👀 Leaks & Rumors

Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 and Ultra 2 reportedly launch July 22 at €409 and €749, but the real story is the base model finally offering Android users an affordable midrange option—the Ultra 2’s titanium and Bluetooth 6.0 are nice-to-haves, not must-haves at €749.

Marty’s Take:

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 at $468 is where this launch actually matters—not the Ultra. That puts it squarely against the Garmin Forerunner 265 and Garmin Forerunner 965, but with a consumer-friendly UI and Bluetooth 6.0 baked in. Before defaulting to Garmin’s complexity, check our fitness tracker comparison guides: Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 is the most underrated buy in Android wearables right now.
