Launch of Luffu Link health wearable

Overview

Fitbit co-founders James Park and Eric Friedman have launched Luffu Link, a screen-free wearable device designed for family health and safety monitoring. The device is intended to assist in the remote care of seniors, caregivers, and pets by tracking metrics such as heart rate, sleep, activity, and respiratory rate without the need for a smartphone display.

Key features of the wearable include integrated 4G LTE and GPS for independent functionality, as well as a physical button that allows users to record voice notes regarding symptoms, medications, or moods. These notes are organized via an AI-driven application. The device also supports emergency functions, including location-based help requests and quick check-ins with trusted family members.

Designed to resemble jewelry rather than a traditional smartwatch, the Luffu Link aims to provide simplified health insights by identifying meaningful changes in daily patterns. The product is available for pre-order in the United States for approximately $250 to $300, with shipping expected in early 2027. Recent updates clarify that the LTE service will be provided through an integrated monthly subscription model and note that the device monitors heart rate variability in addition to standard metrics.
