Designed for 24/7 health monitoring, Galaxy Ring offers a simple approach to everyday wellness. Blending timeless style with revolutionary functionality, it will be available in 9 different sizes, ranging from Size 5 to Size 13. Weighing just 2.3 grams for Size 5 with a width of just 7.0 mm, Galaxy Ring is ultra-lightweight, making it ideal for all-day wear. The weight of Galaxy Ring varies with size, going up to 3 grams for the biggest size (Size 13). Its distinct concave design adds a touch of elegance while maintaining durability. Despite its size, the device offers up to 7 days of battery life encased in a specially designed charging case that features aesthetic LED lighting to indicate charging status. The charging case comes with a clamshell design reminiscent of a jewellery box.

Engineered with premium materials, including a titanium finish for enhanced durability, Galaxy Ring is IP68 water- and dust-resistant and can withstand depths of up to 100 meters with its 10ATM rating. This makes Galaxy Ring a sophisticated yet rugged accessory, perfect for all use cases.

“The launch of Galaxy Ring marks a massive leap in Samsung’s commitment to democratize cutting-edge technology for everyone, helping users turn data in to meaningful insights and create a whole new era of expanded, intelligent health experiences. Galaxy Ring is not just another wearable, it’s a revolutionary health-tech device that blends innovation with accessibility. With advanced AI-driven insights, 24/7 health monitoring and a sleek, lightweight design, it empowers users to seamlessly track their wellness anytime, anywhere. With Galaxy Ring, we’re paving the way for a healthier, more connected future for all,” said Aditya Babbar, Vice President, MX Business, Samsung India.

Powered by Samsung’s proprietary “Health AI”, Galaxy Ring delivers real-time insights intuitively, so users can simply wear it and let the AI-driven insights work in the background, providing personalized recommendations and wellness tips. All data and insights are integrated into Samsung Health for seamless access within one cohesive platform without a subscription.

Starting with sleep, Galaxy Ring features Samsung’s best-in-class sleep analysis and a powerful sleep AI algorithm. Along with Sleep Score and snoring analysis, new sleep metrics such as movement during sleep, sleep latency, heart and respiratory rate provide a detailed and accurate analysis of sleep quality.

Additionally, Galaxy AI generates a detailed health report that includes health metrics like Energy Score to enhance consumer’s awareness of the ways their health influences your daily life. This score is calculated by evaluating physical and mental capacity across four significant factors: Sleep, Activity, Sleeping Heart Rate and Sleeping Heart Rate Variability. In addition, the Wellness Tips feature is driven by comprehensive data and provides personalized insights according to user’s goals. Galaxy Ring also supports everyday wellness monitoring, allowing users to stay informed about heart health with HR monitoring providing alerts for high/low heart rates. Galaxy Ring is able to auto-detect workouts (walking & running) as well as provides inactive alerts to users keeping them motivated to achieve their goals. Furthermore, Galaxy Smartphone consumers can activate simple Gesture controls (like double pinch) on Galaxy Ring to easily take photos or dismiss alarms. Furthermore, Galaxy Ring works seamlessly when worn simultaneously with Samsung Galaxy Watch providing enhanced accuracy of health and wellness tracking and improved battery life (up to 30%)
