A large 47mm heavy-duty fitness tracker, it\u2019s now fallen to its lowest Australian price ever.<\/p>\n<p>The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is normally Samsung\u2019s most expensive smartwatch, but this <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/target.georiot.com\/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8428&amp;GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.com.au%2Fdp%2FB0D6S1Y7RK%3Ftag%3Dhawk-future-22%26ascsubtag%3Dtrd-us-3894343418916190838-22\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com.au\/dp\/B0D6S1Y7RK\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\" data-hl-processed=\"hawklinks\" data-placeholder-url=\"https:\/\/target.georiot.com\/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8428&amp;GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.com.au%2Fdp%2FB0D6S1Y7RK%3Ftag%3Dhawk-future-22%26ascsubtag%3Dhawk-custom-tracking-22\" data-google-interstitial=\"false\" data-merchant-name=\"Amazon AU\" data-merchant-id=\"24903\" data-merchant-network=\"Amazonau\" data-merchant-url=\"amazon.com.au\">exceptional 59% price drop at Amazon<\/a> brings its price down below that of the company\u2019s standard range of Galaxy wearables.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, the Ultra&#8217;s price makes it recommendable only to those who live and breathe fitness, or need the extra durability for their job. However, this deal price makes it impossible to ignore for anyone looking for accurate, in-depth health and fitness tracking from a stylish, if slightly bulky, smartwatch.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-4f70e0f2-afb1-4102-aa54-2e6fad3a7b12\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"6b1b6aa0-69bd-4fa9-8092-917c48e78d60\">Despite having been released in 2024, the Watch Ultra is still a cut above the current crop of smartwatches from Samsung, outpacing the Watch 8 range on durability, overall size, water resistance and battery capacity. It\u2019s even slightly lighter than the Watch 8 Classic, weighing 60.5g versus the Classic\u2019s 63.5g.<\/p>\n<p>In our <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/health-fitness\/smartwatches\/samsung-galaxy-watch-ultra-review\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/health-fitness\/smartwatches\/samsung-galaxy-watch-ultra-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra review<\/a>, we praised the wearable for its programmable quick button, tough titanium chassis and exceptional feature set, particularly for encouraging fitness goals and tracking specific routines, though we weren\u2019t impressed that the display itself was no larger than a 44mm Galaxy Watch.<\/p>\n<p>When the Watch Ultra first debuted, I found it to be a welcome companion for my day-to-day exercise. I\u2019m not exactly the Ultra\u2019s target market, as I was tracking walks and work travel as opposed to kayaking and intensive jogs, but I still saw benefit in its coaching system, which encourages you to move faster with wrist vibrations and tracks your distance through GPS data.<\/p>\n<p>But I\u2019d recommend only considering the Watch Ultra if you\u2019re already a Samsung phone user \u2013 otherwise its gesture toggle feature (for cancelling alarms and stopping music with a literal pinch) will be lost on you. The same can be said if you\u2019re not really somebody doing a lot of fitness activities \u2013 if you\u2019re just after a casual smartwatch, this probably isn\u2019t the one for you. And fair enough, considering it\u2019s pretty bulky.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re keen on fitness tracking, there are some other handy devices currently discounted on <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/tag\/amazon\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/tag\/amazon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>.
