OURARing Gen3 Heritage - Silver - Size 8 - Smart Ring - Size First with Oura Ring Gen3 Sizing Kit - Sleep Tracking Wearable - Heart Rate - Fitness Tracker - 5-7 Days Battery Life

I was on the fence for a while, but decided to splurge and buy myself an Oura ring. I wish I bought it sooner! I've been an apple watch wearer for many years, but wanted more insights as I've been on a health and wellness journey. The ring was annoying at first, but now I hardly think about it or feel it. It's light weight and not obtrusively thick. I strongly recommend getting the sizing kit first and wearing the sizer for a while to get a feel for the ring. I chose to size it to fit my left pointer finger. The battery life is insane! I only have to charge it every few days. The sensors on the 3 don't hurt or feel weird or anything. I always wondered how legit this thing was, and if they could really tell what was going on but sure enough I wore it for a small inpatient procedure and my ring told me something was greatly stressing my body and I needed to take it easy! It's wild how it just knows! I also love learning about my sleep score and what effects it.

I want to start out by saying that this in no way is a fitness tracker, if you are into fitness in any way and have an Apple Watch continue to use your Apple Watch. If you are curious about your sleep, stress, your period cycle I would say this is a good purchase, and get the ring sizing kit. Also make sure you check with your insurance provider — they might just cover this.1. Sleep- this really goes into detail about how much lite, deep, and REM sleep, this also calculates how long it takes you to fall asleep, your movements throughout the night, a part of this calculates your readiness (will talk about that at the end)2. Live Heart Rate - this along with the “daytime stress feature (will do into that on 3), you can actually monitor your heart rate and do a “live” heart rate and actually feel the beats per minute, it calculates your HR in 30 minute increments. This will measure your HR at night (and it kinda calls you out if you have an elevated HR from drinking alcohol)3. Daytime stress - the app/ ring is able to calculate your HR based on stress (this will take a couple of weeks to figure out). It tells me when I’m in relaxed, engaged and stress stage, and the restored stage (how long it will take you to recover from being stressed) this has really been helpful for me especially since working from home. This plays into your Rediness score.4. Cycle Insights / Natural cycle- Ladies this one is for you if you are looking to come off hormonal birth control and/or looking to start a family or if you’re honestly just curious. I will say the more data that you provide the app on your last 6 periods the better it has predicting (but no worries if you don’t know it) will talk about the natural cycles app in a few. This will take your body temperature every day and create a graph, when you download the natural cycles app (which btw pairs wonderfully with the Oura ring) every morning you will open up the Oura ring app and allow everything to sync then it will transfer that data to your natural cycles app. There you will have Green Day’s ( your safe days for s*x), and red days when it’s not safe (unless looking to start a family I’m sure yours will be very different from mine). This will predict days of ovulation based on your body temp. And your est. next cycle. You will then fill out this form it will ask you if you’ve had s*x, bleeding (for period), LH test, ovulation symptoms and your overall “how are you feeling”. The more information you give the app the better.5. Your Readiness Score - basically everything I talked about sleep, HR, temperature, “activity” even though I don’t use it. I put my Apple Watch information into it” your stress, this calculates everything and gives you a readiness score to take on your day. It may give you advice to relax, call you out on your drinking “hey your HR was elevated did you consume alcohol or have a late light snack” sometimes it can tell you that you might be coming down with something, or that you can take the day on.I will say there are CONS— it’s a wellness ring, not a fitness ring. The app…… it’s $5.99 a month… for a ring that you pay $350 based on the ring and finish. Kind of annoying. This does scuff pretty easy (so if you wear this while working out get a ring protector).However the Pro’s outweigh the cons…. I’m able to learn a lot about my sleep I’ve got some PTSD/ insomnia from the military. I’ve been able to learn a lot about my stress and period tracking. I think this was very much worth the purchase (I did hold off for a year).

Love my Oura Ring. It has helped me track my sleeping patterns and as a result has improved my sleep. It is comfortable and fully waterproof. I wear all the time, except in the hot tub. Be sure to buy the ring sizing kit and wear the plastic ring for a few days before you buy the actual ring. You will get full credit for the ring sizing kit when you buy the ring. I am not convinced the steps algorithm is accurate. I plan to test that against my iPhone Pacer App.

I love this ring. I’ve only been having to charge it about once a week so the battery lasts. I’ve definitely dropped it a lot and nothing has stopped working so it’s fairly durable. It’s also waterproof and I’ve gone swimming with it multiple times without issue. It does get scratched easily if you don’t get the matte version but I feel like that’s to be expected of most jewelry like this. It’s very accurate in its data though and helpful in tracking sleep and monitoring heart rates. You do have to keep an oura subscription for it to work but it’s pretty cheap and worth the money.

I previously ordered a size 8 after using the ring sizer, however had to return it and order a size larger. I don’t know if it’s the sizer or the actual ring that is off. The 9 fits beautifully and I really love this ring. 4 stars because of the sizing issue, the ring gets 5 stars!

I've had this for a while now and wanted to wait to see what it does before I wrote a review. I WAS a fitbit fanatic, until now! I found the sizing kit to be accurate, the ring itself is amazing! It is intuitive once it gets to know your routine, predicts when you are getting sick, offers small reads to help with some wonky results, I love this thing. I have learned to stay active, better manage my stress, getting up early to start moving more than before, going to bed on time, and so much more! It all helps to contribute to a healthier me... I wear it in the shower, when I go swimming, no issues with being in water.

I love it! I use it everyday and have learned so much about my health. It works great with Natural Cycles non-hormonal birth control. Fit is perfect, I chose a size that fits on more than one finger so I can move it around because if not I think it traps to much moisture from washing hands, sweat, etc. when it’s left on the same finger.But 10/10 would recommend!
