From smartphones to smartwatches and now smart rings, the tech world has long been on a mission to upgrade our everyday accessories. Smart rings, in particular, are having a moment right now, perhaps because of their screen-free nature and subtle size, perhaps because of their in-depth health insights. And while they may be one of, if not the, smallest piece of wearable tech, they offer big benefits.
When we say smart rings, most likely the Oura Ring springs to mind. Quite right: it was the first sleep and health tracking smart ring to launch, back in 2015. But it wasn’t until almost 10 years later that smart rings really started to take off, with the likes of Samsung and Ultrahuman creating their own versions. Today, everyone from the England football team and Prince Harry to Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Aniston are fans – and undoubtedly you also know a slew of people in thrall to their own smart ring.
So what do smart rings actually do? The rings, which easily pass as normal jewellery thanks to their slimline designs in shiny golds and silvers or subtle, inoffensive blacks, measure a whole range of metrics. From daily steps to specific workouts such as running, gym sessions and cycling, they log your activity and provide analytics such as heart rate, heart rate variability and blood oxygen levels. They can also track sleep, including the number of hours and time spent in each stage of sleep (REM, deep sleep, etc) as well as its efficiency and quality.
Other insights can include body temperature, stress levels, active minutes and calories burnt, alongside recovery analyses providing ‘readiness’ scores with energy levels. Easy to sync to your smartphone, whether Android or iOS, usually via Bluetooth connectivity, smart rings are a seamless way to keep on top of your overall health and wellness alongside accomplishing fitness goals.
Ready to get your hands on a smart ring? Here are our favourites.
Oura Ring 5
Perhaps the most talked-about of smart rings, and the world’s smallest, the Oura Ring’s fifth generation launched in May 2026. Designed for everyday wear, it can track more than 50 health metrics, including activity and movement, sleep and rest, heart health, and stress, with a long-lasting battery life of up to nine days. Available in silver, black, gold, and rose among other colours, as well as in multiple sizes, slip on your finger and monitor all your stats in the Oura app.
Samsung Galaxy Ring
Samsung debuted its first smart ring back in summer 2024. The Galaxy Ring uses Galaxy AI to provide accurate insights into a range of personal health and fitness metrics, from heart rate and step count to sleep quality and body temperature. Lightweight and designed to move with you, choose from titanium black, gold and silver and wear for up to seven days on a full charge before docking in its charging case.
Reebok smart ring 13
Sportswear brand Reebok might be best known for its apparel and accessories, but it also dives into the world of technology with its sports equipment. Launched in autumn 2025, this smart ring is designed for active types. A minimalist aesthetic, though not quite as subtle and slimline as some of its competitors, it tracks everything from reps to recovery, including your heart rate, oxygen levels, skin temperature and sleep. Synced with the Reebok Fitness app, it’s easy to use and a great way to keep tabs on your performance and rest.
Ultrahuman Ring Pro
Track performance, sleep and recovery with Ultrahuman’s Ring Pro. With up to an impressive 15 days of battery life (the best of the bunch), it provides 24/7 insight into your body metrics while being lightweight and sleek, available in gold, silver, black and titanium finishes.
Gabit smart ring
Gabit, an AI-powered health, wellness and longevity platform, launched its smart ring at the beginning of this year. A wearable device that tracks all four pillars of health – sleep, fitness, nutrition and stress – and comes in graphite black, matte silver and gold, this smart ring gives you an all-round picture of your mental and physical health. Track steps and workouts as well as your heart rate, oxygen and stress levels to optimise your energy output and recovery time – consider it your personal health coach. Use in tandem with the Gabit app and charge every seven to 10 days.
Leep smart ring
Leep’s smart ring focuses its attention on sleep. Designed to track sleep duration, quality, and certain patterns, as well as activity and heart rate, it allows users to better understand rest and recovery time. A thin silhouette in starlight silver or midnight blue, it will last seven full days once fully charged and comes in at a substantially lower price point than other smart rings.
Luna smart ring Gen 2
Another smart ring that came on the scene in autumn 2025, Luna’s wearable band tracks movement, heart rate, sleep and stress levels, as well as providing workout and nutrition plans for an all-round approach to your physical and mental wellbeing. Available in multiple colourways from rose gold to lunar black, there is an option for every taste, and it’s been tested by athletes across the world, including Olympian swimmer Kokoro Frost and Hyrox pro Susana Alonso Domínguez. If it’s good enough for them…
