ŌURA reviews and discussion

I didn't really understand why somedays I wake up feeling like I never slept but this has helped with so much insight into my sleep patterns. The days when I don't feel my best, it's very informative to go back and look at the data so I can make adjustments accordingly . I love that it's helping keep track of and in tune with my health but hate that it drains my phone battery so much.

what an amazing brand!!! i wear my third generation ring everyday and it gives me the perfect insight on my sleep. i love how kind the customer support staff was and how worth it the product feels. and my ring goes perfect with every outfit!!

I think the Oura ring is a really cool idea and is very helpful to track sleep, but most of the other features can be tracked just as well with a smart watch. I hope in the future they add features that help guide you to improve your scores and health, such as how to improve your HRV and other data points the ring suggests are mediocre or below average.

I love my OURA ring. I rely on it everyday to show me my sleep quality and activity scores. It is so nice to see my health journey manifest in a visible, measurable format. Also, everyone compliments me on the look of the ring without knowing everything that it can do.

worth the money, great product

Innovative

It's really nice and does what it says to do, but may not be worth it if you're not massively into tracking your fitness

Love my Oura ring. However I bought pre-subscription and don't think I would pay it since the ring alone is pricey. If you have the money I would defo recommend.

I've been using the oura ring for about two months now and like many of its features. It tracks sleep and activity as well as period (based on time and temperature). I find the most useful stats to be those built over weeks rather than daily where you can notice sleep and activity patterns and their interaction. With that said, for how expensive it is I wish there was more data tracked as its similar to a fitbit or apple watch. I also wish that the more complex data could be viewed on the phone instead of on the computer.

I have been wearing my Oura ring for the last 4 months and I can't imagine living with out it ever again.

Pretty cool and sleek

I love my Oura ring. I love the personalized health info that I receive daily. I love the look of the ring and receive many compliments on it. My sleep has improved since using the ring. Makes me more mindful of the hours of sleep I get each night. I highly recommend the Oura Ring!

I was dubious at first to sleep with this kind of technology but I used it to learn about what helped me sleep and what hindered my sleep. I was stoked with the data and often surprised by it. I loved that i could wake up having had a bad night of sleep then make up for it by going back to sleep!

As someone who suffers from insomnia, I was looking to get some details on exactly why...and well Oura did the trick. Granular detail on the type of sleep you have throughout the night (e.g. % of REM, deep and light sleep) and also tracks movement. It's a comfortable ring that you can wear at night without noticing.

There is absolutely no human beings available for customer service. The chatbot is automated. There is absolutely no phone support—at all. Email is their only form of customer service number. What kind of company can sell on, average, $400 rings and $6 monthly subscriptions but can’t pay employees to answer phones? I wish I never ordered this thing.

Oura is a great alternative to smart watches since it looks nice and can fit with any style. The tracking is great and super helpful for sleep. I have always felt aligned with the scores I get and I like the additional info that gets unlocked. My main issue with this is the cost for value of the product. The rings are super expensive and then you still have to pay a monthly fee for your own data. Plus, I like to wear mine when I work out and there are signs of wear on the ring after less than a year

I purchased my ring a few months ago and have really enjoyed the experience so far. The interface is great and I find the sleep tracking incredibly helpful. As someone who occasionally does shift work, it’s interesting to see how it affects both my sleep and my readiness for the day. I wish the activity tracking was easier to use, but it doesn’t take away from the experience. Definitely a great tool to have in my health “toolkit.”

I am very disappointed in my oura ring 3. It does not allow you to track oxygen levels thru the the night. All it will do is tell you the average oxygen level for the night which is basically worthless for me. Additionally there are so many gaps in the pulse rate graph that it is also basically worthless for me. Additionally there appears to be no support phone or email to contact about issues. I want my money back!!!!

Had my Oura ring now for 18 months. Feb of 2024 it started to act weird, showing that I walked 6.8 miles when in fact it was about 2 miles. Then it kept showing that my steps per day were higher than actual as compared to a treadmill or Google watch. I called the company, they have you reset the ring and then literally put on the charger and slam it down on a solid surface!! REALLY?? So I did all that they recommended and still nothing. They finally said they would send this issue up to the next level so they could give me a solution....THATS BEEN 4 MONTHS NOW!! I email every month and get the same canned response...sorry for your issue we are working on a solution. I asked for a replacement and they said the ring can be fixed so they won't replace?? BUT they still have not come up with a solution... In the meantime I am walking 15000 steps which really is about 9000.... Ring sounded like a great monitor BUT this ring is not worth a penny if it can't do what is advertised!

Lemon Oura Ring: Cautionary Tale & Buyer Beware My experience with the Oura Ring has been marred by a series of issues that have left me thoroughly dissatisfied. Two weeks after my initial purchase, I encountered problems with the battery life, which was consistently lasting only 30-36 hours despite the advertised claim of 7 days. Concerned about the discrepancy, I promptly requested a replacement. To my dismay, I was told that the battery was functioning within acceptable parameters and that the variation in battery life depended on individual usage patterns and the selected modes. It's worth noting that I was only using the ring for sleep tracking at that time. In every correspondence, I explicitly noted my request for a replacement. Despite this early red flag, I continued to face persistent challenges with battery life and then my saga with the Oura Ring took a turn for the worse. In July 2023, my ring began randomly failing to track my sleep. This prompted a series of interactions with customer support that only added to my mounting frustration. In September 2023, I was finally informed that the sleep tracking issue was a "known issue" and that the company was actively working on a resolution. However, it wasn't until January 4, 2024, that I received an email claiming the problem had been resolved and instructing me to update my ring. Unfortunately, the latest update proved ineffective, and the situation escalated. Customer support guided me through a series of steps, including taking screenshots, in an attempt to troubleshoot. Regrettably, these efforts rendered my ring completely non-functional, and the ring now refuses to connect to the Oura app. Astoundingly, despite the ongoing and unresolved issues, the company maintained that my Oura Ring was now out of warranty. Today their proposed solution remained a meager $75 off a new purchase, a response that does little to address the persistent problems and the impact on my overall experience. They refuse to acknowledge that the problem starting in July has not been resolved, and that I requested a replacement every step of the way. This extended ordeal with the Oura Ring has left me not only with a malfunctioning device but also with a sense of disappointment in the company's ability to deliver reliable products and satisfactory customer support. Potential customers should approach the Oura Ring with caution, considering alternative options with a more proven track record and responsive support. A strong buyer beware is warranted. If you do decide to purchase the Oura Ring, and encounter issues early on, it's imperative to insist on a replacement. My experience revealed that the company may run you in circles, offering resistance and delaying tactics until the warranty period expires. It's essential to advocate for your rights as a consumer and seek a resolution promptly to avoid prolonged frustrations and potential lapses in warranty coverage.
