For Samsung, who for the last few months has been teasing us all, the time has come to reveal their new wearable ambition, the Galaxy Ring. The smart ring features promises to renew the consumer’s relationship with the digital world forever. But what about the Samsung Galaxy Ring exactly? To sum it up in a few words, it’s a cool smart ring.
The Galaxy Ring’s journey started at the Galaxy S4 Unpacked launch this Spring. This was Samsung’s first step towards wearables, and a moment when techies and fashionistas alike understood that the future of wearables wouldn’t necessarily be about geeky functions, but about a cool accessory that can go with any outfit. But it’s not just about the style, it’s also about charging the darn thing. That’s where recent leaks come in.
In another leak, we now know a little more about how the Galaxy Ring will keep its battery topped up: the ring will charge from another new Samsung device, a case that is supposed to resemble the Galaxy Buds earphones. This isn’t just about looks, though: it will have to be practical to work, capable of keeping the ring snugly in place and with the right part of the ring in close contact to the coil in the case to ensure the power is properly transferred. Many existing smart rings use wireless charging in a way that makes the ring be carried in a charger when not used.
The charging case that holds the Galaxy Ring is simple to use, plus it looks great. The top section with an elevated area that holds the ring, and a set of charging pins for the energy transfer, flatters the shape of the ring, ready to charge. A thoughtful extra is the cutout on the top to capture the ring, so that it doesn’t fall out. The case has a USB-C connector set into the back end, so that it is easy to charge, as if the ring didn’t make it consummate already.
Samsung has made no compromises in ensuring the Galaxy Ring conveys high-tech achievement and unparalleled style. The ring comes in traditional shades of black, silver and gold, and in nine sizes. This attention to detail indicates that Samsung is serious about tech wearables blending fashion and function.
Battery life is suitably well hidden; however, Samsung has suggested that the batteries in the Galaxy Ring will be good for extremely long runtimes. Ring size affects battery size, with bigger cells in larger rings, so you can be sure that the Galaxy Ring you pick will be ready to handle your day-to-day without needing to be constantly recharged.
The tech world awaits the next Samsung Unpacked event this summer. Rumors have been swirling for months about a possible unveiling of the coveted Galaxy Ring. According to various reports and speculations, no. For some time, Samsung has been teasing the release of new flagship products and the next Unpacked conference seems to be the ideal time to take the wraps off the Galaxy Ring. So, on 10 July, Samsung is poised to host its next Unpacked conference in Paris.
At the cusp of a new wave of wearables, the Samsung Galaxy Ring is so much more than a smart gadget. The Galaxy Ring is a badge. It’s a statement of where we have been, and where we are going. By solving the problem of charging, timeless fashion design, and Samsung’s suite of killer features, the Galaxy Ring is poised to charm its way on to the fingers of the style-conscious, the tech-centric, and wherever in-between.
Samsung’s Galaxy Ring isn’t just the latest foray into the smart ring market. It is proof-positive that there is a future in which technology can improve our lives, but will do so with panache and poise. The Galaxy Ring’s looming release has one thing in common with the technology within it. The smart ring is so much more than a gadget. It is a style statement, a tech beast and a glimpse of things to come. The fractal essence that is Samsung continues to astonish and astound with the Galaxy Ring. In 2015, the future of wearable devices will, as it should, be Samsung.
