Samsung Galaxy Ring wearable will likely feature multiple ring sizes and finishes

Would a bigger ring mean more battery capacity? #samsung #galaxyring #wearable

Samsung did a “one more thing” tease at the end of its Galaxy S24 series Unpacked announcement, where the Korean company introduced The One Ring the Samsung Galaxy Ring wearable device.

Now, someone claims they’ve touched it, despite the ring wearable not being available for hands-on during the Unpacked event.

Avi Greengart, Lead Analyst at Techsponential (a US-based market research and advisory firm), said on Threads that the Samsung Galaxy Ring is “ridiculously light, comes in sizes up to 13, and is currently planned in three finishes”.

The analyst also added that the wearable would launch “later this year”, with no specific pricing details.

While it’s not unusual for wearables to come in various sizes for a better fit (see smartwatches in general), a ring wearable is a different beast altogether. Smartwatches can vary because the main components are typically stored within the watch case, and you can adjust the non-smart straps to your liking.

A wearable ring would mean having its circuitry and sensors encased in or around a curved physical construct. You could have a one-size-fits-all motherboard, but the rest of the ring would be hollow. That doesnt take sensor placement and battery size into account yet, since it would shift based on the size around your finger.

하늘 아래 요정왕들을 위한 세 반지

돌의 궁전 속 난쟁이 군주들을 위한 일곱 반지

죽을 운명의 인간들을 위한 아홉 반지

암흑권좌의 암흑군주를 위한 절대 반지

그림자가 드리운 모르도르의 땅에서,

모두를 지배하는 절대 반지, 모두를 찾아낼 절대 반지

모두를 불러낼 절대 반지, 그리고 암흑 속에서 그들을 속박하리니

그림자가 드리운 모르도르의 땅에서
