CES 2024: Amazfit’s first smart ring comes out ahead of Samsung Galaxy Ring

The new Amazfit Helio Smart Ring was announced at CES 2024 in Las Vegas. The Helio Smart Ring aims to improve athletic performance by analyzing physical and mental data. The ring can be worn as a standalone device or in tandem with an Amazfit smartwatch for additional data. Amazfit plans to release the ring in the spring of 2024.

Smart rings haven’t been widely adopted, unless you count the Oura Ring, but that’s not stopping companies from releasing their own models to get their piece of the pie. So far, other smart rings have been released by relatively unknown companies, and while Samsung is rumored to be prepping a Galaxy Ring, Amazfit has just joined the fray with a new Helio ring.

Announced at CES 2024, the Helio Ring is created from «skin-friendly» lightweight titanium with a 2.6mm-thick body. With built-in sensors, the ring is able to track heart rate, blood oxygen levels, stress and sleep. Amazfit claims that based on this data, the ring will analyze your performance and give you a readiness score in the Zepp app.

Amazfit also notes that users can wear the ring in tandem with the company’s own smartwatches, such as the T-Rex Ultra, allowing the Zepp app to pull data from both devices for a more complete view of your performance. However, if you don’t have the Amazfit app, you can use the Helio Ring on its own.

And if you don’t have the Amazfit app, you can use the Helio Ring by itself.

So far, it doesn’t look too much like the Oura Ring, though Amazfit hasn’t revealed all the details about its upcoming smart ring, such as battery life. It will have 10 ATM water resistance and the ability to track running, walking, cycling, and treadmill workout modes, though it’s unclear if it will be anything else. Amazfit also says the rings will be available in sizes 10 and 12, which seems pretty limited.

We know that the Helio Ring will be available in the spring of 2024. We don’t know how much it will cost, but Amazfit smartwatches are known as more affordable alternatives to the best Android smartwatches, so we wouldn’t be surprised if it costs less than the Oura Ring.
