Want to monitor your activity, sleep or fertility but don’t want to wear a bulky fitness tracker?
Or do you like the idea of being able to pay for lunch or your train ticket without having to get your purse out? The world of wearable tech is
moving fast, and that means there’s an ever- growing range of smart jewellery crammed with of all sorts of clever gadgets – from stylish rings
and pendants through to leather bracelets and watches to choose.
“Over the last couple of years there has been a significant shift in the wearable tech category from fitness to wellness. From sleep and
hormone trackers to stress and mental health monitors, the desire for a more holistic approach to wellbeing has driven innovation in tech, and this new breed of wearables have risen to the forefront.” But if you’ve never bought a piece of smart jewellery before, where should you start?
Firstly, what do you want your gadget to do? Do you want a simple step counter or a contactless payment device, or do you want your wearable
to give you reams of data about your health, wellbeing and stress levels?
You also need to think about when you want to wear it. For example, you probably don’t want to wear a sports- style fitness bracelet if you’re all dressed up for a night out. Armes adds that you could “take time to evaluate how seamlessly it can fit into your everyday life” when choosig your accessory.
With this mind, we tested a variety of smart
jewellery for women and scored them on
appearance, battery life and functionality.
Here’s our verdict.
