We like the idea of a 24/7 activity and sleep tracker keeping us honest about our workouts, heart rate and sleep (or lack thereof), but we’ve never been a huge fan of the packages they came in. Motiv Ring changes all that because, as the name implies, it’s a ring. The connected ring is available in a Rose Gold or Slate Gray finish and is built out of ultralight titanium. It weighs next to nothing, measures 8mm x 2.5mm, is waterproof up to 5ATM and has a battery that lasts up to 5 days. That’s all well and good, but what does it actually track? Active minutes and heart rate, calories burned, distance, activity types, steps, sleep duration and resting heart rate. The card based rewards and tracking make staying motivated easy, and the connected app will even adjust goals if you miss a workout. Motiv Ring ships Spring 2017.
