Amazfit Helio smart ring review: Fitness tracking from your finger
Smart rings have always intrigued me, promising a discreet and comfortable way to track health and fitness metrics without the bulk of a traditional smartwatch. Over the past few years I have tested a variety of options, eager to find one that strikes the perfect balance between functionality, design, and price.
Now, a major player in the smartwatch world has entered the smart ring arena. Zepp Health, known for its popular line of Amazfit smartwatches, has released the $299 Helio Ring, its first foray in this space. As a longtime fan of the company’s products, I was eager to test out the product.
Zepp Health promises that the Helio will offer insights that can help users improve their health habits by tracking a variety of metrics including heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep patterns, and activity. And I must say, it doesn’t disappoint.
Here is my review after about two weeks of testing, and let me just say that its exercise tracking features are what really set this ring apart. Let’s dive straight in.

    Is that feature always working for you? I bought balance yesterday and it keeps crashing. So it works fine and then suddenly I am getting "sorry I can't understand you" for hours before the feature is back and working again. So frustrating.

    I couldn’t agree more. Especially since the Tactix Delta provides ultra reliable and consistent performance and it’s the 2019 hardware and sensors.

Just no motivation for the poor layout. I now feel my Epix is no better than a cheap timex since I stopped using the connect App. I am still happy with Garmin golf and the club sensors. Hope they dont mess that up also. Was going to purchase the R10 but now on hold to see if Garmin makes a mends with the many who hate 5.0. Crazy there is no response from them.

    Thanks for an honest review. This is the only video I've found thus far that shares these concerns. Longtime athlete here, Garmin since 2010. This video and customer posts on the Garmin Android / IOS forums, Reddit, X aka Twitter, Meta aka Facebook, Instagram, blogs are all saying why the 5.0 design fails and the previous 4.77.1 is better. Garmin went all in on this change announcing at CES early in the year. Imagine there's a good deal of saving face going on here.
