I tried a $170 Oura Ring alternative with no subscription - here's my buying advice
"So when an affordable smart ring slides across my review desk, I'm eager to try it out for myself. The is a $170 smart ring that's much cheaper than its competitors. How does it compare to its more expensive counterparts? I tested the ring by wearing it alongside my Oura Ring 4 to see how the data capture, recommendations, insights, and hardware compared."
"I'll begin by saying that the smart ring is very affordable. It's probably one of the cheapest you can find, in fact -- something to note for anyone looking for a first-time smart ring. In terms of deisgn, the Lynx is different from what I've tested, with a distinct look from its competitors. It comes in two colors: black and silver, and sizes six through 13, with a thin line wrapping around its edge. Its "skipping stone" charging case also adds a unique touch."
The Lynx is a $170 smart ring that provides basic activity, sleep, and stress tracking with a seven-day battery life. The ring features a distinct hardware design available in black or silver and sizes six through 13, and includes a "skipping stone" charging case. Setup and data loading operate smoothly with quick result syncing. The device lacks a single standout feature and does not match higher-end rings' advanced analytics or subscription-backed insights. The Lynx reliably delivers core monitoring—general sleep insights and heart-rate tracking—at a significantly lower price for entry-level buyers.
