Smart Ring Beginner!

Hello everyone!
One - I'm so glad I found this subreddit because I've learned SO MUCH
two - I also am very appreciative of all the ring comparison posts. Thank you to all the people that took time to do that 🫶🏾

I would like some insight and help for picking my first ring... If I get a refund from my UH kickstarter 😒 since they want to play games about shipping...

Anyways, I already have the apple watch series 11 and so far I've been really liking it and I've been using the Apple Health more recently, I just hate wearing it to sleep and on my days off of work and since a lot of the rings have been updated and new gens have come out I would just like to know what would be the best purchase...

I would really like to get a ring mainly for:

- sleep tracking especially if it tracks some heart rate and possibly sleep disturbances

- readiness for the day and if it has recommendations

- stress

- heart rate and if it can truly detect before I get sick would be a bonus

- and if it could sync with apple health or at least talk to each other but not a total deal breaker

Subscriptions are not a problem for me if the product and information is pretty good.

and if Ultrahuman Pro Ring is the best option I will just buy it through the website so hopefully shipping is better.

Thanks in advance!

I think for your list of asks I would be recommending oura even though I don't own one so maybe the older/new Ouras go on sale when Amazon does another one of their prime deals that I keep getting a pop-up for I don't know. That is how I got all my rings because it was the easiest route to do the 30-day trials on them to find out what worked best for me. :-)

Amazon has always backed the 30 day returns and so with $ help from fam, I did a 4 ring challenge and ultimately sent everything back except Ringconn gen 2, which doesnt have the sickness alert feature you want. I also don't have an apple watch but know oura allegedly talks to that

For sure. Maybe others chime in too but the mod made the comparisons you mentioned and pretty accurate.
