Measuring
Type
Type	Upper arm	Upper arm
Irregular heartbeat detection
Irregular heartbeat detection	Yes	Yes
AFib detection or ECG
AFib detection or ECG	No	No
Method
Method	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation. Exact UK item 60493, EAN 4211125604936; manual model BM 23, technical type BM 25. Range tile and SEO title use BM 25, but active product heading, photos, datasheet and instructions identify BM 23. First-sale date unresolved	Oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation. One automatic measurement started with ON/OFF button; no MAM triple-mode selector in exact guide. Actual first retail sale unresolved
Accuracy
Accuracy	Manual display accuracy ±3 mmHg for systolic and diastolic pressure and ±5% for pulse; systolic range 50–280 mmHg, diastolic 30–200 mmHg and pulse 40–199 beats/minute. Maximum cuff pressure 300 mmHg is separate	Exact March 2023 guide gives blood pressure 20–280 mmHg and pulse 40–200 bpm; current global support instead lists systolic 60–255 and diastolic 40–200 mmHg. Static pressure accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5%; cuff-pressure display 0–299 mmHg is separate
Clinical validation
Clinical validation	Current manual claims clinical testing to ISO 81060-2. Medaval lists a Stride BP derivative recommendation based on equivalence to BM 28 via Globalcare GCE603, but says unpublished equivalence results cannot be verified to MDR requirements. Independently established exact-device validation remains unresolved; headline flag omitted	Exact guide claims shared measurement technology with BP 3BTO-A tested under BIHS protocol. Independent exact BP 3AG1 validation was not recovered in the bounded registry search, so headline validation is omitted. Broad special-population wording in maker guide is not promoted to independently established exact-model validation
Features
Features	Irregular-heartbeat warning, coloured classification scale, electronic cuff-position check, automatic switch-off and battery indicator. No ECG, dedicated AFib screening, resting indicator or voice output	Generic irregular-heartbeat indication, not AFib-specific screening or ECG recording. Low-battery warning, pulse indicator and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute. No date/time controls or automatic averaging mode in exact guide
Cuff
Cuff fits
Cuff fits	22–42 cm	–
Cuff
Cuff	Supplied universal cuff for 22–42 cm upper-arm circumference, replacement item 110.031; conventional hook-and-loop cuff rather than easyClip or easyLock	Supplied cuff size not established in recovered global support and guide. Optional S 17–22, M 22–32, M-L 22–42 and L 32–42 cm cuffs and optional pre-shaped cuffs listed; these are not all supplied. Optional small cuff needs the connector from original supplied cuff
Connections and memory

Bluetooth and app
Bluetooth and app	No	No
Memory
Memory	No stored reading history, user profiles, date/time or calculated averages established by the product table or complete device operation section. Manual's isolated statement about resetting date/time and retaining saved measurements conflicts with those sections; not treated as an implemented feature	One history of the last 30 readings, with no user selector or timestamps. First recall displays count then latest reading; repeated memory presses show earlier values. Oldest overwritten when full. Complete history can be cleared, individual saved values cannot; newly displayed reading can be excluded
App
App	No Bluetooth connection from the monitor. Scan & Save captures the display with a smartphone camera into beurer HealthManager Pro rather than automatically transmitting measurements	No Bluetooth, USB socket or PC-transfer function in exact guide and labelled controls
Power
Power	Four 1.5 V LR03 AAA batteries included; manual approximately 300 measurements depending on blood pressure and inflation pressure. USB-C input supports optional 5 V DC / 1 A mains operation, not battery charging or a demonstrated data connection. Manual lists EU adapter 072.78 and UK adapter 072.79; remove batteries for mains operation	Four 1.5 V AA alkaline cells; approximately 920 measurements with new batteries. Optional Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA adapter stops battery-current use while connected. NiMH cells supported with external charging, not charged inside monitor
Design
Display details
Display details	Non-illuminated LCD with black digits, maker 4.4 × 5.3 cm; physical START/STOP button. Manual IP21	LCD with systolic, diastolic, pulse, irregular-heartbeat, battery and stored-value indications. ON/OFF and memory buttons, cuff and DC sockets. IP20
Size
Size	120 × 90 × 40 mm (L × W × H). Manual and datasheet approximately 318 g with cuff and without batteries; current product table's 362 g excluding packaging has unspecified weighing conditions	140 × 120 × 70 mm; 400 g including batteries in exact guide and global maker support
In the box
In the box	Monitor, universal upper-arm cuff, four AAA batteries and instructions according to the datasheet and manual. Product page additionally lists a blood pressure record; mains adapter sold separately	Exact global supplied-accessory list not recovered; optional cuff sizes and mains adapter are not treated as bundled. Guide filename contains 3AG1-30 and W identifiers while its exact cover and controls identify BP 3AG1; no cosmetic duplicate record created
