Oura just rolled out AI-powered glucose tracking and photo-based meal logging to expand into metabolic health. Users can pair a $99 Dexcom Stelo CGM to view blood sugar trends and AI summaries in the Oura app, while the Oura Advisor chatbot analyzes meal photos to estimate nutrition. Why it matters: Smart rings are pushing metabolic monitoring into the mainstream, turning raw glucose spikes into plain-language health advice.
Oura just rolled out Symptom Radar, an early-warning feature that flags signs of respiratory illness before symptoms hit. By tracking shifts in resting heart rate, body temperature trends, and breathing rates, the ring alerts users to take it easy. It arrives on Oura Ring Gen 3 and Oura Ring 4 by December 11.
Samsung just launched the Galaxy Ring, its first-ever smart ring priced at $399 with a battery life of up to seven days. The lightweight titanium device uses Galaxy AI to analyze biometrics and deliver personalized daily health scores. Why it matters: unlike market leader Oura, it requires no monthly subscription fee.
