Samsung Galaxy Ring could soon come in larger sizes
Source: The Verge added 19th Dec 2024Samsung might be introducing two larger size options for its Galaxy Ring wearable as early as January, according to leaker Max Jambor and new details spotted by 91mobiles in a Galaxy Ring manual. The Galaxy Ring is currently available in sizes five to 13, while the new options will expand that to 14 and 15, helping it to better compete with the Oura Ring which is already available in sizes four to 15.
An image of a Samsung user guide shared by 91mobiles lists nine model numbers of the Galaxy Ring — SM-Q500 to SM-Q509 — corresponding to the size options already available, plus two new additional model numbers, SM-Q514 and SM-Q515. The user guide doesn’t have any additional details about the new models, but they correspond to model numbers listed on certifications for the Galaxy Ring from a Norwegian organization (NEMKO) that does safety testing and inspections for electronic devices.
Over the past few months, Max Jambor has revealed additional details about the new Galaxy Ring size options on X. They’re expected to be available starting sometime in January 2025 and size 14 will have a 23-millimeter inner diameter while size 15 will expand that to 23.8 millimeters, with both options weighing 3.2 grams. The current size options weigh between 2.3 and 3.0 grams.
Unlike smartwatches, you need to purchase a smart ring that’s appropriately sized for your finger for both comfort and to ensure it works effectively. That’s why companies like Oura and Samsung offer sizing kits you order ahead of time so you can test various samples to determine your size. With these two new size options, Samsung’s Galaxy Ring will be available to more users. And although the company says its wearable follows standard US ring sizing, we’ve found that “smart rings and regular rings absolutely do not wear the same,” according to The Verge’s Victoria Song, and highly recommend always going the sizing kit route.
