The $399.99 Samsung Galaxy Ring will track sleep, heart rate, and activity data. It also has some interesting ideas for Samsung’s wearable ecosystem.
Samsung may have launched three new smartwatches this year, but the wearable I’ve been most excited to see from the company was the Galaxy Ring. After months of teasing, Samsung officially announced the $399.99 smart ring at today’s Unpacked event — and I finally got to play around with one. Granted, I only got a short time with the Galaxy Ring, but so far, I like what I’ve seen.
The former uses Galaxy AI to determine how you’re feeling based on sleep, activity, sleeping heart rate, and sleeping heart rate variability. It’s similar to the various readiness metrics other health trackers have begun incorporating over the past few years. Meanwhile, based on your data, the latter delivers personalized insights into your well-being, again very reminiscent of what’s offered by the Oura Ring and other competitors.
