If you've ever thought of working out in virtual reality, Alo Moves introduces a version of its app for the Meta Quest 3. Alo Moves XR is the first wellness app on Meta's platform to feature volumetric 3D-capture classes. This technique allows you to see the class from all angles. It lets you "interact" with your 3D instructors, "reposition" them and view every angle for a complete 360-degree perspective.

Alo Moves XR launches with 32 classes across yoga, pilates, and mindfulness categories. Popular instructors like yoga teacher Ashley Galvin and pilates specialist Bianca Wise are on the platform. You can expect a structured release schedule of four to five new mixed-reality yoga and pilates classes added monthly alongside weekly meditation and sound bath sessions.

After its global launch in July, the Samsung Galaxy Ring is finally coming to Canada. It will hit the Samsung Experience Stores in the country starting October 3. You can visit the nearest brick-and-mortar store for a hands-on experience with the new smart ring. You can also order the Galaxy Ring through samsung.com/ca and at participating authorized Canadian retailers.

The Samsung Galaxy Ring costs $549.99, and the sizing kit is sold separately for $14.99. It's one of the more expensive smart rings available, but the upside is it doesn't come with a subscription to use the wearable.

The Apple Ultra Watch 2 is still made out of titanium. Specifically, 95% recycled grade 5 titanium, which you'll also see on the Apple Watch Series 10 titanium model. And its back is made out of tough zirconia.
