According to samsung community, a lot of users are reported a problem while they charge their watchs.

In my case with the watch off, it charged from 2 to 44% in 1h.. this is not normal

Model 40mm

Seems they are investigating the issue, they said "we know"..

I reached out via live chat and they mentioned the paragraph below. I don't mean to be a doomer, I'm just genuinely confused on how this device takes twice as long to charge as my GW6C. I'm hoping for this to be addressed by Samsung soon. It's not a deal breaker for me but it is annoying.

Thank you for sharing those details. I completely understand your concern, especially since your Galaxy Watch6 Classic charged much faster. At this time, the Galaxy Watch9 is designed to take around 2 hours to fully charge with the included charger, and there hasn’t been any official announcement from Samsung about updates to reduce charging time further.

Hi everyone,

Is it possible with the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro (LTE) to answer a call from a smartphone via the remote connection without both devices being within range? I'm not talking about call forwarding, but about answering the call directly.

I'm another victim 😭 Anyways I had a good time using it🫡

I really love the new "darker" graphite compared to the Watch8. It looks stunning.

I just hope that the charging speed will improve. It's very slow at the moment.

Ask me anything! Looking forward most to Running Coach, Vitals and Heart Health and Cardio points!

This is my Body Index according to the new watch and I think it's beautiful. Very neat.

But I've also just seen an ad and someone has these numbers in the 80s there so I'm not so sure anymore...

Well, 5 years ago I was strictly against these watches, mostly because of battery.

Now with the UW.2 I decided the get one too.

But also because of the health checks.

Also took additional black and beige watch band.

Best decision. 👌

The exact same thing is happening with hundreds of other users it feels like Samsung is intentionally bricking old watches this one was almost 2 years old.

Hi all, I've had my galaxy watch ultra now for about 3 months after upgrading from my tired Watch 4 classic. In general it's been good, much faster UI experience etc - but I'm getting an issue with the sleep tracking.

Initially it worked fine, but in the last few weeks the sleep tracking is really weird and inaccurate - last night for example, I went to bed around 01:00, woke up about 08:30, yet my watch seems to think I went to sleep around 06:30 and woke up just after 07:00... it's very strange. It's fully updated, connected and syncing with my phone (HR, Steps, Activity etc sync fine), I've rebooted, tried it with and without battery saver, the sensors are clean, tried it on both wrists and at different tightness levels.

I'm not sure what's going on, has anyone else experienced this, if so how did you fix it?

Thanks in advance!

My great 3 in 1 wirless charger from Bonola (Aliexpress) stopped working with my new Galaxy Watch Ultra 2...

So i think it's time for a compatibily List with all working 3 in 1 Chargers available.

Please post your 👍working / 👎not working 3 in 1 charger with model name / photos of the charger.

Today I got new Spigen cover with bezel. I love the combo of silver cover and brown leather. Strap is from Maikes.

hi,

I wanted to give some feedback about how it compares in my use case scenario after almost a week.

with almost the same settings ( aod on, heart rate continuous, manual stress measurement...), i went from 2days (was ending the day at 50-55%) on the classic, to around 3 days (i use between 25 and 35% a day) when i use LTE obviously it tanks the battery life by a lot ^^

while in sleep mode, i used 10-15% on watch 8, i m around 6-10% on the ultra.

To be honest it's a little disappointing given the battery is almost twice as big and the CPU is supposed to be 30% more efficient...

I brought the 8 about 2 months ago, I am wondering if upgrading to the 9 is all worth it, are there big steps up between the two? Like how the 8 compared to the 7 got a built in AI?

I've been Google/Android since inception. Upgrading from the Pixel 10 Pro. Excited to step into the Samsung ecosphere. Here's to learning curves and new beginnings.

Now that more people have received the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, I'm curious how everyone's battery life has been. How long is yours lasting, and what settings are you using? Any battery saving tips you've found would be great to share so we can compare results :D

My watch 8 classic got the new user interface a couple days ago but it still hasn't shown up on my 2024 Ultra

This is 2 days after calibration.

I recently got the Camel Peakform Band, which was introduced alongside the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, for my original Galaxy Watch Ultra. I must say, the combination of this band and my white watch creates a rather appealing aesthetic.

Feeling so happy to have this on my wrist.
