Oura Ring 5 Slims Down and Elevates Health Tracking, But Hits a Higher Price

The Oura Ring 5 is a sleeker successor to Ring 4, 40% smaller and weighing 2–2.69 g, with upgraded sensors (fewer optical paths, stronger LEDs, larger photodiode) delivering about 12% better overnight HRV and up to 19% better HR during workouts. It adds software features like a health radar, blood pressure signal monitoring, GLP-1 medication tracking, and external HR device integration, plus IP68 dust resistance and a 6–9 day battery life. Priced at $399 and with a reduced size range plus a required monthly subscription for advanced features, it may not justify upgrading for all Ring 4 users.

Apple Watch Ultra May Soon Feature Satellite Texting

The next Apple Watch Ultra may feature satellite texting, similar to the iPhone's non-emergency messaging, and could include blood-pressure monitoring by 2025. Apple plans to replace Intel modems with MediaTek components, potentially supporting RedCap 5G for wearables. This move could attract Garmin inReach users seeking fewer devices, with Globalstar likely providing satellite service. However, the blood-pressure feature may not offer specific measurements, only alerts for potential hypertension.

Revolutionary Wearable Patch Continuously Tracks Blood Pressure

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a wearable ultrasound patch that continuously monitors blood pressure noninvasively, offering a potential alternative to traditional cuffs and invasive arterial lines. The soft, stretchy patch adheres to the skin and provides real-time blood pressure readings by tracking changes in blood vessel diameters. Tested on over 100 patients, the device showed results comparable to standard methods, even in varied activities and settings. The team plans further clinical trials and aims to develop a wireless version for long-term use.
