Oura focuses on holistic health rather than just steps. It tracks over 50 metrics, but these are its core strengths:

• Sleep & Readiness: It provides a Sleep Score and a daily Readiness Score (1–100) to tell you if your body is ready for stress or needs rest. Its sleep staging algorithm has 79% agreement with polysomnography (the clinical gold standard).

• New Health Radar Features: The Ring 5 introduces proactive monitoring for Blood Pressure Signals (tracking overnight patterns) and Nighttime Breathing to help detect potential issues like hypertension or sleep apnea signs.

• Women’s Health: It tracks cycle phases, predicts fertile windows, and offers pregnancy and menopause insights.
