Many people use a fitness tracker or a smartwatch to keep tabs on their health and fitness metrics. But smart rings are rapidly becoming viable alternatives, and they don’t take up a spot on your wrist. There are a growing number of smart ring options to choose from, but for those in the Samsung ecosystem, the Galaxy Ring is the obvious option. The Galaxy Ring normally sells for around $400, but we’ve found savings from many retailers and carriers to make it more affordable.
Not many retailers offer discounts on this unassuming Samsung device at the moment, but there are still a few places where you can snag one for less if you have a device to trade in. With nearly five years of experience as a CNET deals writer, Adrian Marlow has used that expertise to round up some of the best (and only) Galaxy Ring offers available right now. We’ll continue to update this page as offers come and go, so be sure to check back often for the latest batch of deals.
The Galaxy Ring keeps track of your sleep, energy and activity. It’s IP68-rated water resistant, so you can keep it on while swimming, but it shouldn’t be used for high-pressure water activities like diving. The battery can last up to seven days on a single charge, but that varies depending on size and usage. Just 30 minutes should get you to a charge of 40%. It’s worth noting that the Galaxy Ring is only compatible with Android phones that can install the Samsung Health app.

Samsung has a $100 direct discount on the Galaxy Ring right now, bringing it down to $300. But if you are a student or teacher, government employee, in the military or a veteran, a first responder or fall into a few select other categories, you may be eligible to take advantage of more savings. You can also save up to $150 when trading in an old device.
Remember that you can order a free sizing kit from Samsung to ensure your new Galaxy Ring fits correctly.
You can purchase the Samsung Galaxy Ring at Best Buy at $100 off, bringing the starting price to $300. And if you have a similar device from Fitbit, Apple, Garmin, Samsung, Google or select other brands, you may score some trade-in savings.
Trade-in values vary greatly. Some items score as little as $5, while others get as much as $300. The largest value goes to newer Apple devices. That means you could score your Samsung Galaxy Ring for as little as $100 with an eligible trade-in.
Amazon is offering the same $100 off as other retailers, which is a rare discount. We don’t expect this deal to last for long, though. Amazon is also offering a Galaxy Ring sizing kit for $10, and you’ll get a $10 credit toward the ring when you order it, making the kit free.
AT&T has the Samsung Galaxy Ring available, but it isn’t offering any discounts at the moment. However, you can order a free sizing kit or try on samples directly at select AT&T stores in person. Check the AT&T website to find participating locations in your area.
Walmart is offering many sizes and colors for just $300, with size 11 even cheaper at just $270. Just keep in mind only select sizes are discounted. If your size is not discounted, you’re better off buying from Amazon, Samsung or Best Buy.
