I appreciate the section talking about customer support and them turning off their Instagram comments. Feels like a nice bit of extra info we don't normally get.
So basically the ring is a scam… horrible customer service, turning off comments, doesnt connect to health apps, scuffs like crazy, app is not available outside the US AND $269. Absolute garbage and more e waste.
I consider the oura scammy too. They gave you one month of subscription before, now they give 6 months. I sincerely believe the one month is exactly because that's the time you can send online bought devices back for a full refund. So you will only realize you have to have an expensive subscription after you can't send it back... And the base price is already super expensive. If they make an android app, they can take on the oura's market for sure.
These don't make sense. A small metal ring on a finger shouldn't be able to accurately determine sleep patterns and heart rate. There's a reason watches make sense because they are on the wrist where your pulse is. If you've been to a doctor they can get pulse rates from your finger but it's usually your index finger with a bulky clasp that goes over your entire finger applying pressure.
@@nylohro4091There is less movement and hair on your finger. The oura ring has different sensors all around the circumference of your finger. A watch only the top
Fun fact about "Water Resistance": They assume you're in COLD water, so if you're in a situation with warm/hot water (washing dishes, showers, hot-tubs, etc.) then that water resistance is going to fail faster and more reliably.
@@cthecheese1620 No problem, I learned this lesson the hard way when my Fitbit Versa (which is meant to be water resistant) suddenly had its screen pop off while washing the dishes.
If you don't mind the smart part of a smart watch you could get a Garmin that will give you plenty of health and fitness tracking with big battery life.
That's what I settled on. Gives me all the fitness tracking I could want, notifies me of texts, can control my phone's music, and most importantly I only need to charge it once a month so you can actually use the sleep and HRV tracking.
I almost tried a Garmin but went with Fossil hybrid instead.. that only lasted about 18months though until the screen was toast (common issue) and now have a Withings Scanwatch Now.. I could write a very long list of all the things I dislike about it's design/software/accuracy.. but.. it's very pretty And I get 3-4 weeks on a charge
Yeah, same price, you get a watch instead of a ring, battery life of 7+ days. water resistant, free app, music player built in on some models and a kick ass waranty. they replaced my defect 42mm garmin epix 2 with a 47mm garmin epix pro, no questions asked. + if you want to go cycling, you want to manage your weight, you want to track your shots while out golfing garmin has basically a whole range of products for tons of sports that all work together. great ecosystem. I don't get why you would pay 300+ for a ring and then pay an extra monthly fee to get less...
Commenting so more people see this. I have a Garmin Venu 2. Styled like a regular smart watch, but with good batteri life and health and fitness trackning. It has less smart features than a Apple wathc, but it has the one I care about such as notifications, Google Pay, and Spotify player. Recently got a chest strap accessori to get rock solid heartrate tracking on my runs.
I like how she feels bad about saying the ring isn't good so she tries to say it in a nice way, but still stands by the fact she would not recommend it.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 nothing WAS wrong with it but then they repealed roe v wade and now the data that those apps collected is dangerous because it can be used to track down women that maybe have had done what they deem illegal.
I wonder, if it's for a woman, why the app would ask you what you identify as. I mean, if you are getting this for personal use I'd assume you either are a woman or identify as one.
@@jabbahut755 god i hate micro usb. i don't know if it's just me but the connector has so little resistance the cable gets unplugged all the time and it's so annoying.

I charge my Garmin once every 11 days. Edit: This is not a complaint. I walk a lot and use the GPS feature. The screen is always on (liquid crystal). The battery life has been great so far (1 year use).
I have had 2 or 3 Garmin smartwatches, and the battery life was always great until they passed the 1 year mark… then they inexplicably went from a week or more to MAYBE a day… super weird… I’ve had my withings scan watch for a couple years now and it’s still going strong… though I do miss some of the Garmin’s features
@@SeanPorterPDX Thank you for introducing the Withings ScanWatch to me. I have been looking for something like it for a while but never had good luck when searching.
Why exactly did they deposit titanium on zirconium again? Because it sells well to throw those words around? I mean, both are cool metals, but they seem rather unnecessary for a smart ring.
