious do you have a daily driver? Is it an Apple Watch or a Google or Samsung watch
Great review,I’ve just moved to Samsung from apple with 24 ultra great phone but I’m still learning lol,i have the ultra watch but ill go for the ultra 7 ,thanks 🏴❤️👍
Thanks, got a new sub and look forward to more honest videos.
Would it be worth it to upgrade from the galaxy watch 5 pro to the ultra?
I want it, but i love the 6 classic. If the 6 classic doesnt get a price cut by black friday, ill go wit ultra.
At first I was going to order the white but with my job I went with titanium silver yes this watch is amazing it just works perfectly for all my needs I pre-ordered on July 13vwas given date August 14 but it shipped 2 weeks earlier I received it on jusy 31 this ultra watch is just great yes battery life 2.5 days if you turn stuff off you'll get more but I didn't buy it for that big upgrade gw6 classic I don't miss bezel digital one works perfectly
Great video. I like the honesty.
Thank u for the work and vids.
Wish id got the white one instead of the gray. Thanks for the video. Nicely done.
I love how it feels on my wrist. So much better than my 6 classic. It's weighted evenly due to the heavy band. There is a slight lag as you type the pin in that worries me.
Got the grey one with the grey band and I love it :)
White would be dirty within hours in my case :P
I am a bit confused, Which would be better wait for amazfit falcon 2 or buy the galaxy watch ultra?
Great review, thank you.
Just bought one. My S3 Frontier is still ticking but this is a big upgrade.
I have the Ultra as well and I love it.
Nice video keep up the good work
Can you please make a video on the comparison between this and the pixel watch 3? Thank you so much and keep the great videos going!
It took just over 5 weeks to get mine as well. I ordered on first day.
I just wish Samsung would bring back the gear s design. I got looks and questions on that watch up until they quit supporting it after the note 20.
Is there an option to use stainless watch bands?
Will you be putting out a video to compare the Pixel Watch and the Galaxy Watch lineup?
Is it worth upgrading to watch ultra i have watch6 classic still good but haven't had an update yet since 2023
I agree they should have came out with a larger screen. And I too pre-ordered mines and ended up canceling it because it took so long. It was pushed back several times. This video had the potential to be great if you had shared more examples about the watch in specific. With actual usage versus just talking through it.
So what pairs best, fold 6 or s24u with the watch ultra
@TechOdyssey what phone do you have paired with the watch ?
Hey i do messy work how likely is the band to get darker or stained
I love mine since day one
Pair it with the pixel, I want to know if you would loose features using the watch with other phones
If I run or get chased by a dog too funny
I have the Watch 7 and I just put a Watch 7 to 7 Ultra cover on it that makes it look like the Ultra. No sense in spending 300 extra bucks when I can get the same form factor on the Watch 7.
Is it worth getting this watch if you have a non Samsung phone and does it show in google find device app?
This or the Pixel Watch 3? I have a Pixel 8A.
There is quite bit of a difference in price with these two you've mentioned. Have you considered the regular Galaxy watch 7
Thanks for responding. I played with the GW7 but I feel like the design is a bit dated. I like the design of Watch Ultra and Pixel Watch better. Google is offering me a $100 discount for the Pixel Watch.
I waited a month to order mine. I got the grey one. I love it. I traded in my galaxy watch4 classic and received $300!!!
Are you going to review the pixel watch 3?
Is it waterproof? Have you tested for that? I had the galaxy watch 5 and it died while i was at the beach with it set for underwater mode
Galaxy Watch Ultra is the best thee best smart watch out now. Had the apple watch ultra, had the iphone 15 pro. I have the s24 now with the watch ultra. just waiting for one ui 7
