I have a giant Meh, but I’m sure some people will like this idea.

Wait, it’s single use?
Yes. We know this sounds a bit odd, but in this particular circumstance we believe it’s the best solution to the given set of constraints. Other smart rings like Oura cost $250+ and need to be charged every few days. We didn’t want to build a device like that. Before the battery runs out, the Pebble app notifies and asks if you’d like to order another ring.
$100 for a finger mic with a giant ugly button you can’t charge and return for recycling.
No thanks.
yerp, ewaste from day one.
“The battery lasts for up to years of average use” means it maybe lasts 2 years and then it’s e-waste
