Smart rings are on track to be the latest techwear trend of 2024, and speculation around what we can expect from Samsung's upcoming Galaxy ring has us super excited. Wondering what is a smart ring? It's a wearable device, shaped like a ring, which is worn on your finger – a very simple concept with great potential (at least we think so) if the predicted features are anything to go on. 

Samsung revealed a first look at its upcoming Galaxy Ring during the latest Samsung Unpacked event in February, and kept the details to a minimum, given that the focus and star of the show was the Samsung Galaxy S24 series. We got a glimpse at what this Galaxy ring could look like, although reports suggest that by the time we actually see it in stores, the design might be completely different as nothing is finalised yet.
