The Oura Ring Gen 3 Heritage is technically a previous generation Oura Ring, but the tech isn't moving so fast that we think you'll necessarily notice. And, right now, it has one of its best prices on Amazon, at just $199. The ring is in a sort of fluctuation of prices this month, bouncing between regular and deal prices, which potentially signals the end of the deal. In any event, this is an excellent way to get an affordable fitness tracker that has a battery that can last all week. The Oura Ring Gen 3 Heritage is down to $199 from $249, a savings of $50. It's also worth noting that its original retail was $299, so this is (in many ways) a savings of $100. Again, this deal could be blinking out of existence at any time, so if you want to make sure to get it, tap the button below. Then, keep reading to see what makes the Heritage special.

The Oura Ring Gen 3 Heritage tracks everything from your heart rate to your sleeping patterns, gives women period tracking insights, has a 5-7 day battery life, and is water-resistant up to 100 meters. This is an unobtrusive piece of tech that lets you, more or less, set it and forget it in everyday life.
