Galaxy Ring is not just for Samsung fans, as it works with other Android phones, too

Samsung recently launched its first-ever smart ring, the Galaxy Ring, which is now available for pre-order and will hit stores on July 24. Initially, it was thought that the Galaxy Ring would only work with Galaxy phones, but it turns out that is not the case.

The Galaxy Ring can work with non-Samsung Android phones, but you'll miss out on some features

YouTuber M. Brandon Lee posted a video on X showing the Galaxy Ring in action on a Nothing Phone (2). To get it working on a non-Samsung phone, you will need to download the Galaxy Wearable app or Samsung Health and sign in with a Samsung account.

There are some reviews out there claiming that the Samsung Galaxy Ring only works on a Samsung device, therefore it doesn’t work on other Android devices.

This is untrue.
