Report on Omron "Evolv" BP7000 / HEM-7600T-Z series upper arm bluetooth BP monitor

[retiree]

Reporting on this only because I tracked down the app details.

 

The "Omron Evolv" is on Shopee / Lazada for about 4K baht.  It is the HEM-7600T-Z model.  I bought Shopee / TSMactive because they looked bigger than the other guy; probably same owner lol.

 

This is the model that works with the Omron app from the US Google Play store (which my Android phone uses -- you can only change once per year).  The Thai alternative HEM-7600T, which is sold by the "official" Omron store, costs about 900 baht more, and I was told will only use the Asia version of the app.   The US version is cheaper on Amazon, but they won't ship it to Thailand.

 

Readings are very close to the Omron Series 7 wrist guy I bought almost exactly 10 years ago, and which is now getting a little balky about starting.  I put my left hand across my chest so the device is over my heart, at about the same height as the arm unit.  Both seem to have good repeatability; wrist is typically a few mm higher just like the Interweb says.   

 

If I had to do it over again I'd just get the cheaper, non-Bluetooth wrist version -- it seems to be just as accurate but is easier to put on & take off.
