Samsung Galaxy Ring Expected to Debut Alongside Galaxy S24 in January

Since October of the previous year, hints about the Samsung Galaxy Ring have been surfacing, and it appears that Samsung’s inaugural smart ring is nearing its launch, with an unveiling reportedly scheduled for January.

According to an inside source, the Samsung Galaxy Ring is set to be revealed alongside the Samsung Galaxy S24 lineup. What’s even more intriguing is that it’s being described as a “star product,” suggesting that it might steal the spotlight from the Samsung Galaxy S24 series. This implies that the Galaxy Ring is poised to be an impressive device in its own right or that the Galaxy S24 lineup may offer only incremental improvements over the previous Samsung Galaxy S23 series.

This rumor aligns with previous leaks, and while it should be taken with a grain of caution, the source has a credible track record. Another leak hinted at the commencement of mass production for the Samsung Galaxy Ring as early as August.

However, it’s worth noting that Samsung might need time to obtain medical device certifications for the Galaxy Ring, which could potentially delay its launch.

Based on trademark filings and patents, it’s anticipated that the Samsung Galaxy Ring will feature a heart rate monitor, an electrocardiogram (ECG) function, and sleep-tracking capabilities. It may also incorporate step tracking and blood oxygen monitoring capabilities akin to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6. However, these features are not yet confirmed.

In any case, the Samsung Galaxy Ring is poised to be one of the most prominent smart rings on the market and a significant competitor to products like the Oura (Generation 3). It might even establish itself as one of the top fitness trackers available.
