The Samsung Galaxy Ring is anticipated to make its debut at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10. While the smart ring has been seen physically before, specific details about its functionality, pricing, and release date have been limited. However, a recent leak may provide some insights ahead of the event.

Key Details Uncovered in APK Teardown

Android Authority has reported uncovering significant details about the Samsung Galaxy Ring through an APK teardown of the Samsung Health app. Although this doesn’t reveal everything about the ring, it offers a glimpse into how the ring and app will work together.

Health Monitoring Features

The Samsung Galaxy Ring is expected to measure heart rate and stress levels, which are standard features for health-focused wearables. Additionally, it seems the ring will monitor skin temperature, predict menstrual cycles, and detect snoring. Snore detection, a feature already present in certain Galaxy Watches, uses both the smartwatch and your phone to track noise levels during sleep. The Galaxy Ring is likely to function similarly, with screenshots indicating it can measure snoring if your phone is charging nearby.

Comparison with Galaxy Watch

Many of these features are already available on recent Galaxy Watches, and the Galaxy Watch 7 is also expected to be unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked. While the APK teardown doesn’t provide complete details, it’s anticipated that the Samsung Galaxy Ring will offer more features while being slimmer and less bulky than a smartwatch.

Battery Life and Variants

Samsung claims that the Galaxy Ring will last up to 9 days on a single charge, though actual battery life will depend on the features used and the ring’s size. FCC documents reveal three different Galaxy Ring sizes, each with batteries of 17 mAh, 18.5 mAh, and 22 mAh. Reports also suggest the Galaxy Ring may include an ECG sensor and a sensor for blood flow measurements, though specifics remain unclear.

With Galaxy Unpacked happening next week, more information about the Galaxy Ring will soon be available. For the latest updates and a rundown of all the devices expected at the event, be sure to check out our Galaxy Unpacked hub.
