Do you have big fingers? Are you feeling left out of the smart ring revolution? The good news is that Samsung is likely working on making its Galaxy Ring available in more sizes to accommodate more people. Right now, the smart ring is limited to size 13. Soon, Samsung could offer sizes 14 and 15, putting it on par with other best-selling smart rings in the marketplace—the ones it’s directly competing with.
The leak comes from deep in the internet and has not been confirmed by Samsung. But 91Mobiles and Max Jambor have been on point with leaks, so we’re taking their word on this one for now. The details of the sizing come from a leaked user guide that lists nine model numbers for the Galaxy Ring. Each smart ring size has a model number, and now there’s a “14” and a “15” available alongside all the rest. While no additional details are offered, the model numbers follow the standard naming convention, which is why it’s so believable.
The new sizes will likely debut in January 2025. No specific date has been offered, but this may be a minor “one more thing” that Samsung will roll out at its Galaxy Unpacked event, which is expected next month. I can see Samsung rolling out the red carpet for the Galaxy S25, then lauding itself for inventing the smart ring and announcing that it has so much confidence in its product that it’s launching it in two more sizes.
While the larger ring sizes will help attract an additional subset of users, they will also help legitimize the Galaxy Ring against the rest of the competition. The Oura Ring, one of the other very popular smart rings that have gained traction over the past few years, is already offered in varying sizes, up to a size 15. It’s made such a name for itself that it helped convince health insurance companies to cover the cost as a health aid.
You can also buy the Galaxy Ring with your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) if you have one. Samsung advertises the ability on its online store. It can now be considered alongside all those other third parties by offering more sizes. Samsung is also probably betting that you’ll want a tracking accessory that matches the brand of your smartphone since sticking with the Galaxy Ring makes sense if you already utilize Samsung Health.
