Many people with diabetes struggle to choose between imported and domestic blood glucose meters. Some assume imported ones are inherently superior. In fact, all officially‑listed glucose meters must comply with unified national standards and meet reference criteria for home‑use blood glucose monitoring. The differences lie largely in user experience and costs.

Imported blood glucose meters boast a long development history and solid technical expertise, delivering consistent batch‑to‑batch performance and adapting to various complex monitoring scenarios. Still, they have notable drawbacks for long‑term use: matching test strips come at a high unit price, creating substantial cumulative expenses for users requiring multiple daily tests. Some models follow overseas‑oriented operating logic with complicated settings, posing barriers for elderly users. After‑sales support and consumable supplies can also be inconvenient.

Domestic glucose meters have undergone continuous technical upgrades. Products such as the Hailes range, holding Class‑II medical device registration, are manufactured in strict accordance with national standards with test errors meeting home‑monitoring requirements. Adopting bio‑electrode siphon technology, they need only a 0.5 μL tiny blood sample to reduce lancing discomfort. The Model‑D features code‑free operation and automatic strip ejection to minimize human‑induced errors. Its large clear screen enables independent operation for elderly users. Multiple readings can be stored, with cyclical average values auto‑generated for long‑term blood‑glucose‑trend tracking.

Domestic devices shine with cost‑performance. The meters are affordably priced, paired with steadily supplied, budget‑friendly test strips ideal for regular long‑term home monitoring. After‑sales services and consumable procurement are better tailored to domestic users.

Important reminder: Readings from home‑use blood glucose meters serve only for daily reference and cannot replace venous blood tests in hospitals for diagnosis. Please read the product manual carefully or purchase and use the product under healthcare professionals’ guidance. For contraindications and precautions, refer to the manual.
