A brief Galaxy Watch history lesson. Samsung introduced a rectangular smart watch, the Samsung Gear, in 2013, two years before the first rectangular Apple Watch. The new Galaxy Watch Ultra "cushion" design (aka "squircle") is borrowed from the Samsung Gear Sport (2017), not the Apple Ultra.
Samsung reportedly preparing Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 for release—not a Watch 8 Classic!?
Is this a good offer or should I wait for Ultra 2 to release for better offer ?
Any leaks for Galaxy Watch Ultra 2?
Will there be a Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2?
It's still expected that Samsung will eventually launch a Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, but it might not happen in 2025.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 waterproof
We'll have to wait for Samsung to officially confirm details, but the watch will almost certainly be waterproof and dustproof. Ultra smartwatches are designed to be incredibly durable and the original Galaxy Watch Ultra holds IP68, 10ATM and MIL-STD-810H military ratings and certifications so it would be odd if Samsung downgraded any of these for the next model.
Is a new Galaxy Watch coming out in 2025?
Absolutely, Samsung launched a trio of new Galaxy Watch devices in July 2025, including the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic.
