Back when it was announced in July 2024, the Oura Ring 3 was the smart ring to beat. Oura’s now on the Oura Ring 5 … So, what’s the deal with a Samsung Galaxy Ring 2? While we’re unlikely to see one at Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event (probably) happening at the end of July, we now have official confirmation from Samsung that a Galaxy Ring 2 is under active development. Here’s everything we know so far about the Samsung Galaxy Ring 2. Latest Videos From Watch full video here: Galaxy Ring 2 = confirmed (Image credit: Tom’s Guide) In a recent Forbes report, Samsung’s head of digital health, Dr. Hon Pak, confirmed that a next-generation Galaxy Ring 2 is under development, with Samsung engineers focused on improving sensor performance and battery life. The current-generation Samsung Galaxy Ring lasts roughly six to seven days per charge, which is decent but a little behind the modern competition. The Oura Ring 5, for instance, is rated for up to nine days per charge. The entry-level Ringconn Gen 2 Air , meanwhile, lasts up to ten days per charge. You may like Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 could boast longer battery life but you won’t get one until 2027 Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 rumors — here’s everything we expect from Samsung’s next-gen rugged smartwatch Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 rumors — everything we’ve heard so far Love for iOS? (Image credit: Tom’s Guide) One of the most surprising takeaways from the Forbes report is the possibility that the Galaxy Ring 2 will work with iPhones. The current-Gen Galaxy Ring is Android-only and requires a Samsung Galaxy phone to unlock the entirety of its wellness insights. However, when asked whether the Galaxy Ring 2 will work with iOS, Dr. Pak’s response says little but reveals a lot: “I’m smiling, but I can’t say anything; I think you’ll be very pleased with some of the releases and the upcoming news.” Tom’s Guide: Direct to Your Inbox Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips.

Hmm, that seems pretty promising to me. What’s on your Galaxy Ring 2 wish list? (Image credit: Samsung) We probably won’t see the Galaxy Ring 2 until 2027, but we can dream. So, what’s on your Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 wish list? I, for one, would love to see Samsung add haptic alerts to the ring that could be used as an alarm clock or to warn you of a potential active medical emergency. I’d also like to see Samsung slim down the Galaxy Ring 2 without sacrificing battery performance. Oura managed to shrink its flagship model down by 40% with the latest Oura Ring 5. Samsung would be wise to do the same; otherwise, the Galaxy Ring 2 is going to feel awfully chunky by comparison. Finally, Samsung has confirmed that non-invasive blood glucose monitoring is in the works — it’s a holy grail of sorts for all the wearables manufacturers — though I suspect such a feature is more likely to debut in a Galaxy Watch than a Galaxy Ring. Still, it’s on my Galaxy Ring 2 wish list. Let me know what’s on your Galaxy Ring 2 wishlist in the comments below.
