Samsung Galaxy Ring is growing to accommodate all sizes of users

[phillynews215]

• Samsung is expected to add two new sizing options to let the Galaxy Ring support larger fingers.
• The wearable has already been available in nine different sizes.
• International availability continues to improve, with pre-registration recently opening in Mexico.

Mobile devices are far from one-size-fits-all; just look at the Google Pixel family, and how it’s been growing to offer new size and feature options. That’s doubly true for wearables, and with smartwatches we expect a product to launch with two or even three different sizes available. That kind of variability is maybe most pronounced when it comes to smart rings, and this year’s Samsung Galaxy Ring arrived in nine distinct sizes. But even that may not have been enough, and a new rumor suggests that even more could be in the works.

With smartphones, size is largely about preference, and with smartwatches, an adjustable strap can do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to accommodating different users. But a smart ring just isn’t going to offer that kind of flexibility, and the best a manufacturer can do is make it available in as many different sizes as shoppers demand. Samsung sells the Galaxy Ring in sizes 5 through 13, and even offers a sizing kit so prospective buyers can find just the right fit for them.
