Hi guys
I liked the look of this meter, as it works directly with a smartphone. So I tried it and found it to be around 50% out compared to two of my other ones. For example, my Freestyle Optium gave a result of 11.1, my IBGStar gave 10.9 while this one showed 5.5! I got a similar pattern over two days, each time using the same sample with each meter.
I returned it to the company in Europe that sells it, and they refuse to acknowledge that there's anything wrong at all, saying that it's a perfectly acceptable tolerance. I don't think this even meets UK guidelines.
As anyone else had any experience with this device?
