Perfect. I have blood pressure monitoring in my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. It needs to be calibrated.

I wish I had of waited for the forehead smartwatch edition intead, it seems more accurate.

As a child, I dreamed of a future where we could get a blood pressure reading without the burden of using Velcro and finally, today, that future is here. And the only cost for the convenience is the drop in accuracy. And money. It costs a lot more than the Velcro way. But aside from those costs, no cost.
