The Lava Pulse is a feature phone with a built in heart rate and blood pressure sensor

20 August 2020
Most smart bands have an HR sensor, but very few can measure your blood pressure. There are even fewer phones with this feature.

If you know it's inaccurate, you can't rely on it. It's like having a broken weight scale, except blood pressure is more critical since there's very minute differences between stages of hypertension, and your medication would reflect that.

    A welcome feature. In the name of health every medical mafia company won't accept these innovations. Over the Time this devices will get it right.

        This is a gimmick through and through. When it comes to diagnosing and monitoring hypertension, you don't want to rely on something that isn't accurate. This, along with the other smartwatches that measure at the wrist, won't ever be certified for medical use. And I hope the marketing for this phone reflects that fact as well.

          Good job! These at least can be useful if the sensors are tested many times and are working fine. I hope we will see these things in high-end phones as well, and a thermometer would be also a good idea, and a Co sensor if there is some gas leaking somewhere this could save a mans life!

            Syerin, 20 Aug 2020Wouldn't they sell more if this thing is everything it... moreIt is a phone. It has an antenna which connects to cell towers. It has full telephony integration allowing you to call family, friends and emergency services.

              If built in heart rate and blood pressure sensor work very well then this is better than anything else around 10k for village market in India

                    Wouldn't they sell more if this thing is everything it is but a phone?
