Type
An arm monitor takes a reading from the upper part of the arm, whereas a wrist monitor attaches like a watch. Arm monitors are considered more accurate. Wrist monitors require more care to use correctly, but may be easier for some users.
Irregular heartbeat display
An on-screen alert if your heart rate has some disturbance.
Hypertension display
A hypertension warning displays on the screen if your blood pressure is too high – a good prompt to visit your GP.
Validated
We only recommend blood pressure monitors that have been validated by medical research.
Low battery indicator
Time and date

Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find them on second-hand websites, or in second-hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
