Connected rings are on the rise, but purchasing them can quickly become a headache. To choose the right size, you often have to use a measuring kit, which extends lead times and generates waste. With the Ring 2, Circular is a game changer. Its innovation? A size measurement system via smartphone! Simply place your hand under a card (like a credit card) and let the algorithm estimate the size of the finger.
A ring that is also a portable clinic
Although the technology is still in development – some detected sizes lack a little precision, according to initial opinions – the idea is there: a faster and more eco-friendly process. Less packaging, less hassle, and a simplified purchase for the user.
In terms of features, the Circular Ring 2 doesn’t do things by halves. Equipped with improved sensors, the ring tracks precise metrics like the ECG (electrocardiogram) and offers an algorithm validated by the FDA (the American health authorities) to detect atrial fibrillation, a heart abnormality. Clearly, the ring offers health data in real time, so you can stay tuned to your body. Circular also promises detailed sleep analysis, for those who want to optimize their nights, if such a thing is possible.
To support these health tools, the brand has revised its mobile application. It is intended to be more intuitive and designed to reflect the “luxurious” design of the ring, while making the data more accessible and easy to use. Because, as Circular reminds us, the challenge is not only to collect data, but to make it useful.
Beyond health, the Ring 2 also focuses on its design. Completely redesigned, it is made of titanium, a material that is both light and robust, and is available in four colors: gold, rose gold, silver and black. Enough to seduce lovers of discreet elegance.
In terms of autonomy, the ring lasts up to eight days with active health monitoring 24/7. It also comes with a wireless charging pad, so you’ll never be caught off guard. However, this connected ring comes at a Price. Announced at $380, the product is more expensive than some competitors like the Ultrahuman Ring Air ($349) or the RingConn Smart Ring Gen 2 ($299). Circular is planning a crowdfunding campaign in January 2025 before its official release in February or March.
