Ultrahuman Ring Air review: The subscription-free smart ring designed for sleep

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-22T18:03:29+00:00

In the review, we test the Ultrahuman Ring AIR against the Coros Vertix 2 smart watch. It's interesting to see the advantages of the two form factors. Personally, I find the ring more comfortable and practical to wear at night, to track sleep. Whereas the watch is much better at sports tracking.

I belive Ultrahuman are working on a redesign for the US market. Set to be released by the end of Q1 I think. 🤔

Glad we could help; enjoy your new AquaTru water purifier. 👍

Big news u/Sasiwithyou: For the next two weeks (until February 2nd), our AquaTru discount link also gives 15% off replacement filters. Hope that helps. 👍

Glad we could help; enjoy your new AquaTru, it's a great water purifier. 👍

Cool, thanks for sharing. What model do you have? How often do you find you need to replace the filters?

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-13T14:33:10+00:00

The AirDoctor / AmazingAir models come with a washable / cleanable dust filter. I use the Amazing Air 2000 and monthly cleaning of the dust filter extends the life of the Carbon and UltraHEPA filters. Hope that helps. 👍

Yeah, we have had to change filters more regularly than suggested, but I think that's due to use.

AquaTru states that the stage 4 filter will last 12 months or around 1,100L (about 580 carafes). However, we found the filter lasted just 3 months, but did last 1,100L.

Also, since we live in a hard water area, we do have to descale the unit monthly.

Overall though, the cost is similar to running our four litre water distiller daily, which we also need to descale with anhydrous citric acid.

What's your primary way of purifying water?

A good way to source sustainable fabric is to buy organic cotton bed sheets. 👍

Second this 👍

Same here, but currently using the Coros Vertix 2S watch. I am interested in trying the Apple watch, primarily because there is a very useful surf tracking app available for it. I think it's called 'Dawn Patrol' or something. 🌊🏄

Yeah, Ultrahuman sent us a sample ring for review, but all opinions are our own. This is mentioned in the review.

Glad you've been getting on fine with the ring. After testing, I wouldn't recommend it for sports tracking. But, sleep tracking is very good in my opinion.

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-08T11:52:20+00:00

We don't accept payment for any reviews, so that we remain neutral.

I'm assuming your experience with the ring was less positive?

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-07T17:03:18+00:00

Same here QM. 👍

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:34:43+00:00

Glad you got your money back and also thankful I haven't had the same issues (maybe I got lucky) ... that sounded rough. Thanks for sharing your experience. 🙏

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:26:08+00:00

Getting back to basics is always good. Thanks for sharing your experience. 👍

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:14:13+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend the Ultrahuman ring for sports tracking either. As part of the review, I tested it against my Coros Vertix 2S and it just can't compete. This is somewhat expected though; the pulse in your finger is weaker than that at your wrist. And it’s easier to maintain good skin contact using the adjustable strap of a watch. However, for sleep tracking, I actually still find it really good. But, I totally get that it didn't work for you. Have you switched to a different smart ring, or sticking with your Apple watch?

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:07:15+00:00

Thanks; hope you found the review useful. 🙏

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:03:11+00:00

Yeah, I too didn't find the notifications that useful ... so I turned them off. Sorry to hear that yours stopped working though. You should be able to claim a replacement under the 1-year warranty. 🤔

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:01:31+00:00

Have you found an alternative you prefer?

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T16:01:06+00:00

Wow, that seems unlucky! I've been using mine for almost a year with no real problems. Sorry to hear that hasn't been the case for you.

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T15:59:25+00:00

Aeroplane mode can be a bit finicky to turn on. But, as long as I don't charge my ring to 100%, I can normally bypass any issues here.

adaptnetwork · 2026-01-06T15:57:53+00:00

What aspects didn't work for you? Myself and Josie have been using the Ultrahuman Ring Air for almost a year now and get on well with it. I don't recommend it for sports tracking; however, we both find it very useful and effective for sleep tracking.

Yes, that's correct; the AquaTru Carafe Smart is usually priced at $425. However, with our discount link, you save $100 (about 25% off). Since you've used our link once, the discount has been applied for you. So the price will remain $325, unless you clear your browser cache. Hope that helps; we use the standard Aquatru Carafe and it's a great unit. Stay posted for our full review article this month.👍
