◆Galaxy Watch Ultra (LTE)



The Galaxy Watch Ultra is a new high-performance model in Samsung's smartwatch series, the Galaxy Watch. Samsung explains that the Galaxy Watch Ultra is based on the advanced health monitoring features and powerful hardware of the Galaxy Watch 7, and will further evolve your fitness experience with ultimate performance to take your results to the next level.

The body comes in three colors: titanium silver, titanium gray, and titanium white.



While following the circular design of the Galaxy Watch series, the new cushion design enhances protection and appearance, and the 'Dynamic Lug System' enhances comfort, so you can always be your best self. The battery life is the longest in the series, up to 100 hours in power saving mode and 48 hours in power saving mode during exercise.



The case is made of grade 4 titanium for durability. It is ATM waterproof (waterproof for 10 minutes at a depth of 100 meters) and can be used at a wide range of altitudes, from 500 meters below sea level to 9000 meters above sea level. This makes it possible to track a variety of fitness experiences, such as swimming in the ocean or cycling in harsh environments.

With the 'Multi-Sport Tile,' you can track multi-course workouts for triathlons, such as swimming, cycling, and running. In addition, by connecting a power meter for cycling, the AI can measure '

Functional Threshold Power ' in just four minutes.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra also offers a 'personalized heart rate zone' feature, allowing you to work out at the optimal intensity based on your cardiovascular fitness.

The newly added quick button allows you to start and stop your workout, and other functions can be arranged according to your needs. There is also a 'siren' function that can emit a sound of up to 86dB and reach a distance of up to 180 meters, and a 'night mode' that improves readability in dark places. The brightness of the display is up to 3000 nits, so the display is clear even under bright sunlight.

In addition, the Galaxy Watch Ultra will be available for pre-order in Japan from July 17, 2024, and is scheduled to be released in late July. The selling price is 126,940 yen including tax.

◆Galaxy Watch7



The Galaxy Watch7 is a smartwatch that can accurately record 100 different workouts. The enhanced bioactive sensor helps you understand your health status through more accurate and comprehensive measurements. For the first time, the watch is equipped with the 'AGEs Index' function, which allows you to conveniently track advanced glycation end products (AGEs) from your wrist. AGEs reflect the overall biological aging process and are an indicator of metabolic status, and are also available on the Galaxy Watch Ultra.

The body is available in two sizes, 44mm and 40mm. The 44mm comes in two colors, green and silver, while the 40mm comes in two colors, green and cream.



The Galaxy Watch7 uses the most powerful 3nm process processor in the series, with a 3x faster CPU speed and 30% improved power efficiency for the application processor, providing a more seamless wearable experience. In addition, it is the first Samsung smartwatch to use a dual-frequency GPS system, allowing for more accurate location tracking even in dense urban environments.

In addition, the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch7 also support FeliCa.

In addition, reservations for the Galaxy Watch 7 will begin in Japan on July 17, 2024, and the release date is scheduled for July 31.

It covers basic activity-related functions of a smartwatch, such as a sleep support function that can monitor sleep patterns and provide sleep coaching, a function that allows you to record and check the achievement status of more than 100 types of workouts, and a function that supports motivation to achieve health goals.

Galaxy Watch FE will be available for pre-order from July 17, 2024, and is scheduled to be released in late July. The selling price is 34,760 yen including tax.
