We all know that good things come to those who wait, and that is extra true with tech. The Oura Ring 4 has been out for awhile, so now the wait for the Oura Ring 3 to start having more aggressive pricing is over. Today, you can get the ‘Horizon’ (larger and thicker) version of the ring for $249 instead of $349 or the slimmer Heritage version of the ring for $199 instead of $249. Those are respective savings of $100 and $50.

You should know that the deals are going to be slightly different (or nonexistent) depending on the style and color combo you choose, with the silver color appearing to have all of the best deals. Tap the buttons below to buy from Amazon or directly from Oura, and check out your preferred style and color combo to see if your deal matches this offer.

Why you should buy an Oura Ring 3

The third generation Oura Ring is an older product with a lot of history behind it. Our Oura Ring 3 review comes from a person that has worn one for three years. That’s not necessarily wild for a typical consumer, but for a tech reviewer to keep something around that long is noteworthy. And the review highlights many things to love about the ring, including an expansive battery life that puts many of the best smartwatches to shame.

Not that the Oura Ring tries to be a smartwatch that tracks workouts and running goals, rather the Oura Ring strives to provide a low maintenance window into the stats and metrics that make our body tick. This includes things such as heart rate, blood oxygen, temperature, movement, sleep quality, and even has period prediction abilities. But, without a screen, you won’t be constantly bothered about it or feel the need to constantly check in on your stats. You won’t be plagued by the observer effect and, instead, you can just be.

The Oura Ring 3 is still a worthwhile smart device to get today. To quote our Oura Ring 4 vs Oura Ring 3 comparison directly, when discussing if an upgrade is worth it: “Unless you have a few specific issues that the Oura Ring 4 solves, there’s little benefit.” So, go ahead and save on the Oura Ring 3 today. Remember, you can get the thicker Horizon style for as low as $249 (down $100 from $349) or the thinner Heritage style for $199 (down $50 from $249) while this offer lasts. It’s easiest to get the best deal in the silver coloration, but you can play around with other color/style combos and still get good deals. Tap the appropriate button below to buy from Amazon or directly from Oura while this deal still lasts.

YouTube might get its own social network since Shorts obviously wasn’t addictive enough
YouTube's mysterious Tamba project has Instagram written all over it.

To keep up with TikTok's doomscrolling and Instagram Reels, YouTube brought Shorts to keep you swiping. A new discovery suggests the company is experimenting with something called "Tamba," a mysterious project that looks suspiciously like YouTube's answer to Instagram, complete with followers, private messages, and group chats.

The discovery comes from Android Authority, which uncovered references to the project while digging through version 21.44.534 of the YouTube app for Android. The findings suggest Tamba could exist as a standalone app, potentially giving Google an entirely new social platform built around YouTube's existing ecosystem.

Apple opens Siri AI to all developers, allowing more advanced third-party app controls
Developers can now teach Siri AI to handle multiple actions in a single request, bringing more advanced voice controls to iPhone apps.
Siri AI voice change

Apple's latest wave of beta software recently went live for developers, bringing several new features across Safari, iOS, and watchOS. Along with these changes, the company also announced something far more significant for third-party developers: it is finally letting them use Siri AI more deeply, opening up capabilities previously limited to a narrow set of supported actions. The company released a new developer preview that lets apps handle more complex requests, including booking restaurant reservations, checking deliveries, and placing orders. All by simply asking Siri.

Your iPhone’s StandBy mode is getting new clocks, Calendar, and Weather faces with iOS 27.3
A smarter bedside clock is coming in December.
StandBy mode on an iPhone with iOS 17.

StandBy on iPhone has always felt like an underwhelming feature to me. It does turn a charging iPhone into a glanceable display. However, until now, Apple has offered fairly limited customization options. Well, that seems to be changing. 

Apple’s first iOS 27.3 developer beta, released Tuesday, brings the new StandBy features. While they debuted on the iPhone Duo, they’re now available for other iPhones that support StandBy.
