    Is there something like a fitness bracelet without a display that one could wear? I already have an old school Casio digital watch, and I like to too much to replace it with a smartwatch.

      Mi band has a display, but it’s pretty slim and you could just leave it turned off. But a ring might be the better option for you.

      I have wanted a decent product in this category for YEARS now and sadly, there’s really not many options at all. The ring one that requires a damn subscription is laughably a non starter. What on earth.

      I rocked a Casio F-91W for years, then a Huawei smartwatch a couple years before getting a Garmin Instinct 2.

      Design is reminiscent of a casio digital, the display is always on and gets brighter if external light is shone on it, no touchscreen, contactless payment, a charge lasts me about 3 weeks.

      320€ is expensive but is exactly what I need from a smartwatch :)

        Check. I’ve been looking at something like that as well, but it comes with a $6/mo subscription model on up of the $370 price for the ring itself. The subscription model made me not want it anymore.
