I'm also T1D and really appreciate your testing here. I'm fortunate that we have access in UK to Freestyle Libre through the NHS, but people try to convince me that these watches are 98% accurate so finding tests like yours are really helpful. Many thanks.
I was getting all excited, ready to rush over to Amazon… with those first two readings 🙂. This is my first time watching your videos… thank you for doing this.
Very good! A proper normal people test disclaimer earned my appreciation. Unfortunately, even a broken watch can display the right time twice a day and I believe that was the case. Thanks!
Thanks for doing a comprehensive set of test to prove that these things are designed to separate hopeful people from their money, they are toys, but I do appreciate your review of them and good job, be well. Larry
Many thanks for your videos. I was so tempted by these cheap Chinese Glucose watches because I’m 81 yrs old and hate finger pricks. But we’re not there yet. I have clicked “subscribe” to your web site. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your test. I’ve been impatiently waiting for Apple to offer a glucose monitoring feature so these watches caught my attention. Guess I’ll keep waiting. ❤
Except for when you went swimming, did you have the watch on the whole time? Excellent tests. Really thorough. Thanks a ton for going through all of the trouble to do this.
Thank u SO MUCH. I HATE needles/pricking. U saved me from wasting money. This is depressing. It would be nice if this is all we'd have to do. I tried researching & to no avail. Thanks to you, I now know.👍
I really appreciate your testing. As somebody who's on a low fixed income I have been wanting a CGM in a watch for a little while. 200.00 a month is just way too much. That's what I paid for my freestyle Libre 2. Love the idea of not having to prick my finger but not loving the price
Thank you for the testing, I am looking for a watch to replace me having to prick my finger. I no longer have insurance so I don’t want to buy supplies at full cost. Hope there is a watch out there that can do the job.
Ah, thank you for your quick response. It's not bad for the price. I ended up buying a lot cheaper. I bought 10 and sold it. Now I just ordered more. Thank you soooo much for your reviews. We need people like you. Amen. God bless.
Great video, I have always been a little skeptical about non-invasive glucose monitoring, hopefully it will get better, but who knows. If Apple ever does get an accurate watch, it might be the only reason I would leave the Android Ecosystem, but that's a big IF.
I didn't hear an explanation of WTH Decom is. Great video and I kept saying to myself this is the way I would evaluate this product. Clear, concise and no stupid excitement, music or noise.
I think it's more a question of the tuning parameters applied by the manufacturer. (I'm a process engineer, so background in process control). I recently bought a watch from Shein, from a manufacturer in China, but all the readings I've had so far were in the "good" region. I wish I could access the raw data measurements, before they've applied their tuning factor.
I’m not diabetic but want to monitor my sugar levels to make sure they don’t get too high. I have been looking at these things but so far, none I see tested seemed to work at all. QUESTION; Glad you can change to mg/ dl, thanks
At first, I was skeptical, as I use Blose on my G5 watch with my G7, and it works fine. Then hopeful with the first 2 results. Then back to whatever. A $150 non-invasive option for monitoring sounds wonderful. It's just not there yet. Changing the sensor once a tenday is fine for me. It rarely hurts anyway.
Hi Glenn, I agree the technology is close but just not close enough. I much rather have a reliable device than a trendy one. Thanks for the comment and stay well.
Why would you waste money on Apple's garbage products that are designed to fail, not designed to be repaired, and not designed to be upgraded? So many better options than Apple.
Every video that I’ve seen that includes this type of function in a smartwatch review never speaks to whether or not it’s accurate. Thank you for finally getting some data out there. I would’ve loved to have done it myself, but just couldn’t waste the money on Strange branded watches.
My understanding is that there is a delay where blood glucose levels in the blood take time to show up in the fluid beneath the skin on which non-invasive CGMs rely. This is why the watch in the video "lagged" behind the cappilary blood glucose monitor, showing reading that were the case a while ago as opposed to the test time. . It just takes time for the changes in the blood glucose level to show up in that subcutanuous fluid.
Correct. The watch in the video reading the cgm numbers was only for reference. To test accuracy the non invasive watch was compared to the actual BG. Unfortunately the non invasive watch and the BG readings were very far off.
