World’s Lightest and Thinnest Smart Ring from RingConn boasts 12-day Battery and AI-health tracking

Posted on 04/08/2024 by Sarang Sheth

Before you go out on a limb buying a Galaxy or Oura ring, the RingConn Gen 2 already holds the title for being the thinnest/lightest smart ring. It still manages to also boast of a 2-week-long battery life, the ability to track your health and sleep with AI-powered insights, IP68 water resistance, and here’s the kicker… a subscription-less smartphone app that gives you all your health data without hiding behind a paywall. With not one but TWO design awards under its belt, the RingConn Gen 2 boasts a $209 starting price – less than half of what its competitor’s smart rings go for. Here’s everything the Gen 2 can do…

Lighter than an AirPod, Thinner than a Credit Card

I’ve long proclaimed the superiority of smart rings to smartwatches. They’re ultimately a bunch of sensors hooked together – but the smart ring does offer a much more efficient format. It’s minimalist, can be worn alongside other rings (you can’t wear two watches), and all your data goes to your smartphone so your ring doesn’t need to worry about having its own display. This translates to a MUCH longer battery life, and the absence of a second display to get addicted to or to have inundate you with notifications. Smart rings are almost ALWAYS designed to be entirely waterproof so you can even swim with them, and they usually last a week or more on a full charge, making them vastly more superior to smartwatches.

Weighing between 2-3 grams, the RingConn’s Gen 2 is lighter than a single AirPod (which weighs 4 grams), and with a cross-section that’s 2mm wide, the ring is also about as thin as your average credit card. That lightweight and sleek form factor makes it perfect for wearing all-day every day because chances are within a few hours of slipping it on, you’ll forget you’re wearing it. Meanwhile, the ring will be hard at work, tracking your sleep, fitness/activity, heart rate, body temperature, stress levels, sleep apnea, and even acting as your period calendar (for women wearers).

Comprehensive AI-powered Sleep + Health Tracking

The RingConn Gen 2 does everything any wrist-worn health tracker does, but better. Its upgraded photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors can measure heart rate, heart rate variability, and blood oxygen levels with great accuracy. These sensors are embedded in a design that takes advantage of the finger’s unique anatomy, which allows for MUCH more precise readings compared to wrist-based devices. The temperature sensor gauges your temperature levels as well as fluctuations, pairing it with your heart rate data to get a sense of your stress levels or even if you’re on your period. Combine all three with the accelerometer and the Gen 2 captures all your steps and other physical activity, tracking various sports from running to cycling, soccer, swimming, and a bunch more.

At the end of your day, the ring also tracks your sleep using AI. In 2024, RingConn unveiled its first transformer-based deep learning model for sleep apnea detection – the ring uses this AI-based learning model to identify sleep risk events that could be affecting your health – something other smart rings currently cannot because they haven’t built out such AI models. The more you wear the ring, the more it learns and the more personalized it becomes, getting better at tracking and identifying your quality of sleep and even detecting any drops in blood oxygen caused by apnea events and obstructed breathing (snoring, etc.)

Fitness Insights without a Monthly Subscription

I can’t stress this enough but your health should never be behind a paywall. It really doesn’t make sense to buy a fitness tracker only to then have an app that gates pro-level health tracking metrics behind a subscription model. To that end, the RingConn Gen 2 makes a pretty bold claim of not hiding behind any sort of freemium or premium business model. The RingConn app, available for Android and iOS devices, is free to use, and locally backs up all your health data. This allows you to monitor your health even when your smartphone isn’t connected to the internet. Picture yourself trekking in the wilderness with no cellular service but still being able to track your metrics in real-time.

Your health data is also compatible with leading fitness apps such as Apple Health and Google Health Connect, allowing you to comprehensively track workouts, sports, and all other activities within one singular dashboard. For specific insights, the RingConn app is still your go-to destination… and its sleep-tracking feature gives you a holistic look at your body’s metrics through your entire sleep journey, allowing you to catch any potential concerning events immediately. The app also analyzes data throughout the day to provide a detailed stress index and ratio, helping you gain a clear understanding of your stress levels. Additionally, the RingConn Gen 2 features comprehensive menstrual health tracking right within the app, allowing users to monitor cycles, predict ovulation, and track symptoms for deeper insights into their health patterns.

