Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is rumoured to take place in early July. As usual, the South Korean brand is expected to unveil the next-generation foldable phones, smartwatches, hearables, and the much-awaited Galaxy Ring. Now, we have got a first look at the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra in leaked renders shared by reliable tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer (aka onleaks). It is expected to be the top-most model in the Watch 7 series.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra leaked renders
The first thing that anybody would notice is the unique but also confusing design on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra. It’s hard to know if the dial is square or circle. It feels like a circle on the top of a squarish base. Samsung could be differentiating the Watch 7 Ultra from other models in the lineup with this new design that is away from the traditional all-circular design.
The Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra will feature the iconic glossy rotating bezels with grooves instead of numbers. On the right side of the smartwatch, there are two physical buttons that are found on previous Galaxy Watches. However, there is also an additional crown-like button between the two. This could be similar to the Action button on the Apple Watch Ultra. The other side of the Watch 7 Ultra has larger cutouts for speaker grilles.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra has wider straps and the fitting mechanism seems to be different. There are a lot of sensors in circular and square shapes on the back of the wearable device. It is confirmed to retain the temperature sensor. The upcoming Watch 7 series is rumoured to come with blood sugar monitoring.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra will have the same 1.5-inch display as the Watch 6 Classic. The circular screen means that the company won’t have to rework the UI on the upcoming offering which would have been the case if it was a square dial. Dimension-wise, the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra measures 47 x 47.4 x 16.4 mm which is larger than the Watch 6 Classic. It’s no doubt that the smartwatch will be bulkier.
Samsung seems to be taking on the Apple Watch Ultra with the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra. We will learn more in less than two month’s time.
