Fitness Enthusiasts Can Score the Ultrahuman Ring Air for $290 or Less, a New Low
Right now QVC has slashed the cost of the Ultrahuman Ring Air to just $290. That's a solid $59 savings on its list price and beats the price we saw during Prime Day this year. What's more -- if you're new to QVC, you can use coupon code HELLO30 for an additional $30 off, slashing the price to just $260.
This smart ring is one of our favorite options, tracking sleep, stress, heart rate and even caffeine intake. It's also water-resistant, compatible with both iOS and Android and, perhaps best of all, you do not need to pay for an additional subscription to use the Ultrahuman ring. The battery should last up to five days between charges, too.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
CNET expert Vanessa Hand Orellana wrote in her review that "the Ultrahuman Ring Air is a solid first smart ring for most people. It's not flawless, especially when it comes to workout tracking, but it's a great wellness companion that can help you improve or adopt healthier habits. The lack of a subscription alone makes it one of the most accessible smart rings out there." Plus, this deal is available in all five colorways, so you can grab the one that best suits your style.
Note that QVC will first ship a sizing kit, then you'll need to select the right size for you and your ring will ship separately after your confirmation.
Why this deal matters
It's rare to find deals on smart rings, and this particular offer knocks up to $90 off the original price. If you've been considering investing in a sleek wearable to help you on your wellness journey that isn't as heavy and chunky as a smartwatch, this is an exceptional deal. But be quick -- an offer this good won't last long.

Tesla brings its robotaxi service to San Francisco (sort of)
Tesla has rolled out a ride-hailing service in San Francisco, but the lack of a permit to allow it to accept fares from passengers means that it can't yet call it a robotaxi service. The first Tesla Model 3 and Model Y cars hit the streets of San Francisco on Thursday, just over a month after the launch of its robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, where it does have the proper permits. Recommended Videos A video uploaded by a passenger to X shows a Tesla employee with his hands touching the steering wheel as the car drove along in FSD (Full self-driving) mode, Tesla's advanced driver-assist feature. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) stated recently that at the current time, Tesla has to have a safety driver behind the wheel for testing, as well as to transport members of the public, Reuters reported. The regulator added that the automaker has to undertake a pilot phase that imposes no charges on passengers before applying for full-autonomous permits, a process that Reuters says took competitors such as Waymo 'years' to complete. Tesla is inviting employees' friends and family, and select members of the public, to participate in the early stage of the service. In June, the automaker launched its first robotaxi service in Austin, with a safety monitor sitting in the front passenger seat, not the driver's seat. And unlike the Tesla's ride-hailing cars in San Francisco, Austin's Model Y vehicles have 'robotaxi' branding on the side. Musk said recently that Tesla is planning to get permits to launch its robotaxi service in a number of states, including not only California but also Nevada, Arizona, and Florida. In California, strict regulations have prevented Musk from experiencing the kind of rapid robotaxi rollout that was possible in Texas. Essentially, the San Francisco launch appears to be a strategic move by Tesla to maintain momentum in the autonomous-vehicle sector.

The LeapMove is a gamified camera designed to get kids off the couch
LeapFrog has announced a new electronic learning system that swaps controllers for a camera. In fact, the LeapMove looks like an oversized, kid-friendly webcam, but is designed to connect to TVs like a console and get kids off the couch using educational games that require full-body movements to play. It's reminiscent of the Xbox Kinect or the PlayStation 2's EyeToy, but simpler and much cheaper than competitors' products like the $249 Nex Playground. The LeapMove will be available through retailers including Target, Walmart, and Amazon for $69.99, and comes with 25 motion-based games designed for kids aged 4 to 7. It might be hard to pull the older end of that demographic away from games like Roblox, Among Us, and even Fortnite, but in addition to motion detection, the LeapMove uses its camera to make players appear as themselves or 'whimsical characters' in several games, which may appeal to younger kids. The games cover 'foundational school subjects' including math, reading, and spelling, and require players to do everything from dancing around to waving their arms and even attempting to catch on-screen objects. The LeapMove connects to a TV over HDMI, and instead of rechargeable batteries it needs access to a power outlet. It can be used either sitting beneath a TV or perched atop it like a webcam using a fold-out support. LeapFrog says additional games will be made available for the LeapMove at a later date, which can be loaded by connecting the device to a computer and using the company's LeapFrog Connect desktop app. They won't be free, but unlike the Nex Playground, the LeapMove doesn't come with any subscription fees. Parents concerned about privacy, particularly with devices that rely heavily on a camera, may appreciate that the LeapMove has no wireless connectivity. In 2018, VTech, LeapFrog's parent company, agreed to settle for a $650,000 fine after the FTC alleged it collected kids' personal information, including names, emails, and genders, through its KidiConnect mobile app. The LeapMove is completely standalone and keeps track of up to three players' progress locally.

