What’s good:Simple one-piece design with no tubesSophisticated and stylishWell madeClear high-contrast displayBatteries includedOptional smartphone app for keeping a log of readingsWhat’s not so good:Fits biceps 9” diameter up to around 16.5”Quite expensiveSingle user onlyI was wondering when someone would come up with a nice, neatly designed one-piece BP monitor, and I’m not in any way surprised that Omron would be the company to showcase it. This ‘Evolv’ wireless upper arm BP monitor does away with the separate cuff/tube/device setup, and switches to a single cuff with on-cuff display. The fact that they have managed to do this without it weighing very much - which was my initial concern,

As a Vine reviewer I've had a few BPM's to test over the years and this is the most flash and expensive one yet. But, it's by no means the best.Now, don't get me wrong, this is a very good bit of kit. High quality with a real high end feel about it. But, the fact is that it's not as good or as easy to use as other Omron products lower down the price range.And that's for one simple reason. The combined armband and monitoring unit is a bit of a faff to use by yourself. Not impossible of course but it takes a few goes to get it in place securely and even then it does not feel that tight. I ended up having to use my chin to hold it in place whilst I tried to get it secure which is irritating.Once in place it does take a fair time to pump up and that's for two reasons I think.

I shall start by saying this model is only designed for a single user and to view any historic data you will have to use it with a suitable Android or iOS compatible Bluetooth device (No User A/B Switch or Guest use or the ability to view previous readings).First of all, recycle the eight instruction leaflets that are not in your language, install the Connect OMRON application on your smartphone or tablet and then insert the four AAA batteries provided, the unit should then display the SYNC symbol.All the rest of the configuration is done on your Android or iOS device and for me it took two attempts to find the device but then it configured OK.The app requires no registration and permits your

Being a healthcare professional, I spend a lot of time using a wide range of medical equipment. I am very familiar with a number of Omron's offerings and was quite excited to try out this new, unique product.The first thing to mention about the Evolv is how solid it feels in the hand. It is a very high quality blood pressure monitor and you can certainly tell the difference between this and Omron's lower cost products. The control unit is securely attached to the arm cuff, which is semi-rigid and makes fastening it to your arm very easy. Indeed, I think this blood pressure monitor would work well for people who have limited mobility because of just how easy it is to apply. When fastened,

I have two other budget models in the house, which we have recently used exhaustively as I am recovering from a major heart attack. As much as the others seem to work, they do not hold a candle to this amazing product! This is so easy to use, so easy to read and leaves you with confidence in the final reading. Just slip up the left arm above the elbow and secure with the Velcro - this is much easier than on cheaper models and gives you greeter confidence that it is in the right place and secure. Always remember that the cuff should be at heart level and you should be relaxed as you take the measurement.Once it is in place, press start and the humming as the cuff tightens commences.The display is very clear and easy to read,

I'll admit it right here, im a luddite, im a paper and pen person, tech scares me, i pass anything that can think for itself to the other half but as this is medical i thought id be brave (well i managed the breadmaker!).Put batteries in (they were provided, which was nice), loaded the app on my ancient phone, wrapped the strap around my upper arm, followed the instructions on keeping arm still, shutting up, sitting still beforehand etc then started it.I hate blood pressure tests, they make me nervous which pushes up my blood pressure, which means i have to have more of them, which makes me more nervous (a self fullfilling prophecy), so i waited with a heavy heart for this to process while trying to think relaxing thoughts ("Jamaican Beach,

Went for this because it says its clinically validated for accuracy and its meant to be free from user error (unlike other more conventional types that rely on fitting it properly it uses deep learning algorithms, so regardless of how you fit it it should give an accurate reading.)Also no tubes and very light is a bonus.Its pretty expensive compared to classic clinically validated types and I do wonder if I should have just learned to use one properly to ensure accurate readings rather than be passive and lazy and expect the machine to do everything!! Especially since I suspect the durability of the classic monitor types is likely better.

