With 9 from my second 10 accepted.
Just one was rejected with "Potential trademark infrigement" reason... and as usual, I'm perplexed where?
Writings on device are "pulse", "dia", "sis".
"OK RANGE" also is not a trademark.
Any ideas?

Specific text and fonts is enough for a manufacturer to recognise their product. SS takes the safe side and rejects anything that could potentially drag them and you to court.

Congrats.

And it is easily recognizable to the manufacturer.

Congrats on your acceptance! And welcome to the zoo.

My guess on the trademark rejection is the logo for the London Underground. (Actually, the reviewer might think that's a logo, but certainly it's more likely they rejected it for the product design.)

Actually the symbol is nothing more than the indicator that should be within the range of the red band on the arm band.
My guess is that the reviewer is younger and has no experience with these devices and did not know that.
Remove all writing and resubmit.

Oh, and congrats!

It is just cheap noname korean device... what you mean about design? :)

I will erase all writings, signs and decorations and resubmit. Will see.

You will be surprised by what you know.When you see someone asking for advice chances are it will be something like when you asked and now know how to fix or change things.
Even giving words of support can be a big help
