RingConn has launched the Gen 3 smart ring, positioning the device as a direct competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Ring. The company announced the new wearable on May 28, 2024, highlighting its extended battery performance and health tracking capabilities.
The Gen 3 ring offers up to 14 days of battery life with the vibration feature turned off. This duration is double the seven-day runtime rated for the Samsung Galaxy Ring. The device includes a vibration module for haptic feedback, which supports health alerts and reminders. RingConn provides the ring in sizes 6 to 15, with a weight ranging from 2.5 to 3.5 grams. It also features 10 days of offline data storage and works with companion apps on iOS and Android.
Pre-orders for the RingConn Gen 3 are currently open in global and US markets. The starting retail price is 349 USD (about $349). Two premium color options are available for 332 USD (about $332), while the base model starts at 314 USD (about $314).
A blood pressure monitoring feature is not yet active on the device. RingConn states that this functionality will arrive via an upcoming software update. The company has not specified a release date for this update, leaving the timeline for this feature unclear.
