It was seen by people around GalaxyClubFound firmware for device model number SM-L715F on Samsung servers. Given the similarity between this model number and the model number believed to belong to the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, it is likely that this model number was added to a variant of the Ultra 2.
Samsung tends to use the number “6” in its numbering scheme to represent 5G models. Meanwhile, the number “5” is used to indicate 4G/LTE connection and “0” usually indicates Wi-Fi only. With that in mind, the newly discovered model number points to a 4G/LTE version of Samsung’s next flagship smartwatch.
It is possible that Samsung plans to introduce two versions of the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, with the 5G model only available in certain regions. If so, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the 5G model sold in South Korea and the US, while the 4G model is sold everywhere.
