Ultrahuman finally has a smart ring back on the U.S. market, and it’s the Ring Pro, the new model with the feature-packed charging case. Pre-orders are now open, with early bird prices starting at $349. The regular price will be $479 for the ring plus case.
The ring will begin shipping May 15. The company is using a tiered model for early bird pricing, where the price bumps up after a certain number of rings are sold. Here’s the schedule:
-
$349 — first 1,000 orders ($130 off)
-
$389 — next 2,000 orders ($90 off)
-
$429 — next 3,000 orders ($50 off)
-
$449 — until pre-orders close.
Ultrahuman’s smart rings have been off the U.S. market since October 2025, due to legal action by Oura. As I detailed here, Oura sued several other smart ring makers over patent infringement and won a judgment by the U.S. International Trade Commission. As a result, most other smart ring companies had to leave the U.S. market or reach a deal with Oura. Ultrahuman found a third option—continuing to develop a ring they already had in the works, betting that the ITC would rule its design is different enough that it does not infringe Oura’s patent.
That bet seems to have paid off. U.S. Customs and Border Protection has officially signed off on the new design, allowing it to be sold here. Ultrahuman’s older designs, like the Ring Air I reviewed last year, are still banned.
What’s new with the Ultrahuman Ring Pro
I wrote more about the Ring Pro here. It’s got a faster processor with “on-chip machine learning,” a 15-day battery life, and the ability to hold 250 days of data if you’re unable to sync your ring for extended periods. The physical shape is similar to the Ring Air (no sensor bumps, but there is a flattened area at the bottom of the interior), and it has break points for easier removal of the ring in an emergency.
The cleverest feature of the Ring Pro is its charging case, which can store data, flash the firmware, and deliver haptic alerts. It also has a speaker for alarms and for sounding when you use the “find my case” feature. The charger can charge wirelessly.
Ultrahuman has since announced that you’ll have the option to buy the ring packaged with the charging case for $479, or with just a “mini charger” (presumably similar to the Ring Air’s charger) for $399. The case will be available separately for $100.
