The Galaxy Ring works fine with non-Galaxy Android phones

When Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Ring it made it seem as though it would work best with its Galaxy smartphones. Yes, you can pair it to your Android phone, install Samsung Health, and get some of the features, but you won't get Galaxy AI and the fancy Energy Score.

But during our review testing of the Galaxy Ring, we've found that everything works with non-Galaxy smartphones, including Galaxy AI and the new Energy Score.

We briefly used the Galaxy Ring with an Honor Magic6 Pro before moving back to the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

The Galaxy Ring's Galaxy AI even caught a poor night's sleep due to an ill-advised night out involving copious amounts of wine.

So if you're interested in using the Galaxy Ring with a non-Galaxy Android smartphone, all you need is Samsung Health and Samsung's Wearable app - both of which are available in the Play Store.

Chicken rings would be more apropos, lol.

My failures, said the one who haven't even used galaxy watches on other brands. That was a good one, sis.
