Smart rings are the new wearables trend, with several manufacturers releasing competing models, but most of them are quite expensive: for example, a Galaxy Ring costs $400, and a third-generation Oura Ring (which is already three years old) is still $300. But smart rings don’t have to be expensive, as Rollme’s new model proves.
Rollme R3 Smart Ring in Black, Silver and Gold
The Rollme R3 can be yours for just $90. Technically, there are two models that precede it, but Rollme released the R1 in January of this year and the R2 in March. The R1 costs $100 and the R2 costs $90.
The R3 comes in a range of sizes from 7 to 12 and can be purchased with a black, silver or gold exterior. The exterior is made of titanium, while the interior is made of hypoallergenic epoxy resin, which does not irritate the skin.
Rollme R3 Construction • Charging Case
The ring has a built-in 17.5mAh battery, which should last 10 days with regular use. It comes with a small charging case, which will extend the total usage time to 60 days.
The ring has a heart rate sensor with IR, red and green LED, which can measure your heart rate, heart rate variability and blood oxygen saturation. You can use it to track your health and exercise with multiple sports modes (walking, running, cycling, etc.).
Health and exercise tracking
The ring has a 5 ATM water resistance and you can wear it for swimming and even snorkeling, Rollme claims. And at the end of the day, the R3 ring will monitor your sleep with deep and light sleep detection.
Sleep Tracking • The Rollme R3 is waterproof
The ring has one more use: gesture control. You can set up the double-tap gesture to play or pause audio, take a photo with your phone, start recording a video, or, if you’re reading an e-book, turn the page to the next page.
The R3 supports a customizable double-tap gesture
