Battery life is an important aspect of any fitness tracker. You can't expect the user to charge their fitness tracker every other like a smartphone, which would be quite a hassle.

You will be glad to know that Samsung has done a fantastic job in this aspect. It can apparently last as much as a week on a single charge. However, if you buy a smaller size of the Galaxy Ring, the battery inside will also be smaller, so the duration will be slightly lower.