I bought one of the $25 watches a couple of weeks ago. It is not even close but I had different results than you. It constantly reads 50-90 points low. I am wearing higher up on the wrist above my normal Casio watch. When I was wearing below the wrist there was no consistency or relationship to the glucose meter, it was always low. Now that I am wearing it very high its graphs in the program match my ups and downs, just way low. Like you, I am waiting for apple or someone to bring one out that is correct so I can hand my money to them. FWIIW - The BP, heart rate, spO2 and temp seem to be pretty close though the sp02 readings have none in them (you will see a low reading and re-do it and get the right reading 10% of the time)
Thanks for posting this. My guess is that the manufacturers of these smart watches might be using skin temperature as a proxy measure of blood glucose level. Not entirely wrong or disingenuous in my view, because there is a complex but relatively proportional correlation between body temperature and glucose level (higher body temperature often reflects high glucose level and vice versa). The relationship is approximate at best; and the additional complexities relate to how our skin may or may not corelate directly to fluctuations of actual blood stream (body) temperature: different parts of the body have different skin temperatures; environmental (room temperature/humidity) would affect these readings; plus, stress (due to hypos or exercise nervous tension etc) have complex effects on skin temperature. All in all, I suspect that these smart watches are not entirely useless, but may be calibrated to perform best under optimal conditions that are seldom universal to all situations or all people. Best wishes.
Could be interesting to do a longer study on these watches. Maybe it's just that the readings, trends and graph are severely delayed compared to CGMs which are already 10-15m behind ? If that's the case, the watches could be somewhat useful to get a vague idea of bg trends during the day or night for someone that does not have access to CGMs ?
Hi BitRunner, thank you for sharing your idea. I agree this is going to be an interesting comparison to track over time. I will definitely take your advice and try to implement it in the future.
Interesting review, subscribed. Afraid I might be getting close to pre diabetes cutting sugar and starting alt. day fasting. Guess I'll have to wait for Apple or Google/Fitbit watch.
I live in the Philippines and the link doesn't work for me. Can you please name the brand and model name so I can check if its available here? Then again... nevermind. 😂 Thanks for the review.
Thank you for this! I was looking at getting one of these but now im going to save my money. If apple came out with one i would be more likely too trust it because they are not going to put 💩 on their inventory.
You’re welcome. You’re right apple normally takes the time to put out reliable products. Im hoping that the watch 10 will launch with it this year but it’s more than likely gonna get pushed back.
Thanks for the video, really useful and interesting that it is so far out with its readings. The instructions being so vague would be the first red flag for me, plus I would expect a device like this to need some degree of calibration, both initially and ongoing, to ensure accuracy. Can't wait for the day when Apple release a watch that does Bg readings because they will have tested it to destruction and will get FDA approval.
So strange that the model number or company isn’t stated in the title or the entire description unless i missed it and the link I thought would take me to Amazon to purchase the watch is a dead link. Is this a real watch or an imaginary promo? Idk.
Hi Jean. Well it was real. I paid allot for it and thank god they allowed me to return it via Amazon. The link no longer works. My guess is that videos like mine tanked the product from hurting unsuspecting consumers. I’m thankful to be able to do my part in exposing it as a fraudulent device. Hope this helps.
Maybe this is why Apple has not implemented it into a watch yet there is not a proper working sensor whether you like Apple or not, Apple does try to make a product that works as advertise
Apple's watch is NOTHING like these cheap Chinese watches. Apple's sensor has already been proven to work consistently. The problem for Apple is getting them approved by the FDA because the makers of diabetes blood sugar testing products are fighting this tooth and nail because they know once Apple's watch comes out their BILLION dollar business will be OVER. The FDA is corrupt as hell, which is why Apple has been talking about their watch for YEARS now without being able to get it approved.
Thanks Man I brought one from Ali Express is totally False reading all time comparing to My old fashioned of checking BS. Please Apple or Samsung help I don’t like stabbing my Finger it’s really painful 😅
You need to know one very important piece of information. The difference between Accu Chek and a watch is huge. Accu check measures sugar from the blood, while the sensors measure from the intercellular fluid. When I reported a malfunction on my Libre2 sensor, they told me that 10 minutes must pass between the blood sugar measurement and the measurement on the sensor. So I believe that this watch also shows its value well, but you should find out on which principle it works. It's a shame that they didn't write it in the instructions for that rather expensive device.
