Exploring the New Oura Ring 4: The Samsung Galaxy Ring’s Stiffest Competition Yet
Oura Ring 4 Hands-On Experience
The Oura Ring 4, like a stealthy ninja in the night, may have just knocked the Samsung Galaxy Ring off its high horse. I've been wearing the Galaxy Ring since it launched in late July — and I've been adorning it on my ring finger non-stop. I praised it for a handful of features, including its graceful interactions with my Galaxy S24 Ultra (it can trigger the shutter button in the Camera app). Plus, the absence of a subscription fee is always a bonus.
As the weeks have passed, however, I’ve grown bored of the Samsung Galaxy Ring — it’s missing something. It needs more. And then — wham! — the Oura Ring 4 just got announced, threatening to wipe out all of its competitors. A new wearable beast has entered the ring, pun intended, and it’s got the Galaxy Ring squarely in its crosshairs, ready to deliver the knockout blow.
Comparative Analysis
For the uninitiated, the Oura Ring 4, similar to the Samsung Galaxy Ring, has a bumpy interior due to its sensors. In my opinion, the bumpiness is barely perceptible for both wearables. For example, Mashable's Chris Taylor, who reviewed the Oura Ring 3, claims that the sensors felt like a minor inconvenience rather than a setback.
