The smart ring market has just got a whole lot more interesting with the launch of Samsung’s latest wearable device, the Galaxy Ring. This sleek and stylish accessory is set to take on the likes of Oura, RingConn, and Circular, but can it really hold its own against such stiff competition?
Design and Build
At first glance, the Galaxy Ring is an impressive piece of kit. Made from Grade 5 titanium, it’s available in three stylish colours - Titanium Silver, Titanium Black, and Titanium Gold. The unique concave surface is designed to be scratch-resistant, and at just 2.3-3g, it’s incredibly lightweight. But, despite its premium materials, the Galaxy Ring doesn’t quite feel as luxurious as we expected.

Features and Functionality
Where the Galaxy Ring really comes alive is in its features and functionality. Powered by artificial intelligence, it can track your heart rate, exercise, and sleep quality, giving you an overall energy score that appears in the Samsung Health app. You’ll also find wellbeing tips based on your goals inside the app, whether you want to improve your overall fitness, get a better night’s sleep, or lose weight.
The Galaxy Ring also boasts gesture support, allowing you to control your device with simple hand movements. Plus, with no subscription fees, you can enjoy all these features without breaking the bank.

Charging and Battery Life
The Galaxy Ring’s charging case is a game-changer. Not only is it easy to use, but it also supports wireless charging. The ring itself can last up to seven days on a single charge, and the case can top it up four to six times before needing to be recharged.
