Your smart ring or smartwatch dilemma has a $50 answer

Rogbid has launched the Fusion, a smart ring watch that’s trying to solve a familiar problem, do you buy a smartwatch for the screen, or a smart ring for comfort. At $49.99 on Rogbid’s site, it’s priced to be a low-stress experiment if you’re curious about both.

The core idea is simple. Fusion is a tiny smartwatch you can wear on your wrist, then convert into a ring-style wearable by swapping the included straps.

A tiny smartwatch by design

Fusion leans hard into small and light. Rogbid lists a 0.49-inch OLED display, a body measuring 20.6 x 21 x 8.2 mm, and a weight around 14 grams, which puts it closer to novelty-sized watches than the chunky budget smartwatch norm.

That size invites comparisons to Casio’s G-SHOCK ring watch, but Fusion’s pitch is everyday convenience. You get a screen you can actually glance at, without committing to a full-size watch case.

Fitness basics, plus durability claims

For a sub-$50 wearable, the feature list is ambitious. Rogbid says Fusion supports more than 100 sports modes and tracks common health and activity metrics, including heart rate, blood oxygen, steps, distance, and sleep monitoring. If you’re in the market for specifically fitness trackers, check out what’s out now.

It also leans on durability language. Rogbid rates it for 5 ATM water resistance, and claims it can operate in temperatures from about -20°C to 60°C. That’s a lot to promise in a tiny shell, so real-world feedback will matter once more people have it on their finger and wrist.

From wrist to finger

The standout here is the swap. With the nylon wristband, Fusion behaves like a compact smartwatch. Switch to the Milanese-style ring strap and it becomes a smart ring-style wearable, offered in black, silver, or gold.

On connectivity, Fusion pairs over Bluetooth with Android and iOS, and Rogbid claims about five days of typical battery life, or up to eight days on standby. The key limitation is also clear, it doesn’t support Bluetooth calling, so it’s not aiming to replace a watch that doubles as a phone accessory.

If you’re shopping for a true smartwatch, that missing calling feature may be a dealbreaker. If you want a cheap way to test the smart ring watch form factor, Fusion’s price and convertible design are the reason to pay attention.