Alcohol Use, Sober Curiosity, And Recovery In College Mental Health
Before the start of each academic year in higher education, there appears to be questions from incoming students and their families about how much do college students drink alcohol. According to the 2023 National College Health Assessment by the American College Health Association, 63.7% of college students in the survey reported using alcohol in their lifetime, and 57.7% reported using alcohol in the past 3 months. However, national surveys about alcohol use often have limitations, such relying on self-reports or not distinguishing between what type of alcohol is being used and in what context does the drinking occur. Caroline Albritton Sahba is an Associate Director for Counseling and Mental Health at Texas Christian University (where I serve as the Director), and leads the Substance Use and Recovery Services on campus. Sahba commented, 'No matter which survey results you read, the perception of use rarely matches the reality of self-reported substance use, especially alcohol.' Sahba warned against misperceptions in the mainstream media that all college students drink alcohol. She stated, 'This misperception can unfortunately mislead the student's behavior: influencing them to drink earlier, more frequently, or more amounts than they may have if they had a more realistic perception of alcohol use on college campuses.' Sahba's arguments are supported by research. According to a 2023 study in the journal of Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, the drinking behavior of college students was related to the proportion of social network members who post alcohol-related social media content. This study also found that seeking advice from friends who post alcohol content on social media was linked to a greater number of alcohol-related consequences. Such consequences were also a concern for Sahba as she reported, 'Another mistake I see college students and parents make regarding the perception of alcohol, is not addressing the direct correlation, sometimes causation, that it has to undesired academic and social outcomes.' Misperceptions About Alcohol Use And Sober Curiosity Dr. Shelley Long is a licensed psychologist who is known for instilling hope and building authentic bonds with clients. She's also the founder of Sobriety Out Loud! Long argued that many college students have misperceptions about sober curiosity. She commented, 'Sober curious differs from sobriety in that it doesn't necessarily mean eliminating alcohol altogether; it's about being more mindful and intentional about when, why, and how much you drink.' Long discussed how the industry of sober coaching has risen in popularity, which is designed to help people develop a mindful approach to alcohol, or help eliminate alcohol use, with the help of an empathetic coach. Long further argued that it's a misperception to think that only students with a past history of alcohol concerns maintain sobriety. She said, 'The benefits of sobriety reach deeply into physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual improvements. Some of the obvious physical benefits include better sleep, more energy, improved health, and fewer accidents or injuries. Additionally, alcohol is linked to an increased risk of at least seven types of cancer!' The psychologist discussed how many students avoid alcohol to save money and time, focus on genuine connections, explore hobbies, set boundaries, and to increase confidence. Long described these students as a source of encouragement and said, 'It's important to remember that sobriety isn't about what you're giving up (booze), it's about everything you gain.' Misperceptions About Alcohol Use And Recovery Sarah Oliveira-McDonald is the Director of Strategic Partnerships for La Hacienda Treatment center. According to a 2025 report on this treatment center has set the standard for professional residential facilities for alcohol and drug rehabilitation for over 40 years. Oliveira-McDonald argued that a common myth is that people must hit rock bottom before seeking help. According to Oliveira-McDonald, early intervention leads to better outcomes, and college-age students who struggle with alcohol use disorders have the opportunity to get support during a formative stage of development, which can change the trajectory of their lives. Oliveira-McDonald discussed her own journey of recovery, 'For me, my personality and how much I was drinking, treatment was the only option. I tried AA, I tried counseling, I tried medication. I needed a spiritual solution and I could only attain that by going to a 30-day treatment center and learning how to stay sober. I needed to be a student and learn from others how to do this. The biggest misconception is the stigma around going to "rehab" I like the word treatment. It's softer and kinder.' Oliveira-McDonald elaborated on the concerns that many have about seeking treatment. 'Treatment for substance use disorder is effective because it addresses the whole person—biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. Addiction is a complex, chronic brain disease, not a moral failing, and effective treatment provides the tools and support needed for lasting recovery. It's not just about abstinence; it's about building a meaningful, balanced life.' In summary, it's true that many students will be tempted by the potential distractions of alcohol use while in college. However, not every student will give in to this temptation and some students won't even view alcohol as tempting for a variety of reasons. For those who struggle with alcohol use, there are reasons to be encouraged because the traditional college-aged years are often an opportune time to seek help.