Sleek Metal Design with 12-day Battery Life

The RingConn sports a hypoallergenic aerospace-grade titanium alloy exterior, while the inside of the ring has a medical-grade epoxy coating that allows the sensors to work accurately when in contact against the skin. Between these two layers lie all the hardware and sensors that power the Gen 2, along with a best-in-class battery. Lasting a stunning 5 more days than even the Galaxy and Oura rings, the RingConn Gen 2 boasts a 12-day battery life. It’s rather impressive considering exactly how small and thin the Gen 2 ring is. When the ring runs low on charge, it comes with its own charging case that begins working the second you slip the ring into its cylindrical platform. A simple 2-hour charge brings the Gen 2 ring’s battery to 100%, lasting nearly 2 weeks… and the case houses its own 500mAh battery so you can charge your ring without necessarily having the case plugged in.

The RingConn Gen 2 boasts a starting price of $209, which includes the ring itself, the charging case, and free global shipping. Upgrading to the $239 package also gives you a clear silicone ring protector and a separate bedside charging dock. The RingConn Gen 2 comes in 3 colors – Future Silver, Royal Gold, and Matte Black, across 9 sizes, ranging from a size #6 to a size #14 depending on your index finger’s diameter.

This Urwerk-inspired Watch has a Stunning Custom Linear Movement within its Titanium Watch Body

Posted on 03/08/2024 by Sarang Sheth

For the Urwerk and MB&F fans on a budget, the MS1001-Ti does what those brands do best – it challenges the very archetype of a wristwatch on every level… but does so on a $319 price tag.

Take one glance at the MS1001-Ti watch from MECEXP and I guarantee you’ll be compelled to look again and again. The watch’s avant-garde design goes beyond its chiseled shape. Instead of one watch face, it sports two – in the form of linear windows on the left and right, with moving arrows that point at the hours and minutes respectively. The windows are separated by a metal channel that serves as branding, but also provides cover for the watch’s unique backlight, giving the entire timetelling experience a modern facelift. The watch itself boasts a titanium alloy outer casing, complete with sapphire crystals on the front… and on the inside, the entire watch runs on MECEXP’s own self-developed movement, drawing power from a lithium-ion battery that recharges using a contact-point charger like the ones you get with smartwatches. In short, there’s nothing conventional about the MS1001-Ti and that’s precisely what makes it so incredible.

Designer: MECEXP

I know it’s an overused metaphor but the MS1001-Ti does share a lot spiritually with the Cybertruck. It challenges existing norms, comes with a uniquely geometric design and a highly durable construction, and runs on a lithium battery. In short, it’s electric on the inside, and unconventionally edgy on the outside. The watch itself sports a machined titanium-alloy body, known for being both hypoallergenic and hyper-durable. The oddly appealing low-poly design puts the watch in a visual class of its own, while its linear time-telling experience instantly turns it into an iconic wristwatch.

The time-telling UX is a masterclass in its own right. The watch doesn’t come with rotating hands or a digital screen. Instead, it uses a screw-based linear flyback movement and a traveling arrow to help tell the time. This unorthodox experience doesn’t require a learning curve – simply put, the hour is indicated on the left, and the minutes on the right. CNC motors operate the rotating screw, which allows the arrow to travel up and down the hour or minute window. It’s an experience that just as satisfying to watch as it is easy to read. Clear, large, 3D numbers on either side make the time easy to read in broad daylight… and if you want some added flair, pressing the crown on the side triggers the watch’s blue backlight, allowing you to read the time at night too.

