You can even request blood panels through the app.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"paywall\">New Colors and Carry Solutions<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-fkZDUs kHRAYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eEeytc eRSvCP asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-zEXFr koTknX responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gzmcOU BaseText-eqOrNE CaptionCredit-eowWKH deqABF kpqIso kpuElq caption__credit\">Courtesy of Oura<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Oura rings are almost instantly recognizable today\u2014I can spot that brushed silver or rose gold finish anywhere. I even know people who wear Oura rings as their wedding rings. (I\u2019m not quite there yet.) If your Oura ring is not only a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/gallery\/best-fitness-tracker\/\">fitness tracker<\/a> but a fashion accessory, the new Ceramic Collection will likely appeal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The ceramic rings come in four colors: Midnight, Petal, Tide, and Cloud. While the sensors and the metrics they collect are the same as those of the Oura Ring 4, it\u2019s made from high-performance zirconia ceramic. The material is durable, but it will show scuffs, which you can buff out with the included polishing pad. It\u2019s a tad thicker than the original Ring 4, which touted slimness as one of its biggest upgrades\u2014the metal Oura Ring 4 is 2.88-mm thick, while the ceramic is 3.51 mm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">For the first time, the app also supports multiple rings, meaning you can swap your ring depending on your mood or outfit. This feature is available for iPhone users today, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/gallery\/best-android-phones\/\">Android phone<\/a> owners will have to wait until October 20.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">I have mentioned in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/samsung-galaxy-ring\/\">other smart ring reviews<\/a> that I appreciate having a closed charging case. I\u2019m far from the only person who has accidentally knocked an Oura ring off its charging dock while it\u2019s sitting on a bedside table or desk. Now Oura has its own palm-sized charging case, which can charge the ring in 90 minutes and has enough battery to recharge the ring up to five times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/oura-ceramic-collection-and-charging-case\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s a good time to be Oura, the world\u2019s most prominent smart ring company.
