Rank #2 in Best Smart Scales 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why 58 Metrics Means Nothing
Withings Body Smart Scale, 8 Metrics, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Withings Body Smart sits in the middle of this ranking on price and near the top on the specification. The listing describes a countertop body composition scale with a touchscreen display, a 180 kilogram maximum capacity and a fine 50 gram readout accuracy. Battery is listed as disposable AAA rather than rechargeable.
The two entries that separate it from the budget scales here are the materials and the connectivity: the body is listed as glass, metal, plastic and stainless steel rather than glass alone, and the data sync is described as over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth rather than Bluetooth only, so readings upload without your phone being present. Automatic user recognition is named among its features. At the time of collection it carried 38,920 ratings at 4.3 stars. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“UPDATE: 3 months later and after 2 software updates for the scale and 3 app updates, I am please to say that this device and app are working perfectly and as I had hoped. Now my body fat and BMI are actively being synced to the Apple Health app instead of being stuck in the app. My weight goes directly to Apple Health instead of via MyFitnessPal. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking to monitor their progress using smart devices.————————————————This product isn't as smooth and stream line as you would expect. It can be quite buggy and cumbersome when combining it with the Nokia Health Mate app. In a household of 3 people, it will either show an icon saying that it doesn't recognise you at all or it will ask you to let it know who you are by leaning left or right. On the upside to this, if you look through the app, it will let you know that a weighing was made but not assigned to someone, giving you the opportunity to assign it to your self thus triggering the device to identify you the next time. (hopefully)The symbols that pop up on on the device screen are not very helpful and there is no obvious guide to be found, so a lot of guess work is required.I almost decided to return the item when syncing it to the app for the first time didn't work. The issue was that you had to choose the correct product name in order to start the process. However, the actual device name didn't work and I had to select the name of the next model up.The app was recently updated, Jan 2018, and a few of its features are working now instead of giving zero as a weighing result.Overall, if you have the patience, it is a good product. I use it every morning after the gym and so far the data it is giving me is helpful.”
Verified purchase“The previous scale broke, hopefully not because of my weight. Being without a functioning bathroom scale for a few weeks has been both a blessing and a curse; especially if this Nokia Scale is telling my weight accurately!The setup for this scale was very straightforward. The weight readings seem fairly consistent and repeatable but the body fat percentage readings have a range of about 3-4% and I'm not entirely sure about the accuracy as I don't have anything to compare against. The readings sync automatically to the Nokia Health Mate app and it's also possible to connect the data to MyFitnessPal. It's quite easy to set it up to recognise other members of the family (using the app) and from thereon the Scale automatically recognises each of them when they step on.Purchased it for £52 as an Amazon Warehouse deal. Functions as advertised, looks great, and has solid build quality. Recommended.”
