Following Circular’s lead
The new Galaxy Ring will supposedly stick with the nine sizes from the original but throw in two extra to go head-to-head with the leading smart rings from manufacturers like Oura. Recently, leaker Max Jambor mentioned that Samsung is unveiling sizes 14 and 15 for the Galaxy Ring in January.
Don’t expect the new Galaxy Ring until late 2025
The Galaxy Ring 2 potentially making its debut at the Galaxy S25 launch event follows Samsung’s usual playbook. The first Galaxy Ring was also teased at a January Unpacked event earlier this year, with a market release in July. A rumor in November hinted at a quicker reveal for the Galaxy Ring 2, but the exact timing was still a mystery at that time.
While we might get a sneak peek at the next Galaxy Ring at the upcoming Unpacked event, don’t expect them to hit store shelves right away. As mentioned, the original Galaxy Ring was revealed in January 2024 but didn’t launch until July. So, it’s likely we’ll see a similar timeline for the Galaxy Ring 2.
