Before we get to the end of the review, it's important to talk about value, but to do this, I'm going to leave whether the Whoop is good or not aside and just focus on what else you can get for the money. The Whoop MG and Life plan I've reviewed is $359 per year, but if you sign up for a two-year membership when you buy it, you get a special $599 price. An Oura Ring 4 starts at $349, and a 23-month subscription to its app will bring the total over two years to $489. This rises to $640 if you buy the Oura Ring 4 Ceramic. Sounds a lot, right? It certainly is when you consider the $350 Samsung Ga
I reviewed the Whoop MG to find out if it should be worried about the Fitbit AirI’ve enjoyed returning to the Whoop far more than I expected. I’ve found it very easy to live with, the data clear and informative, and its lack of notifications or pressure to perform very refreshing. However, it’s very clear you’ll need to be athletic, or seriously trying to become more athletic, to get the most from it. It’s not a lifestyle tracker like the Oura Ring, and it’s not as generally helpful as a smartwatch. This is important to understand because the Whoop is an expensive fitness tracker to live with. While it’s natural to look at the membership cost as a single, annual figure, i
I reviewed the Whoop MG to find out if it should be worried about the Fitbit Air… Whoop, on the other hand, requires a subscription to work at all, starting at a fairly reasonable £169 / $199 / AU$299 per year for the base Whoop One subscription, which comes with the Whoop 5.0 device but locks metrics like Stress and Whoop Age behind a paywall. …
… While you don’t pay for the Whoop 5.0 tracker itself, you have to choose between three subscriptions. The Whoop One costs $199/£169 per year and is the cheapest option. You’ll get the Whoop 5.0 tracker and CoreKnit band, as well as basic tracking. Whoop Peak costs $239/£229 per year. …
… Whoop optimizes for performance levels. Nilay gave me his blessing to share this tidbit, precisely because the idea is laughable to anyone who’s ever known him. I did laugh, but then noticed dozens of Whoop-related pitches in my email. There seemed to be a lot of whooping about Whoop. …
… Whoop One comes with the 5.0 monitor, basic wired charger and CoreKnit band. Whoop Peak includes the 5.0, SuperKnit band, and a wireless charger. Whoop Life upgrades to the Whoop MG monitor and SuperKnit Luxe band. I've been wearing the CoreKnit band with my Whoop MG. …
Google just dropped an affordable WHOOP rival! Meet the new Fitbit Air, a lightweight, screenless band that tracks heart rate, sleep & vitals 24/7. -> Up to 7 days battery -> No subscription needed -> Just $99 Finally, p…
Figured I’d try it out to see how it fits. Definitely smaller than the whoop and much lighter. Tried on all sorts of bands for it but I liked the black one in the photo the best. Staff were walking around with them on bu…
Hey HN,A few months ago I posted here to announce Pace. A lot of very helpful technical questions about the JSONB approach, MCP streaming, rate limits. Thanks and I took notes ;)Since then I have reworked most of the dat…
I genuinely think Microsoft could dominate way more of the consumer market if they actually committed to it properly instead of half-doing everything. Like… they already own the ecosystem pieces: Windows Xbox Copilot / A…
… The Whoop 5.0 is the basic version that comes with the $199 per year Whoop One membership and the $239 per year Whoop Peak membership. The Whoop MG unlocks specialist health tracking features and comes with the top Whoop Life package, which costs $359 per year. …
… New Whoop 5.0 features: Healthspan and menstrual cycle tracking One of my favorite additions to the Whoop 5.0 is the Healthspan suite, which will show you metrics like Whoop Age and pace of aging. …
… WHOOP says clinician access is coming to the app, but it doesn’t say whether it’ll be included in existing membership pricing or sold as an extra. WHOOP’s current annual memberships already start at $199 and rise to $359 for WHOOP Life. …
… Bevel was just the one who felt closest to the WHOOP. So if you combine this new realization with WHOOP’s price point and subscription model, it really changes how you view and justify the WHOOP. …
… You can wear WHOOP almost anywhere on your body WHOOP Another thing I absolutely love about my WHOOP is the flexibility with how you can wear it. …
With Google Fitbit Air, Amazfit Helio Strap and Polar Loop, Whoop has more competition than ever before. The fitness wristband veteran is responding by separating the hardware from the subscription – but Whoop remains by far the most expensive product of its kind.
