Microlife BP A150-30 AFIB vs Omron M6 Comfort
Better figure, where one is clearly better
| MicrolifeBP A150-30 AFIB | OmronM6 Comfort | |

| Measuring | ||
| Type | Upper arm | Upper arm |
| Clinically validated | Yes | Yes |
| Irregular heartbeat detection | Yes | Yes |
| AFib detection or ECG | Yes | Yes |
| Method | Oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation with Gentle+ pressure control. Side switch selects single measurement or AFIB/MAM mode; three measurements with 15-second pauses produce one analysed result. Individual results are not displayed; a fourth measurement is taken if one is questionable. First actual on-sale date unresolved | Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement; HEM-7360-E, distinct from M6 Comfort AFib HEM-7380-E and earlier M6 Comfort revisions. First on-sale date not established |
| Accuracy | Current E-V10 July 2025 guide gives systolic 60–255 mmHg, diastolic 40–200 mmHg, pulse 40–199 bpm, static accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5%. France page instead gives blood pressure 20–280 mmHg and pulse 40–200 bpm; global support also gives pulse 40–200. These range differences remain explicit. Cuff-pressure display 0–299 mmHg is separate | Maker's pressure accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5% of displayed reading; systolic range 60–260 mmHg, diastolic 40–215 mmHg and pulse 40–180 beats/minute |
| Clinical validation | STRIDE BP accepts equivalence to BP A100 for adult and diabetes populations, with 22–42 and 32–52 cm cuffs. Headline reflects registry acceptance by equivalence, not a separate exact-model validation trial. Broad maker population and AFib accuracy claims are not treated as exact-model independent studies | Maker manual states an 85-subject investigation under EN ISO 81060-2:2014 and compliance with 2019+A1:2020, plus pregnancy/preeclampsia and type II diabetes validation. Medaval attributes BIHS/STRIDE recommendations to BP760N HEM-7320-Z equivalence, but notes that the unpublished assessment cannot be verified against MDR requirements; blood-pressure validation does not establish diagnostic accuracy of rhythm indicators |
| Features | AFib screening only operates in AFIB/MAM mode, not standard single measurements. It is not an ECG recording or diagnosis. Cuff-fit and arm-movement indicators, coloured classification scale, low-battery warning and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute | Selectable AFib mode takes three consecutive measurements at 30-second intervals and displays their average with a possible-AFib indicator. This is pulse-wave screening, not ECG recording or diagnosis; unlike the newer HEM-7380-E, screening is not automatic in every single reading. Exact manual and maker headline confirm the mode despite the web table's AFib No entry. Cuff-wrap, movement, irregular-heartbeat and high-pressure indicators |
| Cuff | ||
| Cuff fits | 22–42 cm | 22–42 cm |
| Cuff | France maker bundle supplies soft conical M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Guide lists optional S 17–22, M 22–32, L 32–42 and L-XL 32–52 cm sizes and preformed cuffs; these are not all supplied | Included HEM-FL31 Intelli Wrap cuff, 22–42 cm arm circumference; approximately 145 × 532 mm, 750 mm tube and 163 g |
| Connections and memory | ||
| Users | – | 2 |
| Readings stored | 30 | 100 per user (better) |
| Bluetooth and app | No | No |
| Memory | Automatically stores the last 30 readings with date and time; oldest overwritten when full. Separate M-button recalls previous readings and clears all history. Individual stored readings cannot be cleared, though a newly displayed result can be excluded before storage. History survives battery replacement but clock must be reset. This is the separately named 30-memory model, not the original A150 AFIB S-V9 last-result-only version | Up to 100 readings per user for two users; unsaved single-reading guest mode does not offer AFib screening. Latest two/three-reading average within ten minutes and morning/evening weekly averages; dual display compares current and earlier results |
| App | – | No Bluetooth or OMRON connect transfer |
| Power | Four 1.5 V AA alkaline cells; approximately 920 measurements with new batteries, with no separate AFIB/MAM-cycle count stated. Optional Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA adapter stops battery-current use when connected. NiMH cells supported but require external charging | Four AA batteries included, DC 6 V / 4 W; optional AC adapter sold separately. Approximately 1000 measurements using new alkaline batteries; AFib mode consumes three regular measurements per indication |
| Design | ||
| Display details | LCD with date/time, M-memory and ON/OFF buttons, side time control and 1/3 AFIB/MAM switch. IP20. Current guide cover abbreviates the name to BP A150 AFIB; exact official A150-30 download, M/time controls and 30-reading operation establish its applicability | Digital LCD with side-by-side readings; monitor IP20. Optional adapter IP21/IP22 classifications do not apply to the monitor |
| Size | 152 × 92 × 42 mm; 393 g including batteries in current exact guide and maker pages | Approximately 191 × 85 × 120 mm (W × H × L); 460 g without batteries |
| In the box | France maker lists cloth storage bag, four AA alkaline cells, blood-pressure diary and soft M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Adapter optional. Product resource is French regional maker page; global support and current multilingual guide include English | Monitor, HEM-FL31 cuff, four AA batteries, storage case and instruction manuals 1/2 |
