The Galaxy Ring is designed as a health tracker, offering accurate readings of various bodily measurements, including blood flow, ECG for heart rate checks, and possibly wireless payments.
The new technology is expected to be launched at the upcoming Unpacked event in July, with a sleek and stylish design available in black, silver, and gold, and will include a "Lost Mode" feature in the Samsung Find app.
The Galaxy Ring may be priced around $300 to $350 in the US, with an additional $10 subscription for Samsung Health.
Samsung is also reportedly developing a new foldable smartphone, the Galaxy Z Flip 6, with a slightly larger battery capacity of around 4,000 mAh, a 296 mAh increase over the previous model, and will also support Wi-Fi 6E and 25W charging.
The upcoming Samsung devices, including the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and 7, are expected to focus on AI integration for health and generative tools, according to the FCC listing.
Apple is also reportedly developing a smart ring, which may function as a remote control with touch and pressure sensors to control various Apple ecosystem devices, with a focus on when Apple will release their smart ring, given Samsung's success with the Galaxy Ring.
