Watch out,Crazy Sex Apple Watch. You've got some unlikely competition.

Asus, maker of one of our preferred gaming laptops, just debuted the VivoWatch 6 AERO, the first smartwatch to measure both blood pressure and ECG.

While ECG monitoring to detect atrial fibrillation is nothing new to smartwatches (it's been available in Apple Watches since Series 4), Asus's VivoWatch 6 AERO also delivers blood pressure sensors. Previously, getting a blood pressure measurement required the old school cuff around the arm, but the VivoWatch measures blood pressure through wristband sensors. It's a less conspicuous development for those suffering from hypertension or hypotension, who might need round-the-clock blood pressure monitoring.

While a new Apple Watch is expected later this year, there's no word if it will feature blood pressure monitoring.

At 27 grams, it's a lightweight smartwatch, weighing three grams less than the smallest Apple Watch model. It has a 1.1-inch AMOLED display and will display all of your health data with the press of a finger. In addition to its innovation in blood pressure monitoring, it tracks step count, heart rate, blood oxygen, calories, and sleep tracking. Lastly, it tracks activity utilizing a built-in GPS and has a 5 ATM water resistance rating.

Like other smartwatches, the Asus VivoWatch 6 AERO also offers message and call notifications, a timer, sedentary reminders, and a remote camera control. Plus, with Asus's HealthConnect App, you can access more in-depth displays of your health data.

So far, Asus hasn't announced a release date or price for the Asus VivoWatch 6 AERO.
