Ultrahuman Launches Ring Pro With 15-Day Battery Life as It Seeks U.S. Market Reentry After Patent Dispute
Ultrahuman has introduced the Ring Pro, its third-generation smart ring, as it works to restore its position in the U.S. market following a patent dispute with rival Oura. The Bengaluru-based wearable company said the new device delivers up to 15 days of battery life, a significant increase from the four to six days offered by its previous Ring Air model. Priced at $479, the Ring Pro will be available for pre-orders globally, excluding the United States, with shipments scheduled to begin in March.
Ultrahuman’s U.S. operations were disrupted in October 2025 after the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled in Oura’s favor in a patent case, blocking the company from importing new ring inventory into the country. The U.S. had represented about 45% of Ultrahuman’s approximately 700,000 daily active users worldwide. To address the ruling, Ultrahuman redesigned the Ring Pro to work around the disputed patent and submitted the device to U.S. Customs and Border Protection for clearance.
Despite the setback, the company reports an annualized revenue run rate of about $150 million and says it remains profitable, though margins may narrow due to litigation costs, tariffs, and redesign expenses. In addition to the hardware update, Ultrahuman unveiled Jade, a real-time biointelligence system that analyzes user health data to provide actionable recommendations. Jade will be available to all users without a subscription for now.
The Ring Pro features a redesigned heart-rate sensing system, a dual-core processor for improved data accuracy, storage for up to 250 days of health data, and compatibility with a new Pro Charger supporting Qi wireless charging. The company says women now make up 68% of its user base, reflecting strong adoption of its women’s health features. As global smart ring shipments continue to grow, Ultrahuman aims to strengthen its competitive position against market leader Oura.
