Oura Gen 3 review: can smart ring worn by celebs and athletes work for you?

Comprehensive sleep, recovery and health tracking without a smartwatch appeals, but cost and fit won't suit everyone

Smart rings are having a bit of a moment with the Oura seen adorning the fingers of celebrities and elite sportspeople alike. It promises the health-tracking features of a smartwatch squeezed into a much smaller, less techie device focused on sleep, recovery and resilience. But can it deliver for regular people, too?

Now several years into its third iteration, the Oura Gen 3 is the most popular smart ring on the market, available in a range of attractive colours, metals and sizes. It looks and feels like an attractive piece of jewellery, and is priced accordingly, costing from 299 (329/$299) and requiring a 6-a-month subscription on top. Keeping up with celebrity crazes has never been cheap.
