    Another fraudster on the way

    99 bucks to measure BP? It will increase blood pressure on some people for sure

  3. @joycepinto8769 on September 22, 2025 at 12:19 am

    Even the electronic arm cuff based bp meters are not reliable especially when it comes to people with heart disease. I have seen wild readings in hypertension patients. How reliable is this one?

    Ha they didn’t even have a real BP cuff just to test it against 🤣🤣

  5. @stevenw4334 on September 22, 2025 at 12:20 am

    last post 2 yrs ago and nothing lol anyone know where i can get one?

  6. @DellaBaker-xk3dn on September 22, 2025 at 12:23 am

    How do you know when it is up down

  7. @tlindsey1977 on September 22, 2025 at 12:26 am

    Please come out with this asap. The way blood pressure is checked is so old and outdated.

  8. @DifferentSaturner on September 22, 2025 at 12:26 am

    Good news!
    I need one.

  9. @Health_1_Wealth on September 22, 2025 at 12:27 am

    Blood Pressure is measured with the help of pulse so any thing that measure pulse can measure BP depending on technology used, Watches whatever its cost cannot measure accurate O2 as accurate by $10 pulse oximeter any doubt try on senior.

    Is there a device like this the public can actually get hold of now?

    I need it. I have a panic response to cuff inflation. I don’t know to what extent this explains my awful BP values but it seems to be a problem.

  11. @fleipeg on September 22, 2025 at 12:28 am

    We need to see a side-by-side comparison test with an arm cuff tester to see how accurate it is; I’m surprised the company didn’t have a arm cuff tester at the CES show to begin with; I’m also surprised that the CNET team didn’t insist on a side-by-side comparison prior to airing this video. Something tells me the device may still need some work. Thank you

    It doesn’t exist for a reason. It’s EXTREMELY inaccurate to take BP on a finger. Even the wrist is considered subpar but done for convenience in certain settings. And the more circulatory issues a person has, the more likely it is to fail. Which is kind of defeating the purpose.

  13. @bigmike454 on September 22, 2025 at 12:30 am

    poor perfusion in the fingers will make this thing even more inaccurate. also wrist bp monitors are crap

  14. @yuxk on September 22, 2025 at 12:34 am

    Not for sale and not-FDA approved. So, what’s the ruckus?

    Blood pressure measurement is so incredibly outdated and painful so this is groundbreaking. Can’t wait for it to be released.

    When it comes to Blood Pressure, a crucial aspect of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, herbal medications can be beneficial complements to a holistic approach. Natural substances used in herbal remedies have been used for years to enhance health and physical equilibrium. For blood pressure, certain herbal medications from Planet Ayurveda are effective.

  18. @adrianjamesNEWS on September 22, 2025 at 12:39 am

    I feel basic marketing strategy would be for the company to have a walk-up blood pressure machine like at a CVS there in the booth to compare readings. Since they didn’t, I assume their product is a lot less accurate than they want to admit.

  19. @nattobaby on September 22, 2025 at 12:39 am

    i have hypertension, i aint risking my life for something thats innacurate. but i hope they keep developing technologies like this

  20. @Sciesdraspsp on September 22, 2025 at 12:40 am

    Marketing scam to entice diabetics and 30 plus age group. More victims more profits.

  23. @Kongolox on September 22, 2025 at 12:51 am

    it would have been nice to check against an actual FDA-approved BP device before posting the video. :/

    Pointless.

  24. @UC04Sv45_GRW-kxiwrVXWG1w on September 22, 2025 at 12:58 am

    More like BS Monitor

  25. @DwightBoyBoogie22 on September 22, 2025 at 1:03 am

    I wonder if it has any issues with light refraction through darker colored skin. It has been shown that pulse oximeters are less accurate with darker pigmentation due to the light refraction technology.

  26. @vishalvora1982 on September 22, 2025 at 1:06 am

    Can’t wait for this feature to come to Apple watch

  27. @MrThomasAnderson7892 on September 22, 2025 at 1:08 am

    Why it wasn’t compared with a cuff monitor? It would have shown finger BP does not work and ruined the video, that is why.

  28. @GeektusMaximus on September 22, 2025 at 1:13 am

    I almost bought one of those all in one arm cuffs built into a single unit, but they are not that accurate. Then this toy arrives.

  29. @TheMoises1213 on September 22, 2025 at 1:13 am

    I LOVE this. I’ve always wanted something to show PRESSURE not heartbeat like on the Apple Watch.
