Amazfit Helio Ring (2024)

$150 and a real stress sensor, but it comes in three sizes and lasts four days.

$149.99

Overall score 6.5/10

Pros

  • + $149.99 with no subscription — the cheapest ring here from a manufacturer with a real wearables business behind it
  • + An actual EDA sensor for stress rather than an HRV-derived guess
  • + 10ATM water rating matches rings costing twice as much
  • + Zepp Aura Premium is bundled, not upsold

Cons

  • Three sizes, full stop — 8, 10 and 12. This is the single biggest reason to buy something else
  • Four-day battery is the worst here by a wide margin; RingConn's cheapest ring does ten
  • Amazfit's own page says no USB-C cable is in the box
  • Data is most useful if you already own an Amazfit watch; standalone the Zepp app is thinner than Oura's
  • The Helio Ring 2 has been confirmed for the second half of 2026, so this is end-of-cycle hardware

Amazfit Helio Ring (2024) review: what the specs say

$150 and a real stress sensor, but it comes in three sizes and lasts four days. At $149.99, Amazfit's 2024 model sits among the cheapest we cover — the smart Rings we compare run from $149.99 to $479. It scores 6.5/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Subscription Freedom at 9.5/10 — how much of the ring keeps working with no recurring payment — the category's defining trap. The weakest is Sizing & Fit at 3.0/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: three sizes, full stop — 8, 10 and 12. This is the single biggest reason to buy something else; and four-day battery is the worst here by a wide margin; RingConn's cheapest ring does ten. Every specification on this page comes from Amazfit's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.

Full Specifications

Battery Life (claimed)4 days
Battery, In PracticeAmazfit publishes 'up to 4 days' — the shortest claim in this comparison, and it is the headline figure, so continuous SpO2 and temperature sensing pull it down from there. Wireless charging takes about 1 hour 40 minutes.
SubscriptionNone. Amazfit states no subscriptions are required, and Zepp Aura Premium (sleep sounds, detailed sleep reports, AI chat) is included free rather than sold separately.
3-Year Cost of Ownership149.99 $
Sizes OfferedThree sizes only — 8 (24mm), 10 (25.7mm) and 12 (27.3mm). If your finger falls between them, there is no ring for you; every rival here offers seven to twelve sizes.
Sizing KitNot offered in the way rivals do it — with only three sizes Amazfit publishes inner diameters instead. That removes the kit wait but makes a poor fit far more likely.
Returns & Size ExchangeNot published on Amazfit's US product page; the store's standard terms apply and should be checked before ordering.
Measured vs InferredPPG optical sensor for heart rate and blood oxygen, plus a genuine EDA (electrodermal activity) sensor for stress — one of the few rings here where 'stress' has a dedicated sensor behind it rather than being inferred from HRV alone. Readiness and sleep scores are still derived.
FDA ClearanceNone published. General wellness product; the EDA sensor is not a cleared medical measurement.
Water Rating10ATM
Phone SupportiOS and Android through the Zepp app
Charger & Data ExportWireless charging dock, and Amazfit's own US page states the USB-C cable is not included in the box — you supply your own. Export: not published by the manufacturer.
ConnectivityBluetooth (version not published by Amazfit)
MaterialSkin-friendly titanium alloy
Warranty12 months
