Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra Leaked Design: A Squarish Delight

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 series is making waves with the latest leak revealing the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra’s unique design. Departing from the traditional circular aesthetics, the Ultra variant sports a squarish dial, resembling a ‘squircle’ and reminiscent of the Samsung Gear Sport. Despite its unconventional appearance, the Watch 7 Ultra features a raised platform on the side inspired by the Apple Watch Ultra, but with three buttons instead of two. The circular display measures 1.5 inches in diameter, framed by a raised bezel with hour markings that is expected to rotate, potentially eliminating the need for a rotating crown. Rumors suggest a 578 mAh battery, a new 3nm Exynos W1000 chip for enhanced performance, and a revamped strap design that integrates seamlessly with the body. Additionally, the Watch 7 Ultra is expected to incorporate new health sensors, including a temperature sensor and the potential for noninvasive blood sugar monitoring. With the launch date approaching, more details about the Galaxy Watch 7 series, including the Ultra variant, are anticipated.
