• Samsung USA has begun accepting trade-ins for devices for a $100 discount on the Galaxy Ring, bringing its price down to $300.
• To get the discount, you can trade in good-condition smart rings from companies like Amazfit, Oura, Ringconn, Evie, and Ultrahuman.
• You can also trade in any smartwatch in any condition for the discount.

The Samsung Galaxy Ring generated a lot of hype before its launch, but it kind of fizzled out once users realized that the device is essentially a fitness tracker. While the Galaxy Ring did not have a subscription attached to it, it did have a decently high $400 price tag, making it a harder sell for many people, especially if they already have a fitness tracking device. This could now change, as Samsung has begun accepting trade-ins for devices against a new Galaxy Ring purchase, helping bring the price down to make it a good purchase.

As spotted by Sammobile, Samsung is now accepting smartwatches and smart rings from other brands as trade-ins in the US and offering a flat $100 discount on the Galaxy Ring for them.
