It’s a similar shape to the Contour Next Link meters, although lighter as it doesn’t have an internal rechargeable battery (it uses two CR2032 cells instead).

To access this, double-tap the meter button before inserting the strip (this is not in the manual for some reason!). Has a white LED port light to help with late-night testing.The meter is also supported by apps such as xDrip+. Has Bluetooth to upload results to the Contour Diabetes phone app.According to Ascensia’s own testing and design, the accuracy in this meter is slightly improved over even the other Contour Next meters!
They performed well in my own Do you trust your meter? testing. Uses the Contour Next strips, which are renowned for accuracy.To recap, this is a very nice blood glucose meter. The Bayer name has hung around in Australia for a while, but that is changing now. But after a corporate merger in 2016 Bayer was re-branded as Ascensia. These have carried the Bayer brand, and the Contour Next BG strips still mention Bayer on the box. Many of us are familiar with other Contour Next meters, particularly the Contour Next Link meters bundled with Medtronic insulin pumps.
I’m already familiar with the meter, but as of now it’s officially supplied and supported here.
There was a bit of #OzDSMS chatter on Twitter during the summit. This week in Adelaide at their Diabetes Social Media Summit, Ascensia introduced the Contour Next One meter. I pointed out that I’d had to obtain my Contour Next One meters from Germany and the US because it hasn’t been released in Australia. One is the Accu-Chek Guide, and the other is the Contour Next One. Last week I wrote about my favourite BG meters, and briefly described the two blood glucose meters I use as my standard tools.
