☆ Apple won't launch a smart ring, says Oura CEO: 'It's hard to do'

LISBON — Apple will not introduce a smart ring, the CEO of health-tech firm Oura told CNBC, despite speculation the iPhone giant may be considering a move into this product category. Samsung's smart ring debut earlier this year has put the product firmly in the spotlight, with one analyst predicting earlier this year that Apple could launch its own smart ring in 2026. But Tom Hale, CEO of Oura — which has been developing smart rings since the company was established in 2013 — said he doesn't think Apple will enter the space. "I think they're probably keeping a close eye on Samsung and a close eye on us, but it's hard to do this product category right." Under CEO Tim Cook, Apple has put a large focus on health applications through the Apple Watch and related services.

watch nowLISBON — Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales slammed X, formerly known as Twitter, after its takeover by Elon Musk, saying the social media service is losing users and has been "overrun by trolls and lunatics."

The spat between the two goes back to last year when Musk alleged Wikipedia has "a non-trivial left-wing bias."

Kaitlin Wichmann is an American expat living and working in Lisbon, Portugal. She said the country's focus on work-life balance has been a positive change from the US. When I lived in the US, most of my coworkers didn't even take lunch or if we did it was a working lunch. When I'm interviewing with a potential client or agency, I'm always upfront about living in Lisbon and working Portuguese hours. Obviously, it's easier for me because I'm self-employed — a lot of my friends work for American companies and it's much harder to do.
