Buyer Beware: The Samsung Galaxy Ring Scratches Easily
As the holiday season comes to a close, many of you may have received the Samsung Galaxy Ring as a gift or picked one up for yourself. While it’s been touted as an innovative and convenient way to track wellness, there’s a catch – the ring scratches easily.
In fact, numerous reports online suggest that the device is prone to damage, leaving unsightly marks on its surface. This begs the question: what happens when you go to trade in your Galaxy Ring for an upgrade or a newer model? Will these scratches affect its value?
We reached out to Samsung directly to ask about their stance on scratched devices and potential trade-ins. While we’re still waiting to hear back, it’s worth noting that the company has explicitly stated that devices should have “no breaks, cracks, or other defects beyond normal wear and tear.” Here’s hoping they’ll be more lenient when it comes to minor scratches.
In the meantime, it appears that Amazon shoppers are already taking precautions. Many online reviewers are suggesting that a silicone cover would greatly mitigate this issue. While it may add bulk to the chunky ring, it seems like a worthwhile investment for those who don’t want to risk damaging their device’s appearance.
If you’re considering purchasing the Galaxy Ring but have concerns about its durability, you might want to consider waiting until we hear back from Samsung on their stance regarding scratched devices.
