“I like the old monitor better for these reasons:
1) New Strips are too cumbersome to deal with and adds time to the process of taking a reading. Also adds more waste by each package to open.
2) No indication (like the orange dot on the old lancet) on if you’ve properly set up the lancet.
3) Harder to insert the strips than before. And harder to release. I don’t like the “pop out” mechanism.
I do like that we can sync to app without inserting the Bluetooth connector though.”
“Love not having to use my usb connector to upload my readings on to my phone. This is so much better. The only thing that I find is hard is opening the foil wrapper for the strips but overall I love this meter. It set up its self and connected to my app on my phone. Just phenomenal.”
“I have a hard time getting my strips open. I took my glucose reading 3 times back to back and got three different reading 123 then 88 then 72. ????? I never had a reading of 123. I don’t like the new finger sticker. I’m glad I kept the old one.”
“The meter seems pretty comparable to my last one, but the new strips in the individual pouches are really annoying and produce more waste. Please put the strips back in the containers!”
