Oura Ring 5 offers even more features and personalized tracking.
“Oura Ring 5 is a big step toward our vision of giving every body a voice. By reimagining Oura Ring 5 to be smaller and easier to wear, and pairing it with our most advanced software yet, we’re making it possible for many more people to wear Oura every day—and to benefit from the personalized, predictive health insights that come with it,” Tom Hale, CEO at Oura, said in a statement.
The new Oura Ring 5 is 40% smaller than previous generations, making it the smallest smart ring. It is lighter in order to be more comfortable both day and night.
It also has upgraded, precision sensors to achieve better skin contact, greater consistency, and improved accuracy across more finger types and skin tones.
Alongside the new ring launch, Oura is also releasing a new portfolio of software that promises to make the app more proactive, personalized, and useful in daily life.
New software features include:
- Health radar: This includes two new proactive capabilities in addition to the existing experiences — blood pressure signals and nighttime breathing.
- Live activity tracking: This lets you start a workout directly in the app and view key metrics in real time. It also improves the accuracy of automatic activity detection for more than 40 activities, including low-motion workouts like yoga and Pilates.
- GLP-1 insights: This brings together information people often track in multiple apps, such as dosing, side effects, and weight. It provides a single longitudinal view of your GLP-1 journey, along with Oura insights, so you can see how your medication and daily habits work together over time.
Oura Ring 5 also offers the same long battery life as previous generations. This smaller ring still allows 6 to 9 days between charges. It is also waterproof up to 100 meters.
The Oura Ring 5 comes in six finishes and starts at $399.
