| 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 | Professional automatic oscillometric or stethoscope-assisted auscultatory measurement. Manual mode uses the marker button for systolic/diastolic readings. First-sale date unresolved |
| 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 | Pressure 30–260 mmHg; pulse 40–199 bpm. Maker accuracy ±3 mmHg pressure and ±5% pulse |
| 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 | STRIDE BP lists AC1000f directly for adults in office/clinic use, with a 2020 validation study using BHS 1993. Listing is distinct from older AC1000f revisions and other monitors approved through equivalence |
| 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 | PARR pulse screening flags AFib, premature beats, tachycardia above 100 bpm and bradycardia below 55 bpm, including combined findings; not ECG. Cuff-fit and movement indicators. Manual deflation selectable at 2.5, 4.5 or 6.5 mmHg per second |
| Cuff | ||
| Cuff fits | 22–42 cm | 16–46 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 | Supplied latex-free small 16–26 cm, medium 24–36 cm and large 34–46 cm cuffs; select the cuff matching the arm. Anti-splash protective cover and cuff holder |
| Connections and memory | ||
| Users | – | 1 |
| Readings stored | 30 (better) | 7 |
| 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 | Single seven-reading history for automatic measurements; oldest replaced when full. Manual-mode readings are not included in this automatic history |
| App | – | No Bluetooth. Guide labels a data-link socket but does not establish a currently available PC-transfer service |
| 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 | Rechargeable 4.8 V, 1,800 mAh NiMH battery pack; supplied 7.5 V mains adaptor rated at least 1.5 A. Maker claims approximately 600 measurements per charge; initial charge more than 12 hours. Orange charging LED turns green when full. Five-minute automatic shutdown on battery; automatic shutdown disabled on mains |

| 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 | LCD with pulse-arrhythmia, mode and battery indicators; IP21 |
| Size | 152 × 92 × 42 mm; 393 g including batteries in current exact guide and maker pages | 130 × 133 × 167.5 mm (L × W × H); maker guide lists 600 g without battery pack |
| 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 | Maker lists batteries, small/medium/large cuffs, 7.5 V adaptor and instructions. Optional trolley; stethoscope not listed as supplied |
