ResMed AirSense 10 vs AirSense 11: which auto CPAP should you buy?

What is the same

Therapy. Both are auto-adjusting CPAP (APAP) machines with ResMed's AutoSet algorithm, a 4–20 cm H₂O range, expiratory pressure relief (EPR), AutoRamp and a built-in heated humidifier. Night for night, your AHI and comfort will be the same on either machine. Masks and standard tubing are interchangeable, so a mask bought for one works on the other.

Data. Both have built-in cellular modems that upload nightly usage, leak and AHI to ResMed's AirView, which is what lets SleepEase check your therapy and adjust settings remotely. Both work with the myAir app.

What the AirSense 11 adds

A colour touchscreen replaces the dial-and-button interface. Bluetooth pairs the machine to your phone, and the myAir app's Personal Therapy Assistant walks you through mask fitting and your first nights on video. Care Check-In asks how you slept and nudges comfort settings. The body is about a fifth smaller and lighter, and marginally quieter.

None of this changes the pressure you receive. It changes how easy the first two weeks feel — and the first two weeks are when most people who abandon CPAP give up.

Price in Kerala

With SleepEase, the AirSense 10 AutoSet is ₹51,000 and the AirSense 11 AutoSet is ₹71,500, both with home delivery, setup and a 2-year warranty. Masks are quoted separately once we know your fit. See the CPAP machine price guide for how these compare with the wider market.

Who should buy which

Buy the AirSense 11 if you have never used CPAP, feel nervous about it, live alone and want app coaching, or simply want the newest model with the longest remaining product life.

Buy the AirSense 10 if you have used CPAP before (on rental or in hospital), want the most machine for the money, or are buying for a parent who prefers a physical dial to a touchscreen. It remains the most prescribed auto CPAP in the world for a reason.

Unsure? Rent an Auto CPAP for ₹2,999/month first — see rentals — and buy once you know therapy works for you.
