Been keeping an eye out, now at an ATL! Titanium Silver and Titanium Grey available at this price.
CamelCamelCamel.
Yeah this is not the model just launched in case you didn't know. This is last year's model, which may still be a good deal considering the minimal changes, but if your point was that it launched a week or two back and is already down massively as you may have thought, not quite.
Good … different
Last year's model ?
Amazon clearing out the 2024 model.
Comparison
Amazon page on Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025
At the next Samsung sale, play the 'stack the codes' game, goal of $570 or lower for the current year device.
The only difference is 32GB vs 64GB storage, otherwise same chip, RAM, display etc. No brainer to go 2024 for half the price. I didn't get the targeted code so the launch deal wasn't an option.
There is a slight difference in the sensors, and antioxidant measurement, too, but not worth the extra money.
I think the sensors are identical, but the 2024 hadn't had the UI 8.0 Update yet, so those features weren't available.
I believe the watch is identical, sans the storage.
I'd say this is a bargain if you didn't manage to get the 2025 on launch with all the codes bringing it down to a very similar price.
Samsung will be suing apple for copyright infringment
Like Apple copied features that were on Android years before like copy/paste, picture in picture video, multitasking, swipe texting, widgets, lock screen controls, ability to lock apps, RCS messaging, scheduled texts/emails and this year finally adding smart calling screening like hold for me?
You mean that kind of copying? Everyone copies off everyone in tech buddy
Like changing the phone frame to titanium and making that the main gimmick for the iPhone 15 only to be switching back just 2 years later to aluminium according to most sources? Hmmmm sounds like throwing s#&t and hoping it sticks hey? LOL. Same with Apple 'Intelligence.' Lets advertise it as the main selling point for the iPhone 16, not deliver it then hope it 'sticks.'
If you're going to play that game of 'copying' and 'throwing s#&t and hoping it sticks' with a brand, play it with them all because they ALL do it
@Stealtho quit while you're not too bar behind.
We can see you're an Apple fanboi who thinks the company can do no wrong. Drink the kool-aid.
how about shutupayourface then lol
Stealtho just throw sh't and hope it sticks
Can this watch do everything the newer model can?
Cannot believe chatGPT is asking the questions
I got superceded by a newer model
Yeah, I see you evolved into ChatGPT-5
Ask Gemini - its app is integrated into the watch
This is generation 1 of Samsung watch ultra. I'm sure there might be some issues to it. What are those you reckon?
Price matched at JB. Thanks for the heads-up
Me too - I went for the Titanium Silver. How about you?
Grey with the orange strap. Was the only one in store here, so i pulled the trigger before my spending guilt caught up with me!
It's a beautiful colour!
Thanks, Ill return my unopened titanium grey 2025, and grab this.
Out of interest, why? Guessing to save a bit, but how much did you pay for teh 2025 if you don't mind me asking?
There's no titanium grey 2025, the 2025 version is titanium blue, are you sure you're not returning the same watch to buy the same watch?
does the ultra come in 44m?
Wouldn't be called ultra if it did
ultra mini
Curse my girly wrists.
My 42mm Galaxy watch just died.
I'm on Apple eco system. What would I miss out on if I get this watch as opposed to Apple watch?
Resale/trade in value
i dont think this works with iphones…..
seems this is the worst watch to hold value!!!
This is last year's model bud, not the one that launched for $1299 a few weeks ago
i know, but are you going to pay extra 700 or 800$ for only 32gb extra? nothing else has changed. even colours stayed he same, only added the blue one.
Nope I wouldn't. If I had the option of this at $529 or the 2025 model at $1299, I'm going this at $529 for sure given the minimal changes.
Though I got this year's on that killer Samsung preorder deal from a few weeks ago at $524 so I can't complain! Haha
Good for school kids whom you don't want to give a mobile phone? My only concern would be a lack of Google Maps etc to check public transport timing. Or can a smart watch run it?
I bought watch 7 with the intention that esim will support it and I can give it to my kid but that didn't materialize
What issue did you run into? If not eSIM, a physical sim would work?
Thanks! No public transport option in the screenshot, or I wonder if is it just a dummy example and not a real one!
Thanks OP i am on JB hifi live chat now trying to get them to price match.
they really (profanity) up with the face imo. the uneven shape appearance around the bevel looks so unpleasing to me. is the new one a different design?
Where's the sale for the watch 7 ☹️
Bought this for a bit more… like this warch more than i thought i would. A lot of accessories from third party lets you customize it as befits your mood.
Also good tracking of details and biometrics. Been useful in helping lose a couple kilos so far… theres a nice feedback loop between my cheap ass treadmill and working out that wasnt present before!
Man 47mm watch is way too big. If I only could pull it off, I would consider this!
Bro, i have 57mm wrist watches
Lol down down down like coles slogan
