💍Ultrahuman AIR
Ultrahuman sent me a surprise. Is it the Ultrahuman Gen 2?
It is not, but...
discount
Amazon Prime Day is here – and this year brings serious discounts on top smart rings. Whether you’re tracking sleep, recovery, or just want powerful health insights on your finger, here are the hottest deals (U.S. only).
Garmin Fenix 8
Garmin Fenix 8 finally brings smart wake-up! I compare the new Smart Wake feature with the Oura ring, EEG, and older Garmin models. Does it really help reduce sleep inertia? I also revisit a 2018 email where I dreamed of this very feature.
Whoop
Whoop 5.0 is here—smaller (?), more powerful (?), and up to 14 days of battery life. This article offers a fair and honest breakdown of what works, what the company got wrong, and where the new model still overpromises and underdelivers. Step tracking, comparison with the Whoop 4.0 included.
💍Ultrahuman AIR
During its Summer Release Sprint '25, Ultrahuman unveiled a range of new features, improvements, and products within its wearable ecosystem. According to the official blog, it was a week of intense cross-team collaboration focused on “redefining what’s possible.” So—did they manage to redefine it?
💍Ultrahuman AIR
To celebrate the 2-year anniversary of the Ultrahuman Ring, there’s now a 15% discount available until June 30, 2025.
Ultrahuman Home
Ultrahuman Home is a smart device designed to monitor indoor environmental quality. It measures CO₂, dust, noise, and light, and works in synergy with the Ultrahuman Air ring. In this article, I share my testing experience and real-life examples of using it at home.
🏆 Best smart ring
Which smart ring detects illness the best? During a week with the flu, I tracked how different rings (Oura, RingConn, Ultrahuman…) and other wearables (Whoop, Garmin Fenix 8, Apple Watch Ultra, Elonga) responded. Which devices gave an early warning — and which ones failed?
Whoop
Whoop 5.0 Is Here – Smaller, More Powerful, and With Up to 14 Days of Battery Life. But the New Membership Model Divides the Community. What does the MG model with an ECG sensor bring to the table? And why are some users disappointed by the broken promise of a “free upgrade”?
Ultrahuman Home
The official launch is set for May 6th, but we’re already putting it through its paces. The Home is part of the Ultrahuman ecosystem alongside the Ultrahuman Air smart ring — together, they provide valuable insights into how your environment affects your sleep, recovery, and overall well-being.
All the smart rings in one place and in context. Tests, reviews, answers, discounts, etc.

Circular 2 promises ECG, ovulation tracking, and blood pressure monitoring – all without a subscription. Sounds great, but what’s real and what’s just hype? I share my experience and why the ring's vibrations aren’t just a small detail.
Which smart ring tracks steps the most accurately? I spent a week using the StepWatch 5 ankle device as a reference to compare the step-tracking accuracy of the best smart rings and other popular wearables. How did favorites like Oura, Ultrahuman, RingConn, Whoop, and Garmin perform?
Which smart ring measures sleep best? I spent a night in a sleep lab to compare the sleep tracking accuracy of the top models against the gold standard—polysomnography (PSG). How did Oura, Samsung, Ultrahuman, and others perform? The results might surprise you!
RingConn has launched a budget-friendly version of its smart ring—the Gen 2 Air. I tested it for a month, focusing on key features, battery life, and pricing. This review compares it with the premium Gen 2 to help you decide which one suits you best.
Let me share a strange experience. Maybe you've heard rumors about defects and poor customer service from Circular. Well, I faced a critical issue—Error ES02: Upload Error. Luckily, I had a second Circular Slim for testing. Then things got even stranger!
CES (Consumer Electronics Show) is an annual showcase of technological innovations. Each year, we can see more and more representatives of smart rings. So, what stood out to me this year?
A highly requested feature is here! Ultrahuman has introduced the long-awaited smart alarm functionality. It promises comfort, a scientific approach to sleep, and an improved morning routine. How does it work, what does it offer, and how does it compare to other devices?

I’ve received plenty of messages asking about the results from the sleep lab and how the various smart rings performed. Unfortunately, I still don’t have the official results, but I do have some basic data to share for those interested. Here's a quick overview!
The holidays of capitalism 🎉, Black Friday and its counterparts (Cyber Monday, Christmas?), are here! And if I put aside the often overwhelming aftertaste of consumerist marketing, I have to admit it's a chance to save some money. Maybe even on a new smart ring.
