A Reddit user posted what appears to be an internal Oura document that pins the Ring 5’s release to May 28, when pre‑orders will open, and shipping to begin on June 4. The file includes a photo of the ring and its charging case that match the March render leaks, confirming the redesign after months of speculation.

The new model is slimmer and reportedly more comfortable than its predecessor, yet it retains the Ring 4’s health tracking suite and subscription model. Sensor hardware remains unchanged; Oura says it will fine‑tune firmware to pull more accurate data while cutting power draw. The accompanying case can recharge the ring up to four times before needing a wall outlet.

Without a price tag, consumers will have to wait for Oura’s official announcement next week, but the confirmed timeline pressures competitors in the sleep‑tracking wearables market. Early adopters can lock in units on May 28, and shipments start a week later, giving Oura a narrow window to capitalize on hype generated by the leaked renders.

Analysts note that Oura’s focus on incremental sensor improvements rather than a hardware overhaul suggests a strategy to extend the platform’s lifespan while keeping manufacturing costs low. If the four‑charge case delivers the promised runtime, users could expect a week‑long battery life, aligning the Ring 5 with rival smart rings that emphasize convenience over raw specs.
