All health tracking features are included at no extra cost. No monthly membership required — sleep staging, HRV trends, vascular insights, and health reports are all free in the app.
AI-supported blood pressure trend insights built from heart rate, SpO2, skin temperature, and movement data — with a built-in vibration motor that delivers silent alerts for health changes and sedentary reminders.
Up to 14 days on a single charge — roughly double Oura Ring 5 — plus a universal charging case that extends total battery life for weeks of travel.
Unlike Oura Ring which requires a $5.99/month membership for full features, the Galaxy Ring's complete feature set is included in the $399.99 purchase price with no recurring fees.
Galaxy Ring pairs with Samsung's Galaxy AI to generate a daily Energy Score combining sleep quality, activity, and heart rate data — plus personalised Wellness Tips in Samsung Health.
Up to 7 days between charges and rated for 100m water resistance — suitable for swimming, showering, and continuous overnight sleep tracking.
The right pick depends on what you optimize for.