My watch's bezel has a titanium PVD coating, it is super durable, at least in my case. I have had my watch for a couple years now, and no scratches. And I've forgotten to take it off to work on cars before.
Oura was a lot better when they didn't ask for a subscription to show basic features. Now I'm using Garmin Fenix and I LOVE them. 10 days of battery life, no subscription - batteries included, and so many features for people who bike, hike, ski, etc.
Didnt they also not give Linus sponsor money because he mispronounced the name? Tbh any company that is so up their own arse they withhold payment money because there name was mispronounced isnt a company i would like to support.
Sarah is basically a smile machine... I just watched a 20min video on a women's health ring just because I knew she'd make me smile...mission accomplished
Don't be a conspiracy nut. Being US only almost certainly has nothing to do with menstrual tracking in particular, but rather has to do with certifications and regulatory approval for the device and app that they simply didn't bother doing in any other country. That, or they just didn't want to sell it in Canadian dollars or something - the app store doesn't care why the developer region-locked the app, and the developer doesn't control the nature of that lock. As for reporting to a government agency, no that's not realistic either. That isn't to say that certain state laws couldn't enable a court to subpoena records from this company - which is why a lot of people stopped using period tracking apps in the US - but the chances that the company is willingly and proactively selling that data to the government? Not likely at all.
@@Lord_zeel "but the chances that the company is willingly and proactively selling that data to the government", ah yes, cos they need to sell *directly* to the government for the government to acquire it. Also with how companies dont care about data privacy i wouldnt be surprised if they did sell directly to the government.

The "half-baked, but technically and legally cleared" nature of this consumer electronic, along with the artificial social media presence and the bare minimum US-only distribution kinda screams "money laundry" to me
13:25 Can we please normalize the "looking at the advertising" that the company does ? That was absolutely crucial information that no one else is going to tell you.
can definitely recommend a withings watch, I've had two over the last 6 years and barely had a problem with them (only got a new one cause I liked the design better). Though my battery life has gone down, it's more like a week now but it charges really quickly and gives you a headsup well in advance

They are quite huge for women, but most Garmin watches last 21 days if you wear it 24/7 with heart rate monitor on. Mine gets 30 day or so because when i take it off i put it in battery saver. The watch also uses reflective light MIP display for the screen so 99.9% of the time im not using my backlight. Just ambient light reflected off the screen. Full color screen too. Newer models use AMOLED and still get 16 days battery.
If you're in or moving to a state (since it's US only at this time, but if they go global, also country) where abortion is illegal or very restricted, please save yourself the trouble and avoid or discontinue using the menstrual tracking functionality of this device, or any other app that does that. It's disgusting that has to be said, but here we are. Be safe.
I have always loved how the whoop solves the charging problem. It has a portable wireless charger that attaches to the watch its self. Such a smart way to make sure you never have to take off your watch.
love seeing Sarah in videos and love the videos :D would love to see you guys review a garmin watch like the: Garmin epix pro gen 2 Garmin instinct 2 (this one has really good battery life can last forever if you go outside for more than 2 hours a day) Garmin fennix 7pro you guys allways criticise smart watches for only having a day battery life ect and every time i think of the Garmin watch ive got and the amazing battery life you guys may want to cover garmin watches or do something with them

Same here. I'm always forgetting my Galaxy watch at home because its charger is in a different part of the house from where I leave my keys and wallet because I don't have an outlet near the door. If I put it on in the morning before work and wear it until it dies, it dies before I go to sleep the next night. So I either have to focus on it and when to charge it and when to put it back on or I miss nights of sleep data or big chucks of the day so the data I do get from it is mostly useless. Devices that track health and sleep data really need to have at least 6 days of battery life to have the best chance of logging accurate and helpful data.
@@stevecole90099 I've been considering getting an extension cord just so I can have the charger for my Garmin watch right by the door, because it's so inconvenient to charge it
Wait, the app asks you "how you Identify". I'm open on what people want to be, or feel. But on a health based situation like this, shouldn't this be the Biological Gender, due to body differences? I mean if you select, you want to select your cycles, and then pick "Male", isn't that like counterin that question? And your Body-Metabolism is completely different if you are Male/Female. And yes, probably after you went through transistion, whatsoever, then things are bit different, but You are still biologically one of those two options.
