Galaxy Ring: Meet Samsung’s newest health tracking wearable
The era of health tracking wearables has taken a big leap after Samsung unveiled their first ever Galaxy Ring.
The Galaxy Ring was first showcased at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2024 earlier this year. Aside from its design, Samsung did not provide additional information as to what the ring entails. That is, until today, where we finally got the low-down as they unveiled the ring at the latest Galaxy Unpacked event.
In short, the Galaxy Ring takes essential health tracking sensors and condenses them into an unobtrusive ring form factor. It’s designed as something to be worn the full 24 hours to accurately track your health status, as opposed to smartwatches that are often taken off for stretches of the day, especially when you sleep.
You’ll have heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and energy scores all synced up to the Samsung Health app, where you’ll get a full report of your health. The great thing being that no subscription is needed to access these features.
If you’re wondering, the Galaxy Ring charges via a charging case. They didn’t give much information about the mechanics, but they did claim that the ring will last seven days on a single charge.
Samsung unveiled the ring in three colours so far: Black, Silver, and Gold, all of which are made of titanium.
In the US, the Galaxy Ring retails at USD399 (~RM1869.28). Samsung Malaysia has yet to confirm if the Galaxy Ring will arrive at our shores, so stay tuned for more information.
