Samsung’s first foray into the smart ring market, the Galaxy Ring, has been drawing the attention of tech enthusiasts since its launch. Despite Samsung’s initial statements that some of its features would only work with Galaxy phones, tests have shown that this is not entirely true.
How does the Galaxy Ring work on other devices?
The Galaxy Ring has also been observed to work flawlessly with non-Samsung Android phones. Tests with different brand phones such as the Motorola Razr Plus and OnePlus 12 revealed that the device’s basic features as well as its AI-supported functions work.

It has been revealed that the artificial intelligence-based features ‘Energy Score’ and ‘Health Tips’, which Samsung particularly emphasizes, can also be used on devices other than Galaxy phones. This significantly expands the area of use and potential user base of the Galaxy Ring. In fact, the device thus transcends its own ecosystem.
However, it should be noted that the Galaxy Ring has some advantages when used with Samsung phones. For example, it is stated that data synchronization occurs more frequently and much faster on Galaxy phones. However, this difference is not at a level that will significantly affect the overall performance of the device.
The Samsung Galaxy Ring stands out as an important option not only within the Galaxy ecosystem but also in the general Android market. However, the fact that the device is not widely known to work on other Android phones may also be affecting its sales figures.