I literally just use a Fitbit Versa 4, it does steps, sleep, 24/7 heart rate, etc. and I only have to charge it once a week, I feel like no big tech RUclipsrs talk about them. They’re cheaper, have better battery life, and do all the basics that you need. And you still get notifications if you want them
Yeah I use a Sense that I got dirt cheap back when it was being replaced by the Sense 2. Paid something like $175 for it, and it does everything I need. Could do a bit better with floor tracking as I'm *pretty sure* I don't go up 30-45 flights of stairs a day like it claims (maybe 10-15 at most), but other than that the sleep tracking is accurate, the smartwatch features are good enough, and the health data is meaningful without being overly complicated.
Sarah was a great host for this, as someone who wears rings and can speak to the woman's health portion of the product (even if she didn't care for this implementation at all). She clearly struggled with the negative recommendation at the end and should probably have been even more negative, but she did say she didn't recommend it and stated some good reasons for it.
3:00 important note: titanium can get scratched when painted. That's why premium Eyeglasses does not have painting on. So that's why also iPhone 15 pro is scratchable. The issue is not titanium. Titanium is very light and resistant, but the coating is not.
@@jonhansson5199 I just like her attitude and straight forward ness. Riley... He seems a little egotistical now... It's harder for me to watch him and James
USB-C is required by EU law, so it’s just easier to manufacture to fit that. Also, your watch should take a relatively short time to charge. I wear it while sleeping for sleep tracking and charge it during my morning routine
Without trying to defend it too much, but to be fair, activity tracking usually becomes better, the longer you wear the device, as it learns and adapts to your movements. Especially when you adjust manually here and there.
Yeah this rings are not for everyone. The reason is blood flow in fingers and palms' different reaction to different arm positions. Wrist devices are more accurate for health monitoring.
Blood oxygen changes in seconds based on your breathing. The fact it said 95% and then a short time later said 100% is super normal. A rainy below 95% doesn't necessarily mean you need to see a doctor, unless it's always that low, especially if you're breathing deeply and the number isn't going up.
Are we sure we're pronouncing the brand correctly? Don't need another bitching out from a brand that isn't willing to take the L based on Ee-vee or Aye-vee or Eh-vee
Your rings are so pretty! And.. do people take their rings off at night? I get to take it off for certain job applications.. but.. ah. Whatever. Sarah Butt! You are an awesome person and I hope you post more videos in the future!

Wow Sarah in glasses might be better than no glasses! Great look.
3:29 "swimming" with a weak 1m water resistance? I wouldn't even trust it to resist to wash the dishes...
That is very disappointing for a ring.
This was very interesting to watch! Would love to see Sarah more often as a host & it was quite interesting to see her perspective on the product.
Sarah! I missed you!
Finaly a new vid with sarah 😊
“I cannot be asked to charge a device and remember to wear it” lol 😂
Same here. I'm always forgetting my Galaxy watch at home because its charger is in a different part of the house from where I leave my keys and wallet because I don't have an outlet near the door. If I put it on in the morning before work and wear it until it dies, it dies before I go to sleep the next night. So I either have to focus on it and when to charge it and when to put it back on or I miss nights of sleep data or big chucks of the day so the data I do get from it is mostly useless. Devices that track health and sleep data really need to have at least 6 days of battery life to have the best chance of logging accurate and helpful data.
@@stevecole90099 I've been considering getting an extension cord just so I can have the charger for my Garmin watch right by the door, because it's so inconvenient to charge it
This. I loved the concept of the vital bracelet but I kept forgetting it at home
I don’t wear the Apple Watch anymore either, stupid charging it all the time. Bleh
Garmin watches offer around a week or more of battery life, many style options (including analog hands in some models), and no monthly fees.
"made specifically with women's health in mind"
3 minutes later: "you can wear it while washing the dishes" 🤦♂️😆
Glasses Sarah 😍
14:20 The most truthful sentence of the whole video.
Good to see Sarah on camera again!
