The full sheets include the less glamorous but equally useful details, such as case sizes, display specifications, memory, storage, connectivity options, battery capacities, dimensions, and available colors. They also show that Samsung will once again offer the regular Galaxy Watch in Bluetooth and LTE versions, while the Ultra 2 will come with LTE connectivity as standard.
The new leak also highlights a few more specialized workout options, including a trail-running mode, a Nutrition Alert feature that uses perspiration, and an exclusive app for divers that’s expected to arrive later in the year. Samsung fans will be happy to hear that battery capacities have been bolstered across the board.
According to the report, the 40mm Galaxy Watch 9 will cost €409 ($466) with Bluetooth or €459 ($523) with LTE. The larger 44mm version is reportedly priced at €439 ($500) and €489 ($557), respectively. The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is expected to cost €749 ($854).
Those prices would represent an increase over Samsung’s current watches in Europe, although regional pricing often doesn’t translate neatly into what buyers will pay in the US. We’ll get the official figures, along with confirmation of the leaked Galaxy Watch specs, when Samsung holds its Unpacked event tomorrow.
