Fitness Enthusiasts Can Score the Ultrahuman Ring Air for $290 or Less, a New Low

We’re fans of this smart ring that doesn’t require a subscription and flags bad habits. And if you’re a new customer, you could score it for as little as $260 at QVC.

Many of us would like to stay on top of our health, and one way to keep track of your fitness, sleep and other important metrics is a wearable fitness tracker. But not all of us want a bulky smartwatch. That’s where smart rings come in.

Right now QVC has slashed the cost of the Ultrahuman Ring Air to just $290. That’s a solid $59 savings on its list price and beats the price we saw during Prime Day this year. What’s more — if you’re new to QVC, you can use coupon code HELLO30 for an additional $30 off, slashing the price to just $260.

This smart ring is one of our favorite options, tracking sleep, stress, heart rate and even caffeine intake. It’s also water-resistant, compatible with both iOS and Android and, perhaps best of all, you do not need to pay for an additional subscription to use the Ultrahuman ring. The battery should last up to five days between charges, too.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

CNET expert Vanessa Hand Orellana wrote in her review that «the Ultrahuman Ring Air is a solid first smart ring for most people. It’s not flawless, especially when it comes to workout tracking, but it’s a great wellness companion that can help you improve or adopt healthier habits. The lack of a subscription alone makes it one of the most accessible smart rings out there.» Plus, this deal is available in all five colorways, so you can grab the one that best suits your style.

Note that QVC will first ship a sizing kit, then you’ll need to select the right size for you and your ring will ship separately after your confirmation.
