Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I recently ordered the Midnight Ceramic Edition and was very impressed with the overall quality. The ceramic finish gives it a premium, elegant look, while the craftsmanship feels durable and well-made. The design is sleek and modern, making it a standout piece. Ordering was straightforward, and the product arrived as expected. Overall, I’m very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend the Midnight Ceramic Edition to anyone looking for a stylish, high-quality option.

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.

I have been using the Oura ring for the past few weeks and have had no problems with battery life or connectivity. I love the color and comfort.

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!

The Oura Ring 4 has been a great purchase from Best Buy. It tracks sleep, activity, and readiness with impressive accuracy, and the design is sleek and comfortable enough for everyday wear. The battery life is solid, and the insights are genuinely useful. Overall, I’m very satisfied and feel it was well worth the investment. Highly recommend it to others.

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.

Ring really gives really good information on your daily activities. Tracks in real time, alerts you when you're idle gir extended periods of time. Tracks sleeping habits and much more. Really good for people recovering from major surgeries. Ask me how I know... lol. Best purchase I've made this year!

The Oura ring is exceptional in how much health and exercise information it provides. It also gives you a heads up when you need to take it easy, It's a great addition to my wearables. The teal color makes it fashionable too!

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!

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.

I bought this for my wife, and she really love it, fit great, funtions are perfect and accurate, nice design. Long life for battery.

Best Christmas gift to my wife, amazing color. Way more comfortable and durable then the metallic Rose Gold Oura Ring 3 she had.

I was extremely pleased that Best Buy had the ring sizes and colors available so that I could make my decision quickly. I ordered the pink ceramic ring and received it in a couple of days. The process was seamless and I haven't taken the ring off since. I would definitely go back to Best Buy for all of my electronic purchases.

Love my ring. Super comfortable and lightweight. Tracks my sleep well. Very happy with my purchase.

Ring works as expected and looks great. Health tracking is great as well

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.

This Oura Ring has honestly been life changing. The insights it gives on sleep, recovery, and overall health are super helpful and actually make you more aware of your habits. It’s comfortable to wear, looks clean, and fits into everyday life without feeling intrusive. The data feels accurate and easy to understand, and it’s helped me make better decisions around rest and recovery. Definitely one of the best health-focused purchases I’ve made.

Does exactly what it says it does and it's very comfortable.
