So, should you upgrade to the 4 or save up to $129 on the 3?

Right now, theOura Ring 3 is just $249 at Amazondepending on the model and color you choose.

Once Oura Ring 3 stock goes, it will unlikely be restocked as the 4 takes its place.

It tracks everything from sleep and heart rate to blood oxygen and readiness.

Oura also partners with Strava and FDA-approved Natural Cycles, which is a bonus for female members.

Retail and discount pricing varies for models.Some models can be snagged for $249 down from $299.

Oura Ring 3 Heritage

The Heritage style has an iconic flat-top design.

It’s down to personal preference, but the colors differ in price.

So what are the main changes Oura made?

Oura Ring 4: $346 to $499 @ Amazon

It makes the 4 marginally more lightweight but should also improve durability.

The Oura Ring 4 comes in sizes 4 through 15, providing 4 more size options, too.

This means Oura Ring 4 should be able to collect data more accurately and limit any data gaps.

The membership for either ring is $5.99/month regardless.

Battery life is a big one to consider.

It starts with up to 7 days but more realistically lasts 4-5.

Collectively, the two apps know more about me than I do.
