It's either buying or subscription for me. Oura wants to have both, and that's a no-no for me.

Thanks for your review. I think requiring customers to pay a monthly subscription fee to access all the features of the product is unfortunately not a great selling point.

Great review yet again! I agree with you that wearing a watch to sleep isn’t near as ‘free’ or comfortable as the ring. I have an Instinct 2X and Oura and love them both! One of the reasons I like the Garmin so much is for Training Readiness. However, if you don’t wear it to sleep, then it, the Body Battery, and the HRV are redundant. Annoying also that Oura and Garmin don’t talk to each other!

@bradleytipp2750 9 ай бұрын

The ring is another way of confirming readings from your 'other device'. Plus it has temp features that will alert you to raised body temps overnight. Personally I like having my Aura and Garmin. Both do different jobs, and both are effective.

I also have a Garmin and have been considering getting an Oura as well. How does Apple Health cope with two devices? Which one sends data to Apple health?

Most people won’t need an Oura ring, as fitness watches do the same stuff. You need to have a very specific use case, and need, for this product. I am one of those people, and am a happy Oura ring user of 4 years. Great overview of your use/need for this product, Desfit!

What is your specific need?

@LucasH567 7 ай бұрын

@@GreenlifeFin hey! I wanted to track recovery and sleep metrics, and overall daily activity. But I didn’t want to wear a smart watch during the day (I love my old analog watch!). And I don’t like to sleep with something on my wrist (so didn’t want a whoop strap). So the form factor of a ring was spot on for my needs!

I only wear mechanical watches so the Oura ring is perfect for me.

How has your oura ring held up over the years? I'm really interested in ordering one but I'm concerned if I'll have to fork out another $500 (I would like the gold one) in two years when it dies

I can say the same. The Garmin watches are more accurate, more functional, and more comfortable. Can't find any reason to use the ring. But it's just for me.

I track all my workouts with Garmin and a HR Chest Strap. Since both Garmin and Oura sync with Apple Health, can my Garmin workouts sync to Oura with calories, heart rate, etc info and Oura will use that info for recovery score???

Hi my question is which watch is better for me. I’m football player ⚽️ and I do extra training sessions like jogging, intervals, bike, swimming, gym or just play football. I’m wondering about polar pacer pro and forerunner 255. What do you think and maybe you’ve got some different option for me. Please respond 🙏

Hmm, not sure what would be ideal. A ring doesn't seem safe and a chest strap or arm heart rate strap seems like they could have issues with body contact.

honestly, i will never understand that you need a gadget to inform you whether you had a good sleep or not. Call me crazy, but i know it right away i wake up. For the training stats and planing, just a good Garmin is enough.

@scriptosaurusrex 8 ай бұрын

Really hate subscriptions. It's bad enough that they want me yo to pay to access my own health data, but then they have the audacity to expect me to pay for the hardware upfront and subsidise their businesses too. If you must do a subscription, the ring should be part of the deal, including returns and upgrades at no further cost. That way they can actually recycle the product at the end of its life. I like the idea of an oura, but it ia not going to happen until they adopt a less draconian business model.

Expensive, very bulky. Especially for lady like me with short fat finger. It look extremely ugly on me. But I believe it looks ok with ppl have slim finger. But the key reason I return it was it is so uncomfortable!
