Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the ring. The battery life is as expected and the health tracking is similar to the watch counterpart. I purchase this ring so that I wouldn't have to wear the big and heavy Watch 7 Ultra to track my sleep. During the day I'll wear the watch and take the ring off since I'm not a fan of wearing rings. The build quality is also nice!
I have been using the ring for about a month now and it is a phenomenal product. So much so I brought one for my wife as well and she really likes it too! It is a great use for times when I have to charge my watch and when I can't wear my watch to continue to track everything. Really enjoying the product.
The ring is surprisingly very accurate and I tend to track a lot more activity with it than I do with my watch 7. I've had all of the watches that have come out over the years and this rain tracks better and is way more accurate than any of them put together. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because it is so ugly, it does not look nice at all on my finger. I wear mine on my pointer finger and I got the silver color but I don't think I would like it in any color to be honest. I hope they can do something about it's bulking this in the future.
Ordering the sizing kit should be standard not opt

Verified Purchase:Yes
There should be a hard stop for ordering the ring if you havent ordered the sizing kit. The ring runs 1 or even 2 sizes too tight. I ended up returning and paying restocking fee on the item because I clicked "I know my ring size". Other than that issue the product works as advertised.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us, Ahmad. We appreciate your input as we strive to make ongoing updates and improvements. We noticed that you contacted us regarding the Galaxy Ring. Since people have different ring sizes, what fits one person may not fit another. Fortunately, you can order a Sizing Kit for the Galaxy Ring to accurately determine the right ring size for your finger before making a purchase. The Galaxy Ring is available in sizes 5 through 13, but your usual size may not be the best fit due to the sensors inside. That's why we offer a Galaxy Ring Sizing Kit that contains samples of all available sizes. We highly recommend using the sizing kit to determine your Galaxy Ring size before making a purchase. We're pleased to hear that, aside from sizing, the Ring has performed as expected for you. If you have any further concerns or questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support. - Kelvin smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus
Switching from a Gear S3 to the ring, the ring needs to learn quicker - it does not do well on workout/exercise auto detect. The software update crashed the ring requiring a reset/restart. Traveling international the food search is limited compared to domestic. I have faith these will be fixed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The ring works as expected. Put it on and forget about it. Use the Samsung wearable or health app to monitor readings. Only issue is the ring box used to charge the ring. It can only charge the ring up to its own power level. If the case is at 75% it can only charge the ring to 75%. This is annoying.
Good start, more functionality required for asking price
