Withings Body Scan smart scales review

The WIthings Body Scan is likely the most advanced set of scales ever made, and they do a fantastic job. But the price is likely overwhelming for many people.

  • Plenty. ofclear info on the nice display

Cons

  • The price
  • Getting ECG readings can be tough

I’ve been weighing myself daily for the past two months as part of my review of the Withings Body Scan health station. It’s by far the most advanced set of scales I’ve ever used, and is likely overkill for many people.

But if you want a detailed breakdown of your health and wellbeing, then the Body Scan will definitely help you collect the data.

The fact it seamlessly integrates with Apple Health is a plus, but more useful is when it connects in with the Withings health ecosystem. 

The biggest hurdle with the Body Scan is its price, which at $799 RRP is about 40x the price of a basic set of scales from Kmart.

So it’s not for everyone. But price aside, I can’t really fault it for the work it does.
