Customer Ratings & Reviews

The best ring to check your progress at bedtime, It also lets you know when your body is stressed and needs rest; it's a good tool for monitoring your body internally.

I love my ring it tracks everything from cycles, stress levels, heart rate, sleep patterns and all. I've only had it for 1 month but it helps a lot.

Great ring. Helps me watch my heart levels and sleep for my health issues.

INITIAL IMPRESSIONS I’ve never owned an Oura ring but have several friends that do and rave about them. As a long-time smart watch user, it was a nice change to have a more eloquent jewelry appearance. SETUP The app was easy to install, and it was very straightforward to link the ring to my account. The app is intuitive and very easy to use. The charger is compact and works with any USB-C charging cable. Initial charge took about an hour, and the ring was ready for use. The charger will turn green when ring is fully charged. USE Having never had a smart ring, I was a bit concerned about the comfort. I am not much of a jewelry wearer so getting used to it was probably more difficult than most. I did use the sizing-kit and it was very accurate. Due to all the sensors and features the ring is very thick. At first it was very uncomfortable, and I did not think I would be able to keep it for any length of time as it was more of an annoyance than I felt helpful. It took around 2 days for me to get used to wearing it and now I forget that I have it on. I do love the ceramic on the ring as I feel like it makes it more elegant and lowers the chance of scratching the ring with normal wear and tear. Also, I love that it is water resistant, so I don’t worry about leaving it on the counter while washing my hands. Oura claims a 5-to-8-day battery life. I have used the ring for five days and received a notification that I was at 22%. Recharging took approximately 45 minutes to get back to 100%. I love the battery life as I’ve owned some smart watches that need charged every day and because of this inconvenience I found myself missing out of the sleep activity. The Oura ring tracks so many things including sleep, activity, stress, readiness and women’s health. My two favorites are sleep tracking and readiness. While I have a competitor’s watch that tracks sleep, I love that this one tracks more sleep attributes. The Oura tracks total sleep, efficiency, restfulness, REM sleep, deep sleep, latency and timing. All of those are calculated to give you a sleep score and suggestions on how to improve your sleep. It also measures your average blood oxygen, your heart rate, your average HRV and lets you know if you are breathing regularly. I will say that compared to my watch my sleep score with the Oura is much higher, but it also measures far more data points to compute the score. I love the latency feature as I never knew in the past how long it took me to fall asleep. My time ranges from 5-20 minutes. At first, I was impressed until I read that target should be 15 to 20 minutes and less than 5 minutes is a sign of being overtired. The app also gives tips on how to get to sleep if having issues. My second favorite feature is the readiness tracking. This tracks your resting heart rate, your heart rate variability, your body temperature, and respiratory rate. They combine this data with your sleep, sleep balance, activity balance and recovery index to give you a readiness score between zero and 100. Since it is the weekend my readiness score was higher than the past week. Today it offered encouragement by saying I gave myself downtime and my body and mind thanked me for it. With the fast-paced life we live it is nice to get encouragement for taking a break to recharge. The activity tracker is standard with tracking steps, total calories burned, activity time and it sets a calorie burn goal for you and tracks progress towards that daily goal. The step count is within 200 steps of my watch so I would say, the Oura is very accurate. Heart rate and stress tracker are also standard and includes tracking your restorative time, stress (the amount of time your body has felt a high level of physiological stress), sleeping and activity to give you a stress time. CONCLUSIONS I am quite impressed with the Oura ring and all the features that come in such a small package. I am also impressed with the aesthetic of the Oura, it is fashionable and functional. I love all the data that is collected. I wake up and check it first thing to see how I slept and what my readiness is to prepare me for the day. There were two negatives with the Oura. First like I said prior I do not like are the initial getting used to wearing the ring and it was uncomfortable for the first 48 hours. I feel like it is thick due to all the sensors, so thick it makes my fingers seem un-natural as my pinky can’t touch my ring finger. The second thing I do not love is the annual fee to get the data. The ring is pricy compared to a smart watch and I do not get texts, or phone calls on the Oura. Even with these two negatives, I would purchase an Oura ring. I feel like the data collected is invaluable, incredibly insightful and helpful. RECOMMENDED

Pretty good, wish it told you your temperature. And wish it wouldnt need to have the line under your finger for best readings bc it moves around a lot

Best Buy worked with me to get the right size. I had to exchange it once and then the salesman helped me pick the correct size the second time.

