Samsung's New Watch Shatters Brightness Records
30 Jun
Summary
- Upcoming Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 may reach 5,000 nits brightness.
- This surpasses current smartwatches and many TVs.
- An official announcement is expected next month.
The next generation of Samsung's high-end smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, is reportedly poised to feature an unprecedented display brightness. Leaks suggest the device will incorporate an AMOLED screen capable of reaching 5,000 nits. This figure is substantially higher than current offerings on the market.
For comparison, most consumer televisions operate between 1,000 and 1,500 nits. The current Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra and Watch 8 models peak at 3,000 nits. Even Apple's top-tier smartwatches, the Series 11 and Ultra 3, reach 2,000 and 3,000 nits respectively. Garmin's Fenix 8 Pro currently leads with 4,500 nits, a mark the upcoming Samsung watch is expected to eclipse.
This technological leap means the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2's display could achieve half the brightness of some of the brightest flagship televisions available. Samsung is expected to officially unveil the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 at its Unpacked event next month, where more details including a release date will likely be revealed.
