The Galaxy Ring was arguably the most impressive product at the Galaxy Unpacked event - it's the result of Samsung's years of research and development into health and fitness tracking.
The Galaxy Ring is made from high-quality titanium, providing many features to support human health: in addition to measuring heart rate, electrocardiogram and nighttime movement, the product also supports tracking women's menstrual cycles. It is known that Samsung has cooperated with Natural Cycles to expand this function. Thus, Samsung's smart ring is almost like a smart watch today.
The iFixit team recently took apart the Galaxy Ring and confirmed that if the device is damaged, it cannot be repaired. Similar to the Oura Ring, the Galaxy Ring's battery cannot be accessed without destroying it. And like the Galaxy Buds3, the Galaxy Ring is also a disposable tech accessory because it is not designed to last more than 2 years.
The Galaxy Ring is known to have a lithium battery that will lose its energy storage capacity after about 400 charge cycles. Therefore, it is no coincidence that Oura Ring - a product similar to the Galaxy Ring - excludes the battery from the one-year warranty.
iFixxit also collaborated with Lumafield - a company specializing in CT scanning devices to come to the conclusion: the lithium polymer battery and sensors, induction coils to charge the battery inside the ring are fixed to the inside of the ring so they cannot be replaced or repaired.
The Samsung Galaxy Ring comes in three colors: black, silver, and gold, and comes in nine sizes: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 in the US. The ring has a concave design with edges tapering toward the middle. All health sensors, batteries, and charging ports are inside, hidden under a layer of epoxy resin.
Samsung isn't the only company releasing tech products that can't be repaired. Google previously confirmed that the Pixel Watch3 is an unfixable smartwatch.
