At CES 2025, Withings has made connected blood pressure monitors a lot easier to use, more reassuring, and more inclusive than ever with the introduction of the BPM Vision. How? In addition to new hardware features, it has the option to add an unusual service that’s like having your own private cardiologist on hand, ready to check over your results and warn you about possible heart arrhythmias.

Unlike many blood pressure monitors, the BPM Vision is a friendly and modern-looking device. On the front is a high-resolution color screen that shows your blood pressure results, as well as tutorials on how to use it properly, plus reminders about when to take a reading. Additionally, using Withings’ AI will show immediate, easy-to-understand feedback and insights. There’s an on/off button and three large main buttons next to the screen. The functionality of each is clearly indicated on the product’s screen, making it simple to use.

Withings’ existing BPM Connect blood pressure monitor has a fairly standard adjustable cuff, but to make the BPM Vision suitable for more people, the company will make it with two different cuff sizes. Purchase the BPM Vision from Withings’ website, and you’ll have the option of a cuff measuring between nine and 17 inches or between 16 and 20 inches. The BPM Vision connects to Wi-Fi and syncs its data with an app on your phone. It has the capacity to track data from eight different people, plus the battery should last for up to six months. It comes in a handy travel case.

Where is the private cardiologist? If you subscribe to the Withings+ service, the BPM Vision will come with a feature called Cardio Check-Up, where within 24 hours of making a request, you’ll be connected to a certified health care professional who will analyze your data and watch for signs of more than 10 different heart arrhythmias. Other services that come with Cardio Check-Up include a quarterly check-up, no-appointment-required reviews, and no need to visit a clinic as it’s all performed through the app. Cardio Check-Up also works with other Withings health products, including the ScanWatch 2 smartwatch.

The BPM Vision is being certified by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is expected to be ready for sale in the U.S. in April 2025. It will cost $130. The Cardio Check-Up service will be operated by Heartbeat Health in the U.S. and is part of the $100 annual Withings+ subscription service.

This crazy smart mirror will tell you who’s the healthiest of them all
The Withings Omnia smart mirror concept.

Withings’ futuristic Omnia mirror will tell you everything you need to know about your health and well-being, and probably some things you'd rather ignore right after the recent festive period, just by standing in front of it. It is aimed at cleverly bringing together its own data with information collected from Withings’ range of connected health devices, such as the Withings ScanWatch 2 smartwatch, to provide what it calls a “360-degree view of your vital indicators.”

Omnia collates an impressive 60 different health and fitness parameters, with the 360-degree part of the explanation coming from scans performed by the connected base, other Withings products, and information collected from other sources. Data ranges from your body composition and weight to sleep quality and lung capacity, and it’s all presented on the mirror itself — right in front of you.

This new Belkin accessory transforms your iPhone into a digital camera
The Belkin Stage PowerGrip attached to an iPhone.

The iPhone has a powerful camera built-in, but what if you could turn it into a proper digital camera that can keep you snapping Ansel Adams-worthy pictures all day long? Belkin's newest accessory promises to do just that, and we really hope it works. The Stage Power Grip is a more ergonomically designed accessory that helps you take great shots while reducing shake, and it's just been announced at CES 2025.

Belkin hopes to release the Stage Power Grip sometime in May, but that date isn't set in stone (nor is the price). It functions as both a button to take pictures and a grip to help you keep a steady hand. It attaches to your iPhone via MagSafe and includes a 10,000mAh power bank, too. There's also a built-in USB-C cable for charging other devices (as well as your iPhone, if needed).

An Apple insider says a new iPad is coming in spring 2025. Here’s what we know

Apple did not release any new iPads in 2023. However, this year marked a significant change with the introduction of all-new versions of the iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro. Notably absent from this list is the standard iPad, which hasn't been updated in nearly three years. This is expected to change in the coming months. According to MacRumors, Apple plans to release an updated iPad alongside the iPhone SE 4 in spring 2025.

While limited information about the upcoming iPad is available, several details have emerged in recent months. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the new tablet is expected to support Apple Intelligence, just like all iPads released in 2024 do. This support suggests that the 11th-generation iPad will likely have a newer A-series chip and at least 8GB of RAM.
