Some people are paying hundreds of dollars for a tiny piece of tech that still charges a monthly fee. Others, however, have outsmarted the system by buying a $39.99 dupe right next to the impulse-buy phone chargers at Marshall’s.
A TikToker recorded and shared her treasure hunt for the Brookstone’s smart ring—the budget-friendly, no-subscription cousin of the Oura. Lo and behold, she actually found it sitting in the checkout tech aisle like it was no big deal. Now the internet is wondering if the Oura ring is even worth it when this cheaper version exists. Maybe the price is worth the benefits… except the TikToker’s update on the Brookstone ring just seems more convincing.
