Having access to your health and fitness metrics is a great thing, but it means having to wear a smartwatch or fitness tracker 24/7, which isn’t great.
Oura Ring (third generation) is a new type of wearable that crams many of the sensors found in a smartwatch into a ring. Barely larger than a normal ring, the latest generation Oura Ring has seven temperature sensors, a new green LED heart-rate sensor, an SpO2 sensor, battery, and accelero- meters.

Ray-Ban Stories
Billed as a sleep and recovery tracker, Oura Ring has found fans among celebs, including Prince Harry and Jennifer Aniston, and professional athletes (the NBA bought 2 000 Oura Rings to monitor players). Available in a range of colours and comfortable to wear, the latest Oura Ring is far more adept than its predecessors at identifying when your body needs rest before tackling a strenuous workout.
My favourite feature is that it prioritises weekly instead of daily activity, which means no more getting shamed by my wearable for being chained to my desk on a particular day.
