Basically, the device does what it mac...

Basically, the device does what it is supposed to do (measure blood pressure). :D
And it does it very simply, well and efficiently.

The cuff is 1-2cm too small for my upper arm. With the orderable larger cuff a solvable
problem (I have not ordered at Galaxus because I have not found it in the offer).

As for both cuffs, I think they are too wide for most upper arms. The normal and the XL cuffs are both so wide that there is not enough space between the armpit and the elbow. You should be 2cm away from the elbow, which is impossible with these cuffs.

In my opinion, the manual is a bit too short. The transmission via Bluetooth is not explained enough to me. And the associated app is definitely not yet fully developed. For example, it is annoying that it wants to switch on NFC every time it is used, even though the BM85 does not have NFC.

I find it very positive that no batteries are used but an internal battery which is charged via USB. If all devices worked like this, it would massively reduce the number of chargers in the household.

The cuff holder and transport bag are additional gimmicks that I like.

  • Rechargeable battery (charge via USB cable with separate USB power supply)
  • Ease of use
