Oura Ring 1

I had a bunch of coworkers get the oura ring last year with out fsa money. I had other necessities but I thought about it for a year and decided to get a ceramic one. I like that you can buff out the scratches I’ve had in 3 weeks ish and so far I like it. I look at my sleep, period and stress. I have a ton of stress (single mom to a teenager and I work with young children). My Apple Watch battery sucks after 4+years. And I like that the ring isn’t a constant distraction like the ring

Agreed. I’ve V1 Oura and it still tracks my sleep without needing a subscription. I don’t want to get a new ring as it will automatically add the subscription and I need another subscription like I need anal warts. This set up sucks. You’re paying perpetually for a product you already paid for

Smh one time I saw someone with an apple watch, a whoop, and an oura at the same time so you're good Eta I saw another commenter say that they had this and all I gotta say is you better do a writeup with your recommendations

If you had to recommend one to someone who mostly uses their whoop for sleep but does like the daily strain and stress monitor and also lifts often, which would it be?? I've had whoop for so long but i'm curious about oura! I just worry that I would take it off for so many activities that I wouldnt be able to go back and compare my days as well.

I'm very happy with it also. I have also used Whoop, Oura, Apple Watch and Garmin yet Amazfit is what I'm with now. Regarding subscriptions, follow what Bevel is doing. Subscription optional and for advanced AI, but expand and integrate it like they are.

I’ve gone both ways with this and back with AWU and Oura. Whoop has a beautiful UI but is largely inaccurate on HR reading for me. So that throws everything else off. I’ve tested Whoop and AWU against the gold standard HR chest strap and the AWU is insanely accurate for me on my wrist. Whoop, not so much. Really wanted Whoop to work too. I’ve tested this over and over. Data nerd.

I haven't looked at the calc methods yet, but I'm currently trialling Whoop and Oura with my Polar Pacer Pro. I only have 7 days of data so far, as you can see, correlation is high but Polar HRV is always 10-20ms higher. A late, but sober night on day 2. Alcohol on day 5 and a little bit on day 6... I'm primarily doing this for sleep data, but when my legs aren't playing up I run, hence the Polar device.

The telemetry is pretty phenomenal. I tried oura in the last year and did the one month demo of Whoop. It is a bit tedious but getting better once you dial in the particulars of how tight you wear it and where on your arm.
