  • Hey, I think we’re done here.

  • This was a short teaser for the Galaxy Ring, and I don’t feel like I learned much about it other than the fact that it exists and will use Samsung Health. The promotion has now officially ended, and you can head over to Engadget.com to check out the hands-on for detailed impressions of the Galaxy S24, S24 Plus, and S24 Ultra if you haven’t already. We haven’t had a chance to see the Galaxy Ring in person yet, and we don’t expect to experience it for ourselves in the near future. But follow us and we will update you with all the news we can find about this device and others.

  • Samsung comes and shows off the Galaxy Ring and then ends the broadcast like the Tuxedo Mask meme?

  • I must say that we are watching a video of the ring, which looks much more elegant than the Oura. It’s orbiting in space, surrounded by particles in this video. There’s not much to learn about it. The screen is back to show the Galaxy S24 Ultra and the Galaxy Watch in use by different people. Blackard is back and thanks us for being part of Unpacked.

  • “By leveraging our BioActive sensor, Samsung Sleep Apnea will monitor relative blood oxygen levels” during sleep. Samsung Health will also get a medication tracking feature to help you manage medications and supplements, while providing insights into potential interactions. Apple has basically the same thing

  • He starts with sleep, and talks about how the Samsung Health app uses information from Galaxy devices to help provide insights into your sleep. Later this year, Samsung Health and Galaxy AI will launch heart rate alerts while you sleep to alert you about possible sleep apnea and other anomalies.

  • “We are constantly working to innovate the Samsung Health Platform,” says Wiggins. He talks about the company’s partnerships with many players in the healthcare field. “With Galaxy AI, we are poised to usher in a whole new era of digital health,” he said.

  • Making small healthy choices can lead to “life-changing progress.” The video ends with the two characters staring at the eclipse…which is in the shape of a ring. Dr. Matthew Wiggins, from the company’s digital health division, takes the stage.

  • Sherlyn, I feel like this teaser is aimed directly at you. Use smart devices to find out how long you can sing karaoke.

  • The runner is now talking about his sleep stages and how this information helps improve his overall health. This looks like a demo of Samsung Health… but it’s also a teaser for something to come…
