Is Oura actually worth it over a cheaper smart ring?

I want accurate sleep and recovery tracking, 24/7 comfort, a few days of battery, and ideally no subscription. I see tons of generic rings on Amazon but don't trust them. Owners: is Oura's data noticeably better, and has anyone had a no-name ring hold up past 3 months? Does your ring sync reliably with Apple Health (sleep, HRV, heart rate, workouts), or is it flaky or missing data? Which would you pick or avoid?

Best smart device for step tracking?

I’ve been trying to walk more and realized my phone is probably missing a lot of my steps because I don’t always have it on me. I mostly care about accurate steps and something I can wear all day without thinking about it. I don’t really need a million smartwatch features. Battery life matters too because I know I’ll get annoyed if I’m charging it constantly.

You’re all caught up.
