RingConn Gen 2: 12-Day Battery, No Subscription
30 Nov
Summary
- RingConn Gen 2 boasts 10-12 day battery life.
- It costs $300 and requires no subscription.
- App interface feels underdeveloped, lacking context.
The RingConn Gen 2 smart ring stands out with a battery life claimed to reach 10 to 12 days, a significant advantage over many competitors that struggle to last a week. Priced at $300, it offers a more accessible entry point into the smart ring market, notably without requiring a subscription for full access to health data, unlike some rival devices.
This smart ring monitors vitals, sleep, activity, and stress, presenting data through a visually digestible Wellness Balance feature. While it lacks a direct 'readiness' score found in other rings, its approach offers a unique perspective on overall well-being. The build is comfortable and durable, and the inclusion of a charging case that provides over 150 days of power adds substantial convenience.
Despite its strengths in battery performance and cost-effectiveness, the RingConn Gen 2's user interface is identified as a drawback, feeling underdeveloped and sometimes offering generic feedback. However, for users prioritizing long battery life and a subscription-free experience over a highly polished app, the RingConn Gen 2 presents a strong, cost-effective option.
