Galaxy Ring swelling, one finger away from disaster!

Missing your plane by a finger££££

After a few replies, jokes and advice from a few followers (even Samsung UK responded), the user publishes an update: the airline refused the traveler (fortunately), who was sent to the emergency room, which managed to remove the ring, without any after-effects for the patient's health. He declares in conclusion that he will never wear a connected ring again. We understand…
