- The latest details of the Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra have allegedly leaked, revealing the entire spec sheet for both devices.
- The Watch Ultra (47mm) is said to offer a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a 590mAh battery and 32GB of storage for around $750.
- The base Watch 7 remains similar to the Ultra, but offers 40mm and 44mm variants with 1.3-inch and 1.5-inch displays for ~$342 to ~$428.
We’re just over a week away from Samsung’s summer Unpacked event, and the full spec sheet for its new watches has leaked.
The full spec sheet for the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Watch 7 was detailed by Dealabs, along with some possible colors. The larger Ultra model will apparently debut with a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with 480×480 resolution. Rumor has it that the device will arrive in a 47mm size option with dimensions of 47.4 x 47.1 x 12.1mm.
Inside, the sheet adds that the Ultra variant could feature the Exynos W1000 chip with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. Samsung’s version of Wear OS, One UI Watch 6, is said to greet users out of the box.
Also highlighted was a 590 mAh battery with fast charging capabilities. Users can expect NFC, Bluetooth 5.3, 4G, 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi connectivity options. For its sensors, the alleged specification sheet claims a GPS, light and geomagnetic sensors, gyroscope, barometer, BioActive, temperature and heart rate sensors.
The IP6X dust resistance rating and 10 ATM waterproofing round out the supposed specs for the Watch Ultra.
The publication adds that the colors of the device (at least in France) include Titanium Gray, Titanium White and Titanium Silver for its 47mm size. The device is also said to be priced at €699 in France, roughly $750. It’s worth noting that pricing is always tricky, and Samsung will likely adjust it accordingly for each region.
The Galaxy Watch 7 is said to have the same array of sensors as its Ultra sibling. However, the sheet says that consumers can see two size variants: 40mm and 44mm. The former could sport a 1.3-inch Super AMOLED display, while the latter could sport a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED as the larger model. The same Exynos SoC is supposedly featured in the watch as well.
The Watch 7’s RAM and storage options are the same, while the differences arise for its battery. The smaller 40mm could see a 300mAh capacity, while the 44mm has a 425mAh battery. These sizes are similar to last year’s Watch 6 and 6 Classic.
The post adds that the Watch 7 may feature the same IP6X dust resistance, but its waterproofing is rated at 5 ATM.
The 40mm variant of the base model with Bluetooth is said to offer green and cream options for €319 (~$342). Its 44mm option in green and silver colors can reach €349 (~$374). The sheet suggests that its 40mm Bluetooth/4G version could be priced at €369 (~$395), while the 44mm could be offered for €399 (~$428).
The Watch 7 appeared on Amazon’s retail listing with a sneak peek at some features. The BioActive sensor remains consistent between the two leaks, though the Amazon listing mentions a “Daily AI Companion,” which likely refers to Samsung’s Galaxy AI. Along with similar colors, the listing stated that consumers could expect their Watch 7 by July 16, just six days after Unpacked.
Elsewhere, the Galaxy Watch Ultra was recently spotted in some official renders with the Buds 3 series. From the now-removed images, the Watch Ultra was seen with a rugged strap, a square body and a circular watch face with multiple physical buttons.
Samsung confirmed that its summer Unpacked event will take place on July 10 in Paris, France, and consumers can start pre-ordering their devices.
