I attended CES too -- and given Covid interruptions, it is a company worth mentioning. We have connected the sensor to our "group application" so we can collect data simultaneously to over 100 participants at one time). It's only been available for about a year I think so not "new" but a first and new to many.
Thank you for your report on CES. I found it very interesting and enjoyed it. Again, I am thankful we have similar interests. You do a great job on your channel.
I love the smart ring companion, I've suggested this to OURA for years, I've been an OURA user since 2018 and having read Matthew Walkers book "Why We Sleep" and listened to countless other researchers, I've wondered why OURA, Garmin, Apple, Fitbit, and any other sleep wearable never had a nightstand companion to measure all of the things we know affect sleep such as; 1. Noise spikes relative to a persons ambient noise floor 2. Light measures and light spectrum 3. Room temperature throughout the night 4. Individual sounds such as snoring and breathing 5. Air Quality I'm sure you can think of more things to measure, and all of them can find correlations over time thanks to Ai. Hell, you can make an argument for an entire sleep ecosystem with a temp controlled smart mattress like Eight Sleep or Ooler. In case you're wondering if I'm obsessed with this topic, I'm not, I'm just a guy who discovered late in life that sleep is every bit as important as diet and exercise.
I honestly believe Garmin is in the throws of becoming the next Motorola or Sony, or one of many past tech giants that were once the leaders of their category and positioned to stay there but were so full of themselves they believed they could dictate the needs of the fitness world rather than respond to demand. I hope I'm wrong but I see Apple surpassing them in the next few years for the sports and fitness wearable consumer. Garmin is so hyper focused on run/bike/swim that they're not only missing the freight train coming their way, they're ignoring the warnings.
If Apple could add a week or more of battery life and more useful health metrics out of the box they’d be competing. Right now I see them almost as entirely different tools for different jobs. It’ll be interesting to see how things shake out!
I agree@@ChaseTheSummit but I see them moving in the direction that will allow third party software integration to allow individual customization to their watch lineup. The hardware is already there, but yes not ready for prime time just yet. I'm going to wear my Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar until either Garmin or Apple give me a product that give me the feature I need. the crazy thing is that Garmin already has everything I need, they just haven't configured it a way that I can use.
Time will show but two major advantages for Garmin are 1. Battery i really like watch that lasts at least few days on one charge. 2. All the sport metrics in one place. No need to install 3rd party apps. You open the one app and have all insight.
I agree, but it's also a simple add-on for Apple and there are so many iPhone users it just makes sense. Garmin doesn't seem interested at all, they think they can dictate to the fitness world what is important rather than respond to the demand by consumers. I hope they wise up because I love my Garmin, have been a Garmin athlete for more than 20 years, I just don't see them doing anything beyond catering to the run/bike/swim community@@pjlehtim
The sweat monitor sounds interesting beyond its use for the usual exercise applications. I’ve encountered issues during long, intense days on track (motorcycle) in arid settings such as high desert country, with or without extreme heat, and despite trying to keep ahead of the game by drinking plenty of commercial electrolyte mix as well as plain water. If a device and app could monitor the rate and specific elements lost and come up with a schedule of how much to drink, and when, it could prove very helpful.
This BeOne device actually track specific electrolyte lloss rate and total quantity, and the algorithm provide specific individual advices for hydration. There has been big questions between armband or patches, and it appears that armband is a bit safer for long effort and future device evolutions (adding new electrolyte).
I have never tried a bone conduction headset that sounded even halfway decent. Like... not even good enough for podcast. And I think you'd like all the benefits that come with with light. I've seen a lot of legit data coming out on that technology
Enduro 2 is a pretty niche watch and I suspect not a top seller for Garmin so they don't offer a ton of colors. However, you can add any 26mm quick fit band to the watch and customize it that way.
hey Chase...i have 6X Pro for about a year or so....but now it's obsolete, not getting any firmware updates etc....i want to go a step down or something....which Garmin for me, 265? So it will be supported for 2-3 years? I like GARMIN CONNECT.....or should i just throw that away and go with PACE 3? Thank you.
The 6X is still pretty relevant and not obsolete in any way. No, you won't receive new features but it will continue to work with Garmin Connect for many years to come. That said, if you want some of the newer features like an OLED display, new HR sensor, and some of the new wellness stuff like sleep coach the Forerunner 265 or the Venu 3 are great options. The Venu 3 leans more towards the "wellness/fitness" side of the things where the 265 leans towards running specifically. Neither have full mapping like your Fenix if that's something you care about. The Pace 3 is great, but it's not quite on the same level of Garmin if you care about wellness tools. For a dedicated running watch though, it's probably the best budget option. Hope that helps.

