Get 10% off with my link. The Oura Ring 4 looks like a great update, including a redesign of the Oura app. Particularly, the new uniform design seems to improve both the data is collects and the effectiveness of the software in how it collects it: At a glance, the Oura Ring 4 doesn’t look too different from the Gen 3. However, the new ring will be fully made from titanium. (The previous ring had an epoxy interior.) All the rings will also be completely round, like the current Horizon models, with no flat edge. Perhaps most notably, the sensors no longer have protruding dome-shaped covers. Instead, they’re recessed for a flatter, more comfortable profile. The bigger update, however, comes from software. Oura says its new algorithm helps solve a major problem with smart rings — the fact that everyone’s fingers are different and smart rings can move out of alignment during the day. That can mean sensors aren’t pulling data from the optimal place, which leads to gaps in data. To solve that, the new algorithm increases the number of signal pathways from eight to 18. Supposedly, that allows it to pick which signal is best at a given time. Not sure I'm going to upgrade my Gen 3 just yet, but improved data collection is a compelling value prop for me.

Impressive how much technology can be fit into such a small device. Not a fan of rings unfortunately, so it's still a no for me, no matter how small it gets.

I lost my Oura Ring hiking a while ago. V seriously considering getting this new one, although is it that much of a step up from the previous models?

The Oura Ring 4 definitely sounds like a solid upgrade, especially with the improvements in design and data accuracy. The move to titanium and the fully rounded design seem to enhance both comfort and durability, and I love that they’ve eliminated the sensor protrusions for a smoother fit. The real game-changer here, though, is the software update. Increasing the number of signal pathways to 18 is a smart way to tackle the issue of alignment and data gaps—it’s great to see them addressing the variability in how people wear the ring. For those who prioritize accurate health tracking, this new algorithm could be a big draw. I’m with you, though—it might not be worth upgrading just yet if you’re happy with the Gen 3, but the enhanced data collection is definitely tempting!
