  1. The new Oura 5 Ring is so light and unobtrusive you forget you’re wearing it: Here are 5 more positive things about this handsome smart ring

    As someone who doesn’t wear a watch, nor jewellery too often, I’m so glad I’ve been introduced to the Oura Ring 5. The new model ring is not only smaller, but boasts some bonus functions and extra specs that were missing in the Oura 4.

    For anyone not familiar with this stat-reading product, the Oura can best be described as an attractive, traditional-looking ring that tracks the user’s sleep, activity, stress levels, temperature, and general health monitoring.

    The new petite size of the Oura Ring 5 is probably it’s greatest selling point, and here at Cream, we believe the best technology is increasingly that which we forget we’re wearing. Even in an accessory sense, you don’t want to be too conscious of the jewellery you’re wearing. That way, when someone comments on a piece (and I’ve received plenty of comments and compliments on the Oura) your response is more one of casual surprise as opposed to eye-rolling expectation. So, yes, size matters when it comes to an Oura ring, and in our view, the smaller and lighter the ring, the better.

    Here are five more great things about the new Oura Ring 5.

     

    01. It’s not only smaller but much more comfortable

    This is probably the most immediately obvious upgrade. Oura reports that the Ring 5 has 40% less volume than the Ring 4, measuring 6.09mm wide and 2.28mm thick versus 7.9mm and about 2.88mm. The redesigned, flatter sensor arrangement also makes the inside feel less intrusive. Basically, it feels less like wearing a piece of technology and more like wearing an actual ring.

     

    02. The sensors are smarter, improving accuracy
    This is the big one, technically. Oura has redesigned the optical sensing system, with shorter light paths, more efficient LEDs and improved sensor positioning. There’s better accuracy in
    overnight heart rate variability, by 12%, and closer to 20% improvement in accuracy of heart rate during activities such as walking, running and cycling, compared with the Oura 4.

     

    03. Battery life is longer

    Your Oura ring comes with a small but speedy battery charger, and most users find a full charge to last about a full week.

    Energy gets a good bump up in the Oura Ring 5. In fact, one full charge sees the ring reading your stats for a solid week, sometimes even up to 9 days depending on your levels of activity and its analysing of these, whereas I found the Ring 4 often only lasted for a week. We realise that longer batter life is not surprising in progressing models of technology, but with a wearable bit of smart tech like this – whose whole purpose is continuous monitoring, particularly overnight – that extra day or two can make all the difference. You spend less time thinking about charging it and more time actually wearing it. That said, it charges fairly quickly.

     

    04. It’s lighter and less visually ‘techy’

    The combination of the slimmer profile, lower weight and redesigned sensors makes Ring 5 considerably more discreet. And of course it’s available in several finishes, including a new Deep Rose. Oura has really pushed the jewellery rather than gadget aesthetic this time. The lightness of the ring means it is unobtrusive, hence you’re much more likely to leave it on 24/7 and that of course means better data.

     

    05. The health insights are becoming more proactive


    This is slightly different from the hardware improvements. Ring 5 launches alongside newer software experiences including ‘Health Radar’
    , which is designed to flag potential changes in areas such as cardiovascular and respiratory health. There are also new health-oriented insights – mostly to assist users taking diabetic/weight loss medications such as Ozempic or Wegovy – and some new AI-enabled medical guidance. For those who have invested in an Oura Ring 4, don’t panic as Oura says many of these new software experiences are also coming to Gen 3 and the Ring 4, so everybody’s happy.

     

    So, with its better sensing, smaller design and more comfortable fit, plus a better battery life, this ring is definitely having more outings alongside the Cartier. Now, I know I did say I don’t wear jewellery often but I’m getting used to both rings being worn now.
