Egotistical yanks? Typical arrogant no imagination whatever! Yank hater…the design is great, but I fail to see what it has to do with yanks?
tony says
the guy above is stupid, dont trust him! he’s ginger
MTL says
The colour of my hair does not matter, its the willingness of these people to advertise the fact that they have an iphone (which is not the best phone currently out, and ask its owners about the performance and other issues with the handset). Next they’ll come up with things like those miners hats, but instead of a torch on the front they’ll have a slot for an iphone

Caution, will cause 3rd degree burns when the li-ion battery explodes or overheats.
Kyleisanidiot says
Yeah, because they do that all the time if you don't fuck with them.
Like my laptop, iPod and watch. Oh wait, non of them have exploded. Probably because i don't fuck with them.

Married to Apple? What happened to a good old fashioned t-shirt to get free advertising?
Mike says
Now Apple snobs can have another talisman with the ubiquitous logo.

OMG I Love it!! I agree with EbolaCola except I’m already married. So I’d just exchange my wedding ring with this one.

Pure fantasy… Even the smallest BT module available today won’t fit into the pictured design, let alone the push button mechanism. And without restrictations, anyone can come up with cool design/idea. But then, this is Earth not Corellia!! Dream on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I get one with Tux on it? You know… the other white meat!
tosika says
YES YES YES. Just today i was on a packed train and couldn’t reach into my pocket to change the song because i was holding a rail to keep balance. ide buy this if it comes out. Apple is on the ball!
Denis Loubet says
How is it sized? One ring does not fit all.
You don’t want the thing falling off your finger.
April says
It’s so pretty.<3 I thought it was a bracelet at first. If it was, it wouldn’t have battery size problems, and you’d be able to fit more functions into it. You know what? Why not just make an iPod bracelet? It would work beautifully with a set of cordless headphones.
Grace and Candace says
ditto
Grace and Candace says
candace: Cookies are awesome
Grace: ummm yeah, well, i like guinea pigs.
M72 says
uh what comes next from apple – iLife?
서희Seohee says
so it’s like a remote control in ring size right?
좋은 디자인네~
ìí¬Seohee says
so it's like a remote control in ring size right?
ì¢ì ëìì¸ë¤~
irukandji says
Nice idea to bad that having a ring on your finder for the control is not a smooth as you think to manipulate. You have to use two hands in order for it to work a bit easier . For one handed operation it falls short for individuals have diffrent sized thumbs. This has been tested before
tangthanhvu says
wow !!!!! how much??
Spencer says
where would we buy this iRing and how much well it cost in the U.S??
Jeremiah Connelly says
So I have not time or knowledge to develop a real patent so here it goes. Take that ring, and put an accelerometer in it. Use the accelerometer to control Anything with gestures. Who wants the tiny buttons. Send me a check if you use this idea. I really need the money.
zippyflounder says
and how do you prevent accidental operations…(scene sreet: listing the bach and see a cab wave and it jumps to fatbastard and crams the volume to 12, grab ear plugs and yank out while stumbling into the street.). The other problem, is how you going to get the music from the ring to your ears..wires up your shirt sleve, bluetooth. Just remember everything takse power, and that means batteries and the space for them…
zippyflounder says
edit on how to get the music up, but consider bluetooth is a rx protocall and uses a fair bit of power…so where is the batteries for that?
mrfredash says
The reason i want an iring is for while i'm playing poker. I want to be able to control the volume and what track i'm listening to without having to look away from the table. I'm already using hand gestures to show that i'm checking, to move my chips and to pick up my cards. Therefore a gesture recognition system for me would ruin it.

stantok says
The design is compact stylish and functional. The concept is solid; allow user remote wireless control of their music while allowing hand mobility alleviating the necessity of picking up, putting down, or potentially loosing a device. I would like to see a OLED flex screen wrapped around this puppy to give the user option of displaying different colors design or effects even though it may result in lower battery life.
suphan says
where i am buy it?
Lee Felsenstein says
See US Pat. 5,832,296, to myself and Victor Wang, assigned to Interval Research Corporation, 1995. Very nice drawings, though.

mrfredash says
It isn't real, it's a design concept. And when they came up with the concept (over 4 years ago) it was pure impossibility. You couldn't fit a bluetooth module in it (no one even uses blue tooth anymore, geez.) whereas now we'd probably just make it network capable, touch sensitive systems weren't good enough either (they are now)
Probably it has either been forgotten about or is just not forseen to be profitable enough

Now my wife wants one of these :/ Bet they are expensive….
Bob says
The Iring sucks balls
Joe says
dont be do closed minded, apple snobs always get what WE want. maybe it wont fit in a ring(but then look @ the new ipad, we arent that far away from possible, but it will definitly fit in a bracelet and still look kick ass. tbh, if some1 knows how to program, the rest is easy w/ blu tooth and ctc machining(maybe not the touch pad buttons)
kay says
OK on the real when is this coming out i dont care where it’s at nor do i care about bestbuy but i would like to get my hands on this item even if it’s in japan i dont mind ordering from there at all.
Shel says
Considering that they have blue tooth head sets with display screens that tell you who’s calling and the number as well as displaying text messages. This ring can be easily produced.. Now that the technology is available I would expect one to be coming out any time now.

Adam Brissette says
This is the greatest invention science the iPhone 5 nice job
Snooki-Crook says
Ok I see oh it is nice but is it useable one handed or do you have to use both hands cause if you do that then you have to turn the ring in and away goes the Apple symbol.
Will says
Where can I buy one or two?
Oscar wade says
Mint init
Alan says
And how are they going to size them for different fingers. Worst idea ever.
kirsty says
You sooooo can’t buy them at best buy, lol I looked, yes silly me
I’m assuning they don’t exist yet, if Apple don’t make one I will cry LOUDLY! Does anyone know if and when they are making them?????

The Black iRing look good.Has the iRing hit the market yet? If so how much it Cost?
Alex says
Just shut up and take my money
ItsJustMeCalmDown says
Seriously? Please tell me this is fake. I mean how lazy have we gotten that we need a ring to control our iPod or iPhone? Because we can’t move a few inches and go to the next song or whatever. Wow..the world has become so sad.
Bryan says
Well I know ppl have opposing opinions on this but I think it’s nifty I think it would just be a cool toy to have…I’m game

Think about it says
Why would Apple spend that much money on something so pointless. Control your iPod… Really. If the thing was used to display messages from your phone to you that would make more sense. If you are at work and can’t check your phone often and the iRing displayed to you that ‘you have a message from Mom’ that makes perfect sense. Some of us can’t use our phones at work and this would be something helpful. Or even the ability to reply to messages with the ring using Siri via Bluetooth would make sense, but something to control your iPods music doesn’t make sense. Why spend so much money developing something for such a simple use.
