RingConn Gen 2Specs, Battery Life & Price
No release date reportedGuide updated
The RingConn Gen 2 is a titanium ring weighing about 2g, in nine sizes from 6 to 14, and it charges through an included case that holds up to 150 days between wall plugs. On its own it runs 10 to 12 days. It tracks sleep and health with no subscription attached, which is the thing RingConn built its name on, and it monitors sleep apnea using an AHI figure you take yourself.
