I'm a smart ring expert, and these are the Black Friday deals I'd recommend

Being T3's in-house smart ring (and wearable) expert means I tested and reviewed many of the best smart rings launched in recent years. The market is getting saturated, which might make it hard for the uninitiated to find the best Black Friday deals. Fear not, as I scoured the internet to find the best offers on these nimble wearables.

The headliner certainly is the Oura Ring Gen 3 deal, which knocks off £200 of the ring's RRP if you buy the most expensive colourway, which is Rose Gold. Other colourways are also on offer and are often cheaper. Samsung's Galaxy Ring is also cheaper for Black Friday, although not much, so it might only be worth it for Samsung users.

The Ultrahuman Ring Air, Amazfit Helio Ring, and RingConn Smart Ring Gen 1 are all on sale, too, which is excellent news. These wearables offer subscription-fee-free companion apps and are also cheaper than their big-ticket rivals, even at full price. The Helio Ring takes the crown as the cheapest model, thanks to Amazfit already dropping the price months ago, on which you also get a discount now.
