Based on 1 year's data from Mar 17, 2026 How it works
Don't expect accurate heart rate. I have the gen 1, and unless they did some crazy improvements in Gen 2, the heart rate is pretty bad. Won't detect when it's real high while you're exercising. Everything else is pretty good, though.
Ringconn catches naps my Garmin misses
ringconn ring is great for sleep
ringconn over oura ring! i’ve had mine for over 6 months and there is no required subscription, and battery life is still at 10 days.
I wear Garmin, Fitbit, RingConn and Helio Strap 🤣
I had switched to Garmin for awhile, but came back to getting a new Apple Watch, as I missed some of the smartwatch features. I also felt limited by the Garmin ecosystem, unable to push HRV into Apple Health where it can be used by other apps like Bevel. I do miss the battery life though. I pretty much tested all the available apps and ended up with Bevel. The major thing I liked was the AI, both in the notifications during the day, after activities, and within each of the tracked data. I get quick summaries that way without having to study a graph. I had also used Ringconn for awhile (like Oura but no subscription fee), but it also didn’t send HRV to Apple Health, and the ring fit was an ongoing challenge, sometimes too tight and sometimes too loose.
Strongly dislike Apple Watch. Oura is just ok - not happy with app. Fitbits die after so many months. RingConn has been my most reliable so far. Oh and I don’t care much for watches or anything on my wrists
I have a Ringconn ring! Less obtrusive.
Well strap seems to me a way bulkier. (Dont have Amaz helio ring, but ringconn and In used to it). Usually when I get home, I take off my watch right away to rest, I'm afraid the strap will get in my way.
same, I got a ring that didn't require a sub and it's working well. I hate subscription model. But I get it.
I was only wearing apple watch for a long time as well and this year switched to a traditional watch and not looking back. It took a little getting used to but I am happier and poorer now. I got a ringconn to track my heart rate and sleep but mostly for outliers. I don't really use those data in any detailed way. Watches have become my main hobby other than playing with my kids. So stick with the Apple watch if you want your wallet to be fuller.
