If you have Oura Ring 3, you don't need an Apple Watch? what you can do and what you can't do
Don't compare! But I'm still thinking about it. Oura, a smart ring with a reputation for sleep tracking, has released the third product, Oura Ring 3. Until now, Oura Ring has been a stance of measuring heart rate to track sleep quality, but Oura Ring 3 now tracks heart rate not only during sleep but also around the clock. With future updates, it will be possible to measure the heart rate during exercise, and we are trying to evolve into a total tracking device that includes not only sleep but also exercise. [See all images] If you have Oura Ring 3, you don't need an Apple Watch? I've been unable to fall in love with the Apple Watch for a long time, seeing what it can and can't do, so why not switch to the Oura Ring 3? I thought. Of course, Oura Ring 3 doesn't have a screen, so I can't see notifications from my iPhone, but it seems that I can record my exercise with Oura, and I wonder if notifications and iPhone linkage are that important for a stay-at-home life. There is also a question. So I decided to buy the Oura Ring 3 and give it a try. Will the Oura Ring 3 replace the Apple Watch?
What you can do with Oura Ring 3
First, let's organize what you can do with Oura Ring 3. Oura Ring 3 measures your heart rate, respiration rate, body temperature, etc. with your finger, and based on that, calculates the scores of "sleep", "activity" and "condition" and displays them on the app. By looking at each score and its basis, it becomes easier to make decisions such as "Let's walk one station" or "Let's rest because I'm feeling tired." In addition to the summarized score, you can also check detailed analysis such as light sleep time / deep sleep time and general indicators such as calories burned. Body temperature is also tracked in the form of "changes in body surface temperature", so menstrual prediction can be used for women. Data such as heart rate during exercise and blood oxygen level during sleep will also be added in the 2022 update. Also, I don't use it much, but there are meditation and breathing sessions in the app. Part of the website does not support Japanese, but the app does support Japanese. The price varies depending on the color, silver and black are $ 299 (about 34,000 yen), Stealth (matte black) and gold are $ 399 (about 45,000 yen). If you buy from Japan, you will need to pay the customs duty when you receive it, but even so, it seems cheaper to buy directly from the website than from an import agent. In addition, a monthly subscription contract of $ 6.99 (about 800 yen) is required to use the full function, but it will be free for half a year after purchase.
