To the people disparaging the Indian medical community, please note that we, me included, are not against technological solutions towards improved preventative care. In fact, preventative care is is the heart of medical science. But, let us not confuse fradulently selling preventive care from selling objectively verified actionable preventive care. Deepinder, who owns Temple and has already started taking pre-orders from customers for the device has taken the name of other wearables and claimed that his process was also the due process followed before Whoop, Apple, Fitbit etc.. were also marketed. This is a BLATANT LIE. Rob Mohr (Lead Physician on Temple) and Avi Roy (Science Lead on Temple) have both being running around with their tails on fire like rats jumping of an exploding ship on Instagram and Twitter. They have provided zero evidence to Temple device claims on their website. Deepinder himself claims that other wearables in the market published data after release. Total nonsense. The Apple Watch Series 11 and Fitbit Sense had the strongest pre-launch clinical evidence. Before shipping ECG tools, Apple and Fitbit passed multi-site clinical trials for FDA clearance. The Fitbit Sense 2 and Apple Watch Series 11 42mm also built on 400,000-person heart studies before launch. The Fitbit Sense 2, Fitbit Sense Black, and Fitbit Sense Lunar White/Soft Gold combine FDA-cleared ECG with cEDA sweat sensing. Similarly, the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic and Samsung Galaxy Watch9 passed FDA sleep apnea trials before release. Meanwhile, the Oura Ring 4 and Whoop 4.0 launched as wellness trackers backed by peer-reviewed sleep studies. Their skin temperature sensors power FDA-cleared Natural Cycles (K202897) fertility software. Even basic models like the Apple Watch SE 3 and Apple Watch SE use validated optical heart algorithms...all of which are... ...UNLIKE Temple. By contrast, Temple opened ₹85,000 pre-orders with zero regulatory approvals and no peer-reviewed papers. It's only backed by company's internal, not validated, non-peer reviewed, not conclusive, statistically misinterpreted preprints on 23 adults and 44 young men. Choose the WHOOP 4.0 or Oura Ring 4 if you want screenless overnight heart rate variability and recovery tracking. Pick the Apple Watch Series 11 or Samsung Galaxy Watch8 for FDA-cleared cardiac and sleep apnea alerts. Treat Temple as an unverified wellness gadget until peer-reviewed clinical trials prove its brain flow claims. Initial studies already prove it has nothing to with the brain function. PRE-ORDERS MUST BE HALTED AS THIS IS UNETHICAL, IMMORAL. Deepinder's science team for science is as good as Taliban's education ministry is for womens education. Temple as a device for brain flow monitroing is as useful as a bikini on the mackerel. Deepinder is a businessman. He has already entered the realm on andhbhakts and right wing nationalist with his plastic device "that does nothing" to help boost pre-sales. I dont mind this. The device does not track brain activity and in any case and thats ok with the andbhakts supporting him and the ones abusing me under my posts. But Deepinder taking a U-turn and calling a supposed brain function tracking device as "fitness tracker" also is a scam because it has not been proven to be a fitness tracker too. People can stick a nice looking Lego piece on their foreheads and it would still function as good as Temple does now. Now its time for the founder to rage 😘😘😘 or better, stop shipping a junk product.