I initially loved the ring, love the way it looks, and how it performs. I don't wear much jewelry, so mine wasn’t rubbed against other rings. I also always took it off before showering. It rolled off my bathroom counter and cracked when it hit the floor, so it was barely a 3-foot fall and not a hard impact. Oura was useless, not helpful at all. They told me to buy a case for my ring! How dumb! The ring barely works now; it’s intermittent. Had I known it would be this fragile, I would have chosen the metal version. Given their horrible customer service, I won’t buy another model and will go with a more durable brand.

Love my new Oura ring. The pink color is beautiful and the features of the ring blows me away.

I love it It helps me control my anxiety and sleep

Love this ring. Lots of information each day. Easy to charge Love it

Love it! Has much more it keeps track n of than the Oura 3.

The ceramic Oura Ring 4 is an excellent and conspicuous companion to keep track of your health and fitness. I have several fitness watches, which are indeed helpful in fitness, but not so much in health and particularly present a huge drawback in sleep. One of my main desires has been to track my sleep and the Oura ring has been outstanding in this. With watches, I wake up in the middle of the night with a strangled wrist only to take them off, but with the Oura, I forget I’m even wearing it. Not only that, but the biometrics it tracks and how it compiles them gives me insights that are extremely helpful in guiding me to make productive changes. *What’s included?* Along with the Oura ring comes a sized ring charger and USB-C to USB-C cable. Oura also offers to mail a free buffer to get rid of scuffs. *Quality of Product* This Oura ring is made of zirconia ceramic, making it so lightweight I now forget it’s even there. It did take a few days to get used to its size as it is quite wide and bulky. That said, it is extremely comfortable, with titanium on the inside that is smooth on the skin and the rounded edges making it easy to put on and remove. The zirconia ceramic is highly resilient, I almost immediately scuffed it with the handle of a pan while cooking, but the buffer Oura provided quickly buffed it off and made it look like new. The ring is made to withstand water immersion, heat, and cold. So, it can be used while swimming, in the sauna, and shower. I do not shower with it as I prefer not to, but I do plan to take it into the sauna as I like to track my biometrics while in there. *Featured Functions* • Activity tracking: This ring tracks activity phenomenally, to the point that I have been shocked several times. Not only does it know when I am busy just doing housework, it even knows when I take a nap. No other fitness tracker has been able to do that, and they usually try to nudge me to get up and walk around during naps, which only disturbs my nap. The ring then implements all of this activity into its readiness and stress score. • Readiness: This score will take several factors, with the main one being sleep, to tell you how ready you are to take on the day. It gives gentle suggestions with an understanding tone while explaining the reason for the score. • Sleep: This score has always been important to me because I know what difference it makes in my overall health but I struggle greatly with it. I have been checking times that I wake up in the middle of the night, and the ring has accurately gauged when I have been sleeping or awake. It includes analytics such as blood oxygen levels, heart rate variability, and several other biometrics that help understand the body’s sleep patterns. • Heart rate: The heart rate feature works perfectly, if not better than other fitness trackers. Because it is on my finger and does not slide around, there is no issues with lapses in the analytics. • Cycle: The ring uses nighttime temperature to detect the current stage of a woman’s menstrual cycle, but it takes 60 days to be able to start predicting so I am not currently able to comment on the accuracy as of yet. • Other biometric features: A few other included features are oxygen level and breathing. I really enjoy being able to understand where I am at with respiratory and cardiovascular health. Additionally, the ring compiles data to give info on resilience, cardiovascular age, and chronotype, all of which need more time before they can give me a result. I had not heard of chronotype, and I am quite curious as to what advice it will give me on my sleep schedule. *App* The Oura app provides an overview of all the of scores at the top, ring battery life, and makes everything else intuitive to find. It seems that they went for a calming appearance with their layout that does not overstimulate, and they achieved it. *Subscription* It is important to note that some of the analytic features I mentioned need a subscription, but I find the price for it reasonable for the value provided. Without subscription it provides readiness, activity, and sleep scores. *Battery Life* They state the ring has 5-8 days battery life, and for me it lasted until the middle of the eighth day. I am so grateful for this because I can get a whole week of biometrics without worrying about it dying in the middle of the day or night. It is much easier for me to choose a convenient time to charge it as well. It charges quite quickly, taking just over an hour to go from almost dead to fully charged. *Recommendations * I recommend choosing a size for a finger that is not next to fingers that you already put rings on as it might not get along with them plus it might scratch them since it is really high on the Mohs scale. They recommend using your nondominant index finger. I chose my dominant middle finger because I wear a watch and rings on my left and wanted to even that out and my right middle finger felt the most comfortable to me. This, of course, is what led me to scuff it right away and I do have to temporarily switch it to my left side when I am working with my hands even though it fits loosely. It’s definitely ideal to go with a size that fits multiple fingers, which I now kind of wish I had done. Also, the ring fits me well in the size I chose but it almost falls off when I have wet hands. The ring is slightly larger the ring sizer plus the rounded edges makes it easier to remove. With all this said though, it is not so loose that it rotates by itself, so it is still a good size and gives my finger room to swell, it’s just iffy when wet. I thought this worth mentioning as something to consider if you plan on using it while swimming. *Conclusion* I am truly loving this ring and how much insight I am getting into my health. I am also excitedly waiting for the rest of the analytics to load up. I think it is amazing that it can compile data to know when you might even have an underlying issue you are unaware of. There is so much to gain from something so small, conspicuous, and comfortable. I recommend this over a fitness watch.

