Samsung has recently released Samsung Health Beta update that hints at the possibility of the company introducing a smart ring. The Samsung Health Beta update, version 6.24.1.023, includes a “Feature List” that mentions “Ring Support.” While there is no further information provided about this feature in the list, it aligns with Samsung’s previous trademark registrations for smart ring names like “Galaxy Ring” and recent applications for “Samsung Circle,” “Samsung Index,” and “Samsung Insight” monikers.
Further details on the latest Samsung Health Beta update and Galaxy Ring
Samsung has been exploring the concept of a smart ring for several years, as evidenced by various patent applications. These patents suggest that Samsung has been considering entering the specialized market area of smart rings, potentially offering fitness monitoring features similar to those found in the Galaxy Watch.
It is plausible that Samsung’s efforts in this area may finally come to fruition, and the company might unveil the Galaxy Ring in the near future. This would mark Samsung’s foray into the smart ring market. Alternatively, the inclusion of “Ring Support” in the Samsung Health Beta update could indicate that the company is planning to offer support for smart rings created by other manufacturers, such as the Oura Ring, Circular Ring, or Go2sleep Ring.
In either scenario, it seems that Samsung is taking steps toward incorporating smart rings into its health and wellness ecosystem, potentially expanding its wearable offerings beyond smartwatches. Only time will tell what specific plans Samsung has in store for the smart ring space.
