Introduction

The UMEOX iQIBLA Smart Zikr Ring Lite Brown 20MM (Model Number: Zikr Ring Lite) promises a lot for such a small package. Advertised as the world’s smallest smart ring with a display, this device aims to seamlessly integrate prayer reminders, a tasbeeh counter, and Bluetooth connectivity into a discreet and wearable format. After several weeks of testing, I’m ready to share my comprehensive review.

Features

The Zikr Ring Lite packs a surprising amount of functionality into its tiny frame. Key features include its OLED display, which is surprisingly clear and bright given its size. The Bluetooth connectivity allows for easy pairing with smartphones and the compatible Qibla watch. The built-in tasbeeh counter is intuitive and easy to use for tracking daily prayers. The 5 prayer time reminders are a welcome addition for those who appreciate timely notifications. And while it’s advertised as having a 40mAh battery, my experience suggests it delivers on its promise of 5 days of usage.

Performance

In terms of performance, the Zikr Ring Lite exceeded my expectations in certain areas. The OLED display is crisp and easily readable even in direct sunlight (though obviously not as bright as larger displays). The Bluetooth connection was stable and reliable throughout my testing period, and pairing was straightforward. The tasbeeh counter is precise and easy to access. However, the notifications could sometimes be a little delayed but this was not a major issue.

The battery life is impressive, consistently lasting around 5 days on a single charge, as advertised. Charging is simple and convenient via USB, though this does require a separate charging cable which might be a small inconvenience for some users.

The overall user experience is smooth. Navigation is intuitive, and the ring is comfortable enough to wear for extended periods.
