Amazon and Oura are competing for the lowest price yet for my favorite Oura ring, the Gen3
There’s no shortage of fitness trackers on the market, and while wristwatches like Fitbit still dominate that field, ring-shaped fitness trackers are gaining popularity. If you’d rather go that route, one of our favorite fitness trackers is the Oura Ring Gen3. Oura currently has it on offer up to $200 off as part of the Black Friday sale. And not to be outdone, Amazon also offers the Oura Ring Gen3 for up to $100 off. While there is a more recent Oura Ring, the Gen4, with more advanced features, this previous generation version would still make a fantastic Christmas gift.
The exact retail price varies by color and style, but you can save up to $200 right now, making it a great time to get a head start on your holiday shopping. The biggest savings right now are on the rose gold option, which originally cost $549. It’s completely at the moment down to just $349 at Oura. You can also get the same ring in rose gold $349 at Amazon.
