BPM Connect is the most phone-independent monitor on this list. It syncs over Wi-Fi as well as Bluetooth, so readings reach the Withings App and its unlimited cloud storage even if your phone is in another room, and the LED matrix screen shows results with a color-coded indicator. The rechargeable battery is rated at up to 6 months per charge over micro-USB, and the wide-range cuff fits arms from 9 to 17 inches. Withings says the device was validated in a clinical study following ESH, AAMI and ISO protocols, and it flags incorrect measurements. The weak points are local memory, only 8 readings between syncs, and setup, which needs a phone and cannot be done from a computer. Withings sells it for $129.95 and includes a free month of Withings+, an optional $99.50 per year plan that adds expert services. Basic data stays free. It has no AFib screening, and pacemakers can make readings inconclusive.

Who it is for

People who already use Withings scales or watches and want readings to sync over Wi-Fi without opening an app.
