stress
I arrived at the interview wearing my wearables – Garmin, Whoop, Oura, and the AI pendant Limitless. All detected stress, each differently. The highest peak? Garmin: 99/100 right in the middle of the talk. Which one told the truth? And what does the LLM say?
Omni
Omni Ring enters the smart ring market with a focus on AI and nutritional guidance. It promises a unique Energy QI metric similar to Garmin’s Body Battery, a charging case, and one month of premium subscription. But how does it compare to the holy trinity — Oura, Ultrahuman, and RingConn? Let’s see!
![Whoop 5 / MG – is it worth the money? [Review]](https://storage.ghost.io/c/01/ca/01ca9f1d-13b0-43d5-a8fe-dac2f7d3dc2f/content/images/size/w600/2025/10/WHOOP-MG-review.png)
Whoop
A slightly different take on a review of the screenless fitness tracker Whoop. What drew me to it, and what put me off? What turned out to be true, and what’s just empty marketing wrapped in Cristiano Ronaldo? Heads-up: this is going to be a long review — but I believe it's worth your time.
💍Circular Smart Rings
Circular is back with the Ring 2 – a sleek smart ring packed with features and no subscription. But without the signature vibration motor and with reused hardware, can they really win back trust after a rocky start? Watch the unboxing and early thoughts.
Nova Ring R is a surprisingly solid budget smart ring. It tracks basic metrics — with decent hardware and minimalist design. A great entry point for anyone curious about smart rings without breaking the bank.
Whoop
Who wouldn’t want smart boxers that wash themselves when needed, cool you down in summer, and keep you warm in winter? Well, that’s not what we’re talking about today. Whoops.
one ring
For many, the Muse One Ring was already written off. Every now and then I spotted a cry of “scam!” in the communities, but otherwise it was almost forgotten. And yet — here it is. The question is: how does it look, what can it already (not) do, and what remains a promise?
💍Ultrahuman AIR & PRO
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 & PRO
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?
