Oura’s New Ring 5 Is Smaller and Lighter—and Adds an AI Health Coach
Oura’s New Ring 5 Is Smaller and Lighter—and Adds an AI Health Coach
Oura 新款 Ring 5 更小更轻,并新增 AI 健康教练功能
Two years on since the Oura Ring 4, Finnish health tech company Oura is back with a new smart ring—right in time to compete with the other screenless fitness tracker of the moment, the Fitbit Air. The Oura Ring 5 doubles down on the company’s minimalist ethos with a smaller ring design, upgraded durability, and—unsurprisingly—a suite of AI-powered wellness features.
继 Oura Ring 4 发布两年后,芬兰健康科技公司 Oura 带着新款智能戒指回归了——恰逢其时地与当下另一款无屏健身追踪器 Fitbit Air 展开竞争。Oura Ring 5 进一步强化了该公司的极简主义理念,采用了更小的戒指设计、提升了耐用性,并不出所料地加入了一套人工智能驱动的健康功能。
The Ring 5 is available for preorder today and begins shipping June 4. It starts at $399 in silver and black, while premium finishes—Stealth, Brushed Silver, an updated Gold, and a new Deep Rose color—cost $499. Oura’s subscription pricing remains the same at $6 per month or $70 annually. The Charging Case is also available for preorder in select markets. The ring, charging case, and Oura membership all qualify for HSA and FSA reimbursement in the US.
Ring 5 即日起开启预购,并将于 6 月 4 日开始发货。银色和黑色款起售价为 399 美元,而高端配色(隐形黑、拉丝银、升级版金色以及全新的深玫瑰色)售价为 499 美元。Oura 的订阅价格保持不变,仍为每月 6 美元或每年 70 美元。充电盒也已在部分市场开启预购。在美国,该戒指、充电盒及 Oura 会员资格均符合 HSA(健康储蓄账户)和 FSA(灵活支出账户)的报销条件。
Tiny Ring, Big Ambitions
小戒指,大志向
At 6.09 mm wide and 2.28 mm thick, Oura’s latest ring is 40 percent smaller than the Ring 4, which the company claims makes it the world’s smallest smart ring. The titanium exterior is now coated with a new physical vapor deposition (PVD) to improve scratch resistance, and the ring itself is dustproof and water-resistant up to 100 meters with an IP68 rating.
Oura 的这款最新戒指宽 6.09 毫米,厚 2.28 毫米,比 Ring 4 小了 40%,公司称其为全球最小的智能戒指。钛金属外壳现在采用了全新的物理气相沉积(PVD)涂层以提高耐刮擦性,戒指本身具备防尘功能,并拥有 IP68 级防水性能,可在水下 100 米正常工作。
Shrinking the Oura Ring hasn’t come at the expense of performance. Oura says the Ring 5 is more accurate than its predecessor, thanks to LEDs four times more powerful and redesigned sensors positioned closer to the skin for improved signal detection. The ring supposedly incorporates 12 independent signal pathways to refine accuracy across a range of finger shapes and skin tones. Battery life gets a modest boost, too, with Oura claiming between six and nine days per charge, up from the Ring 4’s five-to-eight-day range.
缩小 Oura Ring 的体积并没有牺牲性能。Oura 表示,得益于功率提升四倍的 LED 灯以及重新设计、更贴近皮肤的传感器,Ring 5 的信号检测能力得到提升,比前代产品更精准。据悉,该戒指集成了 12 条独立的信号通路,以优化针对不同手指形状和肤色的测量精度。电池续航也得到了小幅提升,Oura 声称单次充电可使用 6 到 9 天,高于 Ring 4 的 5 到 8 天。
Oura is also releasing a new portable Charging Case ($99), which can add an extra month of battery life, or roughly five full charges. The case has a button to check its charging status and pairing. It’s also compatible with the new Locate feature rolling out to Gen 2 devices and newer, allowing users to track misplaced rings and charging cases through the Oura app.
Oura 还发布了一款全新的便携式充电盒(售价 99 美元),可额外提供一个月的续航,即大约五次完整充电。充电盒上设有一个按钮,用于检查充电状态和配对情况。它还兼容即将在第二代及更新设备上推出的“定位(Locate)”功能,允许用户通过 Oura App 追踪丢失的戒指和充电盒。

The most notable changes arrive on the software side. Oura is positioning the Ring 5 as a proactive health platform, much like how Google is positioning its AI Health Coach at the center of the redesigned Google Health app.
最显著的变化来自软件方面。Oura 将 Ring 5 定位为一个主动式健康平台,这与谷歌将其 AI 健康教练置于重新设计的 Google Health App 核心位置的策略非常相似。
Central to that shift is Oura Advisor, the company’s large-language-model-powered assistant that debuted last year, and Oura’s proprietary AI model for women’s health. The company is partnering with Counsel Health to integrate AI-assisted health guidance with access to licensed physicians through Oura Advisor. Via the integration, you can ask health questions, receive personalized guidance, and connect with health care professionals from the app.
