Customer Ratings & Reviews

The ceramic coating on the Oura Ring makes it look and feel more like jewelry than an electronic monitoring device. I have worn my Oura Ring for about a week now and I have gotten mixed results with it especially when it comes to being able to interpret my exercise results in the mobile app. When monitoring daily activities like walking and doing simple task or sleeping it seems to be reasonably accurate but with cardio/aerobic workouts I find it less informative. I feel the ring is more of a data gathering device that over time provides insight into your overall health. It doesn’t provide real time data during an activity and I don’t feel that it provides enough post exercise information that can be used to improve fitness. The Oura app can be overwhelming and the yearly subscription cost may make it a big negative for some. Bottom line is I would recommend the Oura ring for someone who is more interested in their overall health status. I would not recommend it for someone who is mainly concerned about their exercise fitness. Sleeping: So far I think the ring has been fairly accurate when it comes to monitoring my sleep data. I had one night where the ring was nearly 2 hours late starting my sleep cycle and I assume that was because the ring rotated off center and thus didn’t record the information properly. Because of this I have become more vigilante on the ring’s alignment and this not necessarily a good thing. On the plus side it hasn’t confused my inactivity while reading at night as going to sleep and it has captured my afternoon naps accurately when I take one longer than 15 minutes. Exercise: I wear the ring everywhere I go including the gym and so far no scratches or mars to the finish. When I go to the gym I don’t take my phone with me, I rely on my iwatch and this can be an issue. If my activities are not recognized by the ring I have to add them manually in the app when I get home and doing this can definitely impact the accuracy of the workout data. The ring does not recognize my indoor bike training and while it does captures the heart rate data it seems to be lower/less responsive than the levels my other devices report. I have about a 50/50 chance of the ring recognizing the elliptical workouts but no luck at all having it recognize strength training workouts. What is funny is that it has recognized me doing “housework” and yardwork activities due to an elevated heart rate and motion. Fit and Feel: The ring is thick and has some weight to it. The recommendation is to wear it on one of your first three fingers but I found wearing it on my index finger like they show in the ads to be more problematic because I lead with my index finger area when reaching which means it hits more things. I highly recommend getting the ring sizing kit and wear the sizing ring for a couple of days to figure out which finger fits best and wont impede your hand motions. The ceramic coating feels very smooth and really shines but I do worry about dinging it on something. So far I have worn it to do housework, yard work, at the gym and on the bike all without any scratches. I’ve had it in soap and water as well as covered in hand sanitizer without any issues. There is a small notch/indent on the ring that should face your palm for proper alignment. In the dark this can be more difficult to verify especially if you are in bed. My ring fits reasonably tight but due to the smooth surface it does rotate so I find myself checking it often. Overall the fit and feel of this ring is good and not an issue. Oura App: The Oura app has four primary health categories: Readiness, Sleep, Activity and Heart Rate. It then uses the data from the ring to assign a number value and a little icon to indicate what it believes your health value for that category is. Oura explains what data contributes to the calculation without disclosing the algorithm. If you want to get more specific information on the category or its contributors you have to go into the subcategory pages. Bottom line is that this app has lots of graphs and subcategories that at times make it more difficult to get to the actual information that I as a user want to see. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t find the app very intuitive and it is inundate with so many subcategories that it becomes difficult to figure out where the really important information is located. Hopefully with time I will be able to figure out the app but so far it’s been a frustration.

This is a fantastic product! I’ve worn it for about a week now and it’s given me fantastic insight into a variety of my health concerns including sleep quality and stress levels. Setup was super easy and charging takes a few minutes for 4-5 days worth of data collecting. The ring is insanely comfortable, and I’ve had several compliments on its look even in the first week of ownership. I was concerned about a ceramic ring’s durability, but that concern was not needed. This is built like a tank and hasn’t shown a single scratch despite banging into doorknobs, doing dishes, or even yardwork. Comparing its data to that collected by my Apple Watch over the same time period, the two are roughly within 5% of each other, so I’m reassured about the accuracy of the readings, and this lets me keep my watch recharging at night without fear of losing crucial health data. Setting up the ring and the app was super simple. It pairs in seconds and the rest is just typical sign-up info like any other new account. Easy for anyone of any age to set up and start their journey to a healthier lifestyle. Strongly recommend!!!!!!

