The Galaxy Ring helps keep track of your sleep, energy and activity. The ring is IP68-rated water resistant, so you can keep it on while swimming, but it shouldn’t be used for high-pressure water activities or diving. The battery can last up to seven days on a single charge, but that varies by both size and usage. Just 30 minutes should get you to a charge of 40%.
