Its exclusive advantages include:

Intelligent Dietary Response: Equipped with the world's only Food Detection™ technology‡, it can automatically identify blood glucose rising trends and adjust insulin infusion in real time. Even if patients occasionally forget pre-meal injections or underestimate carbohydrate intake, it can still help them maintain target blood glucose levels for a longer period.

New Standard for Precise Blood Sugar Control: Adopting a "targeted therapy" strategy, supporting flexible blood glucose target settings as low as 100mg/dL, combined with adaptive algorithms to simulate physiological blood glucose fluctuations in healthy individuals.

Proven Excellent Efficacy: Global real-world data shows that, under optimized settings (2-hour active insulin time + 100 mg/dL target value), users' Time in Range (TIR) consistently exceeds the international standard of 70%.

Breakthrough in Long-Acting Infusion: Used in conjunction with the world's only infusion set that can be continuously worn for 7 days, requiring replacement only once a week, reducing injection frequency by 96% compared to traditional multiple daily injections.