这一转变的核心是 Oura Advisor——该公司去年推出的大语言模型驱动的助手,以及 Oura 专有的女性健康 AI 模型。该公司正与 Counsel Health 合作,通过 Oura Advisor 将 AI 辅助的健康指导与持证医师咨询服务相结合。通过这一整合,用户可以在 App 内提出健康问题、获得个性化建议,并与医疗专业人员取得联系。
Fitness tracking is getting an overhaul. A new live activity mode lets users start workouts from the app and view heart rate, pace, and distance in real time through lock-screen widgets, so you don’t even have to unlock your phone mid-session. For activities where a smart ring can be uncomfortable, such as powerlifting, the app now supports third-party heart-rate monitors and select devices, so you can continue to capture live workout data without wearing the ring itself. Oura also says its updated Automatic Activity Detection is significantly more accurate than previous generations, particularly for lower-motion exercises like pilates.
健身追踪功能也进行了全面升级。全新的实时活动模式允许用户从 App 启动锻炼,并通过锁屏小组件实时查看心率、配速和距离,无需在运动中解锁手机。对于佩戴智能戒指可能不适的运动(如力量举重),该 App 现在支持第三方心率监测器和部分设备,因此即使不佩戴戒指,也能持续捕捉实时锻炼数据。Oura 还表示,其更新后的自动活动检测功能比前几代产品准确得多,尤其是在普拉提等低运动量的锻炼中。
Then there’s Oura’s preventive health ambitions: Health Radar, which builds on the Symptom Radar feature introduced in 2024. Health Radar continuously analyzes biometric patterns in the background to flag subtle changes before they become more obvious problems. At launch, Health Radar centers around two new functions: Blood Pressure Signals and Nighttime Breathing.
此外,Oura 在预防性健康领域也有所布局:Health Radar(健康雷达),该功能建立在 2024 年推出的“症状雷达”基础上。Health Radar 在后台持续分析生物识别模式,以便在细微变化演变成明显问题之前发出预警。发布初期,Health Radar 主要围绕两项新功能:血压信号(Blood Pressure Signals)和夜间呼吸(Nighttime Breathing)。
Blood Pressure Signals continuously analyzes biometric trends that may correlate with cardiovascular strain. A new Nighttime Blood Pressure capability monitors whether blood pressure drops appropriately during sleep. Oura says this metric may reveal cardiovascular risks that daytime readings may miss. You can also add cuff readings to provide additional context.
“血压信号”功能会持续分析可能与心血管压力相关的生物识别趋势。全新的“夜间血压”功能可监测睡眠期间血压是否正常下降。Oura 表示,这一指标可能揭示白天测量时容易被忽略的心血管风险。用户还可以添加袖带式血压计的读数,以提供更多背景信息。
Meanwhile, Nighttime Breathing provides a rolling 30-day view of breathing disturbances during sleep to identify changes that could affect sleep quality or signal underlying issues. Earlier this month, Oura announced a partnership with Resmed that offers users with elevated nighttime breathing alerts access to sleep health resources, complete sleep assessments, and the option to connect with independent healthcare providers for potential diagnosis and treatment.
与此同时,“夜间呼吸”功能提供过去 30 天内睡眠期间呼吸紊乱的滚动视图,以识别可能影响睡眠质量或预示潜在问题的变化。本月初,Oura 宣布与 Resmed 达成合作,为收到夜间呼吸异常提醒的用户提供睡眠健康资源、完整的睡眠评估,以及联系独立医疗服务提供商进行潜在诊断和治疗的选项。
Metabolic health is another growing focus. Oura is introducing GLP-1 medication self-management tools that allow users to log and track dosing schedules, side effects, and weight changes. Oura is also expanding its Health Panels feature with Lab Uploads, so you can import blood test results and compare biomarkers over time. In the US, subscribers can connect eligible providers to import diagnosed conditions, medications, and lab results into a Personal Health Record in the app.
代谢健康是另一个日益受到关注的领域。Oura 正在引入 GLP-1 药物自我管理工具,允许用户记录和追踪用药计划、副作用及体重变化。Oura 还通过“实验室上传(Lab Uploads)”功能扩展了其健康面板,用户可以导入血液检测结果并对比不同时期的生物标志物。在美国,订阅用户可以连接符合条件的医疗服务提供商,将诊断结果、用药情况和化验结果导入 App 内的个人健康记录中。
The new launch comes with a stronger emphasis on privacy controls, according to Oura. A new time-based Data Deletion feature lets users—across all Oura generations—erase data from specific periods without wiping their long-term history. Members also have more granular oversight with configurable controls over how their data is used and shared with third parties.
据 Oura 称,此次新品发布更加强调隐私控制。一项全新的基于时间的“数据删除”功能,允许所有代际的 Oura 用户删除特定时间段的数据,而无需清除长期的历史记录。会员还可以通过可配置的控制选项,更精细地管理其数据如何被使用以及如何与第三方共享。
The Ring 5 is available in sizes 6 through 13, and Oura recommends all consumers, including existing members, use the company’s updated sizing kit before ordering, since the smaller design may fit differently than previous generations. Also new is multi-ring support, allowing users to pair and switch between multiple Ring 4 and Ring 5 devices on a single account at no additional charge.
Ring 5 提供 6 到 13 号尺寸,Oura 建议所有消费者(包括现有会员)在订购前使用公司更新后的尺寸测量套件,因为更小的设计可能与前几代产品的佩戴感有所不同。此外,新功能还支持多戒指连接,允许用户在同一个账户下配对并切换多个 Ring 4 和 Ring 5 设备,无需额外费用。
