Empatica does not sell any refurbished E4 devices.

 

Can I still buy E4 accessories?

The E4 is retiring to give space to our new technology, the EmbracePlus.

Currently, Empatica does not plan on restocking the E4 device accessories. Once the E4 accessories go out of stock on the Online Store, they will no longer be available for purchase.

 

Can I still access the E4 Software Suite? For how long?

Although the E4 itself is retiring, the E4 wristband software suite (E4 connect, E4 manager, E4 realtime app, E4 streaming server, and E4 SDK) will remain available to access.

All devices within the 1-year warranty period will continue to be serviced, and the cost covered by Empatica.

Due to limited component availability, it is possible that Empatica will not be able to perform specific repairs. In this case, we invite you to consult the EmbracePlus upgrade Terms & Conditions to check for your eligibility to upgrade your E4 to the EmbracePlus.
