WithingsBody Smart - Accurate Scale for Body Weight and Fat Percentage, Body Composition Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Weight Scale, Baby Weight Scale, Smart Scale Apple Health Compatible, Bathroom Scale

I’ve only been using the WITHINGS Body Smart Scale for a week, and I’m already building an entire training and nutrition strategy around the data it gives me.This isn’t just a weight tracker. It gives you body fat, muscle mass, water %, metabolic age, and more — and it syncs cleanly via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. What makes it next-level for me is that I’m feeding the biometric data into an AI analysis tool to create a precision fitness and diet plan. It’s like turning your bathroom scale into a lab.But let’s be honest — it’s not perfect. The first time I stepped on it, it took four tries to get a clean reading. You have to stand completely still, which isn’t as effortless as it sounds. Once you get used to it, it’s fine — but it’s worth noting for anyone with balance issues or less patience.What I Love:• Tons of biometric data — not just weight• Syncs with Apple Health and works flawlessly with apps• AI-compatible — I use the data to optimize my health stack• Tracks trends over time, not just day-to-day spikes• Looks clean and modern in any bathroomWhat Could Be Better:• Takes a few tries to calibrate on your first weigh-in• Sensitive to movement — don’t shift your feet mid-readFinal Word:If you’re serious about understanding your body, this scale is absolutely worth it. It’s more than just numbers — it’s data you can act on. Whether you’re using it like I am, or just watching trends in Apple Health, this is a solid foundation for making smarter health decisions.

Let me start with the bad - the really bad for some. The body fat percentage reading is terrible. That said, I have found this to be true of any scale I have used. From what I understand the more muscular you are the less accurate the reading if using electrical impedance (if that is the correct term). I am 6' and 220lbs with a 34" waist. I workout 6 days a week with about 3 hours of HIIT training and around 10 hours of lower heart rate endurance work. I am fairly fit.. The scale says I am at almost 30% body fat while calipers have me at around 15%. I sink like a rock with a full breath in the water - treading water sucks. In truth, I don't really care that much and the reading can be blanked so you don't have to see body fat%. I am interested in more medically appropriate measures like blood pressure and blood tests. I would also add that body fat readings fluctuate wildly. In two days, I had readings 4% apart. Pretty sure I did not lose 9lbs of fat in a day. I blanked out the reading and use waist measurements and the like instead - the same as any other scale I have ever used.The good:Set up was a breeze. I doubt it took 5 minutes to set up everything including linking to apple health and other apps I use.It is accurate, or at least consistent. I don't really care if I am 220 or 225 as long as the readings are consistent from day to day. I am interested in the trend. That said the weight is consistent with other scales. Our last scale fluctuated almost 5 lbs on my wife in just a few minutes. That did not go over well.I have read about problems with the app but I don't use it. It simply passes data on to other apps I use. So far it has worked great. I use apple health as a portal to other apps. The Withings app had no problem connecting. I weigh myself in the morning and the information is instantly passed on to the appropriate apps that keep track of working out, steps, heart rate and so forth. Only need weight from the scale.Price may be an issue for some. For what I use this scale for I am sure I could have found something cheaper that works fine. I just did not want to do all the research and this scale was recommended by people I trust.Any issues I have with this scale are not exclusive to it. Measures such as BMI are just plain ridiculous. Every powerlifter out there is extremely obese according to the BMI index. Health is pretty individual and these kinds of readings seem to feed into paranoia as much as provide useful information. Other than weight I am not convinced scales like this provide as much useful information as the companies would like us to believe.

I really like this scale a lot. I did a bunch of reading and there are comments about the scale being inaccurate but that the scale is consistent, so tracking this still remains true. I agree with this (and my scale is accurate). The set up is easy and and the interface easy to use. Very happy to add this to my wellness improvement journey. Very pleased. Price is is great and the scale is jazzy looking (for a scale).
