Samsung Galaxy Watch9 and Ultra 2 confirmed with 10 W charging in China certification

China’s 3C certification database lists model numbers SM‑L3550 and SM‑L7150, identifying Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Both devices will support a maximum charging power of 10 W (5 V/2 A), the same rate as the current Watch 8 and the first Ultra model. The filings suggest Samsung will keep the existing charging architecture while focusing on other upgrades such as enhanced health‑tracking sensors and AI‑driven wellness features in its Samsung Health app. The certification appears ahead of a scheduled Galaxy Unpacked event on 22 July in London, where the new watches, along with foldable phones, are expected to be unveiled. Analysts note the unchanged charging speed may disappoint users seeking faster top‑ups, especially as rivals like Apple and Google push higher‑wattage solutions, but Samsung may offset this with improved battery efficiency and software enhancements. A possible classic variant of the Watch 9 is also rumored, likely sharing the same 10 W charging spec.
