Samsung has officially taken the wraps off its second-generation smart ring—the Samsung Galaxy Ring 2—and it’s packing some serious upgrades. After months of speculation, leaks, and teasers, the new model was revealed today with improved health sensors, longer battery life, and a sleeker titanium build.
Stronger, Smarter, Sleeker
The Galaxy Ring 2 is more than just a follow-up—it’s a full-on refinement of what smart rings can be. It comes in multiple sizes, weighs less than 3 grams, and is built from lightweight titanium. And yes, it’s designed to be worn 24/7 without feeling bulky or awkward.
Here’s a Look at the Full Specs:

Health Tracking Gets a Boost
Samsung is pushing harder into wellness. The Galaxy Ring 2 offers more accurate sleep tracking, daily readiness scores, continuous heart monitoring, and skin temperature sensing—similar to what you’d find in top-tier fitness trackers, all packed into a ring.
One new standout feature is real-time stress tracking. The ring detects fluctuations in heart rate variability (HRV) and uses that to help users manage stress in real-time.
Compatible with Galaxy, Works with Android
As expected, the ring plays best within the Samsung ecosystem, particularly with Galaxy phones and the Samsung Health app. But the good news is it still works with most modern Android devices, giving it broader reach than some competitors like Oura.
A Silent Rival to the Smartwatch?
That’s the big question. While the Galaxy Ring 2 isn’t aiming to replace a smartwatch, it’s a solid alternative for users who prefer minimalism, especially for sleep or workouts. It’s discreet, stylish, and doesn’t scream “tech” like a bulky wrist device might.
Pricing & Availability
Samsung hasn’t confirmed the exact global release date yet, but insiders expect the Galaxy Ring 2 to hit the market by July 2025, with pricing likely around $299. Early access will likely be rolled out for Samsung Members first.
Bottom Line:
The Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 is more refined, more capable, and more comfortable than its predecessor. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to try a smart ring, this might be the one to grab.
