Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is set for July 10 at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
The company is expected to unveil several new products, including the Galaxy Z Flip6, Galaxy Z Fold6, Galaxy Watch7, Galaxy Watch Ultra, Galaxy Buds3 series, and the health-tracking Galaxy Ring.
Galaxy Ring: Leaked Pricing
The Galaxy Ring has been the subject of numerous leaks in recent months. Mosaic promo images leaked last month confirmed its impending debut.
FCC certification revealed details about different ring sizes and corresponding battery capacities.
Information about the charging case also surfaced in a leak.
Code strings in the Samsung Find app suggested users would be able to locate a lost Galaxy Ring using the app.
A new report from WinFuture has now revealed the alleged European pricing for the Galaxy Ring.
According to the report, the device may be priced at €449 in France. This is significantly higher than the previously speculated starting price of $300.
For context, the Oura Ring, a popular health tracking ring, starts at $299 in the US and €399 in Europe.
If the leaked pricing is accurate, the Galaxy Ring could launch in the US with a price tag between $350 and $450.
The higher price point could be due to Samsung potentially not charging a subscription fee, at least for the first year.
In contrast, Oura Ring charges an additional $70 per year for its subscription service.
However, Samsung has hinted that some Samsung Health and Galaxy AI features may be available through a subscription model in the future.
This pricing leak, if true, positions the Galaxy Ring as a premium offering in the smart ring market.
It remains to be seen how consumers will respond to this pricing strategy and what additional features Samsung might offer to justify the cost.
