Turned On QVC this morning and was greeted with the" "Ringly Smart Phone Connected Ring",IMO the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. How self important do you think you are to need one of these? I'm sure doctors would not use this.I think QVC has hit a new low.

It's on clearance - originally $190, now $95. I have to admit, it does seem crazy, like who needs a smart ring. Nancy said the product was introduced on Shark Tank, so someone thought it was a good idea.

Besides wondering why anyone would feel the need for one of these, they aren't even pretty IMO.

While I aree the idea seems a bit silly, how does QVC "hit a new low" by selling it? They are entitled to sell whatever they wish, and people are free to purchase theitem if they wish.

I am sure (along with me and everyone else here) buy things that the majority of others would find silly or frivolous. It's a free country.

Sorry but I just don't feel the need to have something on my finger that is going to alert me when my iPhone rings or I get a text. This "staying connected" is getting out of control.
