To add to this is there any interest in making smart scale videos? Theres so many scales from fitness tracker companies, withings, fitbit, Huawei, amazfit Usually they range from 49-399 But i think having a really good QUANTIFIED analysis on these smart scales would be an amazing addition to your channel
My personal combination is the Oura ring and a polar h10 for workouts. It's all synchronized via Google Fit. Taking the Oura ring off during workouts protects it from being damaged, so it's a win-win for me 👍🏼
Your videos just make all the others reviews on smart health devices irrelevant! Very good work! Thanks for all the effort, I hope you get all the due reward!
These are very insightful. I would love to see a video verifying the accuracy of the temperature readings of the Oura and the Ultra. Last night, the Oura said I had a higher temperature while the Ultra showed that everything was fine.
Thanks for your reviews. Smart ring is a great wearable. It'd be great if you can review the accuracy of other smart ring alternatives like Circular ring, Ringconn, Ultrahuman, etc. thanks
Old geezer here (72 years). Have my Oura Ring Gen 3 since Feb 2022. Magnificent device! It picks up my sleep and most of my naps beautifully! Very, very satisfied! Terrific video, Rob!
So honestly. I can probably add 10% to my total deep sleep time and time and a half my REM to get a little closer to the ideal metrics. Makes me feel better because I was always coming up short on REM, but now it appears that is likely not the case.
Hey, I have a question regarding the heart rate monitoring results during "spinning" for Xiaomi Mi Band 7. Why, in the test conducted 10 months ago in the video titled "Mi Band 7 Scientific Review," did the "correlation (R)" coefficient come out above 90%? And in the video recorded 5 months later, namely "Best Smartwatch for Every Budget! Scientific Health Tracking Review of 75 Watches (2022)," why did the "correlation (R)" coefficient drop below 70%? Can you explain the reason for this difference? Software updates, in principle, are expected to improve the performance of fitness trackers rather than drastically reduce it.
Hey Rob, is it deliberately that you seem to go to sleep late at night? The recommended time to go to bed(for optimal health/performance) is between 22 - 23:00! 😉😁
Haha. Good point Daniel. 😅 It just took such a long time to get the PSG and the watches connected to me and also the other participants (we started at 9pm)...
Wow great stuff, thanks for all the effort! Would be interesting how this compares to whoop 4.0 as well as the Apple Watch.. any clues or opinion you have? I have a series 5 Apple Watch but thinking about buying either the Oura Ring or the whoop 4.0. or should I buy a new Apple Watch??? I am interested mainly in sleep tracking but also other overall health indications. Any recommendations or opinions you might want to share? Thanks!
Hello dear! 2 years ago I bought Inspire2 thanks to your reviews. QUESTION : what's the difference of this video with the other one of 3 months ago (about this ring)? I guess it's the professional instrumentation you've used. So this one is much better than that other "helmet" you used in the previous video? Thanks!
I am not excited about Ultrahuman ring or Circular ring which are both available at the moment. I am excited about the Kickstarter project, Iris ring. With a smaller form factor and much more health metrics including blood pressure. The campaign is succesful and I hope it realizes.
@@QueenPcontrolstheuniverse Apple Watch SE2 is a nice watch. Continuous blood glucose monitoring along with the blood pressure measurement will be the next trend in wearable devices. Clinical trials are going on. By 2024 or 2025 at most, it will be widespread technology. Apple might not be the first company to make use of it but they are working on it as well.
what's up dude, love your videos and analysis. you're the only person I trust to review these trackers properly. do you know when you'll be able to get your hands on one of the new Huawei Band 8's? I heard they upgraded its heartbeat sensor to the same "Truseen 5.0" tech that's in the GT3 and Fit 2.
Nice video, I enjoy watching you, you relay give the real stats and do the real tests.I want to ask if you plan on doing a video about the new Garmin Instinct 2x?
Fantastic analyses. Really appreciate that last comparison chart! But unless I just need more coffee, isn’t the Apple watch 8 shown in 2 places? Does that merely reflect software upgrade?
Shouldn't both columns and rows add to 100%? Columns are ok, but when you see, for example, the second row, when Aura Ring detects light sleep, 15% of the time the PSG detects deep sleep, 75,9% it detects light sleep, 41% REM sleep and 18,3% awake state. It's like there is some overlap, but only when you take the ring as a reference. Why is that?
How do you get so low resting heart rates? Do you do a lot of sports? I'm battling sleep problems and Oura has been very valuable tool for me in understanding myself.
