Best for: The lowest-priced RingConn with core sleep trends and no subscription
RingConn's budget no-subscription ring keeps the core sleep and health trends with up to 10 days of battery, but drops apnea monitoring and the charging case.
The Gen 2 Air is the least expensive of RingConn's three rings and keeps the basics: sleep stages, round-the-clock heart rate, blood oxygen and HRV, night-time respiratory rate, skin temperature, stress, steps, calories, workouts and VO2 max. RingConn states there is no subscription. It is 2 mm thick, weighs 2.5 to 4 g by size and is rated for up to 10 days, charging in about 90 minutes on a dock. The savings come from clear omissions: no sleep-apnea pattern monitoring, vibration alerts, vascular trends or charging case. RingConn sizes are not standard ring sizes, so the free sizing kit is part of the purchase process.

Editor's deep dive
The short answer
RingConn Gen 2 Air is the budget RingConn: no subscription, core sleep and health trends, a 2 mm profile and up to 10 days of battery. It does not include sleep-apnea pattern monitoring, vibration alerts, vascular trends or the portable charging case found higher in the range.
Choose it when the lowest entry price and long battery matter more than RingConn's advanced signals. The Gen 2 is the step up for apnea-pattern monitoring and a charging case; Gen 3 adds vibration alerts, vascular trends and the longest stated battery ceiling.
It is the least expensive RingConn and keeps the core sleep and health trends.
RingConn supports iOS 17+ and Android 10+.
RingConn does not include that feature on Gen 2 Air.
Battery is long, but this model has a dock rather than a charging case.
Gen 2 Air is a deliberately reduced model, not a disguised flagship. Its value rests on keeping the core tracking and subscription-free app while making the omitted features explicit.
