Samsung Galaxy Ring 2: Release Delayed, But Big Battery & AI Upgrades Expected
Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 Development in Early Stages, Launch Likely Delayed
Samsung was initially expected to unveil the Galaxy Ring 2 alongside its flagship Galaxy S25 series during the Galaxy Unpacked event in January. However, that did not happen, and now it seems fans will have to wait even longer. According to a new report, development on the next-generation Galaxy Ring has only just begun, indicating a delayed launch timeline.
When Will Samsung Galaxy Ring 2 Launch?
According to Dutch tech site GalaxyClub, the Galaxy Ring 2 is still in its early stages of development. This makes a 2025 release increasingly unlikely. Instead, the smart ring may debut around—or after—the anticipated launch of the Galaxy S26 series, likely in early 2026 at the next Galaxy Unpacked event.
What to Expect from the Galaxy Ring 2
Samsung appears focused on refining usability and boosting performance in the Galaxy Ring 2. While significant design changes aren’t expected due to the compact nature of smart rings, subtle upgrades could still make a meaningful difference.
Key enhancements may include:
- Sleeker, lighter design for better comfort and wearability
- Improved health and fitness tracking sensors
- More efficient battery usage, potentially lasting over 7 days on a single charge
- AI-powered features for smarter health insights
Although the overall look may remain similar, Samsung could optimize the form factor, slim down the design, or even boost the ring’s energy efficiency with a more powerful battery.
Battery & AI: The Big Upgrades
Earlier leaks suggest the Galaxy Ring 2 may offer significantly improved battery life compared to the current model, which weighs 2.3g and measures 7.0mm in size. It’s also expected to integrate more advanced health sensors and AI functionalities, positioning it as a serious contender in the growing smart ring market.
