The Samsung Galaxy Ring Is Down to $266 This Prime Day, Beating Its Previous Record Low

Amazon slashed the Samsung Galaxy Ring by a massive $134 this October Prime Day.

Good health is precious, and there’s no time like the present to start prioritizing wellness. If you want a strong finish to this year and want to measure your metrics, then the Samsung Galaxy Ring is a great alternative to smartwatches. This ring typically costs $400, but it’s now a massive $134 off this Amazon Prime Day.

Amazon Prime members can grab this fitness ring for a record-low price of $266 right now. This beats its previous low by $21. Alternatively, if you’re not a Prime member, Best Buy has discounted the Galaxy Ring by $120. Regardless of which retailer you choose, acting fast is advised.

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, the ability to track your heart rate and more — impressive for 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 $134, it’s a bit more affordable today.
