If your fitness goals are already slipping as January draws to a close, a newer site has just dropped a popular wearable down to a tempting new price. The Oura Ring 4 has been marked down from online retailer Healf. You can save up to £45 on this wearable in the shades Brushed Silver, Gold, or Rose Gold.
Healf was only founded in 2020 and has quickly grown into an online destination for health and wellness products, with a focus on supplements, fitness, mental wellbeing, and sleep.
Oura rings have been known to only go on sale a few times a year for major shopping events like Black Friday.
With its rare promotions, this could be the best one we'll see for a while. For comparison, the Oura Ring 4 in gold is priced on Oura's online site for £499, but you can snag it on Healf's online site for only £454.
Not familiar with this wearable? Unlike devices such as Fitbit or Apple Watch that track activity from your wrist with a display screen, the Oura Ring is a sleek smart ring designed to monitor your health and wellbeing around the clock.
Powered by advanced sensors, it tracks sleep quality, heart rate, body temperature trends, and daily activity, with all insights displayed through the Oura app rather than on the ring itself.
While it has many standout fitness features, it's also been known as a top choice if you want a detailed sleep analysis and readiness score, which helps you understand how prepared your body is for the day.
If you want to grab one on sale, they'll only be marked down for a limited time.
Save up to £45 on the Oura Ring 4
You can save up to £45 on the Oura Ring 4 Metallics in gold, rose gold, and brushed silver. This handy wearable blends premium style with advanced health tracking. Its sleek metal finish feels durable and modern, making it easy to wear day and night. It monitors sleep stages, heart rate, activity, and readiness with impressive accuracy, while offering up to a week of battery life. It's an ideal choice if you want detailed insights without the bulky tech on your wrist.
It's also available in a wider range of sizes — now extending from size 4 to size 15.
Oura Ring 4
This discreet wearable comes with a wide range of noteworthy features.
“Oura Ring is designed to be a personal health companion, giving our members a holistic view of their health by pairing personal data with meaningful, actionable insights to facilitate long-term changes,” says Tom Hale, Oura CEO.
“The next-generation Oura Ring 4, reimagined Oura App, and the development of the Smart Sensing platform represent significant steps forward for wearables across accuracy, comfort, personalisation, and design.”
For starters, its battery life can last five to eight days on a single charge, and it only needs 20-80 minutes to recharge with its included USB-C power source. If you want to extend its life, Oura also just released a brand new accessory to give your battery a boost.
It's designed with recessed sensors and a fully titanium inner and outer coating — meaning a much more comfortable wear for all day compared to older models.
The Oura Ring 4 is also designed around the health tech company's Smart Sensing technology. This helps to deliver continuous, accurate data around your activity, such as your sleep quality or fitness levels.
Speaking of data, this wearable comes with three enhanced new features.
First, the Automatic Activity Detection (ADD) now includes your average heart rate and heart rate zones for more than 40 different activities. You'll get a full overview of your movement throughout the day.

This is similar to the latest Apple Watch features found in the watchOS 26 software update released this past autumn.
You'll also get a new Fertile Window in the Cycle Insights section of features. This gives more information to women about their cycle and fertility journey who may be trying to conceive.
Finally, you'll be able to find out even more about your stress levels in the Daytime Stress section. You can learn more about your different stress patterns throughout the course of the day and how your daily habits are affecting your stress and recovery.

If you want to take advantage of all these personalised features, though, you'll need to download the Oura app.
The Oura app is what will let you see and monitor all of your activity. There are two different versions — free or paid (£5.99).
For comparison, this is less than the monthly cost of the Fitbit premium membership (£7.99/month) and the Apple Fitness+ subscription (£9.99/month).

To really be able to see all of your data and take full advantage of what your ring can do, it may be worth the additional monthly cost.
The free version of the app will only give you access to basic sleep activity and minimal data on daily activity, so you won't be able to access the new features without the paid subscription, as mentioned above.
A paid membership will also give you access to the following:
- Blood oxygen sensing
- Temperature monitoring
- Activity goals and automatic detection
- Weekly, monthly, and yearly reports
- Women's Health insights (cycle and pregnancy tracking)
