One of our biggest fears with the Samsung Galaxy Ring was the potential for a subscription service that would balloon the costs of owning its first smart ring. At $399, the Galaxy Ring is not a cheap device, but thankfully, you don’t have to pay a monthly fee to access all of its features.
Compare this to Oura. The company’s Oura Ring 3 requires a monthly $5.99 subscription to unlock the vast majority of features, making that $299 initial price tag considerably steeper the longer you own one.
