Samsung Galaxy Ring 2: A sneak peek at what’s coming next
Launched in July 2024, the Samsung Galaxy Ring marked the company’s first step into the wearable ring market. The device gained attention for its health-focused features and innovative design. Now, a new report suggests that Samsung is already working on a successor, the Galaxy Ring 2.
According to a leaker on Naver, the Galaxy Ring 2 could be released sooner than the original Galaxy Ring. While the exact launch date is still unclear, several improvements have already been revealed.
The first Galaxy Ring offered health-tracking features like heart rate monitoring and sleep tracking. Now, it looks like Samsung plans to take things further with the new version.
The Galaxy Ring 2 is expected to have a longer battery life, which was a common user issue with the original model. Many users said they needed more time between charges.
In addition to better battery life, the new ring is likely to include more features, such as fitness tracking, notifications, and other smart functions. This would make the Galaxy Ring 2 much more versatile than just a health tracker.
Another improvement is the design. The new version is expected to be slimmer and more comfortable, which makes it easier to wear for long periods.
With these updates, the Galaxy Ring 2 could become a stronger competitor in the wearable market. The new version of Galaxy Ring is surely to be a more polished device that could even be an alternative to smartwatches. Stay Tuned for more updates.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 randomly vibrating for no reason, users report. It seems to be a software glitch which has been reporting since late July. Affected Galaxy Watch owners are quite frustrated as unexplained vibrations are much annoying.
Going by the threads posted in community forums, Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra users experiencing unnecessary vibration. Even without any notification, select Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 units have been vibrating weirdly.
Phantom Vibration:
AndroidPolice highlights a study held in 2018, which found roughly 60 percent of the surveyed participants experienced PVS (phantom vibration syndrome). Unlikely, the Watch 7 and Watch Ultra vibrations are caused by a software bug.
Users explain that their smartwatch vibrates once without any screen activity. After a short break, the device again vibrates three times and then stops itself. Samsung has yet to acknowledge the issue and users anticipating a fix as soon as possible.
“I have the same problem with my Watch 7, it is driving me crazy. I’m in contact with Samsung support since 2 weeks, no progress,” wrote user mtanner876 on a Samsung community post via 9to5Google.
Affected Galaxy Watch users have also tried factory resetting which didn’t work. The problem remains unresolved, suggesting a new software fix. We urge Samsung to look into the matter and provide a fix firmware to address the problem.
Temporary fixes that could work:
You can try disabling Health Platform, Google Maps’ “mirroring” option, and WhatsApp. Disable the apps one by one to check which try resolves the issue. I guess these DIY tricks would make things a lot better until Samsung rolls a new OTA.
