The Samsung Galaxy Ring made a grand entrance as Samsung’s first smart ring, providing a strong competitor to the popular Oura Ring. With its appealing design, portable charger, good battery life, and solid tracking capabilities without the need for a subscription, it quickly became our favorite smart ring in 2024.
Now, all eyes are on the successor, the Samsung Galaxy Ring 2, expected to build upon the success of its predecessor. Rumors suggest that the Galaxy Ring 2 may make its debut at Samsung’s Unpacked 2025 event alongside the Galaxy S25 series, following a similar timeline to the original ring’s launch in July 2024.
As for the pricing, it is anticipated that Samsung will maintain a subscription-free model for the Galaxy Ring 2, with a price tag similar to the original at £399/$399. However, there is a possibility of a price increase if Samsung decides to venture into the luxury market like Oura did with its collaboration with Gucci, pushing the price to £1,000/$1,000.
Speculations surrounding the specs and features of the Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 include the addition of more ring sizes, improved battery life, potential ECG capabilities, and sleep apnea detection. These features would position the Galaxy Ring 2 as a strong contender in the smart ring market.
In terms of design, consumers are hoping for a thinner and more attractive design for the Galaxy Ring 2, with additional color options to stand out from the crowd. An improved companion app tailored specifically for the ring and enhanced health and well-being insights are also on the wishlist for the upcoming device.
While details on the Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 are still scarce, we will continue to update this article as new rumors and official announcements surface. Stay tuned for the latest information on Samsung’s highly anticipated smart ring successor.
