The Oura Ring 4 is officially here, showcasing several improvements over its predecessor, the Gen 3 model released back in 2022. In this article, we will discuss everything about the latest Oura Ring 4, including its expected price in Nepal.
Oura Ring 4 Overview
Design and Build
The new Oura Ring features a full titanium exterior and interior, moving away from the epoxy used in the previous version. It has a thickness of 2.88mm and weighs between 3.3 and 5.2 grams, depending on the size. Additionally, it is water-resistant up to 100 meters.
The Oura Ring 4 showcases a sleek, minimalist design. It incorporates red and infrared LEDs to monitor heart rate and blood oxygen levels, complemented by green LEDs for heart rate variability readings. An accelerometer is positioned to observe movement and sleep patterns, while a digital temperature sensor helps detect changes in body temperature.
Sensors
The sensors inside the Oura Ring 4 are now slimmer, measuring just 0.3mm compared to 1.3mm in the Gen 3 model. Despite the reduced size, Oura claims to offer improved accuracy in measurements. The new ring reportedly shows a 120% improvement in blood oxygen (SpO2) readings and a 30% increase in sleep accuracy. Furthermore, the heart rate sensor is more precise, minimizing gaps in both daytime and nighttime measurements.
Health and Activity Tracking
The Oura Ring 4 introduces enhanced automatic activity detection, supporting over 40 modes. It includes heart rate monitoring with a breakdown of heart rate zones. In addition, the device tracks sleep and stress levels and monitors reproductive health trends. Notably, some of these features will also be available for the older Ring Gen 3 through a software update. The battery life of the Oura Ring 4 lasts up to 8 days on a single charge. It charges using a new charging dock.