A lithium-ion battery powers the entire experience bridging the gap between horology and technology. The MS1001-Ti replaces the conventional spring with CNC motors, which utilize digital programming and digital tracking for time calibration. “The complicated mechanical movement of the watch is achieved through algorithmic programming, perfectly integrating modern intelligence with mechanical timekeeping,” say the folks at MECEXP. In short, this timepiece isn’t for traditionalists or purists.

The MS1001-Ti bases itself on the company’s MS1001 design from not too long ago. The upgraded variant now sports a titanium outer shell, making it more durable but simultaneously lighter than its predecessor, weighing a mere 86 grams or 3 ounces, while also boasting a marginally larger dial and display window. The display window is capped with anti-scratch sapphire crystal which also gives the watch up to 30 meters or 3ATM of water resistance. Meanwhile, fluoro rubber straps offer a classic yet sporty aesthetic with the added benefit of being water/weather resistant. The inner 270mAh battery lasts a respectable 35 days on a full charge, and a contact-based charging cable lets you recharge your watch in a jiffy.

Despite its groundbreakingly different design and movement, the MS1001-Ti starts at an affordable $319, which includes a classy packaging box, a charging cable, 2 years of warranty, and free global shipping.

Tekto’s EDC Folding Knives get upgraded with Damascus and Forged Carbon design accents

Posted on 01/08/2024 by Sarang Sheth

They say you shouldn’t mess with perfection… but you could certainly give it a new paint-job and make it look even better than before. Tekto’s flagship folding knives are getting a design refresh, with variants made with forged carbon and Damascus marbling accents. The new variants will be available for enthusiasts, EDC users, and collectors as a special spin on some old favorites.

The three knives getting a refresh are the F1 Alpha, the F2 Bravo, and the F3 Charlie – all a part of Tekto’s folding knife lineup. The company is best known for their OTF knives (Out The Front Knives), but folders remain a classic part of their catalog, catering to people who love sticking to the basics. All knives are designed as collector-worthy knives that pack an absolute punch. They’re compact, deadly, and built for all sorts of outdoor and tactical scenarios.

Tekto F1 Alpha (Forged Carbon Handle with Silver Blade)

As Tekto’s most fierce folder, the F1 Alpha gets first mention. The new knife boasts the exact same crowd-pleasing design, but with a forged carbon handle and a silver-finish D2 steel blade. The F1 Alpha measures a respectable 4.5 inches when closed, opening up to reveal a 3.1-inch drop-point blade that handles everyday tasks like a breeze. A liner lock holds the blade in place, and jimping on top gives you a perfect grip as you maneuver the knife around. The reverse end of the handle also features a lanyard hole that doubles as a glass-breaker, allowing you to make a quick exit in any emergency scenarios. The entire knife weighs a mere 3.3 ounces, has an ambidextrous pocket clip design, and even comes with its own carrying pouch.

Tekto F2 Bravo (Damascus Pattern Handle with Black Blade)

Don’t let the Bravo name fool you – this one is Tekto’s slimmest, sleekest, and lightest folder of the three. At just 2.4 ounces, it’s miraculously light, making it great for quick maneuvering while cutting ropes, opening boxes, whittling wood, or slicing through leather and fabric. The knife has a 4.3-inch handle that houses a folded 3.3-inch drop-point blade made from D2 steel that’s hard enough to take on any sort of activity. Although the original did come with a speckled carbon fiber handle, this new variant gets a marbled Damascus pattern, with the same black-coated blade to give the F2 Bravo an extremely covert demeanor. Makes sense given how thin and light it is. The F2 Bravo also comes with its own carrying pouch, although the built-in pocket clip and lanyard hole should also suffice.

