The smart ring market is heating up, with Ultrahuman challenging Oura’s dominance. The newly unveiled Ultrahuman Ring Pro boasts a significantly extended battery life – up to 15 days – and expanded data storage compared to its competitor, the Oura Ring. This new device aims to appeal to health and fitness enthusiasts seeking detailed biometric tracking without the constant need for recharging. The competition between these two companies is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in wearable technology, offering consumers more options for monitoring their well-being.
While the Ultrahuman Ring Pro is launching globally, the United States is notably excluded at this time. Here’s due to a recent patent infringement case brought by Oura, which resulted in a block on imports of Ultrahuman’s previous Ring Air model by the International Trade Commission (ITC) in October 2025, as reported by Forbes. Ultrahuman is actively working to resolve the issue and bring the Ring Pro to the U.S. Market, stating they hope to share positive news soon. “Ring Pro is not available in the United States at launch,” a spokesperson for Ultrahuman confirmed. “This is an exciting market for us where we have a huge community of passionate customers.”
Battery Life and Data Storage: A Clear Advantage
One of the most significant improvements with the Ring Pro is its battery performance. It offers up to 15 days of use on a single charge, a substantial leap over the 5-8 days typically offered by the Oura Ring 4. Even in a “Turbo” mode, the Ring Pro still delivers 12 days of battery life. The included Pro Charging Case extends this further, providing up to 45 days of power and the ability to store an impressive 250 days of ring data. This extended storage capacity is a major differentiator, allowing users to maintain a comprehensive record of their health metrics without frequent data syncing. The charging case itself is wirelessly rechargeable and includes a “find my ring” feature via the companion app.
Enhanced Sensors and Bio-Intelligence Software
Ultrahuman has redesigned the heart rate sensor array in the Ring Pro, aiming for improved reliability, particularly during sleep tracking. This update may also be a strategic move to navigate existing patents held by Oura, according to reports. The Ring Pro also features a dual-core processor, promising faster and more accurate data processing.
Alongside the hardware upgrades, Ultrahuman is introducing Jade, a new bio-intelligence software powered by Large Language Models (LLM). Jade analyzes user data to provide personalized insights, including the potential detection of heart rhythm irregularities and other health concerns before they become serious. Jade is available in two versions: a standard offering and a more in-depth analysis option.
Design and Availability
The Ultrahuman Ring Pro maintains a sleek and minimalist design, constructed from titanium and available in sizes 5 to 14. Users can choose from three color options: Bionic Gold, Space Silver, and Raw Titanium. The ring’s design is familiar to those accustomed to smart ring aesthetics.
The Ultrahuman Ring Pro is scheduled for release in March and will be priced at $479, as reported by T3. This places it firmly in the premium segment of the smart ring market. Pre-orders are currently open, and the device will be available in the aforementioned ring sizes and color options.
The extended battery life and increased data storage capacity of the Ultrahuman Ring Pro represent a significant step forward in smart ring technology. While the U.S. Launch remains uncertain, the device’s features position it as a strong competitor to the Oura Ring 4, particularly for users prioritizing long-term data tracking and minimal charging requirements.
Ultrahuman plans to continue refining the Jade software and expanding its capabilities, with further updates expected throughout 2026. The company is also focused on securing U.S. Market access, with an anticipated announcement regarding availability in the coming months.
