Samsung Galaxy Ring Announcement: A Deeper Look
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ม.ค. 2024
- Samsung has just announced their Samsung Galaxy Ring, and with it, provided approximately zero details, except a pretty picture. But sometimes, a pretty picture speaks quite a bit.
To set the stage, literally, they had just finished talking about a handful of Samsung Health software updates that’ll be coming over the remainder of the year, including a daily readiness type score, as well as slightly more detailed sleep tracking. At that point, the screen went to black, and the announcer said:
“And today, we’re taking the possibilities of Samsung Health to the next level, by bringing Samsung’s Health cutting innovations to a brand new form factor.
We’ve created a powerful and accessible health and wellness device, here to change the shape of future health like only Samsung can. Meet the Galaxy Ring.”
We see a ring rotate briefly in a few directions over the course of about 8-10 seconds with no voice over or further information. However, there's more than meets the eye here.

That's the kind of video I've always wanted to see after a huge presentation from these brands like Samsung, apple etc ❤❤❤
I’m waiting for the iButtPlug so that Apple constantly knows what’s going on with my sphincter on a real time basis.
"Have a look at my ring" is never going to be an appealing invitation.
First time viewer, definitely will subscribe. I appreciate the straightforward data about your channel.
DC is great. Check out his blog too. Top guy.
@@jamesbelcher6357 absolutely, I'm guessing his blog is on the channel?
I always thought it would be Apple that would take on Oura but it turns out to be Samsung. Although I get a "Active lifetime membership" for being an early adopter of Oura, they blackmailed me into buying a new ring to get that "lifetime membership" (the 'Active' sounds like it might not actually last a lifetime) so I would welcome anything that hurts their greed moving to a subscription model. I like mine but can't recommend anyone pay monthly for it after forking out for the hardware. And if anyone from Oura is reading this: one shitty turn deserves another so there you go.
Don't worry, Apple will come along in a few years with the exact same thing, minus a few features but they'll "revolutionize it".
I can’t see Apple getting into the ring business, they would do better due to the stores being able to size and have stock, but they are committed to adding more sensors like blood pressure and Glucose
Apple can't even do their own Pulse Ox!
For those who follow tech, it's always been Samsung they are bigger then Google, Apple and Microsoft put together.
Samsung is way more creative than Apple fir the past 6 years. Apple stealing technology from Samsung and make it seem they are the originator.
Thanks for being on top of the.new tech (Per your usual)!
I wear at least 11 rings at all times so that I can fully track my health. Adding more rings is the only way to bring the HR accuracy up above 15%.
I don’t want to ask you where that eleventh ring is, Matt 🤣
@@toadlguy - 😆- Exactly
@@toadlguy that's where all the blood flow goes 😂
Good luck getting it off...
A plug for orifices is requested by some folks.
Predicting easy win for Samsung unless Oura ditches subscription model and matches pricing to whatever Samsung's ring is going to cost.
They should have used Gollum to do the intro
IMHO, Garmin should have invested in "ring" already
Nah, that's Amazon 😂
Hopefully Garmin releases ring as well
Oh yeah, a ring by Garmin.
27 models:
With Bluetooth but no hr
With hr but only one size
With Bluetooth and wifi but no sensors
With sapphire but no battery
With battery but just to use as a small light...
If I could, I would have subscribed again just for that heart rate accuracy bit ;)
I liked how you segwayed into requesting your viewers to subscribe 👌
Dutch birthday parties are weird in more ways but this is definitely one of them 😂 thanks Ray!
Thumbs up for that galaxy joke 😆 Looking forward to more competition in the ring space.
I completely agree! Everyone should subscribe. The best snark on the internet 😊
Yea thanks for the info ... and the last time i looked it said something like 60 to 80 million people going to buy this ring ... I want it ... I Want One As Well & Getting It ASAP !!!
I'm team Garmin but like the samsung Health homecreen for things like tracking body composition. It would be great if S Health could read by Garmin training TRImp etc
Like all in the industry they make money on the data. Nothing is free.
No idea why any service from a business should be free unless the government is paying them to serve the public
Sell me a tool to do the job. Let me decide if I want it. If I do I'll buy it. Not another subscription service .
@Pragmatist101 I'm happy to pay more for something that lasts. But I'd rather have a subscription(IF the device is cheaper) for something with a relatively short lifespan. The batteries won't last very long before charge life will decrease dramatically. If batteries were easily replaced, I'd pay a premium for it
More a case of giving it away to tie you into their ecosystem
Love your show - great insights and funny as $&@@& 😂👍
i just bought my S24 ultra thru t mobile when they released the preorders and i never had any issues!! i can't wait to get one in gold,, but i would like to know what is the best finger to wear it on left hand or right hand!?
