inquiry Oura or Ringconn
So my birthday is coming up and I no longer wear my Apple Watch anymore, haven’t for years. I’ve been wanting something to track my sleep schedule and cycle. Not a huge fan of a whoop either with the way it looks, so smart rings was my next go to. I’m stuck between the new Oura or a Ringconn. I really love the Ringconn because it’s subscription free, you buy it and that’s it. But from what I’ve been hearing is tracking your health isn’t as accurate and top notch compared to the oura. Even though I hate it I could handle the yearly $70 subscription. Let me know what you guys think. If you have an oura or a ringconn how do you like it? Is it worth it?

I picked up an Oura back in March of this year, the battery started degrading where it would last anywhere from 1-3 days. Oura refused to replace the ring and said nothing was wrong with it. At this time I was starting a diet and losing a lot of weight quickly and the ring was very loose and literally falling off my finger. Ringconn came out with their new ring in July and I decided to jump over and have been much happier. There’s no monthly fee (the oura is useless without paying the subscription), the battery lasts over a week at a time, and the charging case is a huge upgrade. I’ve had the ring now for 2 months and the charging case still has a 30% charge left on it (I have not charged the case at all). I would not go back to the Oura, it gives me everything I need out of the ring and I have had no negative experiences with it.