Have you ever tested a Suunto device? Would be interesting to know how they stack up to the competition (not so much sleep tracking, but heartrate monitoring).
I'm not sure I have any groundbreaking comments here, but I looked at the prices of all these devices, and I don't feel you're recommending the Watch SE enough :) I'd rather see another device top the charts, but at perhaps 200 dollars for the SE I can't see how the others can compete. There are caveats to Apple's supremacy of course, but hard to believe viewers of this channel especially would pay 300 dollars for another device that also loses them another 10% or 20% in accuracy.
Could you consider doing a review comparing some of the newer tracking rings for sleep accuracy, such as Ultrahuman, Circular, Ring Movano Evie, and Ringconn? Thanks
Have you seen the soon to be released Muse Ring One? I would love to see you do a test of how accurate it is. I've been researching fitness/sleep trackers and I think I'd prefer to have a ring over a watch as I haven't worn a watch since I started carrying a cell phone in the late '90s.
Ich benutze meine Apple Watch 6 fürs schlafen bin an sich zufrieden aber kriege an sich kaum Informationen oder Tipps über meinen Schlaf kann nur draufschauen mehr auch nicht. Zudem bezweifle ich das die Watch die Wachphasen richtig einordnet da ich oft wach werde. Der Ring ist schon cool und hat ne lange Akkulaufzeit und ist praktisch
What makes Apple watches so much better for sleep tracking and also sport tracking? Does the Apple watch have better quality sensor on it or better software to interpret that raw data?
almost certainly better software. Companies like garmin have arguably better hardware sensor packages, but are far worse at tracking things like sleep (at least on my particular watch)
I've been wearing both the Dreem 2 and Muse S headbands for about three months now and the somnographs are almost identical. Is this because they both use the same core detetction components?
Hello, what is the device that you recommend to control apnea? I need a continuous control of the oxygen saturation throughout the night and to provide me with all the data in the morning with the desaturation percentages of each episode. Thank you very much from Spain
@@TheQuantifiedScientist Hi Rob, I appreciate your answer. Do you share somewhere more details regarding your analysis? Let's say I would like to replicate your test. I have oura and dreem as well. How many nights are involved for example etc.? You are the man. Thanks for your effort 👍
I have a doubt. What is the source of your income for making these videos? The tests that you do are costly and time consuming. Sometimes you go to 3rd party labs and also involve more people. You rarely do upfront sponsorship. Is there any behind the scene sponsorship?
You must be new(and didn't pay attention when he explained it in the video). Rob is a scientist and because of this, he has access to people working with professional lab equipment. As for this particular video, he explained he got free acces to using the PSG device. In exchange for promising to make another video, where he review the lab's new sleep app software(or something along those lines).
@@danieljrgensen133 I have been watching his videos for quite some time now. I really appreciate the effort he puts in. But somewhere in my mind I have a doubt that how does he makes money.
@@RohitSurw He gets money from youtube when people, like yourself, watches his videos and gives them a like and subscribe to his channel. Another thing, and this may come as a surprise to you, not all people on youtube are mostly motivated by making money....some genuinely have a interest in the subject(s) they cover on youtube and don't mind dedicating some of their free time working on this! 😉

Wow i just found UA-cam channel and this is an insane amount of work. Thank you !!
Thanks, great review!

Super underrated channel!
Great job and such an informative review, having factual data for a review is almost unheard of now.
It's awesome the Oura ring is getting more accurate.
I like that chart showing all the trackers.
Mostly i just want a dreem 2 though now lol
I agree. That chart was what convinced me to subscribe. :)

Hi, can you please do an HR test with the new Garmin Fenix 7 pro. They have a new Sensor.
Hi, any plans to do Circular Ring or RingConn review? They don't have subscription models so that's a huge benefit.
This is the most useful UA-cam about wearables, second to none really!
Please do a review once the Huawei Watch 4 Pro is out. Looking forward for the review. Thanks much.

Seconded! I would love to see a review of the Ultrahuman. A quick comparison of the Ultrahuman's iOS and Android apps would also be nice.
never heard of this ring before but thanks to your comment I'm now researching it and it looks like a good alternative to the oura ring!
I am not excited about Ultrahuman ring or Circular ring which are both available at the moment. I am excited about the Kickstarter project, Iris ring. With a smaller form factor and much more health metrics including blood pressure. The campaign is succesful and I hope it realizes.
