The Short Version
ETNews reports Samsung pushed the Galaxy Ring 2 launch from 2026 to early 2027 or later, targeting 9 to 10 days of battery life, a slimmer build, and better health sensors.
Samsung is using the Galaxy Ring 2 as a proving ground for silicon carbon batteries before trusting them in flagship phones. The delay to early 2027 buys time to solve the original ring's swelling battery problem while chasing 9 to 10 days of runtime. Non-invasive blood glucose tracking is the target, and Samsung needs wearables to crack it before Apple does.
