The navy is currently using that to track personnel’s sleep schedules to assist with balancing work load and work schedules
Cool
Wow that is very cool. Make sure nobody is overworking themselves will both improve efficiency and morale
Kinda creepy for the government to do that
Can any man propose to marry a beautiful girl with this ring?
🤡
This is a luxury product. The subscription killed it at the door .
Yeah if it was just the ring I would have been on board
Me when I saw the ring: yeah I’m definitely going to be wearing that 24/7
Me when I saw the subscription: imma head out
They’ve implement a business model which fosters economic stability over the long term. In absence of a small nominal subscription they’d not be able to deliver algorithm improvements, a suitable mobile app, or the type of service customers have come to expect. This is a bad take.
@@TheElectronCloud its expensive period, no Bad take here. Like if your so lucky and wealthy, then buy it yourself
@@TheElectronCloud I don't pay for Garmin connect apps. I buy the watch/device and that's all. Why can other companies do it? Garmin even gives me the same sleep stats as this brand...
I wouldn't be able to sleep knowing I paid over $500CDN for a sleep tracker.
And a monthly fee lmao
Based
Lmao, not when you're a millionaire.
Can’t agree more. 200$ would be still too much
Loooool
I'm using the ring and used to use the gen 2 ring too. But I want to say one thing for potential new owners, especially Android users. This company always gives their iOS app a priority. A feature that automatically detects and record activities has been in their iOS app since this February but this hasn't been implemented in the Android app yet for 10 months
7/20/22, Update: Oura has treated iOS and Android users a little bit more equally, the feature that I wrote originally is already available for Android users and they recently added a new feature and that got available for Android within 2 or 3 weeks after iOS.

I love you for this cause I have Android and detect sleep is the one reason I want one because most don't detect when your sleep
damn, appreciate this comment.
I was planning to buy it but just for this reason i wouldnt support this brand.
Me as an Android user: Once again... 😮💨
Anyway, with a comfortable strap and the Sleep as Android app my Watch Active 2 can do all of that... Without costing over 300€ and without a 5.99€ subscription service.
Even if this thing were to work perfectly, that last part is an absolute dealbreaker for me. Having to pay for a subscription service *ontop* of the high price for the device *just* to use its basic features is an absolute no-go for me.
How much the watch cost
@@harmonjp2714 You can get the GPS version of the Galaxy Watch Active 2 for under 200 bucks. Way below that during sales. And the sleep tracking app, Sleep as Android, costs 9.99. I got it for 5 bucks during a sale.
I see what you're saying with the subscription thing, I kind of agree, but it is a watch compared to a ring. This video actually came at an opportune time bc I've been getting more into health tracking, but I don't want the distractions that would inevitably come with having a screen on my wrist. So to say, if I'm going to be spending $300+ anyway, why not be part of the cutting edge?
@@158276pupers There is nothing stopping you from getting one.
And if the ring works perfectly it's pretty awesome.
I just hate the idea of buying an expensive piece of tech and then paying a monthly fee on top of that just to use it. That makes no sense.
And what happens when the company goes under or stops supporting older products? Then your $300 "cutting edge" ring becomes a terrible paperweight.
Same here...the $6 a month fee to access the full app is a money grabbing joke and COMPLETELY ruins this product.
I have Gen 2 Oura and love this thing! It's very accurate!
cool idea, one ring to rule them all!
“So precious”
Yeah , one of the hidden bonus features.
🤔😖
I have had Gen 2 for a year and just got the Gen 3. Overall it works great. Seems like there is some issues when updates or new products come out though but it typically gets fixed within the week. Battery life is good. I wear it in place of a wedding ring. Best feature is the heart rate monitor and body temperature tracking. When either seem to be on the rise u can immediately change diet, workout habits, and sleep schedule to prevent any minor illnesses from taking hold. I have not had a cold or flu since buying this.

