EVOLV Wireless Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Bluetooth

Only had this a few days but what a difference. I was given a blood pressure monitor home with me last time I went for yearly MOT. That’s what I call it. Bloods and BP etc. I already had a wrist cuff monitor and it works fine. I was told they were no good. I took the one I was given home (which is also available on Amazon Sure sign) I don’t know if these machines are ever calibrated or if they need it but this thing was squeezing my arm until it hurt and left red lines. I’m older now and of course skin is a lot thinner and not as firm as it used to be. Anyway I made it less tight but it just put more air in it was quite painful. I was told to do this twice in the morning and twice at night and register the lowest readings of the 2. The readings ended up all over the place and far too high. It was probably due to the thought of going through the pain each time. I bought this Omron and it’s wonderful. It’s so easy to use and fitting it is a breeze. No pain. Press the button and it gently blows up and gives a reading the cuff is very comfortable and easy to use. I love it and much prefer it. I stopped using the Surgery one on Friday. But continued with the Omron to see if there was any difference. Most readings are normal and under 140/70. Tried the rubbish wrist cuff as well and it’s almost in sync with the Omron. Maybe a difference of 1-2 points. The Suresign can be out by 10. If you’re going to buy one I would suggest the Omron for accuracy…easy fitting…and comfort. When you’re done it has it’s own little storage case to keep it tidied away until next time you need it.

I have used Omron blood pressure monitors for years, they are very reliable and very good. My previous one I have had over 10 years still good at times goes a little faulty . So I decided to get a new machine. This one appealed to me as it as no tube from the monitor that attaches to the arm wrap. Its electronic and connects to your phone with an app. When I first opened the bag it comes in. Initially I thought something was missing, I thought the monitor was missing. This machine does not need a monitor.The reading are on the screen which is on the wrap on your arm. Readings go to your smart phone and there you see the visual readout. This machine only does readings for one person. It works on 2 AAA battery's. I find it very comfortable and easy to use. The readings from your app can be emailed on the excel to your healthcare provider or printed out With this monitor it also comes with 6 months free of premium and after that if you want its £8 a month. The app records your BP on a graph chart. The app is so informative and lots of articles to read. Glad I got this monitor.

5 out of 5 – An excellent, well-designed blood pressure monitor I’ve used several devices from this manufacturer over the years, and as the technology has improved, so has the reassurance it gives me. Being able to link the monitor to my smartphone and have every reading stored automatically is a huge step forward. It means I no longer need to take photos of the screen just to keep a record, and the ability to produce a clear PDF report to share with my doctor is outstanding. For anyone who suffers from white-coat syndrome, or finds themselves having a rushed blood pressure check in the middle of a busy day, this makes a real difference. Having accurate, dependable readings in the calm of your own home helps you understand what’s genuinely going on, and in some cases avoids unnecessary medication. I read a few reviews complaining about how difficult it was to remove the battery cover, and I honestly don’t know what they were talking about. It’s simple to set up, easy to install the app and the batteries, and the whole process took me only a couple of minutes. The cuff is straightforward to fit, very comfortable, and it gives a reliable reading without any fuss. Doing two readings, as recommended, definitely gives a more accurate picture of your blood pressure – and the device handles this perfectly. The option to generate a PDF report whenever you need it, whether after a single day or ahead of a discussion with your doctor, is incredibly useful. It provides a clear, accurate history that removes any doubt or inconsistency and ensures your doctor has exactly the information they need. You might initially think the device is on the expensive side, but it isn’t. It’s excellent value for money, extremely well designed, and I’d happily recommend it. Having such a detailed long-term record of your blood pressure is invaluable when you’re looking after your health. A superb product – very well done to the manufacturer. 5 out of 5.

It works perfectly, will recommend to everyone

Nice piece of tech! Compared to my previous M7 Intelli IT monitor this machine is considerably smaller, lighter and not so cumbersome to use (a must if you need to carry this around with you on a daily basis!) I checked the accuracy of the readings using the M7 on the other arm and the readings were almost identical (+/- 1 point) so I assume the Evolv is no less accurate. What I like most is no air tube or positioning of the sensor on the cuff, just place it your arm and press start, it couldn't be easier. Superficial I know but it also looks smart with it's much simplified screen information. The Omron app is also a bonus for storing your results and tracking trends etc. Originally I was a bit put-off by the purchase price but now I've seen it and used it I think it was well worth it...... excellent purchase.

I really like this monitor, it is easy to use, being a one piece design. No fiddling or mucking about with cables, cords, or other irritants. Simply loosen the cuff, place and slide it up your arm. Wrap somewhat snug and press the start button and it gives you a reading in about 20 seconds. Highly adjustable for different sized arms. I have fairly big male arms, and have no issues using it. If you install the Omron Connect app on your phone, tablet or both you can save readings to the app which can then be shared via Apple Health etc to your GP. I live in the USA but I bought the UK version of this for the added app compatibility with other Omron devices like the Intelli IT 300 Oximeter, Intelli IT Thermometer and the Omron Viva BMI scale so I could easily share my main vital stats on an ongoing basis with my GP. I also have a KardiaMobile 6L I send frequent readings from it to my GP as well. This helps him keep a thorough eye on my information while we try to diagnose an ongoing medical mystery that has been elusive. Things are already paying off as we now know my BP has indeed been higher than expected. Tech truly can save lives, and also help substantially reduce wait times for potentially critical information to be given to the care team. Overall I really like this monitor. It is accurate, looks cool and comes with a quality case. I use a different case so I can keep my monitor, Kardia 6L and oximeter in the same easy to grab case so my critical measurement devices don’t get misplaced. Delivery was surprisingly fast considering it was coming from the UK to the USA west coast. It arrived in good shape, no sizeable box damage.

Do not pay attention to any negative reviews of this product, I imagine these people are simply universally challenged when using tech. This HR monitor is excellent. Having used QardioArm for 5 years, thinking they were the best product on the market, I am now enlightened... Both QardioArm devices I owned broke after 2.5 years, hence this purchase. It has a 5 year warranty, so straightaway I'm covered better than I was. The device looks slick, it cuffs around your arm naturally with minimal manual adjustment needed. You can take a reading then and there without a smartphone and the results are displayed on the device. This is much more convenient than Qardioarm which needs a phone to activate it. It has a carry case which is also nice. The device paired with my phone app easily and it gives you a 6 months premium membership with extra features for free during this period, as well as a subscription to another app for checking heart fibulation. Very good value for money. It appears much more accurate than my other devices and I am very, very pleased with the product, especially having peace of mind with the 5 year warranty.

Excellent accurate product very easy to use.
