The original Galaxy Watch Ultra was a smartwatch that I wanted to enjoy. Two years ago, I was going between iOS and Android, mostly using the Apple Watch Ultra as my daily watch. Needless to say, I wore the original Galaxy Watch Ultra for maybe 2 weeks and then ditched it. What I LikeHardware/Wearing: This for me is the biggest improvement from the original to the new Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. The original Galaxy Watch Ultra came out of the box with a relatively terrible rubber strap.
