Samsung’s next premium smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, may finally be nearing its launch.

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 May Launch Next Summer

According to a report from GalaxyClub (Dutch), Samsung is actively developing the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. The wearable is reportedly scheduled to launch during the summer next year, alongside the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Watch 9.

If the timeline holds, Samsung could unveil the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 in July 2026, potentially sharing the stage with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8.

Internally, the smartwatch is said to be referred to as the Galaxy Watch 9 Ultra. However, the final retail name is expected to be Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. The report also claims that the new Ultra model may come with a larger battery and likely share several hardware components with the standard Galaxy Watch 9.

Samsung followed a similar pattern with the first-generation Galaxy Watch Ultra. It was internally labelled as the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra before launching alongside the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
