CES 2025 health and fitness gadgets came in all shapes and sizes. In the absence of big clothing brands, smaller companies have stepped up and continued to push the boundaries of wrist-based tracking with innovative ways to help you get fit and track your well-being. CES 2025 showed us that you can take a shower without getting out of bed or measure your blood pressure from a mirror. Heck, even your jewelry can now take an EKG.

This year, we partnered with CTA and worked with our sister sites CNET, Lifehacker, BakingAND ZDNET to choose the official winners for The Best of the CES Awards. You’ll find some of those products that also made the cut for this list and have been assigned a Best of CES badge below.

Keep in mind that not all of the devices shown at CES will make it to market, but we’ve provided pricing and release details where available. In no particular order, here are our favorite health and fitness gadgets from CES.

The Kirin Electric Salt Spoon delivers a small electric current to your tongue as you eat, tricking your brain into thinking what you’re eating is saltier than it is. If you’re trying to cut back on sodium but love to use salt, this scoop can be a game changer.

It’s a little heavy, so you have to hold it at a weird angle for it to work, but with a little tweaking, it could be a great tool for salt fiends like me who are looking to eat healthier. It’s already available in Japan, but there’s no word on a US release date or price.


Circular ring 2

Promising improved AI-enabled intelligence and eight days of battery life, the Circle Ring 2 measures your activity and heart health from its position on your finger. Due to arrive by March, the $380 wearable is even FDA-cleared to take an EKG and detect atrial fibrillation (AFib), features not available on Oura ring 4 or to Samsung Galaxy Ring. Circle Ring 2 also offers a new app-based solution to find your size, so you don’t have to wait for a sizing kit or try on plastic samples before getting the actual product.


Rare Ultrahuman

The Ultrahuman Rare is quite possibly the best looking smart ring we’ve seen. It puts the abilities of the Ultrahuman Air Ring in a trio of luxurious finishes. The Desert collection consists of Desert Rose, Desert Snow or Dune, with the Dune and Desert Rose models crafted from 18k gold and the Desert Snow model made from pt950 platinum. Otherwise, the Rare has the same health, sleep and stress tracking as its predecessor, complete with a modular companion app that lets you customize and track unique criteria like caffeine consumption and circadian rhythm.


Body Switle

While it looks like a canister vacuum, the Switle Body is not meant for the floor. Instead, it’s an elderly care device designed to clean people while they lie in bed. It has a water tank and a soap tank, and its spout sprays solution and uses suction to prevent spillage. You can also control the temperature of the sprayed water for greater comfort. According to the startup, the device is relatively light for caregivers at just over 12 pounds and requires less than a quart of water for washing.


FaceHeart cardio mirror

We saw several smart mirrors at CES last year, but the FaceHeart Cardio Mirror goes beyond trying to understand your mood and mental well-being. Stare at your reflected eyes for 45 seconds and the mirror can measure blood pressure, heart rate, heart rate variability, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation and stress index, as well as detect atrial fibrillation and heart failure. The startup behind the mirror has yet to announce a price or release date.

Withings also showed off a smart mirror called the Omnia. Full Body Image features built-in sensors and AI to assess and interpret your body composition, heart health, lung function, nutrition trends and more. Withings is touting it as an all-in-one health hub, but for now, it’s just a concept product, so don’t expect it to hit the market anytime soon.


YoctoMat

While on the subject of sensors in unusual places, the YoctoMat puts them on the floor. It’s a yoga mat that can help you improve your downward dog and warrior poses. The high-tech mat uses sensors to assess your body’s position and alignment as you attend virtual classes. It then produces a visual map of your body so you can see how close you are to ideal alignment and make adjustments as needed. Connected yoga devices have disappointed us in the past, but we have high hopes for this smart mat.

Founded by three former Bose engineers, Ozlo Sleepbuds are designed to help you sleep, with a particular focus on comfort and noise cancellation. The smooth silicone tips are designed to fit snugly in ears of a variety of shapes and sizes and sit the same way so you can sleep on your side without discomfort. You can stream any Bluetooth content you want to listen to, and the headphones pause what’s playing when you fall asleep while keeping the noise cancellation on all night. With 10 hours of battery life, they should last until morning, and you can program an alarm so the buds wake you up without disturbing anyone else in bed. Our official CES Best of Wellness winner, the Ozlo Sleepbuds are available now for $299.

Ozlo Sleepbuds aren’t the only sleep aid we saw at the show. Db Beats For Me headphones cancel out external noise and play music and sounds in sync with your brain waves to help you drift off to sleep. The audio turns off as soon as you fall asleep, but turns back on if you wake up during the night to help you return to dreamland. The headphones track movements and sleep patterns, along with key elements such as heart rate and nervous system activity, and provide personalized guidance for a better night’s rest via a companion app.


Willo AutoFlo+ toothbrush

The Willo AutoFlo+ toothbrush can make brushing a little easier. With the push of a button, it dispenses just the right amount of toothpaste and its 34,000 bristles begin to glide in an automatic sideways motion. It’s shaped like a mouthguard to brush all your teeth at once, and even has suction power to prevent you from making a mess. While it’s meant for kids ages 5 to 13, I’ll admit that the all-in-one brush looks tempting even to me, a grown adult. Its interactive app offers colorful and animated countdown timers and tracks your brushing history so parents can monitor their children’s oral hygiene. The AutoFlo+ is available now for $249. You can choose your preloaded toothpaste flavor at the time of purchase, though you must pay an additional $6.99 per month for a refill subscription.


Eli health hormometer

By combining a gadget that looks like a thermometer with your phone’s camera, the Eli Health Hormometer performs an in-depth analysis of your hormones. Specifically, it measures cortisol and progesterone to determine your health trends and provide actionable information about your athletic performance, fertility, sleep, stress and more. You use the main part as a thermometer, sticking it in your mouth for about 60 seconds while it collects saliva. The AI ​​in the app then uses your phone’s camera to analyze the test’s color intensities and patterns and produces hormonal data similar to the lab results you’d get from a doctor’s visit. Hormometer will launch in January with subscriptions starting at $8 per test with a 12-month commitment.

Senior analyst, smart home and wearables

Andrew Gebhart

I’m PCMag’s senior analyst covering smart homes and wearables. I’ve been writing about technology professionally for nearly a decade, and I’ve been obsessed with it for much longer than that. Before joining PCMag, I made educational videos for an electronics store called Abt Electronics in Illinois, and before that I spent eight years covering the smart home market for CNET.

I harbor a lot of edginess in my personal life. I am an avid board gamer and video gamer. I like fantasy football, which I see as a combination of role-playing games and sports. Plus, I can talk to you about craft beer for hours, and I’m on a personal quest to drink beer at every microbrewery in my hometown of Chicago.