My Overall Impression The Oura Ring 4 Ceramic seems nice, but I don’t know how much I trust the data it gathers. The app presentation is confusing. I do like the new midnight blue color that became available for the fall of 2025. What’s New The Oura Ring 4 Ceramic is an updated version of the Oura Ring 4 with new colors for the fall of 2025. The four new colors available are: cloud, tide, pet and midnight blue. I have the midnight blue which is a dark navy color with a gray hue. I like the color more than I expected and it seems to match well with a lot of the clothes that I wear. The Setup There’s not a lot to the set up. My ring arrived with around an 80% charge. You download the Oura app and connect the ring through Bluetooth. A key thing to know about the Oura Ring 4 is that you are required to activate a subscription to use it. More about that later. Once the subscription has been set up you can continue in the app. The app will ask you questions about your goals of how you expect to use your ring. Once everything is complete, the ring will continue to communicate with the phone sending it data to process. Oura Subscription You can’t just wear the Oura Ring and collect data. You are required to activate a subscription of which there are currently two choices: an Annual or a Monthly. That subscription takes the data and not only stores it but also interprets it in various ways. I didn’t know that a subscription was required to use this, so I was really surprised that I had to pay (after the initial 1 month trial) to use my new wearable tech. Data Collection I’m not going to name every type of data that the ring collects, but some of the data points are expected such as temperature, heart rate, and steps. Other things measured such as sleep time, sleep efficiency, heart rate variability, activity rates (calories burned), and stress are monitored, but I am not sure how they are determined. I have been able to determine that some of the data appears to be incorrect. • Steps – I also wear a smart watch that monitors steps. I chose a highly active day and compared the two step counts. My watch was 1600 steps higher than the ring. With as active as I was, I believe the watch. • Stress – Supposedly this ring can detect stress levels. I know that I have had several high stress moments today, and they are not reflected correctly in my chart / graph. Other Data Input The Oura Ring 4 allows for some manual input and connected input. Meals – You can log in meals. Activities – You can log in specific activities. Glucose – You can link certain glucose monitors to the app. The overall goal for the app appears to be that it’s a final collection point and it will process and connect the data together for a more complete picture of what’s happening with your health. It will also provide recommendations for ways to change your health or tell you that what you are doing is good overall. Data Presentation The data presentation needs work. I can tell that certain data types have been grouped together to create a narrative for that component of your health, but the way that it’s graphically shown could be better. There’s usually a graphic showing a bar with your high and low points. You can press a spot on the graph and it will create a line showing information at that point in time. The problem is that point of time may represent 15-30 minutes instead of the minute that you want to measure. It is particularly frustrating when you want to see the high or low points of the graph, but it doesn’t snap to them. Also, I’ve been using the ring for about a week, and certain data point still haven’t populated. Charging The Oura Ring 4 comes with a charging stand. It connects using a USB-C to USB-C cable that’s over 3 feet long. This model is expected to run 5 to 8 days on a full charge. My experience was similar to that. Final Conclusion I am giving the Oura Ring 4 Ceramic a 3 star rating. I like the new color, and it’s a neat idea. However, I’m not sure that I trust the data that I am seeing and there’s a required subscription just to use it.

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.

