Last night, Samsung unveiled the latest-generation flagship Galaxy S24 series smartphones. The South Korean brand also surprised everybody with its first-ever smart ring. However, the company revealed very little information about the Galaxy Ring apart from giving a glimpse at the accessory and confirming Samsung Health support. Now, a consumer tech analyst Avi Greengart (via) got some hands-on time with the Galaxy Ring prototypes. He revealed some key details of the fitness tracker that Samsung did not disclose at the presentation.
Samsung Galaxy Ring more details emerge
Greengart says that he was not allowed to take pictures of the Galaxy Ring prototypes that was shown at the event. He adds that Samsung’s first-ever smart ring is ridiculously light. It will be available in up to 13 sizes. The South Korean brand has planned three finishes for the Galaxy Ring. Although there is no word on what these could be, we can expect ceramic and metal build. The analyst says that the smart ring boasts impressive engineering.
Greengart reveals that the Samsung Galaxy Ring is launching later this year. The price remains a mystery. The specific launch timeline of the smart ring remains unknown. But it could debut at Samsung’s next Galaxy Unpacked event in August which focuses on Galaxy Z foldables and the next-generation smartwatches.
Samsung touts that the Galaxy Ring is cutting edge with a powerful and accessible health and wellness device. Since its a smart wearable, we can expect all the health-tracking features on the device just like a smartwatch or fitness tracker.
The era of smart rings is slowly taking shape with players like Oura, Circular, Amazfit, and more. Samsung’s entry could just make it the hottest consumer tech segment and something to look forward to.
