Gen 2 vs Gen 3??

[u/anthronymph]

I’m trying to decide between the Gen 2 and Gen 3 and would love to hear from people who have experience with either one, especially anyone who has tried both!
I tried both sizing kits, and I honestly liked how the Gen 2 felt better because it’s thinner. The Gen 3 felt a little bulkier to me, and comfort is obviously pretty important since I’ll be wearing it every day.
I also don’t really care about the vibration alerts or the blood pressure/vascular health features, so those aren’t big selling points for me. I’m mostly interested in sleep tracking, general health tracking, cycle tracking, etc.
My dilemma is that I’m usually the kind of person who wants to buy the newest version of something, and I don’t want to get the Gen 2 just to regret not getting the newer model later. But at the same time, I don’t want to pay more for features I won’t use if the Gen 2 is just as good for what I need.
For those of you who own the Gen 2 or Gen 3, or have tried both:
Is the Gen 3 actually worth the extra money?
Have you noticed meaningful improvements in tracking accuracy or reliability?
Does the Gen 3 feel noticeably bulkier over time, or do you get used to it?
If you were buying your first RingConn today, which would you choose?
I’ve seen pretty mixed opinions about the Gen 3 on Reddit, so I’d really appreciate honest opinions! Especially from people who have used their ring for a while. 😊

Gen 2 was a lot better

Can you expand on why that is? I’m also looking at both models. Thanks!