I’ve been a huge fan of the oura ring for quite some time. I’ve had my generation 3 ring for years and have loved the health insights its given me over that time. The generation 4 rings have been out for a while and I didn’t upgrade until Oura’s newest release, the Oura ring 4 Ceramic. I was thinking about upgrading, but when I saw the colors, I knew I wouldn’t continue to resist the urge for a change. Similar to before, the oura ring ships in a small box. It comes with everything you need to get started. Of course you get the ring. There is also a redesigned charging base, at least compared to the generation 3 ring I had. You also get a USB-C to USB-C charging cord. Once you have the base plugged in and the ring on the charger, you are ready to go. With all things technology related, there’s an app to download. With the oura app downloaded and the ring on the charger, you’ll be able to easily connect your ring to your account in the app. When you put the ring on the charger, it will go into Bluetooth search mode and you use the oura app to guide you in the connection. It takes all of 30 second to 1 minute and you can put your ring on and begin your tracking journey. The 4th generation oura rings added improved sensors, called smart sensing, compared to the 3rd generation rings, which allow the oura ring to track 50+ health metrics, and give it the ability to add new features/metrics in the future. In the simplest terms, the oura ring and the app will track and measure your bio stats in 3 categories, giving you a daily score. Every day you’ll get a readiness score, a sleep score, and an activity score. With the add on oura membership, you get significantly more insight into your data on sleep, overall health, heart health, body temperature tracking, trends over time, and more. The membership is a nice to have, not an absolute must, but you will get a lot less info about your bio stats and limit the usefulness of the ring overall. All of this is the same for all of the 4th generation rings. The “old” 4th generation rings come in several metallic colors. The “new” 4th generation ceramic rings come in four beautiful colors, that all stand out and pop. It’s much more eye catching than the same old same old silver or gold that have been around for years. While I was a fan of all 4 colors, I love the midnight color, and that’s what I’ve got now. It’s a deep blue and it’s gorgeous. The ceramic finish looks better, the oura ring ceramic fits better, and feels like an improvement over the materials and finishes on other oura rings. Truth be told, from a functional standpoint, there is no difference I am aware of across the entire 4th generation ring family. It’s the same sensors, the same 5-8 day battery life, same connection and interaction with the app. If you are new to oura or are using a 3rd generation ring, the new ring will be an improvement in all of those areas. Beauty is ultimately in the eye of the beholder and you’ll have to decide whether the aesthetics of the oura ring ceramic are worth the extra money, because it’s all about the finish in this new offering. All I can say is the oura ring ceramic is a beautifully made tech item that is worth a look and a touch, but you might not be able to take your eye off of it, put it down, or take it off.

Great product! I highly recommend buying this ring if you are looking to have an efficient fitness tracker that is sleek and comfortable. Battery life is also an amazing bonus!

I added the Oura ring to monitor my sleep and stress. I was skeptical at first but enjoy the data insights the ring gives me. It's easier to sleep with and feel the ring does well with monitoring my sleep and stress patterns. The ring has given me better insight into my day and night and how it impacts my overall health. I highly recommend the ring. I love the ceramic because I was concerned about the ring getting scratched through daily use.

This is great, I work night shifts and I really wanted to track how much sleep i get, and the smart watch was uncomfortable so after some research I Ianded on the oura ring ceramic and nobody is thinks its a tracker cause i looks like actual jewelry. Plus added features like period tracking has been so great as well. If you're thinking of getting one; just get it. But sidenote if you want a fitness tracking device like running and such. This is not the product for you, check out Garmin.

This is a wonderful purchase and I couldn’t be happier with the product for my best-friend. This item has really changed the way she views her health and sleep quality. Thanks to this ring she’s able to fully track all of her progress through its app while also being able to wear something simple enough that isn’t too flashy. I couldn’t recommend this ring enough for anyone who just wants to simply track their heart rate and sleeping patterns as she struggles a lot with her sleep schedule. I swear the future of technology always surpasses our expectations.

Purchased this to get better sleep data. So far I feel more confident that this ring is capturing more accurate data than another tracker I had used for years. Love the smooth ceramic coating and the sleek design.