Love this video and the idea of wearing a ring instead of a watch is great. I'm no expert to smart rings, but when i went to check the page i expected max 200€ but it is 320€... Too pricey for me unfortunately and you also have to buy a membership? wow.
Yeah the membership part made me go from interested to uninterested so quickly. Why the f should I pay a monthly membership to use an app for a product that I bought for basically $300...
Smart rings is something that the industry has wanted to develop for nearly a decade if not more. The issue is that rings come in way too many sizes - there is no one size fits most. If you try to limit it to a select few sizes then you alienate too many people; too many sizes and the production costs are so expensive that you have no choice but to a) pass it on to the customer or b) figure out some way to make the product a Loss Leader which would almost certainly never work.
Bottom line, getting smart rings right is too cost-prohibitive.
@@aye3678 because otherwise the product can't exist
@@chrisjfox8715 yeah you're right. I didn't say it's a bad product or whatever, just that it's more of a luxury product as of now and that a "normal" consumer probably won't buy this ring, because of the price.
@@chrisjfox8715 That doesn't make sense...the product CAN exist without you having to pay some bogus "membership" fee. They make a product, they sell it for a fair price, and that's it. They don't need to KEEP charging you. I have a smart watch - which will also track my sleep - that I don't pay a "membership" fee for.
As a sleep researcher, 1: this product is really good for a whole lot of things, but 2: it can't really tell sleep stages apart so well (it guesses more than anything) and 3: the algorithms overestimate sleep (if you watch a movie it might think you entered sleep)
Don't get me wrong, it is a great tool, it gives people a focus on sleep and people REALLY don't put enough focus on sleep! And, it really can give you a great idea of your sleep onset latency, sleep quality, wake after sleep onset, etc. But just like fitbits, apple watches, etc, it can't really tell sleep stages apart (unless it is around your head like an EEG or a polysomnograph, you can't really know the stage of a person with great accuracy). But then again, how important is it really for regular people to know exactly how much time they spent in REM, N2, N3, etc?
> people REALLY don't put enough focus on sleep
no shit its because they are asleep 😂
Very important for those with Narcolepsy like me.
based on obvious sleep stage BS, now I'm wondering how much of the other fluffy features are also just total BS.
@@legitm0nkey during the day...... People don't know their circadian rhythm, stay awake to study, watch their phones in bed, etc etc etc
@@kingzach74 it's a good idea if you don't like wearing a smart watch or an actigraph, but it's no better than a good actigraph...
I’ve worn the Gen 2 Oura for close to two years. Waiting for my Gen 3 to be delivered. Sleep is a part of what it gives you, also calories burned, exercise tracking, heart rate variability, temperature and more. Excellent little tech, highly recommended
I’ve had the Gen 2 of this ring for a couple of years. Now wearing the Gen 3, just got it a few weeks ago. Very good 👍👍
I’ve worn the Oura ring for two years now and I love it. It’s the first thing I check every morning. Highly recommended.
I just received my upgraded Gen 3 ring. I've been using the Gen 2 since December 2018 and I love it. It's so comfortable that I wear it all day and night and only give it a charge when I'm at the sink in the morning shaving, etc. The best point is that based on the data, I've changed my eating time and bed time which has optimized my sleep quality. Craziest of all is that it only weighs about 3.3 grams.
How about its strength ? I work in construction and I would bet my last penny it'll snap the second i step foot onsite
Smells like a shill
Love this detailed data and idea of a ring as opposed to wrist devices.
These videos is the thing we need
I would love to have an integrated NFC chip in this ring... that would be the ultimate daily accessory!

Lew makes even the drop and ketch look so smooth 😎
Black looks amazing
Really cool ring! Love all this new tech coming out, we need more competing companies to drive the prices down a bit though.
As well as a sleep tracker the fitness tracking side interested me. However it wouldn’t work for boxing unfortunately. With the Whoop you can wear the device on the arm or wrist making it more versatile.
I wish we were best friends bro. Absolutely love what you do in the space.
That blue lighting in the back is 🔥
You can see if you have slept well if feeling well. I used to use trackers earlier but they are not going to change my lifestyle I have to. Its just shows you some data that I think many people might know already not very specifically but you can feel it.
I would buy this so fast if it had some type of notification settings as well. Maybe just vibrate once for a text message. Or vibrate for a set alarm. That is one thing that I've gotten spoiled with, with my smartwatch.
It will take to much energy. It will go from 7 day to 2 so !!!
Figure out how to fit vibration motor in such a small space. It’s a waste of time and effort. Best I could think of is an LED flash
Just Look for Circular Ring, they have this feature.
I bought an oura ring and it's one of my best investments

