Put Your Health in Your Own Hands…Literally

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.

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.

This is ring is the absolute best purchase I have ever made. It does so many things health wise and helps keep up with certain things for me. Recently I got sick and my ring told me something was straining my body the day before I was sick. The battery life is also amazing and that is a plus and it charges super quick. Its also very easy to set up when you first get it. This thing truly works and I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

I am very pleased with this product. The technology is accurate and thorough. The ring is very comfortable to wear. At first, I was first concerned about the durability of the finish and being ceramic, but I am completely satisfied with it. I was in multiple situations where it should have gotten scratched, but it didn't! I did have a black mark on it, in which I thought was a scratch, but the cleaning pad buffed the mark right off! The ring is beautiful!

It was great, perfect fit, and everything. The only downside to the O-ring is that you have to pay for a membership, but if you’re OK with that, then it’s a great fit for you.

largely positive, highlighting its ability to turn biometric data (sleep, HRV, temp) into conversational, actionable health advice, helping users understand patterns, manage stress, adjust schedules (like jet lag), and even spot early illness, though some users find it basic or wish for deeper functions like meal planning, making it a powerful, personalized wellness coach.

I’ve had my ring for about 3 weeks now and I am loving it. It’s still getting use to some of my habits but for the most part it’s been tracking great! I love that it senses your body needs rest or that it’s fighting something and is so accurate on sleep etc. I’m hoping this will help me with my health in 2026! I would definitely buy again!

Love this ring! It’s beautiful for starters. It tracks literally everything you need to track. I wanted it mainly for the sleep data because Apple won’t fix their Apple Watch battery where you don’t have to charge it every night. The battery on this ring lasts for days. I would definitely recommend it to anyone!

I love my Oura ring. I upgraded to a generation 3 to a 4. I gave my other generation 3 to my friend who has been wanting one and she loves it. I bought a generation 4 for my boyfriend and best friend for Christmas and they are equally in love with their ring.

Three weeks in, and I’m obsessed with my ring. The blue ceramic looks amazing—way more polished for work events than my sports watch ever did. Every feature I’ve used so far has been great. Buying at the Brookfield location was super easy, and the staff member who helped me knew exactly what they were talking about.

I love my ring so much! It has helped predict when I was getting sick and how I need to rest after a stressful day. Love the sleep tracking as well it brings me so much more clarity knowing what’s going on with my body.
I would recommend this to a friend
