>This will be the first ECG product available over the counter to customers.

The AliveCor Kardia has been available for a while. I got one for a family member with atrial fibrillation issues and it works really well and sticks on the back of their cell phone.

I don't know why they lie in their presentations. There are at least 100 consumer ECG monitors/trackers on the market.

The presentations aren't exactly off the cuff, that shit is vetted by two dozen lawyers.

Apple doesn't 'lie'. They might stretch and embellish the truth or use very specific phrasing, but they don't lie.

This seems like needlessly trying to take an inch. Apple says statements which the average person with a fully array of facts would call untrue i.e. a lie.

The fact that a lawyer somewhere can find a loophole or just enough edge for doubt, doesn't within itself disprove that. It is common tongue, common sense, a lie, a untruth, factually incorrect, etc.
