Ultrahuman Ring Pro review: The future of smart rings looks a lot like its present - Engadget
"Ultrahuman's Ring Pro is a smart fitness tracking ring weighing between 3.3 and 4.8 grams (approx 0.1 oz) (available in sizes 5 to 14. It's the company's first major hardware update since 2023's Ring Air, and has been redesigned from the ground up. Two things prompted the change: First, Ring Air fell foul of an Oura-owned patent which saw it contentiously blocked from sale in the US. Second, the company realized it had done all it could with the Air and needed to radically increase the ring's processing power."
"Consequently, the new model comes with a dual-core chip with onboard machine learning and 250 days of internal storage. That's a big leap from the Air's single-core unit which had just four days of memory to keep track of your vitals. Ultrahuman hopes Jade, the company's new AI, will be able to delve deep and pluck out plenty of conclusions based on these long historical trends. Plus, the company expects to be able to launch a wider variety of Power Plugs - paid-for add-ons tailored to monitoring specific stats - as the ecosystem matures."
Ultrahuman Ring Pro is a redesigned smart fitness tracking ring intended to compete with Oura. The ring weighs between 3.3 and 4.8 grams and is available in sizes 5 to 14. It replaces the Ring Air after a patent issue blocked Ring Air sales in the US and after Ultrahuman determined it had reached limits with the earlier model. Ring Pro includes a dual-core chip with onboard machine learning and 250 days of internal storage, compared with Ring Air’s single-core chip and four days of memory. Ultrahuman expects its new AI, Jade, to analyze long-term trends and generate conclusions. The company also plans to expand Power Plugs, paid add-ons focused on monitoring specific statistics.
