The Oura ring is a great fitness tracker for minimalists. It picks up on your sleep, HRV, skin temperature and more while you sleep, and its app tells you how recovered and ready you are each day. Today, the gen 3 ring is still on sale, with all styles $50 to $100 under their regular list price.
A few sizes and styles were briefly on even better sales for Cyber Monday; I saw prices as low as $221 for a silver Heritage in size 10, for example. Today, those surprise low prices are gone, but there's still a significant sale going. The lowest prices are on the black and silver rings: they normally cost $299 but are now $249. The best deals are on the gold and rose gold rings: they normally cost $449 but are now $349. That leaves the "stealth" (matte black) and brushed titanium finishes, which are in between—$279, down from $349.
To understand what you’re getting, I’ll break down Oura’s product offerings:
The gen 3 ring, released in 2021, comes in a Horizon style (smooth) and a Heritage style (with a flat area on top of the ring). It’s available in whole sizes 6 to 13.
The gen 4 ring, released in 2024, comes in one shape, a smooth one. It’s available in more sizes: whole sizes 4 to 15.
The newer ring’s inner surface doesn’t have the sensor bumps that the gen 3 has, and the company says its sensors are slightly more accurate. But to be honest, both rings have similar functionality. As a gen 3 owner myself, I have zero jealousy of people who own a gen 4.
Here’s what I’m seeing in the Horizon style on Amazon:
Silver: $249 (normally $299)
Black: $249 (normally $299)
Brushed titanium: $279 (normally $349)
Gold: $349 (normally $449), except that there is one size 8 in stock for $331.75. Congrats to whoever snaps that one up.
Rose gold: $349 (normally $449)
Stealth (matte black): $279 (normally $349)
And in Heritage with the flat top:
Silver: $249 (normally $299)
Black: $249 (normally $299)
Brushed titanium: not in stock
Gold: $349 (normally $449)
Rose gold: not in stock
Stealth (matte black): $279 (normally $349)
These prices are all subject to change, of course, and some styles aren’t available in all sizes. These are the older models, after all, and Oura seems eager to clear out old stock. The gen 4 Oura ring is not on sale right now (and wasn’t for Black Friday, either). It runs $50 more than the regular price of the gen 3 rings for each color, so $349 for black and silver, $499 for gold and rose gold, and so on.
By the way, if you want something to track your workouts and not just your sleep, Oura may not be the ring for you. You probably want either a Garmin or a Whoop band to give you the best sleep data and track your workouts; I recently refereed a showdown between the Oura ring and the Whoop band. The Whoop band won, partly on activity tracking and partly on price. (Oura and Whoop both have subscription fees; check that link for a breakdown of the numbers.) And if I’m starting to convince you, I’ll add that Whoop is also running a Cyber Monday deal.
All that said, the Oura ring is an excellent sleep tracker to pair with a fitness watch, or to keep tabs on your health without worrying about activity tracking at all. If the $5.99/month subscription fee doesn’t bother you, go ahead and grab the ring.