Is there any advantage to having these sensors on a ring compared to a watch? For example, could it be technically easier to get better oxygen measurement with a ring compared to watch or the other way around? If there is no technical benefit that would enable better tracking for oxygen, heart rate or sleep, I guess any ring wouldn't be very interesting to someone like me who already has a watch doing these things.
if youre someone interested in only those specific features then a ring might with a week long battery might be more palatable than a watch that lasts a day or two
It frees up your wrist for a traditional mechanical watch for everyday life.
For me the only advantage was the sleep side and I wouldn’t wear a watch to sleep but could a ring. Ultimately I don’t wear my Oura any longer either though.
@@FrictionMr Why don't you wear a watch when sleeping, it bothers you? I never took even heavier watches of just for sleep and now I have a smaller very light Garmin that I barely even notice.
Should we wait for insta360 ace pro review?
I feel like thevring is already made with a limited amount of features. They're likely already developing the next couple generations which will introduce more features such as contactless payment.
Need Garmin to come out with a ring. Monthly fee of Oura kills me
If Garmin came out with a ring, or even an armband like the Polar Verity, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
I'd love to see a Garmin ring -- it would probably look like something found in a box of Cap'N Crunch in the '80s
Why a ting over a watch? What's the benefit
@@jared17ds on days I want to wear a fancier watch for work, events, etc. I’d put on the ring. Also, may be a little more comfortable to sleep in a ring then switch back to my watch during the day.
This is a very smart product. For all those people with fingers, but no wrists....
“One ring to rule them all”
thank you for the reminder to subscribe. guilty as charged lol I don't love sleeping in my Apple watch so I'm in the market for a ring, but don't wan that monthly fee with the Oura. I'm incredibly anti subscription.
They should have Gollum do a my precious promo
if the battery is better than my galaxy watch I would totally buy (more than 1 day) I really like tracking my health with it but miss wearing my normal watches and the battery life is so annoying.
So what are they going to make them in different sizes because one size won't fit every person
I actually miss the comparison with Ringconn's smart ring
God I wish Garmin would make a ring themselfs! I have been wearing Fenix watches for many years now, dont want to loose all the data, but I really want to switch to traditional watches...
Nice but i' m gonna wait to the next ring gen🔥
How accurate are they?
Any comments on this ring for use with apple iphone, Apple Watch, Apple AirPod systems? Maybe just get Samsung ring app and add to apple iphone screen and then have mostly all function but probably not to integrate at all to apple fitness and health apps?
"just takes the place of my wedding ring..."
As long as it does not take your wife's place 😂
Oh, it kind of does everything my Watch Pro 5 does..
Hope it will be comparable with garmin or that garmin comes up with their own ring. Would be better to track your sleep that way then sleeping with the watch
Forget the ring, I loved his shirt, anyone knows what brand it is?
Use samsungs circle to search 😂
Or just good old google lens
If it needs a monthly sub, then no thanks... there are non-sub versions out there with some cool features.
Literally take just away the gross subscription cost that Oura added and I'm interested. 👍🏻
How does this compare to the whoop?
It's honestly far too soon to know. I'd expect Whoop will be far deeper for quite some time in terms of analytics/features/etc...
When do we take the ring to Mordor?
If it can increase my Nitric Oxide levels I'm sold..........
100% not interested in a screw nut type of wearable. Not only it looks ugly and it is potentially obstructive in daily life (just look at the marks at Ray's ring), it leads to blisters during rowing sessions, hurts during chin-up training or when working at the rings.
By and large, these rings are not meant to be worn for those type of activities, more so for recovery tracking
Oura might not exactly be looking forward trying to sling some legal hindrance towards Samsung in this product space, being so completely dwarfed as far as available resources are concerned.
I thought that's a ball bearing that you are wearing.
Competition is always good even if it’s not as good as
Please get Garmin to make a ring or simple wrist band for sleep tracking. I can’t wear a Fenix to bed.
That will be 2000$
i am sure Amazfit will come out with ring better and cheaper with longer battery life as they do with their own watches.
Waiting for Garmin to come up with a ring...
Just find a black plastic ring and write Garmin on it. It will be just as functional and save you $400.
I dont think the "plastic" ring will upload data to Garmin Connect just by writing Garmin on it. @@sonofsamwaters8350
Isnt it just a more expensive fitbit then?
