Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 leak reveals 5,000 nits display, IP69K rating, and more

Samsung cannot seem to stop leaks of its upcoming devices. A new leak has revealed nearly all the key improvements the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 will bring. The wearable will be officially announced on July 22, but its design and most of its specifications have now leaked.

Leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) has revealed Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 marketing material in his Substack newsletter. The smartwatch has a squircle-shaped titanium case and comes bundled with a silicone watch band. More importantly, it appears to be 12% thinner than its predecessor. The first-generation Galaxy Watch Ultra was relatively thick, so the thinner design should make the upcoming smartwatch more comfortable to wear.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 has three buttons on the right side, including the programmable Quick Button in the middle. The device now has an IP69K rating, compared with the Galaxy Watch Ultra's IP68 rating.

It has a 5,000-nit circular OLED display, which is a substantial improvement over the Galaxy Watch Ultra's 3,000-nit screen. The wearable is also equipped with Qualcomm's current flagship wearable chip, the Snapdragon Wear Elite.

Leaked marketing images further confirm that the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is powered by an 800mAh battery, which has 35% more capacity than the Galaxy Watch Ultra's battery.
