A brand new subscription-free sensible ring has hit the market, and in contrast to the Oura ring, it does not require a subscription. The Luna Ring 2.0 even prices much less up entrance: It begins at $300 (or $349 with the charging case), round $50 cheaper than each Oura and Ultrahuman.
The Luna ring is made by Noise, an India-based wearables firm. The Luna 2.0 is the primary model of the ring that’s accessible within the U.S., in case you puzzled whether or not you missed out on a whole earlier ring. Noise teased the ring at CES in January, but it surely’s lastly hitting the marketplace for actual.
In keeping with the spec sheet, the Luna ring and its app will monitor sleep, coronary heart charge, and blood oxygen, auto-detect strolling and operating, and supply an AI coach. Just like the Ultrahuman system, it would additionally present caffeine window reminders. The comparability chart on the product web page lists the software program as “free” in distinction to Oura’s $5.99/month subscription and Ultrahuman’s “paywall restricted options” (Ultrahuman presents add-ons for a charge), suggesting Noise additionally does not intend to supply a premium subscription tier. (I’ve put collectively a full value comparability between the Oura Ring and the Ultrahuman in case you’re curious, however suffice it to say, the Luna needs to be cheaper than each.)
That stated, Noise’s comparability chart appears a bit off to me—it lists Ultrahuman and Oura as each having the identical battery life and cost time, however I discovered these two to be considerably completely different, with Oura having an extended battery life and shorter cost time. Will probably be fascinating to see whether or not Luna sticks to its guarantees of “4-7 days” battery life and “120 minutes” cost time. These stats would put it roughly on par with Ultrahuman.
What do you assume to this point?
Thus far, Luna looks as if an enough Oura clone, minus the month-to-month subscription charge. It additionally has one characteristic that neither of its two greatest opponents presents: a charging case. In keeping with the corporate, the Luna ring’s charging case presents 30 days value of battery life. When you ask me, with the ability to deliver a case alongside in your fitness center bag or on a visit is a sport changer, as I at all times take off my sensible ring once I’m lifting weights, and I might love a spot to place it. If it additionally tops up the battery, all the higher.
