Measuring
Type
Type	Upper arm	Upper arm
Irregular heartbeat detection
Irregular heartbeat detection	Yes	No
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	Fully manual auscultatory upper-arm measurement using a separate stethoscope and aneroid pressure gauge. Hand inflation and screw-controlled deflation; systolic and diastolic readings are read by the operator. Actual first retail date 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	July 2021 exact guide gives 0–300 mmHg range and 2 mmHg scale divisions. Static accuracy within ±3 mmHg at 18–33°C and ±6 mmHg at 34–46°C; hysteresis error 0–4 mmHg and air leakage under ±4 mmHg/min. Maker recommends an accuracy test every two years or after mechanical impact
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 Medaval lists a Stride BP derivative recommendation based on equivalence to BM 28 via Globalcare GCE603, but says unpublished equivalence results cannot be verified to MDR requirements.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	Guide cites EN ISO 81060-1 and ANSI/AAMI SP09. These standards are separate from independent clinical validation; exact peer-reviewed validation not established, headline validation omitted
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	Mechanical dial, pump ball and adjustable deflation valve. No automatic pressure or pulse calculation, irregular-heartbeat screening, AFib detection or ECG
Cuff
Cuff fits
Cuff fits	22–42 cm	25–40 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 25–40 cm cuff in current global guide. Asia-Pacific product page describes a professional cuff without metal bar and gives 25.4–40.6 cm fit; regional wording retained rather than silently combined
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	No electronic storage; readings, date and time are recorded separately by the operator
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 or phone app
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	Mechanical operation without batteries or mains power
Design
Display details
Display details	Non-illuminated LCD with black digits, maker 4.4 × 5.3 cm; physical START/STOP button. Manual IP21	Analogue manometer with pointer; no LCD
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	175 × 70 × 103 mm; maker lists 360 g for the kit without separating component weights
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	Current guide lists cuff, pump ball, valve and soft bag; manometer is identified in the controls. Stethoscope is required for measurement but not included in the listed accessories
