LibreLink make an app that can be used in certain Android phones, including the new Samsung Note, to get readings from Abbott Sensors. The benefit for me is that I wouldn't need to carry or buy an Abbott Reader, so making mobile monitoring easier. The joke that obviously escaped you was that the Samsung Notes may catch fire when charging-35 have.
The joke was not about the equipment used to monitor BS's that obviously needs to be accurate.
I use an Apple Watch to monitor my pulse & a Withings sphygmomanometer linked to my iPhone to monitor my blood-pressure.

"Nemaura Medical anticipates a sugarBEAT® product launch in Europe in 2017, where it has previously obtained CE approval. In the US, Nemaura Medical has had discussions with the FDA and anticipates completing its clinical program and submitting a PMA application around mid 2017.
SugarBEAT® differs from existing CGM’s given it comprises an adhesive daily-disposable skin-patch which does not require insertion of a needle-like sensor inside the skin. SugarBEAT® also provides users with tremendous flexibility as to when and how often they choose to wear the patch. Both of these factors are expected to empower users in a way current CGM’s cannot."
The simpler & more accurate BS monitoring can be the better for me.
