An excellent set and forget technology
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before I begin my review, let me recommend you get the Galaxy Ring Sizing Kit to ensure that you properly size the Ring before ordering it. It had been such a long time since I last purchased a ring that I didn’t have any idea which size to order. I also didn’t know which finger I wanted to wear the ring on, so ordering the Galaxy Ring Sizing Kit was a big help. The sizing kit has 9 different sizes to choose from, ranging from size 5 to size 13. Do keep in mind that the Galaxy Ring only comes in whole sizes, not half or quarter sizes. For example, you won’t be able to order a Galaxy Ring in size 7.5. Also keep in mind that the larger the ring size, the bigger the internal battery. The one I chose was a size 13, the largest size available. As such, it has about a week’s worth of battery. Size 13 has a 23.5ma battery, while the smaller ring sizes will have respectively smaller batteries. Now, about the Ring: ================== My size 13 Ring is very light weight, so much so that I forget that I’m wearing it. I wear it all day long, and all night long, too. I wear it when exercising – including when I’m lifting weights. I wear it when cooking, cleaning, showering, and sleeping. I am sometimes aware I’m wearing the Ring during certain activities - like playing golf or lifting weights. It’s to be expected, and I simply adjust my grip so that it’s not a problem. The charging case for the Ring is a transparent plastic. It is a very attractive case that has a USB type-C port on the rear for recharging the case itself. Flip open the case and you’ll find a nub that the Ring slides onto in order to store and/or recharge the ring. The top of the nub has a button you can press. Tap the button once and a white circle of light illuminates to show you how much battery capacity the case has left. As noted in the previous paragraph, just slide the Ring down on the nub until it is fully seated to start the Ring’s recharge process. From all the information I’ve gathered, the case has sufficient battery capacity for an additional 1.5 ring charges. You can go from 0% battery to 40% in just about 30 minutes if you need to quick charge the Ring. In addition to just tapping the button on the nub to see the case’s battery level, tap and hold the button to turn on pairing mode if you need to transfer the Ring to a different Android phone. To manage the Ring, you will need to install the Galaxy Wear app on your Android phone. I have a Samsung Smart Watch as well, so the Wear app shows me both the watch and the ring. It also shows me the battery levels of both. I haven’t let the ring’s battery get too low at this writing, so I don’t know if the Wear app will alert me with a low-battery notification for the Ring if it runs low on battery. Before I forget, please note that the Galaxy Ring does not need a subscription. And, it does not replace the need for having a smartwatch. In addition to monitoring your heartbeat, the Ring also monitors skin temperature and blood oxygen. Skin temperature can help women predict when their monthly cycles will begin (per Samsung). It also has a heart rate alert. The feature allows you to specify how low or how high your heart rate is to go for the app to trigger an alert. This hasn’t happened to me yet, so I don’t know what the alert looks like. I have my Low Heart Rate set at 40 beats per minute and my High Heart Rate set to 120. The Ring can and does monitor your sleep. I don’t wear my smartwatch at night, so all sleep related information I find in the Samsung Heath app originates from the Ring. One funny note: Since receiving the Ring, people have been asking me why I’m wearing a wedding ring on my index finger. I have the matte black version of the Ring and it does look just like a wedding ring. In conclusion, I like this ring. It’s a set and forget type of device – which is exactly my style. And as I noted above, it’s so light that I forget I’m wearing it. And since it looks like a genuine ring, you don’t look like a Borg character from some Star Trek series. Very cool!
I would recommend this to a friend Not worth the cost
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well built with a cool charging case, but very much lacking features in the app and not worth it at half the price. The app has no insight or correlation width the data from the ring. Needs much improvement.

Posted .Howdy Maga, thank you for taking the opportunity to share your sentiments with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Ring. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to make improvements on the functionality and performance of our product line. As you know, Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on your device for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. On a single charge, the Galaxy Ring can last up to 7 days, depending on usage. Battery life may be extended by up to 30% if worn alongside a Galaxy Watch, as this helps reduce redundant feature usage.

Also, usage patterns: frequent use of features like sleep tracking, work auto detection, and gesture controls can impact how long the battery lasts. Check out "How to charge the Galaxy Ring" and "Galaxy Ring won't charge" to help resolve what you've described to be experiencing with your battery life.

