Samsung is expanding its wearable options with a fitness-focused Galaxy Ring. Samsung’s watches are among the best smartwatches in today’s market. Samsung doesn’t seem to be content to sit back and relax despite the line’s success. Rather, the business is switching to a different bodily part and a considerably smaller form size.
Samsung Galaxy Ring Expected Price
The current price range for Oura Rings is between $300 and $550, depending on the material and features. Other products in the same range include the Circular Slim ($297), Circular Pro ($409), and Evie Ring ($269).
With a $250 Galaxy Ring, Samsung might undercut Oura, but they’ll probably match it. Based on the integrated health features of Samsung’s wristwatch, we could also be able to make an educated guess. The price of the Galaxy Watch 6 and 6 Classic ranges from $239.99 to $369.99, depending on size and features.
Samsung Galaxy Ring Release Date
After Samsung’s Unpacked event on January 17, we got a sneak glance at the Galaxy Ring. Given the disclosure, we anticipate its release this year. It is anticipated to make its official debut in late July at the Unpacked showcase; if that happens, it will be released in the summer or fall of this year.
The July 2023 ceremony marked the launch of Samsung’s new range of Galaxy Watches, and the Ring would naturally fit into that role.
Galaxy Ring Specs and Features
After a brief glimpse at the Galaxy Ring during Unpacked, we were able to deduce the functions of three of the sensors given what is currently available in Samsung’s Galaxy Watch and other health-tracking rings.
Heart rate and steps are the two most basic functions of most wearables, and the Galaxy Ring will undoubtedly measure both. The inclusion of sophisticated cardiological features like as blood pressure monitoring, atrial fibrillation diagnosis, or blood pressure monitoring may be contingent upon Samsung’s ability to obtain FDA authorization for Ring as a medical device.
It is most likely optical sensors for blood oxygen and pulse that make up the two-by-two array of sensors on the Galaxy Ring. The other one is hard to see, but the bulge on the side looks like a temperature gauge.
If you’re going to wear the Galaxy Ring all day, a skin temperature sensor also seems plausible. Skin temperature variations can occur as a result of stress or disease as well as during normal sleep. It makes it natural that the Galaxy Ring would use additional sensors to monitor sleep.
We can probably get an idea of what the Galaxy Ring will do by comparing it to the health features on Samsung’s other wearable. The Galaxy Watch 6, which launched in 2023, does the following:
- Body composition
- Cycle tracking
- Fall detection
- Irregular heart rate
- Skin temperature
- Sleep
