	BeurerBM 96 Cardio	RossmaxX9 BT
Overview
Released
Released	–	–
Measuring
Type
Type	Upper arm	Upper arm
Irregular heartbeat detection
Irregular heartbeat detection	Yes	Yes
AFib detection or ECG
AFib detection or ECG	Yes	Yes
Method
Method	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm blood pressure measurement during inflation; separate single-channel ECG stick. Exact BM 96 Cardio item 65801. Maker announcement dated 31 August 2021 does not establish the first retail date, which remains unconfirmed	Automatic oscillometric measurement or auscultatory mode using a separate stethoscope and marker button. Intended for adults at home and in clinical settings. First-sale date unresolved
Accuracy
Accuracy	Maker display accuracy ±3 mmHg for systolic and diastolic pressure and ±5% for pulse; systolic range 60–280 mmHg, diastolic 30–200 mmHg and pulse 30–199 beats/minute. Cuff-pressure range 0–300 mmHg is separate. ECG bandwidth 0.05–40 Hz and sample rate 500 Hz	Pressure 30–260 mmHg; pulse 40–199 bpm. Maker accuracy ±3 mmHg pressure and ±5% pulse
Clinical validation
Clinical validation	Independently published exact-device blood pressure validation not established; Medaval reports no peer-reviewed validation information for this technology, so headline validation flag omitted	Maker carries ESH/BIHS claims. Medaval's exact X9 BT entry says peer-reviewed validation evidence and protocol-compliant equivalence remain unproven; non-Bluetooth X9's registry listing is not transferred
Features
Features	AFib detection, irregular-heartbeat warning, cuff-fit check, two measurement reminders, coloured classification scale and HSD haemodynamic resting indicator. ECG recordings can be 30, 60, 90 or 120 seconds; status indications include OK, AFib, heart rate below 60 bpm or above 100 bpm. Chest/finger methods approximate leads II or III; hand-to-hand method approximates lead I and has lower stability. These are alternative single-channel positions, not simultaneous three-lead recording; the maker's doctor annex excludes full clinical or emergency diagnosis	PARR flags AFib, premature beats, tachycardia above 100 bpm and bradycardia below 55 bpm, including combined findings. Pulse screening, not ECG. Cuff-fit, movement and hypertension indicators
Cuff
Cuff fits
Cuff fits	22–42 cm	16–46 cm
Cuff
Cuff	Upper-arm cuff for 22–42 cm circumference; correct cuff placement and resting conditions are still required	Supplied latex-free small 16–26 cm, medium 24–36 cm and large 34–46 cm cuffs; overall range requires choosing the appropriate cuff. Cuff holder
Connections and memory
Users
Users	2 (better)	1
Readings stored
Readings stored	60 per user	90 (better)
Bluetooth and app
Bluetooth and app	Yes	Yes
Memory
Memory	Two users with up to 60 dated blood pressure readings each; oldest overwritten when full. Averages of all stored readings and morning/evening readings over the latest seven days. ECG memory holds up to 60 recordings per user at 30 seconds; longer recordings can reduce capacity. Deleting memory clears the selected user history	Single 90-reading history with date/time for automatic measurements; oldest replaced when full. Auscultatory readings are not included in this stored automatic-mode history
App
App	Bluetooth Low Energy transfer to beurer HealthManager Pro. The maker's October 2022 datasheet also specifies web software and USB uploader; these are separate from Bluetooth transfer. Current manual gives compatibility with Bluetooth 4.0 or later, not an exact radio version. Optional MyCardio Pro analysis service is described separately on the product page	Bluetooth low energy sends completed readings to Rossmax Healthstyle after pairing; stored automatic-mode readings can also be transferred. Auscultatory systolic/diastolic readings transfer when marked with the button. Guide documents an optional specially designed USB cable for PC transfer, but Rossmax now says BP Manager software is discontinued and no longer available; monitor remains independently usable
Power
Power	Four 1.5 V AA batteries included; approximately 300 measurements depending on blood pressure, inflation pressure and ECG recording duration	Four AA alkaline cells, DC 6 V; supplied 6 V mains adaptor rated at least 600 mA. Automatic shutdown after one minute without key operation
Design
Display details
Display details	Illuminated LCD with black digits, maker 10.4 × 6.7 cm; four sensor touch buttons, illuminated start/stop button, date/time and battery indicator. IP21	Backlit 99 × 115 mm LCD with mode and pulse-arrhythmia flags; IP21
Size
Size	Blood pressure unit 120 × 144 × 53 mm (L × W × H), approximately 490 g without batteries and with cuff; ECG stick approximately 40 g and 22 mm diameter × 120 mm height. Web table's 744 g excluding packaging lacks the same weighing conditions and is not substituted for the manual values	173 × 115 × 64.5 mm (L × W × H); maker guide lists 410 g without batteries
In the box
In the box	Blood pressure unit, cuff, ECG stick, four AA batteries, storage pouch, instructions, quick-start guide and annex for the attending doctor, as listed in the May 2026 manual; UK product page additionally lists a USB transfer cable and blood pressure record	Batteries, small/medium/large cuffs, 6 V adaptor, instruction manual and zipper bag; PC cable optional. Stethoscope not listed as supplied
