RingConn has announced the RingConn Gen 3, a new smart ring capable of tracking blood vessel conditions, sleep, and more.
At a product launch event held in Tokyo, Shizuka Arakawa, who has been appointed as the brand ambassador, took the stage.
RingConn Gen 3 Product Launch Event Held!
The RingConn smart ring allows users to manage their blood vessel conditions, sleep, and more.
On Tuesday, June 16, 2026, the company held a product launch event for the new RingConn Gen 3 in Tokyo.
Benjamin Lin, Head of Global Sales Channels, and Ryusei Kimura from Acalie Co., Ltd., the Japanese distributor of RingConn, took the stage at the presentation.
They explained the current situation where the global wearable health market is projected to exceed $500 billion by 2035, noting that health awareness is shifting from "treatment" to "prevention."
Among wearable devices, smart rings are drawing attention as next-generation devices that allow users to comfortably manage health data 24 hours a day.
Riding this tailwind, RingConn achieved a year-on-year growth of approximately 300%, with cumulative sales surpassing 800,000 units.
Based on the philosophy that "health management should be more natural," the company develops products by utilizing sensor technology and AI.
New Smart Ring RingConn Gen 3 Announced!
The RingConn Gen 3 features a Blood Vessel Health Trend function that tracks daily trends in blood vessel condition based on baseline values measured once a month with a blood pressure monitor.
Taking into account changes in sleep, stress, activity levels, and other factors, it visualizes daily changes across three levels.
Vibration Alerts to Notify of High Heart Rate, Early Signs of Headaches, and More
It features new Vibration Alerts that notify users of bodily changes before they notice them themselves.
It alerts users through vibrations regarding changes such as high heart rates, early signs of headaches, or prolonged sitting.
Continuous Monitoring of Over 60 Health Metric Variations
It constantly analyzes over 60 health metric variations 24 hours a day.
By continuously measuring heart rate, heart rate variability, stress, sleep, skin temperature, and more, the AI provides easy-to-understand advice on health status.
The device acquires vital data at intervals of 5 minutes or less, and measures blood oxygen at 2-second intervals during sleep respiratory monitoring.
No Subscription Required! Free to Use
The app does not just record health data; it also allows users to share data with family members or partners.
They emphasized that while other companies' smart ring health management features require monthly fees, RingConn's major appeal is that it is subscription-free and can be used for free.
Comfortable Fit Crafted Based on Ergonomics
It weighs 2.5 to 3.5g, with a width of 6.8mm and a thickness of 2.3mm.
In addition to being light and thin, it adopts a design focused on an ergonomic shape.
By rounding the inside and shaping the outside slightly, fingers are less likely to interfere with each other, allowing for comfortable wear over long periods.
The author tried wearing it, and the fit was indeed excellent.
Since wearable devices are not sustainable if they feel uncomfortable, this might be the area to place the most importance on.
The material is titanium, and the color variations are as follows:
- Brushed Silver
- Brushed Rose Gold
- Future Silver
- Royal Gold
- Matte Black
It will be available in 10 sizes ranging from 6 to 15.
With an IP68 / 10 ATM (100m water depth) waterproof specification, you can swim or bathe while wearing the ring.
Long Battery Life Lasting Up to 14 Days
The battery life lasts 10 to 12 days with vibration on, and 11 to 14 days with vibration off.
By using the dedicated case, it can last up to 150 days.
Talk Session with Brand Ambassador Shizuka Arakawa
Professional figure skater Shizuka Arakawa, who was appointed as the brand ambassador for RingConn Gen 3, took the stage for a talk session.
Saiga NAKThe following is translated from Japanese.
— How has your mindset regarding health management and condition management changed from your competitive days to the present?
Shizuka Arakawa: Although I have adjusted it depending on my age and circumstances, the practice of always keeping track of my own condition has remained unchanged.
Skating is integrated into my life as a barometer of my condition, and I always want to be aware of how good or bad it is.
With the RingConn Gen 3, I was surprised to see that even sleep rhythms (REM, non-REM, light sleep/waking) are visualized in detail.
I truly feel that by cross-referencing my own sensations with the data, I can grasp my condition more accurately.
— After actually using the product, are there any features or realizations that left a particularly strong impression?
Shizuka Arakawa: I was amazed that even without inputting anything, everything from my warm-up practices to exercise intensity is accurately logged into data.
Since almost all of my actions are recorded precisely as numerical values, it is incredibly reassuring to be able to go back to periods when my condition was great and reflect on "what kind of lifestyle I was leading at that time."
I have been using it for less than a week, but the surprise and fun of having my daily rhythms and trends visualized in such detail has already led me to recommend it to many of my friends.
I also find it appealing that there is no need to take it off while showering or exercising, allowing it to blend naturally into daily life.
Saiga NAK— Could you share the message you would like to convey through RingConn in the future?
Shizuka Arakawa: In today's information-overloaded world, I have come to realize deeply through my experience of skating since the age of five that knowing yourself is the most important thing.
I feel that RingConn is exactly the item that supports this process of "knowing yourself."
Features that make you aware of yourself during casual moments of daily life, such as alerts that notify you when you have been sitting too long, have just been a series of surprises since I actually started wearing it.
I would definitely love for many people to adopt it as an item to get to know themselves.
Talk Session with Health Scientist and Doctor of Medical Science Yuka Honda
Next, Yuka Honda (@YukaHonda_), a health scientist and Doctor of Medical Science who is also active as "Venus Honda," took the stage.
— What are your thoughts on the health challenges that Japanese people currently face?
Yuka Honda: Many women in their 30s and 40s suffer from vague, distressing symptoms such as disrupted sleep, fatigue, and menstrual irregularities, but there are not a few cases where the cause remains unknown even after undergoing medical checkups.
Female hormones peak in the 20s and 30s and then drop sharply, increasing the risk of pre-menopausal and menopausal symptoms, sleep disorders, osteoporosis, and even metabolic syndrome.
Data from 30,000 individuals shows that low body temperatures in the 35°C range are frequently observed among those who skip breakfast, do not exercise, or have diets heavily biased toward vegetables. Connections to damaged hair, anemia, and menstrual irregularities have also been confirmed.
By recording and visualizing daily bodily changes with a smart ring, I hope it can serve as an opportunity for people to notice the causes behind these "vague" discomforts.
Saiga NAK— What role do you think smart rings will play in health management going forward?
Yuka Honda: The greatest value of a smart ring is that it blends into daily life and continuously collects data 24 hours a day.
Multifaceted metrics such as sleep, skin temperature, stress, and blood vessel health trends are recorded. For example, if your sleep score plummets from 80 to 26, you can reflect the next day by thinking, "I need to get a good sleep tonight." The data directly connects to concrete awareness.
Furthermore, unlike the calendar method, the menstrual cycle prediction feature is based on the actual condition of the body, so I believe it will play an especially significant role in women's health management.