Tekto F3 Charlie (Forged Carbon Handle with Black Blade)

At 4.5 ounces, the F3 Charlie is the big brother of the three. It comes with a 5.2-inch handle that houses a large 3.8-inch titanium-coated D2 steel blade on the inside. Fold the blade out and its drop-point design is just as functional as its siblings, but the larger form factor gives it much more heft and power. The renewed variant sports a forged carbon handle with the same black-coated blade that gives the knife a stealthy aesthetic. Holding the F3 Charlie feels vastly different from something like the Bravo, which has a much slimmer design. The F3 Charlie is meaty, ergonomic, and is made for tactical use although it’s more than happy being used for opening boxes too. It sports a button-lock, which gives it reliability too, while simultaneously having the tactile satisfaction of being able to quickly deploy or close your knife with a flick of the wrist!

With the FitBeltSafeguard everyday belt, you no longer need to leave home unprepared to face any eventuality, whether you’re going out for a run, doing some groceries, or simply enjoying the fresh air.

Compact EDC multi-tool is a toolbox in your pocket that’s ready to fix anything

Posted on 29/07/2024 by Aki Ukita

One of the worst feelings in the world is facing a simple problem only to realize that you don’t have the right tool to fix it right then and there. This is especially true for people who work with their hands, whether as a tradesperson, a hobbyist, an adventurer, or even just someone who prefers to always be prepared to face any eventuality. Most would probably love to bring all their essential tools with them, but not only would that be cumbersome, it might even raise a few red flags here and there. Multifunctional tools or simply multi-tools for everyday carry bags and kits have become popular for this very reason, but many sacrifice functionality for the sake of boasting about their small sizes. Fortunately, it’s indeed possible to combine compactness and usefulness, and this handsome pocket wrench slash multi-tool is proud to show how.

Designer: Team IF

It’s not that easy to find an EDC tool that perfectly balances quality, functionality, and accessibility. Some promise small and light designs but skimp on durability or offer very few tools inside their compact body, while others do come like a tank but cost like gold. That’s why the OmniPro Tool is such a marvel of design and engineering, cramming no less than nine features in a single tool that’s no bigger than a credit card.

Yes, the OmniPro Tool boasts nine functional tools, or ten if you include the lanyard. The wrench is probably the most obvious one, offering precision and a secure grip for quick fixes or adjustments. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, of course, as every nook and cranny of this pocket tool has a secret to tell. That same spanner, for example, can be used as a very accurate caliper that not only lets you measure objects in an instant but also demonstrates the design’s attention to detail and craftsmanship. Need to measure something straight or draw a straight line? The side of the OmniPro Tool also functions as a ruler for quick and easy measurements.

The OmniPro Tool also functions as a bit driver that supports standard 1/4-inch hex bits and 1/6-inch bits, ensuring that you’re always ready to tackle any project, repair job, or task. Even better, it features a bit storage compartment that can hold up to four standard 1/4-inch hex bits. The compartment magnetically attaches to the spanner so those bits are never far from where you need them. A bi-directional ratchet screwdriver allows you to quickly switch direction with a simple thumb flick so that you won’t need two tools when you can do with one. The bottom of the multi-tool has a strategically placed window breaker so that you won’t be caught unprepared for emergencies. And when the work is done, you can use the OmniPro Tool to open a bottle of your favorite beverage. It even works as a phone stand so you can just sit back and relax, watching your favorite shows.

Even with all these features, the OmniPro Tool maintains a compact and lightweight size that’s also durable and weatherproof thanks to Grade 5 Titanium. Another proof of its thoughtful design is the three slots that can accommodate 1.5mm x 6mm tritium illumination, helping you see and locate the tool even in the dark. Whether you’re ready to take on the great outdoors, planning your next DIY project, or simply preparing for anything life may throw at you, the OmniPro Tool lets you carry your toolbox in your pocket so that you will never leave home unprepared ever again.

We’re living in a time where entertainment is at a point of evolution. Blu-Ray came and went, as did 3D content… but we’re fast approaching a future where spatial content may just become the norm. Videos today are shot in 4K and 8K, and videos in the future could be shot in spatial reality too, covering a 360° FoV. This means post-production teams will work with heavier file sizes and will need more than just an SSD attached to their iMac or Mac Pros. That’s where the Orico Data Matrix comes in. A hybrid storage solution that can provide anywhere between 5 and 112 terabytes of storage, the Orico Data Matrix lets you work with large files while offering write speeds of up to 1500Mb/s for CFexpress cards, or transfer speeds of a whopping 40Gb/s using Thunderbolt. The $699 device is absolutely perfect for video editing, post-production, and even animation, allowing you to speed up your workflow, no matter how heavy your files are!

