Key Features
Barely there titanium
The ring weighs about 3 grams. After the first night we pretty much forgot it was on.
Readiness and HRV
It tracks heart rate variability and sleep stages, then hands you a recovery score in the morning.
Week long battery
We got close to 7 days per charge. A full top up takes around 1.4 hours.
No subscription
None of your sleep or recovery data sits behind a monthly paywall, which isnt the case with Oura.
Our Experience
We wore the Helio Ring for two weeks straight, including through a couple of hard leg days. The readiness score actually tracked how we felt. The morning after a brutal session it dropped into the 50s and told us to take it easy, and our legs agreed.
Sleep tracking is the strong part here. It caught an afternoon nap we never logged, and the deep sleep numbers matched how rested we felt. Heart rate stayed close to a chest strap during easy cardio, though it drifts once you push into sprint territory. Most rings do.
The titanium feels nicer than the price suggests. Sizing matters a lot though. Order the sizing kit first, because a loose fit throws off the sensor and you end up with gaps in your data.

Final Verdict
Want recovery and sleep data without paying every month? The Helio Ring is an easy pick at this price. Heart rate during sprints isnt perfect, but for tracking how ready your body is each morning, it does the job and stays out of your way.
