You’ve heard some good things about the Oura Ring, but it might be too expensive for a ring. Or maybe you’re not quite sure whether it’s a worthy investment for such a tiny device. If you’re looking for alternatives to Oura, we rounded up the best Oura dupes so you can get your hands on what the most popular smart ring feels like.
Oura Ring is a Finnish health-tracking wearable that enables you to keep tabs on your sleep, activities, heart rate, body temperature, blood oxygen, period prediction, and recovery, among other things. Since it first came out in 2015, Oura dominated the health smart ring segment with Hollywood celebrities and world-class athletes being part of its cult following. Soon, we will be able to get a more powerful smart ring through the Oura Ring 4.
A few years later, competitors like Ultrahuman Ring Air, Ringconn, and Evie Ring surfaced and we got a bunch of options on the market. And we will soon get our hands on a few other players such as the Amazfit Helio Ring, Circular Ring, and Samsung Galaxy Ring.
For $349, diving head first into Oura Ring might not make sense total sense for you. But don’t worry because there are a bunch of smart rings available that you can try first to test the water. Here are our top picks for the best Oura Ring dupes:
1. Amovan Smart Ring
One of the most affordable health-tracking smart rings, Amovan boasts a bunch of features you will find in Oura Ring, including sleep monitoring, activity tracking, and heart rate monitoring. Two things to take note—the smart ring does not have continuous heart rate tracking but instead checks it every 30 minutes, and it automatically records sleep from 10 PM to 8 AM. The Amovan Smart Ring costs $169.
2. Ultrahuman Ring Air
Not necessarily cheaper than the Oura Ring with a price point at $349, the Ultrahuman Ring Air is on this list because of its ongoing battle against Oura for “copying” the latter. Issues aside, this smart ring is a pretty good contender against Oura with all the health-tracking functionalities plus you get continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) into the bargain, which is something you won’t find in other smart rings or health wearables.
3. Ringconn
One of the biggest selling points of Ringconn is its comprehensive approach at health monitoring at an affordable price—all for no subscription fee (apparently a direct dig at Oura). For $279, award-winning Ringconn provides you with a 24/7 heart rate and blood oxygen saturation monitoring, detailed sleep quality analysis, and all-day activity tracking.
4. Femometer Ring
Designed for women, the Femometer Ring mainly tracks menstrual cycle which is a practical tool for planning or avoiding pregnancy. On top of period prediction, the Femometer Ring also takes health-tracking wholistically by tracking sleep, activities, heart rates, body temperature, and recovery. The Femometer Ring costs $149.
5. Omate Ice Ring
For smart ring enthusiasts in Europe, the Omate Ice Ring is an advanced option for a health wearable. Besides all the basic health monitoring functionalities, this smart ring has GPS enabled to give users a view of their distances and maps through the app. The Omate Ice Ring costs $199.
6. Rogbid Smart Ring
Although a fairly new device, the Rogbid Smart Ring is a worthy contender to Oura. For $129, it features typical functionalities of health-tracking smart rings for sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, and even menstrual cycle. It does have a slew of features outside health that allows you to capture photos and control music, and an emergency SOS function. The Rogbid Smart Ring costs $199.
7. Noise Luna Ring
Available only in India, the Noise Luna Ring is one of the best health smart rings outside the US and Europe. Luna Ring can track more than 70 biometric signals, including sleep stages, sleep duration, continuous heart rate, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, and body temperature. Luna Ring also has a recovery monitoring system to gauge how stressed or well-rested your body is. Luna Ring costs 21,999 rupees or about $265.
8. Boat Smart Ring
Another smart from India is the Boat Smart Ring, a versatile smart ring for monitoring sleep, fitness, heart rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, mentrual cycle, and recovery. It also has smart touch controls that allows you play or pause music, capture photos from your phone, and control other apps. The Boat Smart Ring costs 19,999 rupees or about $240.
9. Rollme R1
A new smart ring released in January 2024, Rollme R1 is a promising wearable that can track your sleep, activities, heart rate, body temperature, and blood oxygen levels. Rollme R1 can track nightly rest automatically set between 10 PM and 8 AM. It also checks your heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) every 30 minutes, but you have the option to measure them manually. Rollme R1 costs $229.