Good ring but I feel the battery should last longer.

Bought this ring for the usual features, but when wearing it during an activity it felt bulky and not natural. I exchanged it for the Brushed Silver and this one felt much better when active.

I've thought about smart rings for a while but wondered why I would need one when I already have a smart watch. One reason would be to basically get another opinion. Don't place all your reliance on one device. You can double check and see how well they match. Another reason is I don't really like my watch on when I sleep. I almost always wear rings. At first I wanted the regular silver but I'm glad I got the midnight color. It's not really a true navy and it's never looked to me like the online photos. It's got a hint of grey and teal in it. It's definitely not a vibrant color, more understated. Depending on the light your in, it changes colors. Kinda neat. It has definitely grown on me. The sizing is the only thing I've really had an issue with. You get the sizing kit beforehand so you can try them on, see how they fit, and where you want to wear the ring. I ended up choosing the 11 as it was snug but not uncomfortable. When the ring came and I tried it on, it was tight. I could still fit on my finger but definitely would have chosen the size 12. I placed the sizing ring onto the Oura charging base to check, and indeed it does wiggle around a bit. The actual ring fits snugly. It is also thicker on the outside due to the ceramic shell. I don't think it would be comfortable to wear next to other rings. Oura needs to update the sizing kit. So far it has been durable. I've worn it since I've gotten it aside from one charge up. I see absolutely no marks or scratches on it as of yet. Oura says to just wipe with soap and water. I've heard of a special cloth if it gets scuffs, but it wasn't included. Battery life has been great. Definitely a week of use with 15% left. It takes about an hour and twenty minutes back to full. I'll probably pop it on the charger every day when I shower, then never really worry about it. The app is really nice. There is a lot of data but it's well laid out and easy to learn. It's impressive how much this little ring can track. You'll use it for tracking workouts, running, taking walks, tracking your sleep and stress levels and more. You can join up with family, friends, or coworkers with the circles for fun competitions. There's a food section so you can keep track of and better monitor what you eat through out the day. Women can monitor their cycles. After enough data it can help give warning when and if your getting sick. There's soo much stuff. I've heard a lot of people complain about the monthly six dollar fee and while it's not great, the app is soo comprehensive it's worth it. Just skip one coffee out and there's your month paid. I really think this ring will improve you're overall wellness.

It scratches very easily. Less than a week of use and its already scratched with black marks.

The ring is not worth $500+ monthly subscription, its sort of crazy the amount of general info they restrict if you're not subscribed...like any free app is more useful....and you still have a $500 ring...that's not even collecting health data to show you anymore. They have a horrendous AI Advisor which is just a chatbot that worse with your health info and insights than ANY OTHER OPTION. Just a horrible experience all around.

Got a defective one. Understandable. But the customer service is awful!! ***screen shots in photos*** Ring does not auto detect workouts, even after 75 minutes at the gym I don’t reach the low end of an activity goal? Support says they understand my disappointment, but will not help beyond explaining the technology to me. Said they would have someone reach out to me, they didn’t. Reached back out- no history of me chatting with them. I will be returning to BestBuy and getting another Apple Watch.

