Zomato co-founder Deepinder Goyal’s Temple wearable is all set for its consumer launch, with its pre-orders for Batch 01 opening on November 1, 2026. Interested buyers will have the opportunity to purchase the device via the company’s Temple app. However, this will not be a typical smartwatch launch. The device will be designed to monitor signals associated with cerebral blood flow and offer insights into physiological strain.

The device grabbed headlines after Goyal was seen wearing it during an appearance on Raj Shamani’s podcast. Badminton player PV Sindhu and cricketer Shubhman Gill have also been spotted using it. Now, with pre-orders just two days away, here is everything you need to know about Temple, including its expected price, features, design and how to get one.

Temple price in India and subscription details

Temple Batch 01 will be priced at Rs 85,000 in India, according to early-access invitations shared with prospective buyers. The price includes lifetime access to the wearable’s software platform and analytical features. This means buyers will not have to pay a recurring subscription fee to access the core software experience.

The early-access package is also said to include personal onboarding, where buyers receive a one-on-one introduction to the device, along with a lifetime supply of Grips. These are the adhesive patches used to attach Temple to the side of the head.

The company is also offering something called Temple Care, which appears to be a device replacement programme available for a nominal fee, much like AppleCare+.

What is Temple and what does it track?

Temple is a small, pebble-shaped wearable that sits on the side of your head, between the forehead and the ear. It does not have a display, physical buttons or vibration alerts. Instead, it collects data and sends it to a companion smartphone app, where users can review their readings and insights.

One of the main technologies used to make the device is BrainFlow. It uses optical sensors to track changes associated with cerebral blood flow, which refers to the movement of blood through the brain. The main aim is to help users understand how their bodies respond to factors such as physical activity, stress and recovery.

There is an Entropy score too that ranges from 1 to 250. It is designed to show physiological strain, including factors such as sleep, exercise, stress and caffeine consumption contributing to the score.

This is different from the metrics commonly found on smartwatches and fitness bands, which primarily focus on heart rate, movement, sleep and other everyday health measurements. Temple is attempting to offer another perspective by monitoring signals associated with the brain.

Temple design and colour options

Temple has a compact, smooth pebble-like design without the screen or controls found on conventional wearables. It attaches to the skin near the temple using single-use adhesive patches called Grips.

The company says the device is designed to stay in place during everyday activities and workouts. Goyal has also discussed wearing it while running, swimming and showering, although scuba diving is not recommended.

Each Grip can last around seven days, but users are advised to replace it every two to three days, particularly after heavy sweating or exposure to dusty conditions. The adhesive patches are not designed for reuse.

Temple will be available in six finishes: True Gold, Rose Gold, Dark Mirror, Real Jade, Deep Blue and Purple Funk. Real Jade, Deep Blue and Purple Funk are being positioned as limited-edition options.

The wearable is also designed to sit comfortably alongside glasses, with its smooth edges intended to prevent it from catching on clothing.

Temple battery life and charging details

Temple is intended for continuous wear, but the company has not yet shared a complete set of confirmed battery specifications, including the device’s exact battery life and charging time. Information on the company’s app listing mentions a charging pod that can carry up to 25 days of charge. This figure refers to the charging pod’s stated capacity and should not be confused with the wearable’s battery life on a single charge.

More details about charging frequency and real-world battery performance are still awaited. These will be important for a device that is designed to remain attached to the user’s head throughout the day.

How to pre-book Temple in India

Temple Batch 01 pre-orders will start from November 1, 2026. Interested buyers should look out for pre-order access through Temple’s official channels and app. Early-access invitations have already shared the Rs 85,000 price and the included benefits. However, the complete details about the public ordering process and availability details are not yet disclosed.

There is also a waiting period to consider. Goyal has said that each device will be handcrafted to order, with deliveries expected within three months of purchase. Buyers placing orders in November will receive their devices in early 2027.
