Sizing Information

Accurate sizing is essential for optimal performance of your OURA Ring 4. Oura Ring sizes differ from standard jewelry ring sizes. It is highly recommended to use an Oura Ring Sizing Kit to determine your correct size before purchasing the actual ring.

Sizing Kit Process:

1. Purchase the Oura Ring 4 Sizing Kit: This kit contains multiple plastic rings to help you find the perfect fit.
2. Try on Multiple Sizes: Experiment with different sizes from the kit on your preferred finger.
3. Wear for 24 Hours: Once you find a comfortable fit, wear that plastic ring for at least 24 hours to ensure it remains comfortable throughout the day and night, accounting for natural finger swelling.
4. Find Your Most Comfortable Fit: The ideal fit should be snug but not tight, allowing for easy removal.

For best performance and accuracy, OURA recommends wearing the ring on your index finger. If you wear a wedding ring, consider wearing the OURA Ring on the other hand or a different finger to avoid interference.

Charging & Battery

The OURA Ring 4 boasts a long-lasting battery, providing up to 8 days of use on a single charge. Charging is simple and convenient:
