It looks like Samsung has inadvertently spilled the beans on its upcoming premium smartwatch. Eagle-eyed tech enthusiasts spotted the name “Galaxy Watch Ultra” on Samsung’s regional websites before the pages were hastily taken down. This slip-up all but confirms the existence and branding of Samsung’s new top-tier wearable.
The “Ultra” moniker has been floating around the rumor mill for months, competing with other potential names like “Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra” and “Galaxy Watch X.” By dropping the number, Samsung seems to be positioning this as a standalone premium offering, mirroring Apple’s strategy with its Ultra line of watches.

While the accidental listing doesn’t reveal much about the device’s specs, it does align with a growing body of leaks and rumors. Previous reports suggest the Galaxy Watch Ultra will sport a 47mm case size, matching the largest Galaxy Watch 6 Classic model. Unofficial renders hint at an intriguing design that blends square and round elements, potentially setting it apart from both its predecessors and competitors.
Material choice could be another differentiator, with rumors pointing to a titanium casing – a premium touch that would justify a higher price point. Speaking of price, industry whispers place the Galaxy Watch Ultra in the $699-$710 range in the US. This positions it well above Samsung’s standard Galaxy Watch line but still more affordable than Apple’s Ultra offerings.
Samsung’s accidental confirmation adds credibility to the expectation that we’ll see the Galaxy Watch Ultra debut soon, possibly alongside new foldable phones at an upcoming Unpacked event. The smartwatch market is about to get even more competitive, and we’re eager to see how Samsung’s Ultra entry stacks up against the likes of Apple and Google’s high-end wearables.
As always with leaks and rumors, we’ll have to wait for an official announcement to get the full picture. But Samsung’s website slip-up certainly cranks up the anticipation for what could be a game-changing addition to their smartwatch lineup.