Minus the intense battery degradation, I love my Oura ring. However, I also wear a whoop band mainly for the fact that it has an alarm that works in conjunction with the sleep tracking. If Samsung manages to pack a tiny vibration motor in there, I’m jumping ship. Likewise, if Whoop would just give us the option to track steps, I’ll just wear that. I don’t really care for the strain score as after 3 years of wearing it, I still have no idea what it means lol. I know my Apple Watch can do it all, but it’s big as hell to sleep with and I mostly wear mechanical watches when I’m not working out. I just want one of these companies to do sleep, alarm, and steps!
Give it to gollum
So now Garmin!
lol @ 11:40 onwards...
Checking back here after a couple days. I guess Oura isn't actually going to respond. Not surprising.
4:30 you cant do an ECG with one contact point, you need at least two.
I mean, the patent is what it is. Still, the second point can easily be the outer edge of the ring, just like a watch.
@@Dcrainmaker Maybe i misunderstood what we are talking about here, but it is physically impossible to have an ECG with a ring or watch because it needs to pass trough your heart to get a signal. If you had a contact point in both hands it could work, but not with a single ring or a single watch.
@@Amin2kCorrect, you simply touch the ring with your other hands finger, completing the loop. Exact same concept as all the FDA certified smartwatches do it today.
@@Dcrainmaker That makes sense, i was under the impression that is was supposed to constantly monitor your ECG. Thanks for the explanation.
That one broken screen in the presentation really bugs me😅
Which one? I don't see any
Your screwdriver cluster f#+k is really distracting. I’ve subscribed for quite some time. Please fix that. Please. 🙏
If I could just find a way to wear it so it would not be visible...
I prefer Ring Fit Adventure 😎
No response from aura yet 😄
Interesting interpretation of that custom, however, it's much less cynical! Imagine it is my birthday and my neighbors are there. Whomever joins the party will congratulate everyone including that neighbors, even if they just moved in yesterday, and thus have nothing to do with keeping me alive. What the custom does do is: you wish everyone happiness, because one person celebrates their birthday (happiness [felix] being the Latin root of "gefeliciteerd"). Cheers and ride on!
If you're new, there is still no reply.
Let's be honest not too many people use the health features.
I know quite a few people with these types of products purely for the health features, maybe even more than not
That presentation speech was so fricking cheesy.
when we will expect a smart condoms?
Data will be a closed ecosystem, so no thanks...
subscription based products are a big no no to me, i avoid those products
Where is the Whoop 4.0 review?
Lets see if samsung can get giid readings with this device.. their watches are useless for heart rate tracking at least
Wish the galaxy watch read my heat rate through my tattoos. So I don't have to buy this ring.

@unimi2638: Ugh, you beat me. Wow, you beat me too. 😂! Congratulations! I truly hope this makes you feel better.
I expect this ring to be like v0.3 but hyped like v2.0. I used to be a huge Samsung user and had the first galaxy watch, which broke prematurely. Tried to get watch 4 and had a bad experience. In my view their health wearables aren't really very good or dependable. At least certainly nowhere near their phones which are fairly rock solid.
The watches have always been good smart watches but awful fitness watches.
Is this even necessary? Sounds schtoopit to me. Unnecessary and I think they should focus on audio/video but hey, I guess they could use the money. 🙄
Does this ring lower cholesterol ?? Or reduce cancer risk ??
Because if not then why anyone would need this ???
Generally speaking, health/activity trackers are designed to help you figure out if you're getting enough activity, enough sleep, and the right type of sleep. All of which do lower the risk for various illnesses, if you actually use the data from them.
I can't see many females wearing this from a desing standpoint.
Ah Hora, this sounds like a bad love story. Starts with, oh Samsung you validate me and appreciate me for who I am......( not much later) I take that back ! You can keep your ring! I never loved you anyway! Give me half! Talk to my lawyer!
Would have been more professional to say nothing. If you claim to be a visionary and industry leader, act like it.
Rings are toys. I will never understand why anyone would pay a monthly subscription. Not to mention the index finger thing. Ha! With this ring I now pronounce you.....married.

@alexanderthegreat3106: Ugh, you beat me. 😂! Wow, you beat me too. Congratulations! I truly hope this makes you feel better.
I wouldn’t trust Samsung to track my health data. I’ve tried several versions of the Samsung watch. The exercise tracking is absolute garbage. It’s a grab bag of issues. Sometimes no gps lock. Sometimes gps lock but doesn’t actually track distance. Or it just stops in the middle of the run. Every version of watch has the same issues…
