Both watches advance the company\u2019s wearables offerings, but in different ways.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Much like with previous generations, the Watch 9 is designed to be an everyday health companion. It comes in 40mm ($380) and 44mm ($410) options with a round aluminum body. The Watch 9 offers plenty of health and fitness features, such as activity and sleep tracking.<\/p>\n<p>The Watch Ultra 2 ($700), however, is meant to be more of a sports performance watch. It\u2019s built for the outdoors and has extra features designed to assist the aspiring athlete, such as real-time hydration guidance and trail-running assistance.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve compared the two new Galaxy Watches below.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?w=864\" alt=\"Two smartwatches on wrists: the Galaxy Watch 9 on the left and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 on the right.\" class=\"wp-image-4783809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?resize=1536,1025 1536w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon-7.jpg?resize=2048,1366 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Side-by-side look at the two new Galaxy Watches: Galaxy Watch 9 and Ultra 2.<span class=\"zd-image-credit\">Andrew Lanxon\/CNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pricing for Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 vs. Galaxy Watch Ultra 2<\/h2>\n<p>The Galaxy Watch 9 comes in two sizes and prices: The smaller 40mm for $380 and larger 44mm for $410. If you want cellular connectivity, you\u2019ll pay $50 extra: The 40mm LTE version is $430, while the 44mm LTE version is $460.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 comes in a single 47mm size and is priced at $699.<\/p>\n<p>Like other devices coming out this year, Samsung\u2019s smartwatches suffered a price jump from their predecessors. The Galaxy Watch 9 is $30 more, while the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is $50 pricier.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of color, the 40mm Watch 9 ships in cream and graphite and the 44mm ships in silver and graphite.

It has the same aluminum build that ships in both 40mm and 44mm, with a round display set in a slightly square base. The Ultra 2, on the other hand, is available in just 47mm and is built out of a much beefier titanium grade 4. It too has a squircle-esque design \u2014 a round display set inside a rounded square base.<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy Watch 9 is water-resistant up to 50 meters, while the Watch Ultra 2 is water-resistant up to 100 meters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Watch 9\u2019s 40mm option has a 1.3-inch Super AMOLED display with a 438 x 438 resolution, while the 44mm has a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a 480\u00d7480-pixel resolution. The Watch Ultra 2 has a slightly larger 1.52-inch Super AMOLED display with a 498\u00d7498-pixel resolution. The Watch 9 has a peak brightness of 3,000 nits, while the Watch Ultra 2 has a peak brightness of 5,000 nits, which is up 2,000 nits over its predecessor.<\/p>\n<p>As it\u2019s built out of titanium grade 4 instead of aluminum, the Watch Ultra 2 is also thicker and heavier than the Watch 9. The Watch 9 measures only 8.6mm thick, while the Watch Ultra 2 is 10.7mm thick. As for their weight, the 40mm Watch 9 weighs in at 31.5 grams, the 44mm Watch 9 is 34 grams, and the Watch Ultra 2 is much beefier at 61.5 grams.<\/p>\n<p>That said, while the Watch 9\u2019s design remains the same as the Watch 8, the Watch Ultra 2 is 12% thinner and 25% lighter than its predecessor, making it a better choice if you\u2019re looking to upgrade from the first Watch Ultra.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?w=864\" alt=\"Galaxy Watch 9\" class=\"wp-image-4783816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?resize=1536,1025 1536w, https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/samsung-galaxy-watch-8-ultra-unpacked-cnet-lanxon.jpg?resize=2048,1366 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Watch 9 looks indistinguishable from the Galaxy Watch 8.<span class=\"zd-image-credit\">Andrew Lanxon\/CNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Health and safety features<\/h2>\n<p>The Watch 9\u2019s features are identical to those of the Watch 8, but that\u2019s not necessarily a bad thing. It has a slew of sensors, including a bioelectrical impedance analysis sensor, an electrical heart sensor, a gyro sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, an infrared temperature sensor, an optical heart rate sensor and a light sensor. It also has a skin analysis feature that tracks carotenoids (antioxidants in the skin) via different color LEDs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Watch Ultra 2 offers the same features, but adds to that with a few more adventure-specific modes. It has hydration guidance, which can predict sweat loss and offer suggestions to drink water to prevent dehydration. It has a trail-running feature that lets you download maps and monitor elevation and terrain. If you\u2019re into diving, the Watch Ultra 2 has a diving app that helps you track depth and temperature. However, the diving app isn\u2019t preloaded at launch, so we\u2019re not sure how helpful it is just yet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both the Watch 9 and the Watch Ultra 2 have emergency SOS and fall detection features.

It has an 800-mAh battery, which is a big 35% jump up from the 590-mAh battery on its predecessor. According to Samsung, it should last up to 60 hours with regular use, up to 48 hours in a low-power exercise mode and up to 100 hours in a power-saving mode.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both watches now have a Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear Elite processor instead of the Exynos W1000 chip that was in the Watch 8.
