In short

Slim is the discontinued 2 g / 2.2 mm Circular: 5 days, 5 m / 30 min, vibration + tap button, free app on old OS floors. Use this page if you already own one. Buy Ring 2 if you want the current ECG titanium shop SKU.

Who it is for

  • Owners who already have Slim and want the official guide numbers in one place.
  • People documenting the 2.2 mm / 2 g / 5 m water class versus Ring 2’s 2.55 mm / 50 m guide.
  • iOS 11+ or Android 6+ users still pairing a working Slim.
  • Anyone who wants haptic alarms / timers from the Slim feature list.

Who should skip it

  • Anyone shopping a new Circular. The live shop is Ring 2 only.
  • Buyers who want 50 m / 100 m water or an ECG — Slim’s guide is 5 m / 30 min and no ECG row.
  • People who need a 10–14 day OEM battery table.
  • Anyone treating release-notes “Slim deprecated” as a promise of new firmware forever.

Key differentiators

  • Official guide: 8.8 × 2.2 mm and 2 g — Circular’s thinnest published ring.
  • IP68 to 5 m for 30 minutes (not salted water).
  • Tap button + vibration motor; up to 20 days of memory.
  • Free app; iOS 11.0+ / Android 6.0+ on the guide.

Caveats

  • Not in the current shop collection. Do not write a US add-to-cart.
  • Outer-shell alloy is not named on the fetched Slim spec block (accessed 2026-09-19). Guide care copy only says changeable outer-shells can scratch. Do not invent titanium or aluminium.
  • Circular is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease without a clinician (guide safety).
  • Shop social-proof or third-party review numbers are not OEM specs — omit them.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy Slim from Circular today?

Not on the shop collection we opened. The live hardware SKU is Circular Ring 2. Treat Slim as discontinued retail.

How deep can Slim go?

The official Slim guide: IP68, 5 meters for a maximum of 30 minutes, not recommended in salted water. That is not Ring 2’s 50 m guide line and not a 100 m Oura/RingConn claim.

Does Slim have ECG?

Not on the Slim spec block we opened. Single-lead ECG is the Ring 2 story. Do not copy it here.

What are the OS floors?

Slim guide: iOS 11.0 or later, or Android 6.0 or later. Ring 2’s fetched shop/guide pages did not restate those floors.
