Apple Abandons Smart Ring Plans as Samsung Leads Market

Samsung remains the only major tech brand with a smart ring, as Apple decides to delay its entry into the segment.

  • Samsung is currently the sole major tech company offering a smart ring, having released its own version earlier this year.
  • Apple has decided to postpone its plans for a smart ring, despite previously filing patents and exploring the technology.
  • Smart rings, a burgeoning segment, function similarly to smartwatches but offer a more discreet and lightweight design.
  • Samsung's early entry into the smart ring market may allow it to capitalize on a period of exclusivity among tech giants.
  • While dedicated companies continue to offer smart rings, Samsung's involvement marks a significant milestone in the segment's growth.
