Samsung briefly teased its Galaxy Ring on the Galaxy S24 Unpacked last month but now we have more details as the wearable has been officially announced. Samsung hasn’t released pricing and availability details since it arrives later this year, but we’ve got a lot more details for the first Galaxy Smart Ring.
The Galaxy Ring will be marked S through XL on the inside of the ring in US ring sizes 5 – 13. Samsung’s ring has a concave shape that tapers in the middle instead of the convex look of the Aura Ring. The Galaxy Ring will be offered in three colors – Ceramic Black, Platinum Silver and Gold.
The Galaxy Ring tracks heart rate, breathing rate, sleep and nighttime movements and can even detect early signs of sleep apnea. Samsung is also advertising the Ring as a companion to the Galaxy Watch that allows for high-quality 24/7 health and activity tracking.
It also calculates your vitality score based on a combination of daily activity, sleep, resting heart rate and heart rate variability. Users can set specific fitness goals and receive feedback on their progress through booster cards that can be found in the Galaxy Health app.
The Samsung Galaxy Ring will be exclusively compatible with Samsung Galaxy smartphones at launch, with plans to expand to more Android devices later.
