Yesterday, Samsung shared more information about its highly anticipated first smart ring, the Galaxy Ring. Initially unveiled at the Galaxy Unpacked event last month, the Galaxy Ring is scheduled to make its debut in the latter half of this year. Recently, the South Korean tech giant disclosed crucial details regarding the battery life of this upcoming wearable device.
Samsung Galaxy Ring Battery Life Revealed
During a Galaxy Ring briefing attended by Korean news outlet Financial News, it was revealed that Samsung's smart ring is expected to offer an impressive battery life ranging from five to nine days. The extended battery performance can be attributed to the absence of a traditional display, a feature commonly found in smartwatches. This means users can enjoy up to 9 days of continuous usage before needing to recharge. TechM also corroborates this information, stating that the confirmed battery life aligns with the earlier statements made by Samsung's mobile chief, TM Roh. Additionally, it was confirmed that the smart ring will not support voice calling functionality.
Galaxy Ring Launch Details
An article by The Elec, citing a Samsung Vice President, disclosed that the official unveiling of the Galaxy Ring is slated for the second half of the year. This indicates that the smart ring will likely be showcased at the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for late July or early August, focusing on the latest generation of Galaxy Z foldable devices, wearables, and tablets.
Specifications and Features
According to the information released yesterday, the Samsung Galaxy Ring will be available in three color variants: platinum silver, gold, and ceramic black. Catering to women's health needs, the device will incorporate Natural Cycles for fertility tracking. Moreover, users can benefit from the My Vitality Score feature, designed to gauge both mental and physical readiness. Samsung has emphasized that the Galaxy Ring will be equipped with cutting-edge sensors, although specifics regarding these sensors remain undisclosed. The sleep-tracking functionality will encompass monitoring heart rate, sleep latency, and nighttime movements.
Pricing and Availability
