The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is the best Wear OS watch to date, even if it’s not the one for me
The Apple Watch Ultra: Android Edition.

If you’ve read any of my initial impressions, you’ll know I haven’t been shy about my feelings regarding the look of Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch Ultra, which officially hit wrists in mid-July 2024. However, while I still can’t hide the fact I think Samsung missed the mark aesthetically, after testing it for over two weeks, I can say it’s managed to deliver on its Ultra moniker in a lot of other ways. Though clearly Apple Watch Ultra-inspired, Samsung’s premium Wear OS smartwatch elevates a powerful software experience with extended battery life, great GPS tracking, and a handful of features for outdoor enthusiasts. Knowing that a Pixel Watch 3 launch is right around the corner, I’m willing to dub it the best Wear OS smartwatch available… at least for now.