Thanks for the clarification, Mia. Although I have done many videos on this distinction. I only used the BG meter and CGM as a reference for trending purposes, not exact accuracy measurements. Thanks again, and stay well.
There is no sensor on the watch. it uses a fake sensor to deceive the user, and generate fake numbers. put it on a dummy arm, see it will still give your readings.
Depends on the use- your research was not specific to the population addressed, This watch seems to be of great value for early Dx dm2 or Diabetic type 2 early stages, in other words, not seeking to discover Hypo or severe glycemic values. I would not use it on a population the detection of critical values is necessary, I suspect that If you are someone with hyperglycemia stable, not brittle, or not leading to life life-threatening situations, if there is any doubt, I would confirm with the more invasive monitoring. You are right, more sensitive and specific devices should be developed. Understanding it will creep the price initially 3- 5x.
One quick question, did this watch have an allowance for manual fasting blood sugar input? If so, that might have improved its predictive accuracy towards glucose spikes at least. But I doubt it would be able to predict hypoglycemia or lows. Individual glucose curves and dips are probably far too unique and difficult for the algorithm to properly map, I'd imagine.
I believe it did have that feature. Luckily I cannot tell you for sure as I was able to produce this video in time to be able to return the device for a refund minus shipping costs. Since it was technically not accurate.
@@typ3me Cool! Thanks. Yeah for 30-40$, its a fun toy, and maybe worth a loss, but set back 150$ that's an investment, I would expect better accuracy at that price. Good for you to send it back.
I would expect Samsung to hit the market first before Apple with a BG sensor on a Galaxy watch. I will have to switch if it happens but I prob won’t be overly excited about it
Seems to have disappeared from the Amazon store, even their cheaper watch. So not sure what happened but searching in a few other outlets it's gone from there too!
Thanks for sharing, I don't really think a watch can be that accurate when it comes to reading, glucose in your system. The price is a little steep for me anyways.
The only accurate glucose reading watches at this time require the use of a CGM like Dexcom. These readings are shared to your cell phone, then the watch via a sensor that attaches to your body.
from what i've seen from people reviewing the watches, it appears they have a HUGE delay in following the current trend of your blood sugar. like it takes a lot longer for the highs and lows to be readable in your surface skin the way the watches attempt to read the glucose.
Could the inaccurate numbers have to do with the extra time that it takes for glucose to reach the interstitial fluid? What if you waited a couple of minutes?
Hi Henry the software used for this product is by a company called H Band. If you search Noninvasive Blood Glucose Monitor in Amazon a few of these still pop up, with different watch names. Just be warned that every product that I’ve tested from H Band was very unreliable. I hope this helps.
Great question. It’s so hard to remember but if I had to guess. First snack was a breakfast bar. Lunch was Mexican food, and last meal was a protein with veggies and a small carbs like potatoes.

from what i've seen from people reviewing the watches, it appears they have a HUGE delay in following the current trend of your blood sugar. like it takes a lot longer for the highs and lows to be readable in your surface skin the way the watches attempt to read the glucose.
That's what I was wondering. I'd like to see a graph over time and see if the watch's readings catch up and how long the delay actually is.
Could the inaccurate numbers have to do with the extra time that it takes for glucose to reach the interstitial fluid? What if you waited a couple of minutes?
That’s a good guess. I’m not even sure what these lasers are intended to read. Blood, skin. Interstitial fluid. It’s all very unclear.
hi can you please tell me how is called this device?
Yes, the device name and links are in the video description
Could you please review the Wolfnotch Suga Pro?
Thank you for the suggestion. I'll definitely consider it once if it begins to gain a reputation for being a legit contender.
Thanks
thankyou sir
You’re very welcome
Can you please send me new link for the dido glucose watch
Hi Henry the software used for this product is by a company called H Band. If you search Noninvasive Blood Glucose Monitor in Amazon a few of these still pop up, with different watch names. Just be warned that every product that I’ve tested from H Band was very unreliable. I hope this helps.
8:15 84 … is the battery percentage of the watch 😅
Sir where I can buy that watch?
Please don't. It's expensive and isn't reliable for glucose readings.
typ3me, what was the first snack, then lunch and last meal?
Great question. It’s so hard to remember but if I had to guess. First snack was a breakfast bar. Lunch was Mexican food, and last meal was a protein with veggies and a small carbs like potatoes.