The Data Matrix’s design clearly evokes a sleek, Apple-inspired sense of minimalism. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s exactly the same width and length as the Mac Mini or Mac Studio. The exterior is all anodized aluminum, while the interior sees the use of low-speed WD RED hard drives, combined with a large cache, anti-vibration mounting, and magnetic levitation fans, ensuring a quiet and efficient operation. This feature is particularly beneficial for creative professionals who often work during late hours and require a noise-free environment to maintain concentration and productivity. Its table-friendly design sits seamlessly on your desk alongside your other work peripherals, and if you’re relying on a Mac Mini/Studio or a Mac Pro, it helps to have all those ports accessible for cables.

The Data Matrix supports multiple I/O ports, including Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.1, and HDMI, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices and peripherals. This flexibility allows users to connect external hard drives, 4K displays, card readers, and other essential equipment seamlessly. The device also supports up to five daisy-chained devices, enabling users to expand their setup without compromising performance. This robust connectivity ensures that the Data Matrix can integrate smoothly into any professional workflow. Working with large file-sizes can often dramatically slow down your flow and pace too – but 1,500Mb/s writing and 3,000Mb/s reading speeds for the CFexpress cards, and overall 40Gb/s transfer speeds from the WD drives, allowing you to comfortably edit 8K videos in a jiffy.

RAID stacking capabilities further enhance the reliability and security of the ORICO Data Matrix. With various RAID configurations, including RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, JBOD, and Normal, users can choose the setup that best suits their needs. These configurations provide a balance between performance and redundancy, safeguarding valuable data against potential loss. The hardware-level RAID stacking ensures that data integrity is maintained, offering peace of mind to creative professionals who rely on secure storage for their work.

The ORICO Data Matrix is available in various storage capacities, ranging from 5TB to 112TB, catering to different project sizes and requirements. This flexibility makes it a versatile solution for various professional needs, from small-scale projects to extensive, high-capacity demands. The system also supports up to five daisy-chained devices, allowing users to connect additional hard drives, 4K displays, card readers, and other peripherals, further enhancing its versatility and adaptability. The 1-bay 5Tb variant starts at $699 and is perfect for agile teams and smaller studios, while the highest configuration (5-bay 112Tb) goes up to a whopping $4999 – but that’s almost entirely for larger organizations and global production offices.

Stay Cool Without AC: This Blanket’s Cutting-Edge Cooling Fibers can lower Body Temp by 60°F

Posted on 26/07/2024 by Aki Ukita

The future isn’t flying cars – it’s blanket-shaped air conditioners. As temperatures rise and ACs become increasingly necessary in homes, a Japan-based company has figured out how to turn something as benign as a blanket into a cooling device. The Infinity Cool Blanket is simultaneously a high-tech and a low-tech piece of bed decor. It’s low-tech in the sense that it’s quite literally a fabric blanket that you wrap yourself in as you sleep, but the high-tech aspect about it is its ability to cool you down by 15°C. The innovation lies in the blanket’s material, which promotes rapid heat absorption and dissipation, pulling the warmth from your body and emitting it quickly into the atmosphere. The result feels similar to being in a cooler room, as if you had your air conditioner on. Sweat evaporates in an instant, leaving you feeling breezy and comfortable even in the hot summers… without racking up an electricity bill.

