Samsung’s smart ring could launch alongside its new foldables

Earlier this year during the official announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S24 smartphones, Samsung also confirmed the existence of its smart ring. We’ve been hearing rumors that Samsung was developing a smart ring, and at the end of the event, the company teased the design.

As to when the device will be announced, a report from ETNews has suggested that the Galaxy Ring will be announced at Samsung’s second Galaxy Unpacked event later this year. Samsung usually hosts a couple of Galaxy Unpacked events a year. One is usually for its Galaxy S-series of flagships, and the other is for its foldables.

Assuming that this report is correct, the Galaxy Ring could be announced alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6. The event could also see Samsung introduce a more affordable foldable phone.

Not much is known about the wearable right now, but seeing as there aren’t too many smart rings in the market, the Oura might be a good indication of what we might be able to expect. Needless to say this should be taken with a grain of salt, but if you’re interested in a smart ring more than a smartwatch, then the Galaxy Ring could be worth keeping an eye out for.
