REVIEW | Rophie Salim Tact AI smart ring
A journalist reviews the Rophie Salim Tact AI smart ring, highlighting its health-tracking capabilities and battery life. The author notes the device's comfort and utility for monitoring sleep and stress compared to traditional smartwatches.
Why it matters
Smart rings represent a growing segment of the wearable health technology market, offering a less intrusive alternative to smartwatches.
I had been thinking about buying a smart ring ever since a good friend started using one to monitor her health. The device looked useful, but its price — more than P20,000 — made me hesitate.
I was therefore delighted when I was asked if I was interested in testing the new Rophie Salim Tact AI Smart Ring. Of course, I said yes.
Having turned 50 this year, I have become more conscious of the health problems commonly associated with aging. I was particularly interested in the ring’s ability to monitor indicators such as sleep, steps, stress levels, and heart rate. My aging Apple Watch was no longer as reliable as it used to be in tracking some of these metrics.
One of the first things I appreciated about the Rophie smart ring was its battery life. It can run for about seven days before needing a recharge.
