Oura Ring vs Fenix5x in terms of sleep tracking monitor

So like the title says, does it worth to buy oura ring for sleep tracking monitor if you already have a fenix5x which can do same things like the ring ?
  • I think you answered your own question there, if it does the same thing, then unless you simply have too much money, and aren't near Vegas, then why would it be worth it?
  • Garmin
    sleep metrics are only good for auto detect, not for REM or deep sleep. OURA does a superb job of capturing these metrics and, in my opinion, is worth the cost for accuracy and "truth in advertising".
  • The thing is the Garmin watches sleep function struggles to read deep and REM sleep (especially REM) and can over shoot your wake up and time you fell asleep. Deep sleep is the most important I think so you won’t be getting accurate information more of a ballpark I guess. And you won’t be able to understand your own sleep cycle bc the REM is a bit finicky. If you are really serious about monitoring your sleep I would invest in the ring. I’m an average sleeper so I don’t rlly need it but my friend has a lot of sleep problems and they’re going to get one, so it depends on you. Hope that helps you choose :)
