Add The New York Post on Google Oura, you ready to hear this?

By now, most savvy shoppers have already seen that the viral Oura Ring 4 hit its lowest price ever during Amazon Prime Day 2026.

The popular fitness tracker — now marked down as low as $214 on Amazon, likely due to the launch of the Oura Ring 5 featuring a slimmer profile — is often considered the gold standard of smart rings, praised for its sleek design, long battery life and intuitive app for 24/7 health tracking.

I personally swear by mine, and so do thousands of other fitness enthusiasts. However, it’s not the only brand that is catching attention in the increasingly crowded wearable market.

Some shoppers are turning to more budget-friendly smart rings to get similar core health metrics without the price tag. One standout model is the Milavan Smart Ring, which is also on sale for Prime Day at under $45.

The limited 26%-off deal wraps up tomorrow, leaving just a little time to take advantage of savings.

Milavan Smart offers features similar to the Oura Ring; however, it doesn’t require an app subscription, and users describe it as a serious, no-frills alternative.

Amazon “I love this ring,” claimed one reviewer. “It’s such a cheap alternative to the Oura ring and tracks all the same stuff!”

Many other users also emphasize that the Milavan Smart Ring still tracks a range of key metrics, including activity, calories burned, speed, heart rate, sleep — even REM cycles. It also features a slim 2mm profile and a smooth inner surface, and boasts up to 5 days of battery life

“Easy to set up and use,” another user raved. “The app is simple to use and connect the ring. Very durable, even when I’m clumsy and accidentally hit it on things. Waterproof and fully functional all day.”

The ring is on sale in all four colors, comes with a charger and requires no subscription fees.

BOYACARE offers many of the same features as pricer brands — including heart rate, HRV, temperature and menstrual cycle tracking. These rings also monitor sleep stages and provide detailed monthly reports.

This mega-discounted smartwatch offers a 1.83-inch HD display, Bluetooth calling, and built-in Alexa. With 120+ sport modes, heart rate tracking, and IP68 waterproofing, it’s a solid budget-friendly pick.

The popular Oura Ring 4 is the sleek smart ring everyone’s wearing to track sleep, recovery and stress without the bulk of a smartwatch — it’s loved by our writers and thousands of other reviewers.
