Samsung Galaxy Ring Allegedly Spotted on Good Lock App, Suggesting a Possible Upcoming Launch
Samsung Galaxy Ring Rumored to Feature Pogo Pin Charging Support
Samsung Galaxy Ring was announced at the Galaxy Unpacked event on Wednesday, January 17. It was accompanied by a small teaser video which hinted at the design. It was claimed to be a “health and wellness device.” However, the company did not reveal any feature details, nor did it confirm a launch timeline. Several leaks about the Galaxy Ring have surfaced online over the past few days. The possible dimensions of the smart ring were suggested previously, now it has been spotted on one of the firm’s software suites.
A Reddit user spotted the Samsung Galaxy Ring on the Good Lock application under the battery widgets section alongside other Samsung devices. This suggests that the device is under development and is likely to launch soon. It has previously been tipped to launch later this year alongside the purported Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.
An earlier report claimed that the upcoming Galaxy Ring will be “incredibly” lightweight. It is expected to be available in multiple sizes up to size 13 (22.2mm). The smart ring may also launch with three colour options. It is also likely to support pogo pin charging.
From the earlier teaser released by the company for the Samsung Smart Ring, a circular and smooth ring equipped with multiple sensors placed on the underside was showcased. These sensors are anticipated to facilitate health and fitness tracking, positioning the Galaxy Ring as a “powerful and accessible health and wellness device.”
The Galaxy Ring is expected to function as a comprehensive health and fitness tracker, capable of tracking, measuring, monitoring, and uploading data related to health, fitness, and sleep to relevant applications. Previous leaks have indicated that the device may come equipped with features such as electrocardiogram (ECG), photoplethysmography (PPG), atrial fibrillation (AFib) sensors, in addition to common functionalities like 24×7 heart rate monitoring, SpO2 measurement, and sleep tracking.
