Smart rings, tiny fitness trackers that fit on your finger instead of your wrist, are super trendy right now, and arguably the best one of the lot is on offer in the Black Friday deals, in both the US and the UK.

In the US, the Samsung Galaxy Ring is available for $279.99 (down from $399.99) at Amazon in its Black, Gold and Silver colors, an impressive 30% saving.

US deal: Save 30% ($120) on the Samsung Galaxy Ring. Some smart rings like Oura require additional subscriptions, which lowers the value over time, but the Galaxy Ring is a subscription-free fitness tracker that's discreet, comfortable to wear at night, offers detailed metrics, and automatically records movement.

UK deal: Save £100 on the Samsung Galaxy Ring in the UK in Black, Silver and Gold colors. It offers AI-powered sleep advice after learning your sleep style, stress metrics, heart rate, fitness tracking, a portable clamshell-style charger, energy score and women's health tracking. We gave it 4.5 stars in our review.

The reason the Samsung Galaxy Ring is top of our best smart rings buying guide is because it's a better long-term value prospect than the Oura Ring 4, even though the Oura Ring 4 has more features, because the Samsung Galaxy Ring doesn't require a monthly subscription.

That means if you're looking to choose between the two best smart rings, any discount widens this gap! However, if you like the idea of the Oura, we've got some of the best Oura Ring deals on the internet below.

A similar 29% ($100) saving on the Oura Ring 4 in Black. It's the same basic ring inside as the Gold version (well, it's anything but basic, but you know), but the finish is different. The Ring also packs automatic workout detection, an AI-powered chatbot with access to all your health information, women's cycle tracking, and even a Symptom Radar feature that predicts when you're getting sick.