That was very interesting,I know you enjoyed being there,just like you,I would go to the Garmin display first

Thanx, good to see triatlon Shoks headset - i realy wanted that
Interesting stuff. Thanks. I love gadgets. Seems like there weren’t that many stand out new products, at least from the fitness side.
CES is a weird place. It’s SO big so it’s easy to miss certain things. I learned a lot to apply next year!

Apple is in the fitness world only to sell their phones. It's a tough sell for many people having to buy an iPhone to be able to use fitness devices.

What a cool experience that must've been! 🔥🔥
Great video! I find everything about health gadgets interesting. Love your channel - keep up the good work
Thanks. Very interesting to get this overview! 🎉
The Sennheiser MOMENTUM Sport HR earbuds Powered by Polar were quite cool! 😎
I must have missed them!
I really want Garmin to make a ring Soni could finally track my sleep.
Or, if they would play nice with Withings.

Nix Bio Sensor has been out for awhile and does this stuff is it correct? No idea.
This BeOne device actually track specific electrolyte lloss rate and total quantity, and the algorithm provide specific individual advices for hydration. There has been big questions between armband or patches, and it appears that armband is a bit safer for long effort and future device evolutions (adding new electrolyte).
Hope you had a fun trip buddy. Keep me posted about next year. 👌
Thank you. All interesting.
Current times reminds me of the 80s. Cybertruck, vr headsets, a lot of the stuff at ces.
Great coverage, thank you!
You didn't mention Core Body Temperature -- really important wearable!
It’s great but it’s been around for a while so not super new.
Great review. Thanks for sharing.
The health tracking is getting more and more interesting and potentially could provide a basis for new investigations into diet and fitness
More information about continuous blood pressure it would be great
great video 👊👊👊 waiting for Fenix 8👊 🇧🇷
omg the display on that power station was dirty..lol i dont think i will ever touch it.. :) nice video ,,thank you :)
I think that was a protective film. But yes, lots of fingers at CES!
@@ChaseTheSummit yeah I know what you mean 😊
The prices of most new tech are getting out of hand…
Keep in mind this is bleeding edge stuff so MSRP will seem high. I suspect once most of this stuff makes it to the market it will be discounted.
Ooh we may finally get a minority report UI.
Those battery packs must be responsible for so many back injuries!!
I have never tried a bone conduction headset that sounded even halfway decent. Like... not even good enough for podcast. And I think you'd like all the benefits that come with with light. I've seen a lot of legit data coming out on that technology
Did you see the Velia smart ring? Supposedly it also measures blood pressure.
Must have missed that!
Wish I could visit 😅 Did you happen to pass by Sennheiser and check out their new Polar based sports earbuds?
I totally missed the Sennheiser booth! This place is way too big!
Overused phrase but
Garmin nylon band on the Enduro 2.... why don't they have different colours?
Enduro 2 is a pretty niche watch and I suspect not a top seller for Garmin so they don't offer a ton of colors. However, you can add any 26mm quick fit band to the watch and customize it that way.

top reply, thanks :) will keep using 6x pro, it works :)@@ChaseTheSummit
👍👍
They are either unique, or the are not.. they cannot be very unique.. it's an absolute
Is it sarcastic to thing Apple might get their next ban in x years for stealing MudraBand's idea? xD
Ha! Time will tell! I hope they have a good patent.
3rd
"Unfortunately, I'm a guy so I couldn't test it." why did man say it like that
I don’t understand your comment. 🤔
@@ChaseTheSummitit’s meant to be funny for young people, love ur vids btw!
Well, you COULD put on the sports bra and test it.... just saying.😂
I'll give it a shot!
I feel like the snoring thing is a scam
I intend to find out.
Why does this guy always sound like Sylvester the cat ?😮😮😮
Why do you continue to watch my stuff if you don’t like how I sound?
@@ChaseTheSummit because RUclips is recommending your video to me .... I guess I have to block your channel
@@djzrobzombie2813 you don’t need to watch nor comment. You’re just a troll.
👍👍👍
