Oura Ring 5 launches 40% smaller, maintaining battery life

The Oura Ring 5 has been redesigned to be 40% smaller than its predecessor, addressing a common concern about the bulkiness of smart rings. Despite the reduced size, the device maintains its battery life, offering up to a week of use on a single charge. The ring continues to monitor activity, heart rate, and temperature, providing users with health insights through an app that generates scores for sleep, activity, and readiness. New features like Health Radar, which algorithmically derives metrics such as blood pressure from existing sensor data, are being rolled out, though some are not yet available in all regions. AI
