Oura Ring 5 Overview
The Oura Ring 5 replaces the Oura Ring 4 ($349 on Amazon) and, with a thickness of 2.28 millimetres, is up to 40 percent more compact than its predecessor, making it even more comfortable to wear. The battery life is increased to six to nine days and the sensors are said to work even more precisely.
Performance and Build
According to Oura, the heart rate sensor detects the pulse with 99 percent accuracy, while sleep should be detected with 95 percent precision. The Oura Ring 5 is made of titanium and is water-resistant to a depth of 100 meters, so it can also be worn for swimming. The basic functionality does not change, because while Oura introduces new software features, these are also available on the Oura Ring 3 and 4.
Health Metrics and Tracking
The Oura Ring 5 provides over 50 health metrics. The Smart Ring is capable of sleep phase tracking and can provide bedtime recommendations. The ring automatically recognizes workouts from cycling to basketball, measures the active calories burned, evaluates daily form and creates personalized activity goals. In combination with the integrated skin temperature sensor, cycle and stress tracking as well as an assessment of cardiovascular age are also possible.