I am very impressed with the Omron Evolv BP Monitor. I have used Omron products over the years and have found them as durable and high quality but this product is on another level from other BP monitors I've tried. It is extremely easy to set up and use. First you have to load in the supplied 4 AAA batteries and then I paired it with the Omron Connect app on my iPhone. I'll say that set up took less than 5 minutes. I then took my first reading which was extremely straightforward, also. You press the start button, the arm wrap inflates until it's just about uncomfortable and then it defaults and you get your reading.

While generally home blood pressure monitors these days work well but are a bit of a faff, this 'OMRON EVOLV All-In-One, Wireless, Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor - Black' was a revelation to us. I approached it with slight trepidation because of it being a 'connected' device - the member of the household for whom it is required is not tech-savvy and wouldn't manage a monitor which required use of a smartphone to see the results - but am delighted to report that it is the simplest we've ever tried. While you can install the app on your phone/tablet for monitoring/tracking purposes, it is not essential at ALL, and the machine works perfectly out of the box without ever going anywhere near an app (take note,

Very easy to use. I have to take readings on my right arm and putting on a traditional cuff with a damaged left hand was proving to be impossible, and probably raised my blood pressure! The cuff has an arm shaped section which you slide up your arm to the correct position and then a velcro flap to close. You don’t have to get it very tight before you start taking a reading.It comes in a neat zip case and was very easy to set up and connect to my iPad. You can use without a phone or ipad but obviously is is much easier if you can see the readings on the Omron Connect app.Tested against a blood pressure monitor at the surgery it appears to be accurate.It is for one person only.

I've already got a few health care related gadgets in my house, so being able to measure my own blood pressure struck me as being convenient and complementary to devices that I'm already using. On the one hand, this works very well as a standalone blood pressure monitor. It is very nicely made, has a comfy strap that fits large or small arms and the on screen display is clear and easy to read. The app that is used to track regular tests is also, by itself, simple and easy to use. Where this falls down is that the app isn't compatible with MyFitnessPal, which is my default health monitoring app and is where my S-Health, Fitbit, Microsoft and Nokia Health data all end up. Also,

This is a very satisfying blood pressure monitor. First, I’ve checked its accuracy against that of my GP surgery’s devices. It shows pretty much the same readings, not too surprisingly, given that they use Omron devices too. Second, it combines the accuracy of an upper-arm device with the convenience of a wrist-mounted option in that the whole system is integrated. You only need to loosen the strap, put your arm through the sleeve and tighten it again when it’s in position. Hit the button and let it do its thing. You don’t even have to remove your shirt or top. I’ve checked the readings on my bare arm and when wearing a light pullover and they’re identical. Third,

I bought this BP cuff, reduced by 30%, from Amazon Warehouse as a damaged box item, and indeed the box was damaged. However, the cuff appeared in pristine condition. I have found it easy to use and accurate as it gives very similar readings to my two monitors which have been validated. One is a Boots monitor and the other an Omron M6. I wanted this cuff so I could be mobile and take measurements without having to carry a monitor around. The data transfers readily to my iphone5 , even if the cuff is not switched on, which I thought was pretty cool. The measurements can be emailed to my PC and downloaded as an Excel file. From there I can do loads of calculations such as average readings at different times of the day and night etc.

Nice bit of kit. Accurate and only takes readings on the inflating stroke. Quick and easy. Love the graph output. Think Omron missed a trick with the app. They could have added functionality so you could wear this continuously and use a time set on the app to take readings automatically like the GP ones do when you have to monitor. Nevermind. An option for the future.Still a really good, reliable product. Easy to fit. Pairs easy. Didn't communicate with the app on a few occasions but just restarted my phone.Edit: Just exported my readings to my GP after taking 3 measurements in morning, noon, evening and night. Over the top, but did this for two weeks and still on the batteries that came with the unit.

I’m 33 and have been diagnosed with young mans hypertension. I have an iPhone XS and have previously been writing my readings taken with the wired BP monitor on loan from GP into my phone notes. My sister bought me this BP monitor and it has transformed my life, when you take a reading, simply press the connect button and the readings fly to your app on your phone, it then plots a graph and adds it to the apps calendar where by the press of a finger you can add the time you took up to 3 medications, if you exercised, slept well or not and even whether you had your vegetables for the day. All by pressing pictures, it’s easy!Then, when it comes to a follow up with your GP our consultant...
