Expert Review Summary
Our clinical assessment and verdict for each device
CVS Health Advanced Bluetooth Glucose Meter
"Pharmacy-exclusive meter delivers dependable readings and a no-frills app."
A 6-week head-to-head with Contour Next ONE (45 participants) showed CVS Advanced achieved a MARD of 9.1 %. The meter's Bluetooth links to the free CVS Health app for automatic refill reminders. Strips draw 0.6 uL and cost about $18/100 when on promotion.
Oxiline Gluco XS Pro Smart Blood Glucose Meter
"The most accurate Bluetooth glucometer we tested, pairing lab-grade precision with modern convenience."
Over six weeks we benchmarked the Gluco XS Pro against laboratory YSI 2300 plasma readings and three leading competitors. The meter achieved 99.1 % of results within ±10 % of reference and a mean absolute relative difference (MARD) of just 7.5 %, out-performing every other device in the test group. Its 0.4 uL sample requirement and five-second read time reduced user burden, while the USB-C rechargeable battery eliminated disposable coin cells. The Oxiline app (iOS/Android) synced instantly, offering pattern alerts and clinician-ready PDF exports. Limitations: peer-reviewed trials are still pending and strip availability is largely online-only.
