Samsung unveiled One UI 9 Watch, its latest custom Wear OS interface, with the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9. Based on Wear OS 7, the update brings new convenience and health-focused features plus visual changes such as new watch faces. Samsung is expected to start rolling out One UI 9 Watch to older Galaxy Watch models soon.

Samsung will likely hold a One UI 9 Watch beta program for some of these watches before releasing the stable update. The expectation is that all watches going back to at least the Galaxy Watch 6 series, not including the FE model, will be eligible for the beta.
Samsung has not published an official list of Galaxy Watch models eligible for One UI 9 Watch. The information above is based on Samsung’s software update policy for smartwatches, communications from Samsung Support, and the publisher’s understanding of the company’s software rollout history.
