Withings Smart Body Analyzer WS-50 review

Standard bathroom scales are so last decade. The Withings Smart Body Analyzer WS-50 bring things into the modern. These digital scales can measure not only your weight, but also body fat percentage, heart rate, air quality, temperature and then send it...

Very accurate for weight measure, Wi-Fi sync, user recognition, detailed number of measurements, looks quality, long-lasting AAA battery operation

Pricey, can fail to read on occasion, the odd muddled fat percentage reads, Bluetooth needed for setup but not ongoing operation, dust magnet

The Withings Smart Body Analyzer WS-50 not only looks cool, it's accurate and will benefit anyone at any level. Whether you just want to know your weight, or get more advanced with the full spectrum of reads that these scales are capable of then the...

Almost excellent

This is my second Withings scales and on the whole I am very pleased with it. It manages well on a carpet with the extra feet provided, syncs with my iPhone and tells me when it's going to rain outside! But I do prefer the previous version which...

Great idea - very poor performance

This scale claims to sync via bluetooth to your iphone/ipad seamlessley. This it fails to do! I've had the product 1 week, and had to re-pair the bluetooth 4 times.The scale is beautiful and when synced works a treat, but the whole idea was to step on...