The secret lies in the Infinity Cool Blanket’s high-performance cooling fibers. These specially crafted materials are embedded with sensors that respond to your body’s heat and moisture. As your temperature rises, the fibers activate, creating a noticeable cooling effect. This ensures a comfortable sleep environment throughout the night, no matter how much you toss and turn. But that’s just half the story – It employs innovative insulation technology to block external heat while effectively wicking away sweat and moisture. This double action prevents you from feeling stuffy or damp, ensuring a consistently cool and dry sleep experience. Multiple tests actually show a drop in body temperature up to as much as 15°C when using the Infinity Cool Blanket. The blanket has a clever way of adjusting your body’s temperature to bring you to a more comfortable state, no matter what the outside temperature is.

No Need For AC With Instantly Dive into -15°C Cooling

The Infinity Cool Blanket is designed with both comfort and convenience in mind. The lightweight, breathable fabric allows for maximum airflow, preventing you from feeling weighed down. The stretchy fabric cocoons you in coldness, and its natural anti-bacterial nature means you can use the Infinity Cool Blanket for weeks before it needs a wash. When it does, just toss it into the washing machine like you would a regular blanket. The fabric’s quick-drying feature ensures it’s dry and ready to use within hours of coming out of the dryer, and an anti-pilling treatment keeps the blanket soft and comfortable even after multiple washes, while the reinforced edges prevent fraying for long-lasting use.

The Infinity Cool Blanket is versatile enough for both indoor and outdoor use, making it a valuable companion for camping trips or simply relaxing in your backyard. It comes in a single size, big enough for one person, and even ships with a carrying pouch, just in case you want to take it with you on your travels.

Ditch the AirTag. ESR’s Geo Wallet comes with built-in Apple-certified Find My support

Posted on 25/07/2024 by Sarang Sheth

Isn’t it strange that the AirTag isn’t designed to fit into the one item worth actually tracking – your wallet?! Its bulky design just doesn’t go well with sleek wallets or traditional bifolds, and the fact that third-party companies like Chipolo and Tile are designing sleek card-shaped tracking devices just feels like a missed opportunity entirely. That is, until the folks at ESR stepped up and designed the first Geo Wallet with built-in tracking. Instead of worrying about having a card or tracking device IN your wallet, the ESR Geo Wallet is ITSELF a tracking device. It works with Apple’s Find My network, letting you see your wallet’s location in real time. When the wallet is nearby but still out of sight, you can also ‘ring’ your wallet thanks to a powerful speaker built into the Geo Wallet’s sleek design.

Here’s what I personally love about the Geo Wallet’s design. It’s futuristic if you think about the fact that your wallet has a built-in tracking device – but it doesn’t look futuristic. The wallet isn’t the kind you attach onto the back of your phone, it isn’t made of metal or carbon fiber, it doesn’t have fancy moving parts or a rugged design you can run over with your car – it’s as classic as it gets. The traditional bifold that the entire world loves and uses – except underneath the faux leather exterior is a fair bit of technology that makes the Geo Wallet so remarkable.

A full-fledged tracking chip with a Find My module allows you to track your Geo Wallet just the way you would an AirTag. It pairs with your phone, letting you see its location at all times. If you get separated from your wallet, you get an alert… and if you do end up losing your wallet or if someone steals it, the Find My app lets you track your Geo Wallet in real-time, seeing its location update on the fly. A speaker lets you ‘ring’ the wallet too, in case it’s nearby and you can’t find it.

Despite the electronics, the Geo Wallet measures a mere 15mm thick, making it a slick piece of EDC to add to your collection. It features a spacious cash compartment, four convenient card slots, two ID windows, and extra room for coins. You’ve got enough space to store up to 10 bills, multiple credit + ID cards, and 15 coins – talk about being super traditional!

The ESR Geo Wallet comes in 7 colors, all made from faux leather to keep things stylish yet eco-friendly. A built-in rechargeable battery allows the Geo Wallet to run for 5 months on a full charge… and unlike any other wallet, the exterior also features a magnetic contact point that lets you charge your wallet using ESR’s proprietary snap-on charger (which charges your Geo Wallet in under 2 hours). The ESR Geo Wallet is currently available on Kickstarter for $38 – quite a bargain for a wallet with its own Apple-compatible Find My tracker, no?