Poor Quality and Battery Life
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've trust Samsung products for their quality. I purchase the ring in August 2024 and used it daily, following the care instructions for optimal results. The app syncs well with the ring and my Samsung phone, helping track sleep patterns and basic health info. However as of February 2025, the ring's battery last less than 24 hours after a full charge, significantly shorter than the 7 days it originally held. I expected better battery life for a 7 month old device.

Best Buy is Terrible. Buy it elsewhere!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ring is not that great. Especially when it is the same price as some other rings by Oura. I bought it as a gift, my wife didn’t open it up until a week after I bought it because it was a gift and she did not get it until that time. Best Buy only gives 15 days for return. She wore for one week and it did not pick up her workout, the interface on the Samsung app is not that great. When I try to return it, Best Buy said I could not return it because I was outside of the window. They did not give me any options, they forced me to buy the Best Buy plus program for $50 in order to get my refund back. That is ridiculous, this is a big scam. I recommend you buy it from Amazon where they give you 30 days no hassle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDO NOT get for sleep tracking
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible... I mean, an atrocious sleep tracker if you move in bed. 5 days in a row, I go to sleep around 10 pm and wake up around 7 am. The ring shows that I sleep 1-2 hours and time in bed starting at 5 am. I have done the advanced settings and also set up my time in bed.... This ring just sucks.

Not enough information.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was not made clear on website or in store w/tech that you MUST have Samsung Galaxy phone to get the benefits of this product. Otherwise it's just a very expensive step counter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Buyer Beware
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main reason for the 1 star review is 2-fold. Initially, I liked the ring. I bought it mainly to track my sleep apnea and 02 scores while asleep. All of the other stuff was just icing on the cake. It was a steep investment monetarily for the price, but if it did the job, worth it. When I later discovered it had a shelf life of barely over 2 years and 400 charge cycles, I was put off but it wasn't a deal breaker. It was then I decided to just wear it at night to track my sleep scores, which should extend the life of the ring greatly. Then I found out I get a very limited sleep reading when I only wear it at night and no 02 scores at all. It was at this point I decided to return it, but when I went on the BB site to start a return, I discovered the return window had closed, yet I'd only had the ring for 15 days. Evidently you have only 14 days to return the product. This has turned my stomach to owning anything Samsung ever again, including TV's and phones. I don't like being taken advantage of like that after having been a good customer for decades.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.14 months after I bought and the battery goes from 100% to 50% in less than 12 hours. Check other people complaining about battery all around. It is a huge problem in this product. I do not recommend.

Open box failure
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I attempted to purchase a like new open box samsung ring. First time I received a brand new looking package but the ring in the box was actually a size 8. Even though the box was right. Second ring after arrived out of the box, no original box, not even the book. Lo and behold, doesnt work. Returned it and ended up with a 100 gift card in leiu of my spent cash. Never again.

Battery Failed within 1 Year
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would not recommend based on my personal experience. After 9 months of use, the battery has gone from lasting a full week on a single charge, to only ~5 hours. Researching this issue on google has revealed many other experiencing this kind of issue. Samsung support has not been the most helpful in getting this resolved. I would wait for a 2nd or 3rd gen variation of this device before committing to the price tag.

Best Buy Customer Service Fail
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the ring as a gift. As a BB member, I got a discount plus the ring came with a $50 gift card. Unfortunately, the ring size was wrong. Upon exchanging for the right size, Best Buy employeees were confused. They were charging me extra $50 because I got a gift card when I first bought it. It’s a simple exchange for a wrong size. Very simple to understand. I do not know why Best Buy is not equipped or have the ability to understand an even exchange transaction. Nevertheless, I will be returning the ring and buying it from another vendor who understands a simple exchange transaction.
I would recommend this to a friendWorse than a $20 ring from China
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ring had less features than a $20 smart ring I got from China. To use most of the features, you have to have a Galaxy Watch. Not only that, but you must install a ton of Samsung bloatware on your phone to run it. It's also thicker and less comfortable than my cheap ring. Very disappointed.

I had surgery and haven’t been active, so the ring gives me a lousy energy score because I'm not active, but everything else is good. Sometimes, my heart rate is 30 beats off. It shows my sleep pattern is bad most of the nights.
