Samsung Galaxy Ring Expands Size Range and Introduces Advanced Health Tracking Features

January 14, 2025 – Samsung is making significant efforts to enhance the appeal of its Galaxy Ring smart ring by expanding its health tracking capabilities and ensuring it fits a wider range of users. The company has announced that the Galaxy Ring will now be available in sizes ranging from 5 to 15, with the addition of two new sizes (14 and 15) compared to last year. These new sizes will come in silver, gold, and black color options, and are scheduled to be unveiled along with the upcoming Galaxy S25 series on January 22, 2025.

Furthermore, Samsung has revealed that the Galaxy Ring will be launched in 16 new countries and regions, including Cyprus, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, Mauritius, New Zealand, Singapore, Slovakia, South Africa, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Zambia.

In terms of software features, the Galaxy Ring will introduce a “Mindfulness Tracker” for the first time, which will soon be available in the Samsung Health application. The new Mindfulness section will display a calendar that summarizes users’ daily emotions, breathing, and stress levels using easy-to-understand colored emojis. This feature aims to provide a simpler way to organize data collected by the Galaxy Ring and help users better manage their physical and mental health.

During the first half of 2025, Samsung also plans to roll out a new Sleep Environment Report feature. This functionality will integrate data such as temperature, humidity, air quality, and light intensity from devices connected via SmartThings into users’ morning sleep reports. To utilize this feature, users will need to connect thermostats, air quality monitors, or smart bulbs to their Samsung SmartThings account.

Later in 2025, the Galaxy Ring will receive another update that suggests optimal bedtime and wake-up times based on users’ sleep patterns, habits, and conditions. This new analytical feature is designed to assist users in establishing regular sleep schedules and avoiding behaviors that may disrupt sleep quality, such as staying up late to watch TV shows.

While these new features are still some time away from being implemented and rely on existing data to function effectively, users will have ample time to accumulate sleep data to receive more accurate analysis and recommendations when the features are launched.
