You Can Use Galaxy Ring With Non Samsung Phones Too

Initial impressions suggested that Samsung’s Galaxy Ring would function optimally only with the company’s own Galaxy smartphones. While pairing the ring with non-Galaxy Android phones and utilizing features through the Samsung Health app was possible, key functionalities like Galaxy AI and the Energy Score seemed to be exclusive to Galaxy phone users.

However, GSMArena’s findings revealed a pleasant surprise: the Galaxy Ring, including its advanced features like Galaxy AI and Energy Score, operates seamlessly with non-Galaxy Android devices. They successfully tested the ring’s full functionality with an Honor Magic 6 Pro, debunking the initial assumption of limited compatibility.

The Galaxy Ring’s sophisticated sleep tracking, powered by Galaxy AI, has proven to be remarkably accurate, even identifying a restless night caused by one too many glasses of wine. This level of insight demonstrates the ring’s ability to provide valuable health data regardless of the user’s smartphone preference.

For those eager to experience the Galaxy Ring’s full potential on non-Galaxy Android devices, the process is straightforward. Simply download and install Samsung Health and the Samsung Wearable app, both readily available on the Google Play Store. This easy setup allows a wider range of Android users to benefit from the ring’s comprehensive health and wellness features.

Galaxy Ring was launched alongside Samsung’s new foldables in July, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. It costs $400, which is higher than some of its competitors such as the Oura Ring series.
