Aina’s smart ring has a screen, a joystick and a mic so you can talk to AI agents
Aina’s ring starts at $399 on preorder, with shipping planned for January 2027 and a later price of $499.
The ring lets users dictate notes, prompt AI agents, set reminders and take calls through its built-in speaker. Its screen shows notifications and app controls, while the joystick and gestures trigger actions on a Mac or phone. TechCrunch’s reviewer used it to reply to notifications and control Apple TV, but said unfinished software made its place in daily use hard to judge.
