Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ring on Wednesday marking its first venture into “smart rings.” The South Korean tech company aims to connect its products — like smartphones and wearables — and provide health-tracking features to compete with Apple’s efforts in this area.
The Samsung Galaxy Ring is a light ring with sensors that monitor health around the clock, as announced at the company’s Galaxy Unpacked event Wednesday in Paris. It can track various health indicators throughout the day including heart rate, steps, sleep menstrual cycle and overall activity. Users should wear the Ring all day everyday.
Samsung’s Galaxy Ring expands its device lineup offering health tracking capabilities alongside its smartphones and smartwatches. Samsung positions the ring as a companion to its smartwatches and smartphones using AI software to provide a complete overview of a person’s health. This strategy might boost sales of its other products.
The Galaxy Ring’s weight ranges from 2.3 to 3 grams, depending on the size you choose. You can get the device in three different colors.
Samsung claims the Galaxy Ring’s battery has a lifespan of up to a week. It comes with a portable charging case similar to wireless earbuds. You can buy the Samsung Galaxy Ring from July 24, with prices beginning at $399.99.
