Smart Ring Battles Legal Storm Amidst US Launch
29 Oct
Summary
- Ultrahuman's Ring Pro is now available at major US retailers.
- Competitor Oura filed a patent infringement complaint six days prior.
- Ring Pro offers a subscription-free experience with long battery life.
Ultrahuman's Ring Pro smart ring is now available for purchase on major US retail websites and in select physical stores, marking a significant step in its US market entry. This launch occurs just six days after rival Oura filed a patent infringement complaint, seeking to halt its sale in the United States.
The Ring Pro is priced at $479 and offers comprehensive health tracking, including heart rate, sleep, and stress, without requiring a subscription. It boasts a battery life of up to 15 days and on-device data storage for up to 250 days. Optional add-ons, called PowerPlugs, are available for enhanced health monitoring.
Despite a previous ban of its Ring Air model in August 2025 due to a patent dispute with Oura, Ultrahuman stated it will vigorously defend its position regarding the Ring Pro. The company confirmed its intention to continue manufacturing and selling the Ring Pro in the US market.
