So it looks like Apple is making a smart ring — but should you be paying attention? After all, surely you can get the data you need from your smartwatch. I thought something similar when I first heard of smart rings ... and then I tried one.
The first smart ring rolled onto my desk in 2017. It was the first generation of the Oura ring, and as excited as I was to (finally) hold a smart ring in my hand, I wasn’t convinced I’d like it, let alone that it would have mainstream appeal.