The Oura ring is quite impressive. I’ve used watches and bands before but I really think this is the way to go. I was skeptical at first but I absolutely love it. Build quality is amazing. I lift weights 5 days a week and I haven’t had any issues with scratches on the ceramic or anything yet. I mainly use machines at the gym that typically have plastic, rubber or foam handles so that may be why. I’m a little nervous to put it up against a steel/metal dumbbell or barbell. That being said, I think if you use gloves, you won’t have to worry about it. I also was able to get a polishing cloth sent by Oura for free but I haven’t had to use it yet. Setup was quick and easy and the app is very intuitive and easy to use. I enjoy using it. It’s a little overwhelming with all the different tabs, features, and options but once you go through it a couple of times it’s easy to get the hang of. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve discovered everything it has to offer because each time I go through the app, I learn something new. It is very comfortable. I don’t like to wear anything. Not watches, not rings, bands or anything. I just find it more comfortable to wear nothing but this ring is surprisingly comfortable. They say it’s a little thicker than the metal Oura rings but you get used to it. Or at least I did. It doesn’t bother me at all to wear it all day and night. I really wanted it to keep track of my sleep so I was a bit worried about comfort and wearing it at night but I’ve been wearing it for over a week and have no complaints on comfort at all. I wear a smart watch as well and I can tell the statistics of the ring appear to be very accurate. Especially the sleep metrics. I know when I have a bad nights sleep and every time, the Oura ring has been spot on letting me know I had a bad nights sleep and why. It’s also very accurate when I’ve had a good nights sleep. Activity, workouts, everything. The health metrics appear to be very accurate. Battery life is great. I will typically charge it when I take a shower or need to take it off to do something and don’t want to get it dirty or scratch it. It charges very fast. I’ve been able to wear it pretty much all day everyday with no battery issues by using this routine. Overall I feel like this is a great investment if you are wanting to track your health metrics and do it comfortably. I like the ring for this because it’s a no distraction, almost invisible way to track your health. It’s the only purpose. I don’t get texts or email alerts with it. It’s sole purpose is to track your health. I highly recommend it!

This is my first time using an Oura smart ring. Into it with low expectations because I already have an apple watch that tells me health information. However, the Oura ring goes into way more detail and gives advice which is much better than the apple watch. Make sure you use the Oura sizing kit before purchasing. I'm glad I did because I would have bought the wrong size ring without that kit. The price for the kit is a small amount compared to the ring itself. Setting up the Oura ring was very simple. Download the app and following the instructions. My ring needed a firmware update that it automatically did on its own. After that just start wearing the device so it can track your information. It will take a few days of wearing to get you targeted information about yourself. The ring itself is a little thick, but that's because it has to house a battery and sensors, etc. I normally do not wear rings, so it took me a few days to get used to. Thankfully the ring itself is pretty resilient as I have smashed it into things, scrapped it on things, etc and it still looks brand new. I know the metal rings show wear, but I think the ceramic will stay looking good for a long time. My biggest issue is sleep. I have trouble falling asleep or feeling well rested the next day. I cannot wear my apple watch at night to track issues because it needs to be charged. The Oura ring has lasted me 6-8 days on a charge, so this is perfect for using to track sleep. The detailed sleep information has been helpful as I'm seeing a trend of why I'm struggling. I have noticed that I'm laying in bed for a long time without falling asleep. This is because I'm playing on my phone/tablet for hours. The Oura ring app showed my sleep efficiency not great, because of my endless scrolling on my phone. So with that information I can slowly start to make changes to help get better sleep efficiency. The information is presented in such an easy way to see everything. I'm sure my apple watch can do something similar, but Oura just makes it simple to see the issues (highlighted in red in the app) and gives you information on why it could be happened and ways to remedy the issue. Since wearing the Oura ring and making the suggested changes, I have noticed that I'm starting to feel better and sleeping better. This is huge for me as I have seen many doctors who only want to prescribe medications and not get the root cause of the issue. The Oura ring app tracks more than just sleep and is a whole-body tracking device. I was really surprised at how it picked up that I was stressed. Earlier today I was having trouble logging into a website that is very important, and I was getting stressed/frustrated that I couldn't get in. When I looked at the Oura ring app it showed that information along with the time the stress happened. I really love how accurate and precise the information that the Oura ring collects and displays in the app. I know in my prior job I was stressed out about certain aspects so having it accurately measure stress would have helped me figure out the exact triggers to possibly change them. I'm so happy to have this ring as I really do see it making changes for the positive in my life. It is a little pricey, but the amount of detailed information along with help to make fixes is really worth it to me. If you are looking for an all-in-one health tracker I would recommend an Oura ring over a smart watch. The Oura ring has so much great information and help in the app that it just blows a smart watch out of the water.
