A gadget you throw away when the battery runs out is a very dumb idea if you ask me.
What the hell? They are delaying their new watches left and right, cancel pre-orders because they ran out of parts, and now they’re doing this, just out of the blue?

It should be outlawed if you ask me. “Battery Life: Years of average use” What if it dies after a month? The warranty they offer is 30 days, meaning that this is pretty much meant to be junk.
Just get an old Sony MP3 recorder…
Oh wait, here’s the best thing. They acknowledge this in their FAQ and that’s one of their reasons:
You’d probably lose the charger before the battery runs out!
Idiots.
Genuinely, is this rage bait?
$100, non replaceable battery, does absolutely nothing besides stream audio recordings to an llm on your phone that is 100% guaranteed to produce a worthless error ridden transcript,
and my personal favorite,
Unlike recording notes with a phone or smartwatch, you don’t need both hands to create voice notes with the Index.
Is this a joke? Why do I need both hands to record a voice note with a phone?
Hey chatgpt, I accidentally made a product to solve a nonexistent problem. What should I say?

Why, obviously you need one hand to hold the earpiece to your ear, the other to tap the cradle and get the operator, whom you can ask to write something down for you. What a maroon.
One wonders why young people are so slow on the uptake these days, doesn’t one?
OR I can use a pen and paper for pennies.
Here is a one handed service that does all of the things this ring does except it also can charge itself. Oh and it coats $18
What are you, some kind of Luddite?
I’m practical I suppose. I have a tool that does this already cheaply, why do I need a product likely made by slaves in a sweat shop, with materials people are going to wars over, that will end up in a landfill because it broke or is deprecated in less than a few years?
Damn, I saw the headline, thought “Did someone finally…” But no, it’s not a YubiKey (or similar) in the form of a signet ring.
It’s a finger mounted microphone with a non are chargeable non-replaceable battery.
Yet another product for the “yeah this would be interesting if smartphones didn’t exist” pile (and funnily enough this one even requires one to even do anything)
No IoT is a win for me! I might buy it just for the fact that I can save notes and reminders locally on my phone. Just waiting to see if the app or a compatible one will be on F-droid…
