Are you sold on the idea of a smart ring but hesitant to commit to a costly device with a monthly fee? The RingConn Gen 2 Air offers a compelling solution: a capable and stylish smart ring that provides most of what its expensive rivals do, but completely without the subscription. At £239, this wearable aims to be the cheap(er) smart ring to beat, but does it deliver on its promise?
✨ Sleek Design and Comfortable Fit
The RingConn Gen 2 Air follows the excellent design of RingConn’s other rings, making it one of the best-looking options available. It’s made from stainless steel and features a unique ‘squircle’ shape that is both stylish and comfortable. The fit is snug and reliable, preventing the ring from rolling around on your finger. It’s also impressively durable, with a waterproof rating of up to 100 meters, making it safe for swimming and showering. It comes in gold or silver finishes, and a free sizing kit ensures you get the perfect fit.
❤️ Comprehensive Tracking Without the Subscription
This is where the Gen 2 Air truly shines. It contains the same optical sensors as the more expensive flagship Gen 2, allowing it to track key metrics like heart rate, SpO2, sleep stages, skin temperature, and daily activity (like steps). Crucially, full access to the companion app and all your data is completely free, which is a major advantage over competitors that lock features behind a paywall. The core data, especially for sleep tracking, was found to be reliable and compared well against the Oura Ring 4.
⚡️ Excellent Battery Life: A Key Advantage
The RingConn Gen 2 Air delivers outstanding battery life. It promises up to 10 days on a single charge, which is significantly longer than many rivals, including the Samsung Galaxy Ring. Real-world testing confirmed this, with the daily battery drop consistently under 10%, meaning it can comfortably last well over a week. One trade-off for the lower price is the charging setup; RingConn has swapped the convenient charging case of its flagship model for a more standard charging dock.
