The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is in the works, according to a new report by GalaxyClub.nl. This device will arrive as a successor to the original Galaxy Watch Ultra, which debuted in July 2024. Here’s a look at the preliminary details about the Watch Ultra 2 that have emerged.

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 development aligned with the Galaxy Watch 9

According to the source, Samsung is building the new Ultra model alongside the upcoming Galaxy Watch 9. This pairing suggests that the Ultra 2 will follow the same hardware direction as the Watch 9, similar to how the first Galaxy Watch Ultra was based on the Watch 7 platform.

Internally, the new wearable is said to carry the identifier Watch 9 Ultra, although this internal naming strategy has not reflected retail branding in the past. The expectation is that Samsung will present it publicly as the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, continuing the established naming structure for its high tier smartwatch.

The development timeline is reportedly following Samsung’s usual smartwatch cycle, which has historically placed major launches in the middle of the year. If this pattern holds, both the Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 could be introduced around July 2026. This window would align with the anticipated release period for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8, creating a unified product lineup for Samsung’s summer event.

Samsung did release a Galaxy Watch Ultra this year, but it was only offered in a refined look compared to the original model. This has raised expectations for a more meaningful generational upgrade in 2026, particularly as previous Ultra releases have offered larger batteries and endurance focused features.
Hopefully, upcoming reports will reveal more details about the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.
