• Samsung's Galaxy Ring wearable seems to be compatible with Android phones other than the Galaxy series after Youtuber M Brandon Lee tested out the device by connecting it to his Nothing Phone.
• The company has imposed limits on certain features like Double Pinch gestures, Find My Ring, Galaxy AI, and Energy Score, which will only be available on Galaxy Z and S phones.
• Regular Android users can set up the Ring on their phones from the Galaxy Wearable app to use the heart rate monitor, workout tracker, step counter, and sleep tracker.
• Samsung is reportedly working on adding support for the Galaxy Ring on iOS. The smart ring starts from $399 and is available in sizes ranging from 5 to 13 inches.

Samsung announced its new wearable, the Galaxy Ring, alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 smartphones in Paris earlier this month. The smart ring offering some excellent features was first believed to be only compatible with Samsung phones but turns out that it works fine with any Android phone.

Samsung Galaxy Ring Works With Other Android Phones Under Limited Capacity

The company's press release for the wearable did not mention this but the wording was changed after tech Youtuber M Brandon Lee seemed to have connected his Galaxy Ring review unit to a Nothing Phone.

In an X post, Lee argued that reviews claiming that the Galaxy Ring only works with a Samsung phone are untrue as the wearable works fine on any Android phone that has the Galaxy Wearable app installed. He says users can connect the ring to their non-Samsung Galaxy phones via the app and take it through the setting up process.

Samsung never explicitly said the Galaxy Ring would not be compatible with other Android phones. However, the company highlighted during the announcement that some features, such as the Double Pinch gestures, Energy Score, Galaxy AI, and Find My Ring, will be exclusive to Galaxy series smartphones.
