Method
Method	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation; first on-sale date not established	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation, marketed as Gentle+ pressure and speed control. Exact operation describes pumping followed by gradual pressure reduction; no MAM sequence established despite copied MAM-button wording in some instructions. First on-sale date unresolved
Accuracy
Accuracy	Maker manual specifies display accuracy of ±3 mmHg for systolic and diastolic pressure and ±5% of the displayed pulse value; this specification is distinct from clinical validation	July 2025 E-V10 manual gives systolic 60–255 mmHg, diastolic 40–200 mmHg and pulse 40–199 bpm; static pressure ±3 mmHg and pulse ±5%. UK product/support instead give blood pressure 20–280 mmHg and pulse 40–200 bpm; September 2023 S-V11 manual says pulse 20–200 despite its error table's 40 bpm threshold. Conflicting ranges qualified; cuff-pressure display 0–299 mmHg is separate
Clinical validation
Clinical validation	Beurer states clinical testing to ISO 81060-2 in the manual; exact independent registry confirmation was not established	STRIDE BP lists A2 Basic as an equivalent device to BP A100, for adults and diabetes with 22–42 and 32–52 cm cuffs. Headline indicates registry acceptance by equivalence, not a separate exact-model trial. Maker manual instead cites BP 3BT0-A technology; Medaval notes that the equivalence evidence does not establish MDR-compliant accuracy validation
Features
Features	Single start/stop button, cuff fit check, irregular heartbeat warning, classification scale and automatic switch-off; maker lists no resting indicator or calculated averages	Ordinary IHB indication, traffic-light classification, cuff check, movement warning, low-battery indicator and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute. No dedicated AFib screening or app
Cuff

Cuff
Cuff	Supplied upper-arm cuff	Supplied conical M-L cuff fits 22–42 cm in UK maker product page. Manual lists optional S 17–22, M 22–32, L 32–42 and L-XL 32–52 cm; do not treat all optional sizes as supplied

Memory
Memory	–	Stores last 30 dated readings and first displays their average on recall, then individual results. Oldest overwritten when full. History retained on cell replacement while clock resets. Newly displayed reading can be excluded; stored history clears together. No user-selector operation established; manuals contain copied two-user wording, so headline user count remains omitted
App
App	Scan & Save in beurer HealthManager Pro uses a smartphone camera to record the display; no Bluetooth connection	–
Power
Power	Four 1.5 V LR03 AAA batteries or optional DC 5 V, 1 A mains adaptor through USB-C; USB-C is for mains operation, not charging the disposable batteries	Four 1.5 V AA alkaline batteries, approximately 920 measurements with new cells in July 2025 manual. Optional Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA mains adapter uses dedicated socket without drawing battery current. NiMH rechargeable cells supported but charged externally; no internal charging

Display details
Display details	Non-illuminated LCD, 4.4 × 5.3 cm, with black digits; maker lists no date/time display	LCD with ON/OFF, memory and time controls, cuff socket and adapter socket; IP20 in July 2025 manual
Size
Size	12.00 × 9.00 × 4.00 cm (L × W × H)	UK product/support and July 2025 E-V10 manual agree on 135.5 × 82 × 57 mm and 340 g including batteries. September 2023 S-V11 instead says 157.5 × 105 × 61.5 mm and 415 g; those conflicting older figures are not assigned to the headline
In the box
In the box	Monitor, 22–42 cm cuff and four AAA batteries	Monitor, textile storage pouch, four AA alkaline cells, blood-pressure diary and M-L 22–42 cm cuff listed by UK maker page; mains adapter optional
