The rollout allows the wearable device to track signs of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea in users aged 22 and older. By monitoring blood oxygen levels and movement patterns during sleep sessions, the ring provides a clinical-grade screening tool for those who may otherwise remain undiagnosed. This integration shifts the Galaxy Ring from a general fitness tracker toward a more specialized medical monitoring device, mirroring the functionality found in Samsung’s flagship smartwatch series.
