Here’s where you can preorder the new Oura Ring 5

If you’ve been waiting for a smaller version of the Oura Ring, the company’s latest wearable is now available for preorder ahead of its June 4th release from Oura and various third-party retailers, including both Amazon and Walmart. The Oura Ring 5, which starts at $399, is 40 percent smaller than its predecessor, thanks to a design that’s both slimmer and lighter. Oura also promises improved accuracy and battery life, letting you get up to nine days of use on a single charge.In addition to the aforementioned hardware changes, Oura is rolling out several new software features, including a Locate tool for finding a misplaced ring or charging case using Oura’s app. On the fitness front, the company is introducing a live activity mode for real-time workout and heart rate tracking, along with support for third-party heart rate monitors and new GLP-1 tracking tools. Oura also announced Health Radar, a system that monitors nighttime breathing and blood pressure patterns for signs of potential health issues, and partnered with Counsel Health to bring AI-assisted medical guidance to the app.We’re still testing the Ring 5, but if everything announced thus far has your attention, we’ve included links and pricing details below.

Where to buy the Oura Ring 5

Oura Ring 5

Where to Buy:

$399 at Amazon
$399 at Walmart
$399 at Best Buy

Beginning today, you can preorder the Ring 5 at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and Oura’s online storefront in either silver or black, starting at $399. Premium colors — including the gold, stealth, brushed silver, and deep rose variants — are also available from the same retailers starting at $499. Each model includes a size-specific charger and a USB-C cable, and, like prior iterations, is eligible for HSA and FSA reimbursement in the US.In terms of sizing, Oura’s latest smart ring is available in sizes 6 through 13 with a free sizing kit, which is helpful since the slimmer design means sizing differs from previous Oura Ring models. Like prior iterations, the ring works with both iPhones and Android devices, though you’ll still need an Oura membership ($5.99 a month / $69.99 a year) to access all of the platform’s health insights and features.Along with the ring, Oura is launching the Oura Ring 5 Charging Case, which supports wireless charging and can provide up to a month of battery life. It also sports an action b***on that lets you quickly pair the case and check charging status. Like the Ring 5, the case will hit stores on June 4th, though you can preorder it starting today at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Oura’s online storefront for $99.

I tried playing PC games on my phone, and the only thing that worked was a community rebuild of the most controversial app in the scene

Playing Windows games on an Android phone has gone from being a novelty to something people can actually do in approximately two short years, and most of that movement has come about as a result of a single tool: Winlator. Winlator stacks Wine on top of x86/x86_64 translation layers like...

Your charger’s specs matter way more than you think, and here’s what actually protects your devices

Modern charging bricks are little computers of their own, packed with circuitry to protect your devices from issues while charging. If you stick to reputable brands, they should be of good enough quality, and that's partly why we haven't done any charger reviews for a while.

I tried Gemini’s Daily Brief, and my morning app-hopping is over

Before even trying Gemini’s Daily Brief, I thought it wasn’t going to be much. I thought it would give me a general overview of my tasks, or at least some random news. Guilty as charged for not giving it enough credit. It showed me more than I expected, gave me...

Your SSD health may be “Good,” but disk write errors mean you should start worrying sooner

Many people rightly believe that panicking about SSD lifespan is pointless, since most PCs will never write enough data to a drive to exhaust its endurance. If you check your SSD's health with CrystalDiskInfo or a first-party tool, you'll probably see "Good" or "Normal" under "Drive Health." You'll probably see...

I stopped fighting Windows 11’s Start menu — and found a fix Microsoft never bothered to build

Almost five years with Windows 11, and Microsoft has made several changes to the Start menu. But the core usability problems never got fixed. The oversized layout, the Recommended section taking up valuable space, and the lack of meaningful customization made it feel oddly limited on a desktop PC. In...

I tested these “old” GPUs with 2026 AAA games, and the results were weirdly encouraging

Buying a GPU always used to feel like an investment, and a long-term one, at that. You'd spend good money on a GPU, and it would carry you through years of new releases without making you feel like you were falling behind every six months. In fact, I'm willing to...
