In reply to Peter M Becola. I have the same issue with the green triangle and inoperability... they want me to exchange it for $200. Any other options?

Comment on Launching soon: Muse Ring One, the smart ring that monitors blood pressure by Marko Maslakovic

I’d go for RingConn. No subscription fee, accurate stats. https://gadgetsandwearables.com/2023/06/17/ringconn-smart-ring-review/

Its good for recovery stats. Good for steps count. Not good for running and other exercise – no smart ring is. The positioning on finger makes it a challenge to capture heart rate at high intensity exercise.

What do you think is the best ring to get in the next month or months to wear? I am looking for one like the muse ring one, espcecially like the fact it has not monthly or yearly subscription fee. That adds up over time. I want to track sleep and excersise primarily. The rest of the health benefit are bonuses.

Comment on Your Garmin not counting steps accurately? Here’s the fix. by Gwynne Hampto

So dissatisfied w/ Garmin Venu 2+ Hubby & I have had them for 6 months. On numerous identical test days he gets 7000+ thousands! – more steps than I do. We switched watches twice, he still out paced me by similar amounts. Tried changing my stride length. Nothing works. Waist of $$$$!

In reply to Giuseppe. I haven't looked into it in detail - but the one obvious difference is that GT3 Pro has a ECG sensor.

Great article, Marko.
And what would you say about Huawei Watch GT 4 vs GT 3 Pro?
In your opinion, is it a comparison that makes sense?
My story: my GT2 is dead, I was thinking of getting a GT3 pro, but the release of the GT4 confused my mind.
