I guess it's not really morning where you are,

but it's morning for me.

I just dropped what we're doing today.

I thought today, it'd be cool to test another product.

So, today with me, I have the Oura sleep ring.

I guess let's get on with the video.

That's the worst intro I've ever done in my entire life,

but let's just get on with the video.

(bright music)

So the things that pretty much come in the package is,

it has a little charging pad and then the actual ring.

It looks fancy. I mean, I'm not gonna lie, it looks nice.

And I feel like it better be,

considering the price point is pretty high,

so I have high expectations for this.

I do have an Apple Watch which I think is about,

I don't know, depending on the Apple Watch you get,

probably about half the price,

maybe a little bit more than half the price

of the sleep ring, but the Apple Watch does have

pretty good sleep-tracking functions.

So, we're gonna see if it's different

for the ring versus the watch.

I don't know if your pulse is stronger

on your wrist or your finger.

I feel like, I'm ipsy, because sometimes the doctor shows

will do it on your wrist but then they also put that thing

on your finger when you're in surgery, so.

But, okay, let's see if this ring actually even fits,

I don't even know what finger it's supposed to go on.

It looks like a really high-tech ring.

It looks like something you would find in a movie,

where like you press it and it projects something weird

like in some sci-fi movie.

And I wouldn't wear this throughout the day,

I can't really close my fingers.

At night, I'm not sure if it would bother me or not.

It does have an app that you're supposed get with it

that pairs to your phone.

It looks like its main functions is to improve your sleep,

so the activity is actually part of that,

it gives you goals for your activity level

throughout the day so that you sleep better

and basically so there's a better balance.

I just had to type in my email

and now it's asking me to put in my birthday,

height, weight, gender, and what units I use,

which I feel is pretty standard

for most health apps anymore.

Now, it's asking me for what's my goal?

Let's go with manage stress levels,

I feel most teenagers have stress levels,

so let's go with that one.

Do any of the following affect your sleep right now?

Most of the times, I'm just like, school.

There's not even an option for school.

Oh, there's (laughs),

"I live a hectic life", that is mine, I clicked that one.

Get started.

Oh, wow, it just pulled up,

it was like, "Oh, do you want to pair?"

It's paired, I think.

Okay, it looks like it also has activity checking

as well as sleep checking.

So it kind of is just like a Fibit or an Apple Watch

but it's a ring, I guess, which is weird

because it's actually more expensive

than Fibits and Apple Watches and it has less capabilities,

so maybe the sleep tracking is just really good.

It's very well laid out, it looks really high tech.

But, it does look like,

I mean I haven't, obviously, tested it

so there's no data there yet,

but there are lots of charts and graphs

and things like that.

Also guys, don't be horrified

with the amount of sleep I get,

I think maybe get four hours right now, pretty standard.

All right, so my first impressions when I'm looking at this

and reading more about it.

I don't know, the way I look at it is

you can get an Apple Watch

and you can get millions of different apps

that do different things that track sleep

and exercise and stuff like that,

that will give you all the same alerts,

and you have lots more options.

And this ring just seems to narrow it down

and put it into one app, but I'm not sure if that's good

or bad because you lose a lot of freedom of choice

of which one you want and what different things you want,

for the amount of tracking it does that is pretty crazy

that it's all in a little ring.

I'm like, "Oh, it needs to be smaller",

but I mean, 40 years ago,

they would've been really amazed by this.

Oh look, guys, I already burned 3 calories,

just going like this.

So, pretty much, the real kicker here

is I'm gonna be wearing them both while I sleep.

I am going to be using a very credible sleep watching,

sleep tracking app for the Apple Watch,

it seems to be the best one on the App Store,

it has 175,000 four-star reviews or five-star reviews,

it's called Sleep Watch.

We're gonna be testing these to see the accuracy,

if they're different, if they say the same thing.

It seems like, basically, what it can do

is activity tracking, sleep tracking.

It does mention something about menstrual cycle tracking,

and it also does body temperature.

So, out of all those things, you can do all the same things

from your phone or Apple Watch.

The only one I don't think you can do is track temperature,

which is kinda cool, I don't know,

it's a thermometer or something,

that what's it called, right?

The one that... yeah.

Thermometer.

I guess it can detect when you have a fever,

or if you're sick and need to sleep more

or something like that.

But let's go ahead and test them, and see the difference.

(soft music)

So I'm finally ready to test the ring.

It is pretty late at night,

I'm going to bed a little bit later

than I would have liked because I had a homework assignment

that took longer than I thought it was going to.

Normally, I feel like, I don't know

the amount hours of sleep that I get,

but it's probably not what I'm supposed to be getting.

So I'm not really sure what these results

are even gonna say, honestly, I'm a pretty light sleeper.

I guess we'll just go ahead and test the ring.

See what it tracks.

(upbeat music)

All right, so I just wanna say,

that was the most sleep I've gotten in two weeks.

If that ring is actually accurate,

wow, I don't sleep eight hours, I'm sorry, I just don't.

Anyway, okay, first things first,

this ring is extremely uncomfortable.

I know I'm complaining a little bit,

but, literally, I don't know how to describe it,

but it's like my finger has a cramp.

I don't know if it's just 'cause I,

that hurts my finger, I don't know if I slept weird

or it was pressed on to my other finger last night,

something weird happened 'cause my hand hurts this morning.

It's bothering me today to have it on, but.

Actually, I do think it's pretty cool.

It did log my sleep results, it was really fast,

it was as soon as I woke up, it was like, oh.

I forgot, I think it said updating or something

and in two minutes I had all the information

from my sleep cycle and it's actually really interesting

I'm learning about this is my AP Psychology class right now

so it was, I see everything and I knew what it all meant.

It's really simple, I would say it's really simple,

it has everything laid out very clearly.

It tells you everything.

There's one thing though that said heart rate,

I didn't read it carefully.

So heart rate difference or something

and it said 20 beats per minute or whatever,

and first thing I was like,

"My heart was beating that slow?"

But no, it was the difference

between the high and the low,

I don't know, something weird.

It's really well laid out, really organized,

there's a lot information there,

a lot of things that you can do.
