Samsung to release one million units of Galaxy Ring due to high consumer demand
Samsung's first smart ring, the Galaxy Ring, proved so popular that the company decided to double its initial production. The Galaxy Ring went on sale on 24 July 2024, after several weeks of pre-orders.
Here's What We Know
Samsung initially planned to produce 400,000 units of the Galaxy Ring, but according to South Korean media, the company has now increased this number to 1 million. The early reaction to the Galaxy Ring, especially in China, has been very positive, which has likely led to this increase in production.
The Galaxy Ring is Samsung's first product to combine smartwatch functionality with a ring form factor. It features an AMOLED display, fingerprint sensor, heart rate sensor, and a battery that is claimed to last up to a week on a single charge.
The increase in Galaxy Ring production shows that Samsung is confident in the success of the product. The company hopes that the Galaxy Ring will be able to compete with popular smart rings such as the Oura Ring.
Here are some of the key features of the Galaxy Ring:
- AMOLED display
- Fingerprint sensor
- Heart rate sensor
- Battery that will last up to a week on a single charge
- Compatible with Android and iOS
- Available in black, silver, and gold colours
The price of Galaxy Ring is USD 229.
