Samsung Galaxy Ring is considered to be the latest wearable innovation from Samsung. Are you tired of wearing bulky smartwatches? Well, smart rings might just be the solution you’ve been waiting for. Samsung recently announced the upcoming release of the Galaxy Ring and it is set to launch alongside the sixth generation of their folding smartphones.
So, what do we know about the Galaxy Ring so far? While details are scarce, we can expect Samsung to prioritize wellness features in this new wearable. In early February, a Samsung executive hinted at a new wellness product set to debut in the second half of the year, likely alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Although the official names of these devices have not been confirmed, based on Samsung’s previous naming conventions, this seems plausible.
The Galaxy Ring marks Samsung’s entry into the smart ring market and it is a category that has been gaining traction in recent years. While Samsung has been quietly developing this technology since at least 2015, other brands like Oura Ring and Movano’s Evie Ring have already established themselves as popular choices among consumers.
But it’s speculated that the Galaxy Ring may fall within the range of existing smart rings such as Oura Ring starting at $300 and Evie Ring at around $180. From available renders and glimpses of the Galaxy Ring, we know that it will be available in various sizes and feature a sleek silver finish. However, it remains to be seen how Samsung will manage the distribution of different ring sizes whether through online orders or in-store availability.
In terms of functionality, the Galaxy Ring is expected to offer comprehensive health tracking capabilities, similar to Samsung’s line of smartwatches. Users can anticipate features like heart rate monitoring, activity tracking, and possibly even media playback controls.