The pros: it's pretty confortable, it looks really sleek and polished, and it's far less bulky than wearing a smartwatch to bed to measure sleep metrics. The bad: customer service is AWFUL. You're forced to try and troubleshoot with an AI Chatbot that has the intelligence of a 1940s Sunbeam toaster. There are no contact numbers to call and speak to a real person. You can eventually get the chatbot to connect you to a chat agent, but even that isn't much help for the issues I've had with the ring. For starters, you have to pay a $6 a month subscription to use the ring. You can't do anything without the subscription. 6 bucks a month isn't terrible, but the subscription isn't worth it when the ring doesn't function as promised. There are issues with it missing workouts (the workaround they suggest? Manually record the workouts. As in, take your phone out of your pocket, open up the app, and tell it you're about to workout). That, to me, defeats the purpose and this ring is touted as being smart enough to automatically detect workouts. Mine has also, after the first 2 weeks, started missing HUGE gaps in monitoring certain metrics. We're talking 2 hour gaps where it didn't detect any HR data, chunks of stress monitoring missing, and also sleep data being incomplete. Support has suggested that maybe my fingers are cold (the gaps happen at random times, every single day). I work as a chef, so I can promise you my hands are not cold. They've said it could be that the ring fit is too loose. So, i tried it on a different finger - where it was so snug that it was almost uncomfortable. They've had me "soft reset" the ring multiple times (seriously, they pulled the "have you tried turning it off and on again?"!!). Everything they've suggested, I have done. Here we are almost 3 months later, I've paid for 3 months of their subscription and still have flawed and missing data. They are stumped, I keep getting told that they've escalated the issue and someone will contact me soon. Still waiting. But they did add 3 free months of the subscription service on to my account (allegedly) to help ease the sting of me paying a subscription for a ring that doesn't work. I don't have faith that they will admit that the ring is faulty, and that I am stuck with a $500 ring that barely does what it promised. Best Buy will let you return the ring within 2 weeks, however, my issues started 2 days AFTER that window closed. And getting Oura to admit the huge issues with this ring is next to impossible. So, I will save you the frustrations and forewarn you: the pricetag versus performance is not worth it. If you DO have cold hands/poor circulation, you will definitely have issues with this ring. I've also been told by others online that if you happen to have thicker fingers or darker skintone, you may also have issues with this ring dependably gathering the information needed. Others have said they have the same issue with missing workouts, with "no data" chunks for Heart rate and stress levels, and the symptom radar feature being totally useless and missing signs of strain impacting your health. I don't know if other smart rings are better, as Oura IS actually pretty accurate (when it DOES actually measure stuff). But, considering Oura is also far more expensive (considering the subscription and the hefty pricetag on the ring itself), I would expect it to be far superior too! I would not purchase this ever again. I'd rather have continued to wear my bulky Galaxy watch to bed (and dealt with the indentation on my wrist) and gotten more accurate readings and data and SAVED the $500+. Would not recommend.

I wear this every day. It is co comfortable. I wear mine on my thumb which allows me to wear my other rings and it looks like a nice piece of jewelry. The stats are fun to wake up to and track too!

This a great product not only is it stylish it tracks everything for you in regard to your health and sleeping patterns. This is great gift for yourself or someone else. Highly recommend.

The color is very nice. It's a soft pink color. I got this one to replace my original Stealth color after i lost weight. Works great. Sturdy so far. No complaints. Will definitely buy again

I have absolutely loved this! More accurate than my Apple Watch was and I love that I can wear it day and night. I usually charge it while I shower and the ring hasn’t died. Extremely comfortable.

Very elegant color to pick, looks really nice on hand but you will notice slight weight on the fingers and space between the fingers.

I’ve been really impressed with the Oura Ring. It tracks my health in a very advanced and detailed way, especially sleep, recovery, and overall readiness. One of the best features is how accurately it can predict when I’m about to get sick. I often get early warnings before I even feel symptoms. It’s comfortable to wear, easy to use, and the insights feel genuinely useful rather than overwhelming. If you’re serious about understanding your health and catching issues early, this ring is absolutely worth it.

Beautiful color and great data! I’m loving my new Oura ring

I've owned the ring for a month. It's great for monitoring my sleep patterns, hourly stress levels, heart rate, and exercise levels. I typically charge it about once a week.

I’ve been using the Oura Ring for a while now, and it has completely changed the way I understand my health and daily habits. What I love most is how easy it is to wear — it’s lightweight, comfortable, and doesn’t feel bulky like a smartwatch, so I can wear it 24/7 without thinking about it. The sleep tracking is by far my favorite feature. It gives really detailed insights into sleep stages, readiness, and recovery, which has helped me notice patterns I never paid attention to before. I’ve become more aware of how stress, late nights, and even small routine changes affect my energy the next day. I also appreciate how the Oura Ring focuses on overall wellness rather than just steps or workouts. The readiness score and activity balance feel realistic and encouraging, not overwhelming. The app is easy to understand and presents the data in a way that actually makes sense, even if you’re not super into fitness tracking. Overall, the Oura Ring feels more like a personal health assistant than a fitness gadget. If you’re looking to improve your sleep, manage stress, and better understand your body without wearing a bulky device, I’d definitely recommend it.
