The Samsung Galaxy Ring, anticipated to hit the market in 2024, is generating quite the buzz. It appears that Samsung is gearing up to potentially replace some of its health-tracking devices, such as smartwatches, with this innovative smart ring, promising even more precise health observations.
Earlier leaks offered a glimpse of design renders for this intriguing wearable, and the company has reportedly trademarked various names for the product. While the official name is still under wraps, a recent tip suggests that the Galaxy Ring could steal the spotlight at the 2024 Galaxy Unpacked event, alongside the expected unveiling of the Galaxy S24 smartphone series.
Renowned tipster Ice Universe, in a Weibo post translated from Chinese, hinted that the smart ring might take center stage at the 2024 Galaxy Unpacked event, possibly scheduled for January next year. Speculation has been rife about Samsung’s smart ring, with rumors suggesting it could eventually supplant Galaxy Watch models as Samsung’s primary health-tracking device.
As of now, Samsung has not confirmed the existence of this product or its official name. However, reports have indicated that Samsung has secured trademarks for several potential names for this smart wearable. These monikers include Galaxy One, Galaxy Pulse, Galaxy Rhythm, Galaxy Index, Galaxy Insight, or Galaxy Circle.

Based on a previous filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the rumored Galaxy Ring is expected to excel at tracking, measuring, monitoring, and uploading health, fitness, and sleep-related data. It is said to be capable of observing “biometric and physiological data, vital signs, and personal health records” and may even offer medical advice when needed.
One key highlight of the Galaxy Ring is its multiple sensors placed along the inside of the ring, which are anticipated to provide exceptionally accurate health data. A prior leak showcased the smart ring’s sleek metallic finish. Notably, Boat, a tech company, has recently introduced its own Smart Ring equipped with various health-tracking features, currently available in a metallic Silver color and priced at $119 USD.
