When smartphones came about, many people were skeptical about it. That was until technology won them over. The same happened when smartwatches came about. While many said no one will replace the beautiful analogue watches, people did and in large numbers.
Now, with the advent of smart rings, many are expressing the same skepticism, but the buzz around smart rings, despite some of them being expensive, proves this gadget will become common too.
A good smart ring can measure, track, and analyse health-related data to offer personal fitness tips. Here, we have curated five smart rings, readily available in India, that take your wellness game to the next level.
But, before we get to the available options, here are a few things you need to consider before buying one.
Smart rings work best when they offer a snug fit, and this is why it is important to get the right-sized smart ring. Depending on the brand, smart rings will be available in multiple sizes. A ring size kit will help you decide on the right ring size. While some brands offer these ring size kits for a small fee, most company’s offer it for free of cost.
Some smart rings like the Galaxy Ring are only compatible with Android smartphones, while most of the options can be paired to an Android or an iOS device. Hence, it is always important to look into the nitty gritty before circling down on one specific model.
Smart rings, besides being a fitness tracker, can also be a style statement. Some of the high-end smart rings are made using premium materials like titanium, while budget options settle for stainless steel. If you are considering a smart ring as a fashion accessory, then explore different designs and colour options.
Now, here are five smart rings that are worth considering in 2024:
This is the most expensive and premium smart ring money can get in India. Made using titanium, the Galaxy Ring comes in three different colours and nine different sizes, making it one of the most versatile smart rings in the market in terms of fit and finish. Again, the Galaxy Ring is only compatible with Android smartphones and it works best when paired with a Samsung Galaxy smartphone.
boAt’s Active S8 smart ring is one of the most affordable smart rings from a noted brand in India. Despite its entry-level price tag, it has almost all the features that one comes to expect from a smart ring. This includes fitness-related features like step tracking, heart rate, sleep, and SpO2 monitoring. However, the metrics from the smart ring might not be as accurate as some of the other options in the market.
This sits in-between the first two options, and the best part about the Gabit smart ring is the fact that it works flawlessly with both Android and iOS devices. Like the Galaxy Ring, this one is also using titanium. On a single charge, the ring can last up to seven days, and it is also water-resistant and swimproof.
One of the first fully fitness-focused smart rings to officially launch in India. It offers unique features like detecting early signs of AFib (Atrial Fibrillation) and can last up to six days on a single charge. Available in five different colour options, this is best suited for those who need a stylish-looking smart ring.
This is another fitness-centric smart ring with a premium design, and comes in three different sizes. It offers in-depth fitness monitoring to deliver mental and physical readiness analysis and it is also crafted using skin-friendly titanium alloy. The ring does not require any additional subscription and with typical usage, it can last up to four days per charge.
