Acer is now making smart rings too –when is it time for an iRing?

Acer FreeSense smart ring.

I've been saying it for a while now, but I firmly believe that smart rings (and smart glasses) are set to dominate the wearable tech market as soon as they become more accessible and more affordable for everyday users. It seems that Acer agrees, as the company has announced its first-ever smart ring product at Computex in Taipei. And, if pricing speculation is to be believed, it's going to be seriously undercutting the competition.

The Acer FreeSense Ring announcement came as a surprise to many, given that Acer is more commonly associated with manufacturing some of the best laptops for game development. While we don't know much about this new Acer product yet, it's confirmed to be AI-powered and will offer health monitoring features like sleep and fitness tracking.
