Oura Ring Gen 3 Is No Longer Sold: What That Means If You Own One
Oura has retired the Gen 3. Its own support site states that “the Gen3 ring and charger are no longer available for purchase”, and the lineup has moved on to the Ring 4 and beyond. If you own one it still works — but there are things you should know.
★ Status as of 26 August 2026
- Discontinued — ring and charger both withdrawn
- Superseded by Oura Ring 4 (from $349) and a later generation
- Oura Membership $5.99/month or $69.99/year — still required for full features
- Battery: non-replaceable, per Oura
- Water resistance: 100 m claimed; not for scuba or over 12 hours submerged
The discontinuation, and the price correction
This page previously listed $299. That was the Gen 3 Heritage launch price — the Horizon launched at $349 — and it is no longer a price you can pay Oura, because the product is not sold.
Anything for sale now is third-party stock or second-hand, on a device whose battery cannot be replaced.
What Oura publishes about the hardware
- Water-resistant to 100 m (about 330 ft)
- Battery life: up to seven days on a full charge, per Oura
- Charge time: 20–80 minutes depending on level
- Onboard storage: up to seven days of data before syncing
- Safe operating temperature: −10 to 52°C (14 to 125°F)
- Titanium with PVD coating (Gold, Silver, Rose Gold, Brushed Titanium) or DLC coating (Black, Stealth); non-allergenic, BPA-free inner surface
- Sensors: green, red and infrared LEDs, NTC temperature sensor, accelerometers
Specs we could not confirm
Oura has removed the Gen 3 product pages, so weight, width, thickness and the size range are no longer published by the manufacturer. Independent coverage cites 4–6 g, 7.9 mm wide, 2.55 mm thick and sizes 6–13 — we are attributing that rather than stating it as fact, because we could not read it from Oura. Warranty terms are likewise no longer published.
The subscription still applies
The ring alone is not a complete product. Full features require the Oura app and a paid membership at $5.99 a month or $69.99 a year. That cost does not disappear because the hardware was discontinued.
The non-replaceable battery
Oura describes the battery as rechargeable and non-replaceable. On a discontinued device that is the number that matters most: a lithium-polymer cell in daily charge cycles has a finite life, and when it ends, so does the ring. Weigh that before buying one second-hand.
Oura also publishes a California Proposition 65 warning for the product.
