Secret is.. none of wyze products are made by them... new firmware from existing Xiaomi products.

They still work though.

Quite obvious but it is being shipped by Wyze and is a good product in which they endorsed to distribute. Also this product is highly rated and FDA approved.

Good thermometers are hard to find online right now and you could probably resell it for alot more on ebay. I am not doing this since I only need a good thermometer which could not be found locally. I wanted thermometer to be accurate and quick and this is perfect for kids and adults

how far does the thermometer have to be kept from forehead ?

I also wanted to add

When i placed my order a week ago my tracking number was uploaded within 48hours. This is not coming from China overseas and they have them on hand here in the USA.

One Inch in the center and it is instant. Once temp reads on the device it will vibrate to let you know it is finished. I believe if your temp is over normal human body temps it will give you a different indication .

Just FYI, this is the same price as it was when it was first announced that they would be selling it...

The manufacture's website has it for the same price after shipping as well.

Comes out to the same price as on the iHealth website once you factor in shipping (already factored in on Wyze).

They say these are not very good. It has to touch the forehead to get an accurate reading. Quick Google search and i'm sure you will find something on this.

So, this product is essentially the same as a Xiaomi thermometer like this, but at a higher price?

That's contradictory to the instructions:

Review from WYZE site: My wife is a registered nurse (RN) at a large hospital near where we live and she has been using this thermometer for a few days now both on herself at home as well as the other members of our family. Since she's an experienced nurse, she's in charge of our family's regular health and well-being. She's not a doctor and she knows when to refer to a doctor. She is very happy with this product and she said that it's very well made and accurate. She has used a lot of professional thermometers in her hospital and she said that she is impressed with this iHealth thermometer. Given the unprecedented issues that everyone is dealing with right now, she definitely prefers this no contact thermometer compared to other contact thermometers that we already had in our house. Now that we have this iHealth thermometer, it's the only thermometer she uses now and the other thermometers at our house are no longer being used at all. She also appreciates that it provides a quick subtle vibration to let you know when the temperature has been registered.

One helpful tip that will improve the consistency is that the location where you aim it when taking a temperature is very important. The documentation (see highlighted section in my attached photo) shows that you need to point it at the center of the forehead (brush away any hair so it's pointing at skin only) and the other key part is that it needs to be about an inch away from the forehead. The documentation recommends 'Aim the thermometer probe at the center of the forehead and keep the probe 1.18 inches (3cm) away from the forehead (the optimal distance is about the width of an adult's index finger). Do not touch the forehead with the probe.' If you follow these important guidelines, the consistency should be much better. If you look through the reviews on Amazon for this same exact product, you will see many people complaining about inconsistencies with the temperature and it appears that many are not carefully following the guidelines above.

Stay safe and healthy.
