OMRON X3 Comfort Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor for Home Use - Clinically Validated BP Monitor for Use in Diabetics or During Pregnancy - BP Machine with Intelli Wrap Cuff (22-42 cm)

Bought this as a second machine due to my main one being a cheaper make and I was suspect to its accuracy. This is by far better, it gives readings in the same range as the one at the local surgery. It has a nice comfortable feel to the cuff instead of the pinch on my other one, and is much easier to place correctly one handed than the wrap back through a metal buckle effect of the other cuffs. The display is nicely sized and clear. The measuring procedure is simple one touch and the auto memory function is useful making averaging an easy few seconds task after your readings. It will tell you if you have anything gone wrong, like cuff wrongly placed or too loose, or you moved during the measure, things like this all help you to get accurate results, including your heart rate at the time. The whole thing seems really well made and well worth the extra few pounds over the cheaper available machines. My initial thoughts are fully positive, if things change I will update in the future.

OMRON X4 Smart blood pressure monitor is perfect, easy to use and ideal, with option to monitor 2 people. Excellent quality.

I bought this device after the good Doctor told me to monitor my blood pressure.Omron are the go to manufacturer and is the brand also used by my GP (and most hospitals).The screen is bright, clear and easy to read. The arm cuff is sturdy making it easy to go on and place correctly on the arm. In fact the machine monitors if you have the correct placement.One feature I wanted, and another reason why I bought this specific device type out of the many that Omron produce, was the ability to connect it to a mobile phone via bluetooth and the Omron connect app. This allows you to transfer your blood pressure history to the app. Once you have done this, you can view the entire history as well as create and email a report - which you can subsequently email or print to show to your Doctor. In fact my Doctor was so impressed he thought that I had paid for the report via a private clinic.The device can support two profiles (people). My wife and I, therefore, can separately monitor and record the history - and connect to it on our separate phones.In reading other reviews, I notice that people have difficulty with connecting to the device via bluetooth as well as the app functionality. My wife and I have never encountered any problems. Omron did update the app which could have gone better but outside of this, the pairing and app usage has not been an issue.So, all in all, I'm very pleased with the device. Omron is a trusted brand which is the main reason I purchased this device and the app and reporting is extremely well done.

I needed a new blood pressure monitor to replace my old one which is now 20+ years old. I wanted another Omron as the brand has proved accurate and reliable over the time I’ve used it, and I thought that the additional functionality of being able to upload the results to an app on my phone would be useful for when I need to send the results to the doctor. I haven’t been disappointed with the monitor. The new cuff design is easy to position correctly and use. The display is large, clear and easy to read. The instrument is accurate when I’ve been able to cross reference it with the doctor’s monitor.I downloaded the app with the intention of being able to graph my results. The instructions the app gives you are different from the instructions that come with the device. So after some confusion, I had to use the American instructions instead of the UK ones. I wasn’t happy about this because the interface of the American app is crap compared with what the UK one was supposed to look like. On top of that, I found that I had to register with an American website and that my results would be stored on their cloud, not on my phone. Didn’t fancy sharing my medical details with god knows who, so I deleted the app, and now just use the monitor normally. If you have privacy concerns over sharing your personal medical data with an American company, save a few quid and buy the standard version rather than the Bluetooth one. I certainly regret wasting the extra for the Bluetooth function that I now won’t use. I also with that the cuff hose could be detached from the monitor for storage like my old one. Other than that, I would !highly recommend the product.

I purchased the Omron X3 Comfort Blood Pressure Monitor and have been using it regularly at home. Overall, it’s a reliable and user-friendly device, but I wish I had spent a bit more to buy the version with the app for tracking and generating graphs, which I think would have been more convenient for monitoring long-term trends.That said, this model has some great features. The Intelli Wrap cuff is a standout—it’s easy to use and eliminates the hassle of manually wrapping it around your arm. The ability to store readings for two separate users is another big plus, making it ideal for households where more than one person needs to monitor their blood pressure.At first there were reoccuring error messages which I found out was the device letting me know I was using it incorrectly in some way. Very helpful.If you’re looking for a straightforward, clinically validated monitor, this is a solid choice. However, if you’re someone who wants to easily track and analyse your data over time, I’d recommend considering the upgraded version with app connectivity.
