Pros & Cons
Pros
The display is very sleek and modern. It has positive reviews on almost all websites where it is sold so i was surprised to see so many negative reviews on amazon. Great device, better than the older green one, rolls up more so easier moved around.
Withings bpm connect is a blood pressure monitor unit that can connect via bluetooth or wifi to a smartphone using the withings healthmate app. The app records your bp and pulse directly from the machine and provides a timeline graph - very neat. Andr... Read More
The withings bpm connect is medically accurate and compliant with european medical device standards. Whilst a little more expensive than some similar devise, this provides accurate and easy to record blood pressure measurements.
The app is intuitive to use and records the blood pressure in easy to see and use formats. Once it uploads (which is immediate if your phone is in range) it keeps a permanent history so that you can see trends over time. Data is collected on a smartph... Read More
In use, it is very powerful and squeezes you arm very tightly. Both the monitor and the fabric & velcro strap are well-constructed. It's lighter and easier to wear, with just a fabric cuff rather than the rigid cuff of the original bpm.
Cons
It's slim, but it has some issues here too. You cannot use this device standalone straight from the box. I have a refund coming.

A full charge is only down to 77% after 3 months on use.
Guessing even you have to use it a few times a day it will go a few weeks between charges.

At the time of purchase, it was on discount on both amazon and withings website.
Quite expensive but alas you get what you pay for.
It's expensive, but it's accurate and safe.
Packaging/appearance
The unit wraps it’s self into a very sleek package.
Competitiveness
The withings software has improved significantly over the last year and now shares results with the health app on the iphone.
If you want a smart one from a renowned and approved brand - this one ticks the boxes as far as i’m concerned.
It's easy to set up and easy to use so the only real negative when compared to other products is the price.
Most systems i have found online are aa battery operated (not ideal) until i came across withings via youtube and amazon.
