What owners single out
Buyers' weakest aspect—design & comfort—directly echoes video reviewers' concerns about the ring's chunky, uncomfortable form factor.
In their words
“Okay, let me start by saying I was very skeptical of the bad reviews I have seen about the Oura Ring 4. We all tend to focus on those. I wanted to write this review to give my honest opinion. I looked into this ring for many months, trying to decide whether to buy it. I wanted to pay more attention to my stress levels, and my sleeping patterns, and I hate wearing a watch in bed.”

“The app alone is wonderful. I love reviewing my stats. The ring is on the bulky side compared to other wearables on the market. Paying $500 for the gold color to me is not really worth it. I believe that wearing something daily is going to show wear but I’ve had my ring for 4 months and there is major scratches on it. The care instructions says to avoid handling pots and pans or weightlifting etc ”
