Samsung recently introduced the Galaxy Ring, a new smart ring that challenges the Oura Ring. In response, Oura appears to be developing the Oura Ring 4, as indicated by a recent leak. Two new models (OA11 and OA12) have been submitted for certification, with the OA11 expected to come in sizes 7-13 and a gold design. Unlike the Galaxy Ring’s concave design, the Oura Ring 4 is likely to maintain the flat design of previous models, with potential enhancements to the heart rate sensor for improved accuracy. Details are still speculative, and confirmation from Oura is awaited.
