Summary
Casio’s new CRW-H001M-8 adds continuous heart-rate, blood-oxygen, body-temperature and sleep tracking to its ring watch line, turning the 2024 CRW-001 from a display novelty into a health wearable.
At 19 grams, the ring is far heavier than most smart rings, and that matters most for sleep tracking because users must keep it on overnight for the feature to work.
Three sizes—9, 10 and 11—replace the original one-size design with plastic spacers, a change that also helps the optical sensors maintain direct skin contact.
Priced at 1,990 yuan, or about $294, the silver-only model launches first in mainland China with Bluetooth syncing to the AIZO Ring app, 4-6 days of battery life and China-only after-sales support.
The release pushes Casio deeper into a niche it has expanded over 19 months, while undercutting Oura on upfront price even as software quality remains an open question.
