If you’re diabetic, you may have to keep a tab on your blood glucose levels regularly. However, traditional methods of measuring sugar levels are intrusive, and you must prick yourself every time to get a reading. Doing this every day or even multiple times a day can be painful. Thankfully, diabetic patients can buy the best smartwatches with a blood sugar monitor mentioned below to gauge their health seamlessly.

If you want a basic smartwatch to track your blood sugar levels, the TK12 is the way to go. While its UI doesn’t inspire confidence, it makes up for it with plenty of health monitoring features. Along with measuring blood glucose, the TK12 offers blood pressure monitoring and ECG support, making it a complete package for monitoring your health.
Note that apart from the key features, the smartwatch’s ‘smart’ abilities leave something to be desired. For instance, the watch doesn’t ship with many built-in watch faces. You will also miss out on some common features like a remote camera shutter that is available with much more affordable smartwatches.

The single biggest improvement the KS01 smartwatch brings over the TK12 is an IP rating. Thanks to the IP67 rating, you can use the KS01 smartwatch in the pool or while showering. The rest of the features are more or less similar. Regarding design, the KS01 smartwatch has a boxier look than the TK12.
We feel the TK12 looks more polished, while the KS01 has an industrial look. As for the health features, the KS01 also gets everything you need to keep a tab on your vitals. There’s a PPG sensor for glucose monitoring, and the watch can also give you insights into your ECG and blood pressure. It also has an NFC chip that can be used for contactless payments or commuting.

One key factor in picking up IntelliBP’s smartwatch is its accuracy and precision. While blood sugar levels are measured the same way, the IntelliBP smartwatch reports the most accurate ECG thanks to physical leads that go onto your body.
Like an ECG machine, the IntelliBP smartwatch connects to an external probe. This probe then plugs into a chest sticker that needs to be placed on your chest. As a result, you get a more accurate reading than a standard smartwatch that only measures ECG on your wrist. The IntelliBP smartwatch then uses this data to analyze blood glucose levels better sincethey’re related.

Undoubtedly, the Huawei Watch 4 Pro is the best standalone smartwatch among all the other options on this list. That said, unlike all the other smartwatches mentioned above, the Huawei Watch 4 Pro doesn’t have a blood sugar monitoring sensor. Instead, it uses a workaround to estimate your glucose levels.
Huawei’s ‘hyperglycemic risk assessment’ feature measures ten vital signs of increased blood sugar levels within 60 seconds. However, the watch does not give you a reading of your blood sugar levels. Instead, it notifies you of a possible fluctuation in your blood sugar levels whenever it detects something abnormal. There’s no official word on how Huawei is pulling this off, so if you need a reliable smartwatch to measure blood sugar levels, we recommend picking up any of the alternatives mentioned above.
