Amazon Prime Day is closing soon, but the Oura Ring 4 deal remains compelling for health-focused users. The smart ring drops to $214 for the Silver model, down from $349, while pricier options at Best Buy offer even deeper savings. This positions Oura competitively against its newer Ring 5 counterpart.

The standout benefit isn't just the hardware discount—it effectively subsidizes the subscription service. Oura Membership runs $6 monthly or $70 annually, and those savings cover roughly two to three years of access. This subscription unlocks full health tracking features including sleep analysis and activity monitoring.

Unlike most wearables, Oura employs a subscription model for premium features, which helps fund ongoing product development. The company's focus on low-key health monitoring appeals to users wanting comprehensive data without bulky devices. FSA/HSA payment options add further value for health-conscious buyers.

Despite the Ring 5's release, Android Central still recommends the Ring 4 at this price point. The combination of significant savings and subsidized membership makes this a rare opportunity where the deal practically pays for itself through included service time.