Nice little tech, you got there Buddy !! 🥰🥰
I like the idea but if I'm not mistaking you have to pay to get all of the features monthly after you buy the ring (correct me if I'm wrong) and I'm not down for that
Correct. I got the offer for lifetime membership because I am owner a oura 2 ring.
I hate all these subscriptions.
Yeah, the subscription part is what killed this for me. Imagine paying $300 for a product, only then you have to pay monthly to use the app, which without the app, I am sure this device is useless..
Correct, it's not for cheapskates.
But it is built for the sucker
One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
Literally
@@MrDeskart
Wanting to get one for Christmasi have heard really great things about oura.
Lewis you are the best
I wear a gen 2 as a wedding band and i love it, had one die on me but Oura sent me a new one no questions asked. Great little device just be weary of the black coating scratching off over time, mine looks a little worse for wear now.
how did u contact them?
@@htelzer123 through the help contact us part of the app
Was tempted until I saw there is a subscription to make it work after handling over $300-$400 to purchase it.
Same, I was set to buy it then I read you have to fork over more money just to get all the functions. If they can do it without a monthly subscription I'll buy one.
It's worth it.
This is so cool love this ❤
Video camera quality is really amazing
Definitely a luxury item. But I feel so goofy wearing a Fitbit with a suit and I feel like a Spy Kid wearing a suit with an Apple Watch. I love the design and the discretion of this ring. I also love wearing rings so this might be a cop for me.
Quite cool to see that a ring now can measure the psychological signals of your body and gives you accurate data on how you've slept the previous night.
that ring catch made me like the video right away
can't wait to see one with a screen
Looking forward to picking one of these up and giving it a try. 🔥💪
I had the old version and upgraded, brilliant device.tried so many bands and watches and this just nails it. My wife has my old ring now. Would ot be without it. Spotted my covid 2 days before the test with elevated temp and breathing rate. Tried Galaxy watch 4 , fitbit and others. The galaxy watch was decent the battery life just was not acceptable to me.
That’s so cool! I never wear my Apple Watch or any other watches when I sleep ..I don’t even put my iPhone near me so this ring would be awesome .hopefully it will sync with any smartphones or iPhone
new one, thats nice!
Good thing about a ring tracker is that I can finally wear my watches/time pieces while keeping my tracking data

a ring sleep tracker is great. my GF hates when i sleep with my S4 watch. so swapping that into a ring would be worth it. i would 100% take this over a clock.
but subscriptions is bad way to go foward for this product.
I think subscription is the only way forward for this product. They need more money to keep the tech train moving, with new updates and security.
I was thinking of getting one of these rings for myself. Now I think more seriously. Thanks dude

OURA RING IS LIFE
thanks for the video
I’m curious about the durability of the ring when used working out. I lift weights and this seems bulky to have on my hand.
👆👆Thanks for watching

It’s not recommended to lift weights with the ring
I have the gen 2 and I use it while working out. If you don’t care about scratching it then it’s no problem
Yeah, this is the only downside. Have to take the ring off for every workout. As for data i'ts not a problem since I have my Galaxy watch 4 to do that and I can sync it to google fit that brings it to Oura. Oura(gen2) has also been the most accurate of all the last gen fitbits and even wins watch 4 on sleep accuracy. However when my earlier watch died I tried using oura and it took some heavy hits from the metal bars. Big scratches, lost "paint" and overall really worn out. Contacted Oura support and they pretty much said that they don't recommend using the ring on the gym and the finish couldn't be fixed because it probably would break the sensors.
just throw a little piece of electrical tape over it for your workout to protect it
really nice piece of tech, hope it has water resistance
it has, you can dive with it.
Ohh my precious..
Thanks for the video 🐱🐱
Can I afford it? Lol absolutely not. But to know something like this exists is brilliant. This also is an excellent companion for those who prefer analogue/mechanical watches over smart watches but want the fitness/sleep tracking. Maybe I could afford this one day and I would absolutely pick this over any smart watches despite it having subscription service which I know sucks but if I could buy this, I might as well be able to afford the subscription too.

I got one of these from the Air Force. It seems great in theory but actually sucks. It’s impossible to workout (gets in the way of gripping barbells and weights properly) with on making one of the biggest reasons for getting it pointless. The fit of the ring is also extremely bad And would fall off while working or while sleeping. Everyone that got one ended up returning them because it’s just impractical in reality.
You probably didn't get the right size. Some people need half sizes like me. My ring finger is an 8.5 US size and most rings don't fit me all that well. 8 is too small and constricting and 9 is too big and if I'm not careful will fall off.
Unfortunately unless a jeweler has the ability to modify one of these(given all the electronics probably not)there probably isn't a way to adjust them for everyone.
Only thing is if the company makes half sizes.
@@kingzach74 doesn’t fix the issue of not being able to grip barbells and dumbbells properly, this is only good if you do cardio only
@@Gerrylaneballs The company on their homepage doesn’t recommend wearing this ring while lifting weights. It’s better for some to stick with a smartwatch for fitness and sleep tracking.
Ive seen ben greenfield lift weights do pull ups etc all while wearing the ring. And he’s a fitness dude thats done a lot of different workouts.
@@felixg.7752 good for him. But this is a comment and feeling most people I worked with had about the ring.
This video has some deep meaning that his common audience cannot understand yet 😘🔥 nice video
I want one!
I was interested until I read that they have a monthly subscription plan to use it.
I’m sure you can save $6 monthly. That’s $1,5 weekly.
Problem with a ring is if wearing it whilst doing weights, there is a good chance it will get damaged

