Samsung Galaxy Ring: The Ultimate Smart Ring for Samsung Users

At first glance, the Samsung Galaxy Ring appears to be a comprehensive device that integrates seamlessly with the Samsung Health app, leveraging AI and advanced health tools for a smooth, “set and forget” wearable experience. Although we need more time to thoroughly test it, the hardware features some unique touches that may give it an edge over competitors like Oura for current Samsung users.

Pros:

  • Up to 7-day battery life
  • Convenient earbuds-style charging case
  • No subscription fee

Cons:

  • Requires Samsung Health app
  • High initial cost

Although we need more time to thoroughly test it, the hardware features some unique touches that may give it an edge over competitors like Oura for current Samsung users.

What Is It All About?

Over the past year, our journey towards the final version of the Samsung Galaxy Ring has been filled with rumors, surprise reveals, secret meetings, and plenty of witty Lord of the Rings jokes.

Samsung is venturing into a new territory with this smart ring, previously dominated by startups like Oura Health, which makes the current best smart ring, the Oura Ring. The success of the Galaxy Ring is crucial for Samsung, with competitors like Google and Apple closely monitoring its potential to shape the future of health-focused wearables.

After finally testing the gold and black versions of the Galaxy Ring, it’s clear that the device is designed for a “set and forget” experience, boasting a water resistance of up to 100 meters, a battery life of nearly a week, and impressive scratch resistance.

The Galaxy Ring is intended to be a passive wearable, focusing more on overall wellness rather than fitness. It excels in sleep tracking, incorporating features like sleep profiles and personalized sleep guidance driven by Galaxy AI.

Design

Comfortable to wear, the Galaxy Ring comes in sizes ranging from US size 5 to 13, with the weight and battery size varying accordingly. Despite its lack of a display, it passively tracks health metrics, with all updates available through the Samsung Health app. It’s available in three colors and constructed from scratch-resistant titanium. The ring’s concave shape protects it from damage, similar to the design of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.

Functionality

The Galaxy Ring tracks heart rate, sleep quality, skin temperature, blood oxygen levels, and more, with Galaxy AI monitoring for unusual heart-rate data. It supports gesture controls for Samsung phones and extends battery life when used with a Galaxy Watch.

Conclusion

The Samsung Galaxy Ring is an impressive wearable, especially for Samsung users. However, its best features are limited to Samsung devices, making it less appealing to users of other brands. It is shaping up to be a strong competitor in the smart ring market, but not the definitive “one ring to rule them all.”
