Prime Day Deal: Samsung Galaxy Ring Drops to Record Low Price With New 30% Discount

The silver Samsung Galaxy Ring is down by $115 on Amazon for a limited time only.

There’s nothing more important than your health. We might be into the second half of 2025, but it’s never too late to make this the year that you focus on your fitness, and the Samsung Galaxy Ring is a brilliant option for those who would rather not wear a smartwatch. Usually sold for around $400, Amazon’s Prime Day sale has slashed the price by as much as $115.

All of that means that Amazon Prime members can now pick up a shiny new Galaxy Ring from just $285. Multiple colors and sizes are available at that price, with others seeing $100 in savings. Just keep in mind that these kinds of deals don’t tend to last for long, so ordering soon is definitely the way to go. Not a Prime member? Best Buy is currently offering a $100 discount.

It’s also important to note that these prices constantly fluctuate, so keep that in mind when you’re planning to make your purchase. That said, this is close to the lowest price we’ve seen the Samsung Galaxy Ring sell for, so there’s little reason to delay your order.

Whether you’re looking to track your sleep for a better understanding of your rest and recovery, or you’re a fitness fiend who uses every metric to get the best out of themselves, a smart ring can be huge for tracking important data.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

The Samsung Galaxy Ring doesn’t require any subscriptions but that doesn’t mean you won’t benefit from the features we’ve come to expect from these kinds of wearables. There’s support for sleep tracking, fitness monitoring and more, and you’ll be able to wear your ring for up to seven days before you need to charge it again.

Other features worth noting include cycle tracking capabilities, the ability to track your heart rate, and more via a device that just slips onto your finger.

Why this deal matters

The Samsung Galaxy Ring isn’t a cheap bit of tech but the benefits can be massive, especially if you want to keep an eye on your health throughout the day and night without wearing something too flashy. A silver ring like this can blend in nicely with any look when going out and then connects to the Samsung Health App to provide details on your overall wellness. $400 is a lot to ask but considering it’s down by as much as $115, it’s a bit more affordable today.
