# Samsung Galaxy Watch: Price, Availability & Status (2026)

Samsung Galaxy Watch (from ~$300) has cleared ECG, AFib, and sleep-apnea detection; blood pressure is cleared abroad but NOT in the US. The honest status.

## Price

- **$300** (actual-sale-price, one-time; as of 2024-07-10) · [Samsung (Galaxy Watch 7)](https://www.samsung.com/us/watches/galaxy-watch7/) · 2024-07-10

The Galaxy Watch 7 anchors at about $300 (41mm, Bluetooth); the Watch Ultra is pricier, and the adjacent Galaxy Ring is a separate biometric device. It is a hardware purchase with no subscription.

## Availability

_Status: shipping-now_

The Samsung Galaxy Watch is shipping and consumer-available (Galaxy Watch 7, Watch Ultra, and the Galaxy Ring, all July 2024). It is a hardware purchase with no subscription.

## Status

The Samsung Galaxy Watch is a biometric-primary smartwatch whose BioActive sensor combines optical heart rate, electrical ECG, and bioimpedance. Its FDA-cleared features (held by the Samsung Health Monitor app) include ECG (2021), AFib detection (2023), and sleep-apnea detection (De Novo, February 2024), with no subscription. A within-entity verified-vs-claimed exemplar: Samsung's blood-pressure feature is cleared in Korea and several other markets but NOT in the US, where it remains wellness-grade; DEPLOY surfaces that market-specific clearance variance rather than implying a US clearance. The adjacent Galaxy Ring is a separate biometric form factor with no ECG and no FDA-cleared features.
