November 2025 Special Report: Are you worried about your parents' health, but their smartwatch is just gathering dust in a drawer? This Black Friday season, the subscription-free 'Samsung Galaxy Ring' and the precision-engineered 'Oura Ring 4' are changing the landscape of senior healthcare. Discover the most reliable way to monitor sleep apnea and heart rate just by wearing a ring.
When you ask, "Mom, are you using the smartwatch I bought you last month?" nine times out of ten, the answer is the same: "Oh, it's a hassle to charge every day, and it's too heavy to wear while sleeping, so I just took it off."
The problem is that the 'golden time' for cardiovascular diseases like myocardial infarction or stroke often occurs at dawn while we are asleep. Who is guarding your parents' hearts while they sleep? For children living far away, the anxiety only grows.

Not the Wrist, but the Finger: The Paradigm Shift in Healthcare
As of November 2025, the protagonist of the healthcare market is no longer the heavy watch. It is the 'Smart Ring'. A ring feels natural even when worn 24 hours a day, and a single charge lasts for a week (7 days). The fact that there is no need to remove it even when showering or washing dishes is garnering an explosive response from the senior demographic.
In particular, the 'Samsung Galaxy Ring', which expanded its size lineup this past January and included a Sleep Environment Report feature, has established itself as an essential gift for parents. It even analyzes how the room's temperature and humidity affect sleep, acting not just as a health recorder but as a 'Deep Sleep Coordinator'.
๐ก Galaxy Ring vs. Oura Ring 4: Which Should You Buy?
- Samsung Galaxy Ring: Highly recommended if using a Galaxy phone. The biggest advantage is that the monthly subscription fee is $0. It is optimized for the senior lifestyle.
- Oura Ring 4: Recommended if you are an iPhone user or want athlete-level ultra-precision data. However, you must consider that there is a monthly subscription fee of $5.99 in addition to the device cost.

From Sleep Apnea to Fall Detection, the Evolution of AI Assistants
The true value of a smart ring is revealed 'when asleep'. The 2025 models detect signs of Sleep Apnea early through FDA-authorized algorithms. For a father who snores heavily or a mother who occasionally gasps for air while sleeping, there is no better gift.
Furthermore, Samsung Health's 'Mindfulness Tracker' monitors parents' stress levels and breathing status in real-time. We are living in an era where, if abnormal signs are detected, an alert can be sent to a child via a connected smartphone. This is the 'Connected Care' of 2025.

Now Is the Opportunity to Gift Health at the Lowest Price
Until now, the only downside of smart rings was the high price. However, the situation has changed starting with Black Friday in November 2025. Both Samsung and Oura are implementing aggressive pricing policies to capture the year-end market. It is an opportunity to hire a '24-hour health bodyguard' for your parents at a much more reasonable price than at the initial launch.
"The best healthcare device is not the one with the most functions, but the one the user forgets they are even wearing."
Stop nagging your parents to "exercise" or "go to bed early." Instead, simply place a ring on their finger. The data sent by the smart ring will change your parents' lifestyle habits more surely than a hundred words.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. How do I choose the smart ring size?
You must never order your usual ring size. It is essential to first receive the 'Sizing Kit' provided by the manufacturer (Samsung, Oura, etc.), wear it for at least 24 hours, and make a decision considering finger swelling.
Q. Can I use the Galaxy Ring with an iPhone?
Unfortunately, the Galaxy Ring is currently optimized for Android smartphones, specifically the Galaxy ecosystem. If you are an iPhone user, we recommend brands like Oura Ring 4 or RingConn.
Q. Will it break if I wear it while showering or washing dishes?
No, most of the latest 2025 smart rings support a 10ATM (water-resistant up to 100m) rating. You can wear them with confidence while showering, washing dishes, and even in the swimming pool.
