WHOOP 5.0 and MG Launch: Revolutionizing Personal Health Tracking with Advanced Features and New Membership Model
May 8, 2025
Early adopters have provided positive feedback on the new devices, particularly praising their comfort and functionality, which has generated significant social media engagement.
These developments in wearable technology highlight a growing trend towards sophisticated health tools that are user-friendly, influencing both the wearable and healthcare technology sectors.
As the impact of Whoop 5.0 on user adoption and market share unfolds, the company's commitment to redefining health tracking continues to evolve.
Whoop has officially launched its latest devices, the Whoop 5.0 and Whoop MG, available for purchase starting May 8, 2025, initially in the U.S., UAE, and Qatar.
Available in two versions, the standard Whoop 5.0 and the medical-grade Whoop MG, both models are 7% smaller than previous iterations, enhancing comfort and usability.
These new models include advanced features such as biological age tracking, on-demand ECG readings, and estimated blood pressure insights, positioning Whoop alongside top health-monitoring devices.
The revamped membership structure aims to attract a broader audience, offering flexible pricing and thoughtful trade-in programs that empower users.
With a dual-tier membership model, users can choose between Core and Pro memberships at $30 per month, each offering exclusive perks and lifestyle bundling.
Current Whoop members can upgrade their membership and enjoy a one-month free trial of the previous Whoop 4.0 membership before selecting a new plan.
The integration of medical-grade features is expected to increase user trust and attract non-athlete customers, expanding Whoop's market reach.
However, the redesign has made previous Whoop 4.0 bands incompatible, which may frustrate existing users.
Each membership tier includes distinct bands, such as a premium LeatherLuxe band crafted from Italian leather, enhancing the overall user experience.
