Beurer BM 27 vs Microlife BP 3AS1-2
Better figure, where one is clearly better
| BeurerBM 27 | MicrolifeBP 3AS1-2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Overview | ||
| Released | – | – |
| Measuring | ||
| Type | Upper arm | Upper arm |
| Clinically validated | – | Yes |
| Irregular heartbeat detection | Yes | No |
| AFib detection or ECG | No | No |
| Method | Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation; BM 27 item 65818, distinct from BM 27+ and regional Limited Edition models. First on-sale date unconfirmed | Semi-automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement with capacitive pressure sensor. Hand inflation using pump integrated into handle; automatic deflation and digital pressure/pulse results. O/I button interrupts measurement and releases cuff pressure. Actual first retail date unresolved |
| Accuracy | Maker specifies systolic and diastolic display accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse ±5%; systolic range 50–280 mmHg, diastolic 30–200 mmHg and pulse 40–199 beats/minute | February 2024 exact guide gives systolic/diastolic range 20–280 mmHg, pulse 40–200 bpm, 1 mmHg pressure resolution, static pressure accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5% of reading |
| Clinical validation | Maker claims clinical validation and ESH recognition, while its datasheet names technical identity to BPM63S. Medaval reports equivalence without published evidence or verifiable MDR compliance, rather than a directly published exact-device validation study; independent validation flag omitted | Nathan and colleagues, Blood Pressure Monitoring 2015, tested exact Microlife 3AS1-2 in 45 pregnant women including 15 with pre-eclampsia. Overall B/A grade under the British Hypertension Society protocol and passed the study's ISO mean-difference standard; pregnancy-only subgroup A/A. These are study-specific findings, not evidence for every population named in generic maker text |
| Features | Cuff-fit check, irregular-heartbeat warning, classification scale and automatic switch-off; no HSD resting indicator, AFib screening or ECG | Manual inflation, automatic measurement/deflation, low-battery and inflation indicators. Flashing heart indicates detected pulse, not irregular-heartbeat screening. No AFib detection, ECG or automatic triple-measurement mode |
| Cuff | ||
| Cuff fits | 22–42 cm | 22–32 cm |
| Cuff | Universal upper-arm cuff for 22–42 cm circumference | Supplied M 22–32 cm cuff; optional L 32–42 cm. Single-tube cuff with T-connector attaches at the back of the device |
| Connections and memory | ||
| Users | 4 (better) | 1 |
| Readings stored | 30 per user (better) | 1 |
| Bluetooth and app | No | No |
| Memory | Four users with 30 readings each; averages of all saved readings and morning/evening values from the latest seven days | One latest measurement retained until the next measurement or battery removal. Hold O/I for at least three seconds to recall. No dated history, user selector or averaging |
| App | No Bluetooth; HealthManager Pro Scan & Save uses a smartphone camera to capture the monitor display | No Bluetooth, USB or phone-app transfer |
| Power | Four 1.5 V LR6 AA batteries included; approximately 700 measurements depending on blood pressure and inflation pressure; no mains adaptor operation for this exact item | Two 1.5 V AAA alkaline cells; approximately 780 measurements using new batteries. Current guide does not recommend 1.2 V rechargeable cells. Generic guarantee wording about an optional adaptor does not establish a mains socket or mains operation |
| Design | ||
| Display details | Non-illuminated LCD with black digits, 5.2 × 3.8 cm; date/time and battery-level indication; IP21 | LCD showing systolic, diastolic and pulse readings; single O/I button. IP20 |
| Size | 112 × 110 × 53 mm (L × W × H); manual and datasheet approximately 341 g including cuff but excluding batteries. Web table's 447 g excludes packaging without matching those conditions | 68 × 186 × 48.5 mm (width × length × height); 310 g including batteries, excluding cuff in global support table |
| In the box | Monitor, universal cuff, four AA batteries, storage bag, instructions and blood pressure record | Exact guide establishes monitor with integrated pump and M 22–32 cm cuff; complete regional accessory list unresolved |
