WHOOP 4.0 vs. Oura Ring 3 (Hands-on Comparison)

I’ve been wearing a WHOOP Strap since 2019, and many viewers have asked me to compare that device with the Oura Ring — a futuristic-looking wearable that packs a ton of advanced sensors into a tiny form factor. So in this video, I’ll tell you everything you need to know about the similarities and differences between these two powerful fitness trackers, with the goal of helping you decide which one is right for you given your personal health and wellness goals.

Here’s my take in a nutshell…

While the Oura Ring is a marvel of technology, it has not been as accurate in my testing as WHOOP, making the device an incredibly cool gadget that may not be worth the $300 price tag.

At the same time, I liked the Oura Ring enough to keep the one I purchased for testing, and I now wear it in combination with my WHOOP Strap (and an Apple Watch). Depending on your particular use cases, it may or may not provide the functionality and data you need.

Great review my friend. I am surprised your video does not have more views and comments. Thank you, I was leaning towards Oura but will consider Whoop now.

Great review!! Very clear and detailed. Much appreciated friend

Currently with Oura 3 and I’m ready to move over to the Whoop. Our rushed Gen 2 users to upgrading and now they have delayed all the important features up until later this year. I feel scammed in a way.

Thanks for the review! Will use your link when I’m ready.

Hi Michael, Just one little thing about the charging of the Oura : it's possible to charge your ring with the charger of your wife if you put the captor nicely against the sensors. But of course the countrary is not possible because your wife's ring doesn't fit in your charger. I can certify you this information because that's what I do with my ring and the charger of my partner. ;) Thank you for your video really qualittive.

I only need a device to positively influence my rest and sleep patterns. I am not big on working out etc. Which one do you recommend?

[MarcoLucisano]

Great video, are you planning to try the Circular smart ring as well?

if I don't pay the monthly fee, I can't see contributors.
Is it true?
Do you recommend to pay monthly fee?

Be absolutely clear that Whoop’s sleep tracker is highly flawed. Last night it recorded that I was “awake” for 4 hours and 35 minutes. Absolute nonsense.
