Samsung is gearing up to unveil a new update for the Galaxy Watch Ultra, but insiders suggest that the changes will be minimal. With this in mind, Samsung’s current Prime Day deal on the existing Galaxy Watch Ultra presents an enticing opportunity, as the smartwatch is available at a remarkable 50% discount, with no trade-in requirements.
The Galaxy Watch Ultra was launched last year as Samsung’s premier, fitness-oriented smartwatch, designed to compete with the likes of the Apple Watch Ultra. Its unique design, coupled with an additional button, introduced significant enhancements to the overall user experience of Samsung's smartwatch lineup. These innovations appear to be setting the stage for further developments in the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 series.
A new model, dubbed the Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025), is set to debut this week. However, it is not expected to feature any groundbreaking changes. Speculations suggest that it may include increased storage and some minor hardware adjustments, such as a new color option. Overall, it seems that the new model will closely resemble the existing smartwatch, making the current Prime Day deal even more attractive.
Currently, both the Titanium Silver and Titanium Gray variants of the Galaxy Watch Ultra are being offered at a 50% discount on Amazon, reducing the price from its standard $649 to an impressive $325. While there have been similar discounts in the past, they often required a trade-in to qualify for the full reduction. This no-strings-attached offer makes it one of the most compelling deals of the season. Walmart is also matching this discount, making it easy for customers to take advantage of this opportunity.
In addition to the Galaxy Watch Ultra deal, Samsung has rolled out several enticing offers on Amazon this week. Shoppers can enjoy up to 45% off select configurations of the Galaxy Z Fold 6, $300 off the newly released Galaxy S25 Edge, $200 off the Galaxy S25, $300 off the Galaxy Z Flip 6, and $350 off the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Samsung is currently accepting reservations for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7, as well as the Galaxy Watch 8 series. Customers who pre-order can receive a $50 credit, which can be applied towards the Galaxy Watch 8, along with the opportunity to earn 3x reward points and other perks. These reservations are completely free, and there is no obligation to purchase a device, making it an excellent opportunity for tech enthusiasts.
In related news, Samsung is now rolling out the One UI 8 Watch beta for the Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra models ahead of the anticipated launch of the Galaxy Watch 8. As Samsung continues to strengthen its position in the global smartwatch market, the upcoming Gemini for Wear OS is also expected to make its debut with the Galaxy Watch 8 series.