It looks impressive!!
Imagine using this ring as a marriage ring
can you really tell if someone is in REM sleep without an eeg? my understanding is that you need to monitor the brain waves to figure something like that out
Good question…I’m thinking your right
The Oura ring is the most accurate of the non-eeg devices out there, but it's still just guessing based on movement and other bio data. They claim 80% match of their sleep stage data to eeg-based sleep stage data when tested.
@@RussianShadowDragon translation, they guess
I'm honestly puzzled by this whole "sleep tracking" thing. Don't people KNOW if they've slept enough? I know I do...and I know if I slept well, or if I need more sleep...why would you need a $300 gadget to tell you what you likely already know as soon as you wake up? Not bashing the product, just genuinely confused as to what need this fulfills.
It’s a gitchy gadget that gear heads want to own, that’s about it.
@@alphagt62 Sounds about right. 👍
If you have no issue with your sleep, you don't need it. I have insomnia and need to track my Deep & REM sleep, if I'm moving during the night, my daily cardio, etc. Enough activity during the day, Weekly trends on all metrics, etc. Worth every penny for me.
@@MarryChicone I'm curious now...and NOT trying to argue or anything...but HOW does this device help with insomnia? What I mean is, don't you know if you slept well? If you tossed and turned, woke up several times...don't you already know that? I'm being serious, not sarcastic or negative, I genuinely want to know, because my wife does suffer a bit from insomnia, and so...I'm curious.
So...what does this ring - or any similar device - tell you, that you didn't know yourself? HOW does it help, exactly?
This device's implementation of body tracking under cuts the underlying data's value.
This type of data can very easily tell you about onsets of illness, sickness, and health problems. With a bit of work on the wearers part, tagging events and situations, kind of like a live journal, can take it a step further. Whether the data is annotated after the fact in charts or in real-time on a watch or something, tagging events allows you to identify patterns in your behaviour that result in health and sleep problems.
I was able to identify the exact cut off time for caffeine to not impact my sleep, thus leading to less caffeine use, and I could see that in a chart to see exactly how. I could see its impact on my resting heart rate. With other gadgets, I could tell its impact on my O2 levels, and with more diligent note taking, what food impacts my health.
Best of all, I don' t need a doctor to tell me how to read a chart. With a bit of careful consideration and mindful eating, drinking, exercise, I know exactly how to stay healthy longer without having to go to the doctor. In Canada, this isn't as big an impact, apart from having control over my own health. In other parts of the world, doctors are costly, and having a tool to avoid visiting them, is a god send.
UNFORTUNETLY, despite the claims of this ring, many of these benefits are either impossible with just this ring alone, or aren't accessible or easily understood. The worst issue is the added effort on the person to actually journal what they are doing and track their food. Something I assume, if they had the want or desire to, would be doing anyways.
However, for people like me, those who want more control over their own body, this kind of data is really helpful and I am looking forward to seeing where this industry goes. I look forward to the day I can use smart glasses to automatically tag what I eat. I look forward to personalized health care, automated healthcare, and democratized health care.
Ordered the Matte Black. Merry Christmas to me
I noticed the ring on u two days ago and was gonna ask where u got it. It just caught my eye, I didn’t think about it being tech at all
This may sound crazy but hear me out: Oura should provide the option of wearing more than one ring to a subset of users. This will help them incorporate multi-lead ECG at a minimum. Maybe a few other sensors that may not fit on one.

That feature is planned to release in 2022
It has a sensor for blood oxygen saturation, but it won’t be supported by the software until 2022. They’re working on their algorithms to make it accurate.
My wife can never say why I'm not wearing my ring .... I forgot it on the charger .... I'm sold
Lovely ring💍💍
The real question is. About about the gym rats. My hands are so rough and the part that the ring fits on my ring finger is thick... will it even work on me?
It's actually best if it's a snug fit. People with large knuckles in relation to the rest of their finger may have issues with accuracy.
That said, beware that lifting weights with the ring on will probably scratch it up. I'm ok with a scratched up ring, but know that that will probably happen.
Also workout HR data is scheduled to release in 2022, not yet available.
Also note that it is a subscription business model.
As an engineer : Dayum!
As a consumer: its too steep for me. I was expecting to be 200-250$, but its 300+ euro. Its probably worth the money for someone that needs all of that info and can use it.
My Smartwatch was about as expensive as this ring and has about the same features and battery life. But at least I don't have a subscription fee on top of that

46 BPS isn’t that insanely low?
46 BPS is insanely high, think you meant to say BPM in which case, no, during sleep it's not.
It's not really. It varies from one person to another, but in general, the more active the person is, the lower their BPM is. for example, Professional Athletes can have a resting BPM of < 40
