In 2025, several new wearable devices are expected to launch, including the Apple Watch Ultra 2, Apple Watch Series 11, and Samsung Galaxy Ring 2. These releases follow a busy 2024, which saw the introduction of Samsung's first smart ring and the Apple Watch 10. Samsung's Galaxy AR glasses are anticipated to debut in January 2025, featuring AI capabilities and integration with other Galaxy devices. Meanwhile, Apple is expected to refresh its watch lines, with the Apple Watch SE 3 possibly offering a new plastic design and a lower price point. The Galaxy Ring 2 is rumored to be thinner and have improved battery life, while Google is not expected to release new Fitbit models in 2025, following the discontinuation of the Fitbit Sense and Versa lines.
