Love it! My kids decided to buy Oura ring for Mother’s Day and I really like it!

The Oura Ring has provided me with valuable insights into my overall health and sleep patterns.

amazing purchase if you’re a gym girly! tracks your sleep, steps and workouts.

This has helped me with monitoring my health! I am so glad I am able to monitor everything at my fingertips!

I wanted this ring for sleep tracking and for sports tracking like hockey and hiking and etc. I researched ice hockey in particular directly from the Oura site. It says it was fine for Hockey. They were WRONG. First skate with it and it fell apart! Felt looseness in my glove and when I took it off, I now had four parts…. 20 minutes in. Smh Apparently, others are having this happen as well. I should have researched more. I’ll be returning this $400 piece of garbage.

Love my oura data. I get much better info from the ring (over my Apple Watch) i have the Stealth size 8

Worked great for the first 6 weeks now I need to send it back. It won’t stay connected to the app

I like it. It fits good and does what I need it to do. The only thing I wished was that it was thinner. Maybe in the next releases.

Was easy to setup and start using. Still getting familiar with app, seems to be user friendly

I love the idea and everything about the ring except it scratches easily.

I wanted to like this but I just don't it isn't accurate and the fit isn't good it will fit one day and then the next it is to small I don't know if it is cutting circulation and my finger swells or what is happening but I don't like it. I have figured I'm the type of person who likes to see the progress and what is happening without pulling out my phone so this is a no for me.

I love this! So helpful to track stress, health markers, and sleep.

Quick Overview ================================= I was very curious to see how a smart ring would fit into a "smart fitness device" ecosystem. They've been out for years - led by Oura - and this is their 4th version. The Oura Smart Ring 4. With no display and no vibration for feedback or notifications, could this be useful and/or replace a smartwatch or fitness band? Overall build ================================= After completing the sizing using Oura's sizing kit, you'll order your Oura Smart Ring 4 which comes with a charging stand that the ring sits perfectly into. I chose the "brushed silver" version and it looks and feels great! The etching they did on the surface somehow really catches the light while looking matte. It's hard to describe, but it really is interesting to look at! I read that it's made entirely of titanium so it should be quite sturdy. Externally, you'll see a small divot or dimple. That helps you wear the ring properly. That dimple should face in on your palm side. If you look inside the ring, you may catch some of the lights and sensors that line the inside portion. There are more sensors than the previous generations and should account/allow for some of the ring spinning that will happen during a normal day. Whenever I could, I tried to make sure the dimple was facing into the palm side of my hand. Once you set the ring onto the charging stand and plug in a USB-C cable, the light will glow and you can then open the Oura app (Android, for me) to set up the ring. It should see the ring right away and you'll complete the setup by answering a few questions and allow the application to access the things it needs to track your location and activity. Once that was done, it was time to do testing - which just means wear it for 5 days or more, and see how it goes. The ring is waterproof, so taking a shower or bath is no problem. Performance ================================= In testing, I wore the ring for 3 days before the battery indicator (in the app) showed less than 30%. At that time, I charged it and put it back on when it was full. Supposedly I could have pushed this for 2-3 more days, but I didn't want it to end up dead if I was out and about. As you can imagine, since the ring has no display, no indicator lights, nor any vibration for notification, you must check the app for everything. Luckily, it's a pretty nice app! At the top, you'll see things like "Readiness" (did you have a good, restful sleep?), "Sleep", "Activity", and "Heart Rate" so you can get some "at a glance" info, and below that you can dig into things like your actual activity, heart rate, and sleep. As you click into each one, you can get more details about your sleep quality, REM sleep, deep sleep, etc. During the setup, you may have selected some of your favorite activities. For me, I chose tennis, table tennis, and walking. As it tracks activities throughout the day, it will make a best guess regarding what you might have done. Later, you can check the app and confirm or edit what it guessed. I really liked that compared to my Fitbit Charge 5 which doesn't do much regarding activities it doesn't recognize. The 3 sections at the bottom include Today, Vitals and My Health. Today gives you your daily snapshot of activities as expected. Vitals lets you dig into the stats a bit more, while My Health is supposed to give you more updated data after gathering data for up to 2 weeks. As of now, since I've been testing for a week, it says that each category is still "calibrating". After gathering this data, I'd assume it could get a more accurate baseline of my activity and stress levels to better alert me when I may be feeling stressed, etc. Stats-wise, if I compare this to my Fitbit Charge 5, the steps are usually within 1-2% so I'd say it's pretty accurate. My sleep tracking seems more accurate with the Oura 4 because my Fitbit will mistakenly think that reading in bed is sleeping time! With the Oura Smart Ring 4, I haven't had to edit or correct the sleep times. Apparently some independent studies have shown the Oura is very accurate (5% more than Apple Watch and 10% more than Fitbit). All of this accuracy and comfort does come at a price. The price of the ring which is up there with a high-end smartwatch, and the subscription which is $70 annually. I do love the data and the application as a whole, but it's up to you if you think that price is worth it for data and a device with no display or native notification capabilities. Conclusion ================================= Could this be your only fitness tracking device if you're somewhat of a minimalist and like your classic analog watches? Yes, I think it gives you a wealth of accurate data that you'd have to check in the app, of course. Could this be your secondary fitness tracker if you already have a smartwatch? Maybe, but the value proposition gets quite a bit smaller. It's within 1-10% of a smartwatch's accuracy, but it has no display nor vibration for notifications. It does have a great app that has a lot of information, and it's comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I'd recommend this highly for those that don't want to invest in a smartwatch or fitness tracker since it's very unobtrusive and gets you nicely presented, accurate data. As a "backup" or secondary device to a smartwatch, I'd say get it if you don't like your current sleep tracking stats (I'm looking at you, Fitbit!).

So happy with this purchase. The insights it providers are so awesome.