Wait, the app asks you "how you Identify". I'm open on what people want to be, or feel. But on a health based situation like this, shouldn't this be the Biological Gender, due to body differences? I mean if you select, you want to select your cycles, and then pick "Male", isn't that like counterin that question? And your Body-Metabolism is completely different if you are Male/Female.
And yes, probably after you went through transistion, whatsoever, then things are bit different, but You are still biologically one of those two options.
Given the phrasing used, it would suggest it's more likely to be just used for how the app refers to you, etc, as opposed to the things you mention.
Hormone replacement therapy
I literally just use a Fitbit Versa 4, it does steps, sleep, 24/7 heart rate, etc. and I only have to charge it once a week, I feel like no big tech RUclipsrs talk about them. They’re cheaper, have better battery life, and do all the basics that you need. And you still get notifications if you want them
Yeah I use a Sense that I got dirt cheap back when it was being replaced by the Sense 2. Paid something like $175 for it, and it does everything I need. Could do a bit better with floor tracking as I'm *pretty sure* I don't go up 30-45 flights of stairs a day like it claims (maybe 10-15 at most), but other than that the sleep tracking is accurate, the smartwatch features are good enough, and the health data is meaningful without being overly complicated.
@@NickCharlesexactly!
Sarah! ❤
The title is offensive, what about trans and non binary women. Also I'm a lesbian man. So it's really offensive.
Sarah was a great host for this, as someone who wears rings and can speak to the woman's health portion of the product (even if she didn't care for this implementation at all). She clearly struggled with the negative recommendation at the end and should probably have been even more negative, but she did say she didn't recommend it and stated some good reasons for it.
buy your own corporate surveillance equipment
That's what your phone is for 🤣
@@justinbeamon6624So is the Ring it's a different company selling your data and tracking you so instead of 1 it's 2 🎉
3:00 important note: titanium can get scratched when painted.
That's why premium Eyeglasses does not have painting on.
So that's why also iPhone 15 pro is scratchable.
The issue is not titanium. Titanium is very light and resistant, but the coating is not.
BUYERS BEWARE! The app exists only for iOS and only for US users. Disgusting!
have you watched video?
@@kahtyman7293 It's better to highlight this issue just in case
Maybe not a short circuit video, but I'd love a comparison/roundup of a bunch of different wearables!
Life needs a better naming scheme.
I never would have clicked on this content, but then I see Sarah and I gotta click
Need more vids by her
I fear she has too much actual work to do to host that much 😅
@@jonhansson5199 I just like her attitude and straight forward ness. Riley... He seems a little egotistical now... It's harder for me to watch him and James
USB-C is required by EU law, so it’s just easier to manufacture to fit that.
Also, your watch should take a relatively short time to charge. I wear it while sleeping for sleep tracking and charge it during my morning routine
Ring for women's health, asks you how you identify - classic
the left eats itself
Not all those who menstruate are women...
@@United_Kangaroo1992 literally factually incorrect
Damn Sarah these glasses really compliment you!
How about this: Every time Sarah says but(t), we drink.
*Hiccup*
What did you just call me?
Without trying to defend it too much, but to be fair, activity tracking usually becomes better, the longer you wear the device, as it learns and adapts to your movements. Especially when you adjust manually here and there.
Samsung Ring gonna be great hopfully
Yeah this rings are not for everyone. The reason is blood flow in fingers and palms' different reaction to different arm positions. Wrist devices are more accurate for health monitoring.
I’m glad that we’re seeing more Sara screen time on short circuit
Settings: "Track your menstrual cycle?" Yes/No ,next question "How do you identify yourself?" Male/Female/Other. 🤔
Blood oxygen changes in seconds based on your breathing. The fact it said 95% and then a short time later said 100% is super normal. A rainy below 95% doesn't necessarily mean you need to see a doctor, unless it's always that low, especially if you're breathing deeply and the number isn't going up.
Are we sure we're pronouncing the brand correctly? Don't need another bitching out from a brand that isn't willing to take the L based on Ee-vee or Aye-vee or Eh-vee
Your rings are so pretty! And.. do people take their rings off at night? I get to take it off for certain job applications.. but.. ah. Whatever. Sarah Butt! You are an awesome person and I hope you post more videos in the future!
