For years now people who want to keep tabs on their health, fitness and sleep stats have bought a smartwatch to do it. But not everyone likes to wear a watch and others prefer to wear a traditional watch instead. For those people, the smart rings now offer an alternative and there is a growing collection of options for you to choose from. The Samsung Galaxy Ring is one example, and you can put one on your finger right now for just $250. Samsung will give you up to $250 in instant trade-in credit when you hand over your old ring or smartwatch, slashing the price you pay considerably. And you can technically pay $100 less, too.
That’s because Samsung will also give you a $100 credit towards a new Galaxy phone, smarywatch or set of earbuds when you buy a Galaxy Ring — arguably giving you another $100 off your smart ring if you were already planning on buying more Samsung gear. This is part of a bigger week of Samsung deals so be sure to check those out if a smart ring isn’t on your shopping list.
