When Samsung launched the Galaxy Ring a few months ago, it was only available in a handful of countries, including the USA and some European nations. Recently, the company expanded its availability to Australia, and now, the South Korean firm is ready to launch the Galaxy Ring in India.
Galaxy Ring India launch to happen soon; pre-reservations open
Samsung has started advertising the upcoming launch of the Galaxy Ring in India. The company has started accepting pre-reservations for the Galaxy Ring. You can pre-reserve your Galaxy Ring by paying INR 1,999 ($24), which is a completely refundable amount if you decide not to purchase the device.
It will be available through Amazon.in, Flipkart, Samsung India's website, and select retail stores across India.
Pre-reserving the Galaxy Ring will also get you the Wireless Charger Duo, worth INR 4,999 ($60), for free. You will also be among the first customers in India to get the Galaxy Ring.
Looking at the live timer on Samsung's Galaxy Ring pre-reservation webpage, it appears that the wearable device could go on pre-order tomorrow, but there is no information about its shipping date and pricing. If Samsung opens pre-orders for the Galaxy Ring in India tomorrow, we will also get its pricing details.

Galaxy Ring features
The Galaxy Ring comes in three colors: Titanium Black, Titanium Gold, and Titanium Silver. Its body is made using titanium and has an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. It has water resistance up to 10 ATM.
It features an accelerometer, gyro, heart rate sensor, and skin temperature sensor. It can track your steps, heart rate, blood oxygen levels, sleep (duration, quality, and stages), and some workouts. However, it lacks GPS, so it can't accurately track outdoor workouts.
It can last between 5-7 days, depending on the features you use and your ring size. It comes with a charging case that holds up to 1.5 additional charges.
