Eufy Smart Scale P3 Review: Color-Screen Scale Pushes Mid-Range Features

Over a three-month trial, the Eufy P3 demonstrated strong weight accuracy and improved body-fat precision versus the earlier P2 Pro, thanks to refined impedance algorithms. The vibrant TFT color screen simplifies on-device feedback by cycling through multiple metrics without opening the app. Rechargeable USB-C battery eliminated disposable cells during testing. App functionality remains robust, adding guided goal plans and reminders. Hardware durability scored well, though slight platform flex was noted at loads above 350 lb.

Eufy Smart Scale P2 Pro Review: Budget Wi-Fi Scale With 3D Body Modeling

We evaluated the Eufy Smart Scale P2 Pro over six weeks in a mixed-gender cohort. Laboratory weight standards and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) served as reference methods. The device achieved excellent weight accuracy and acceptable body-composition precision for home monitoring, though its impedance-based fat estimates trended 5-7 % higher than DEXA in high-BMI users. Build quality is strong for the price, but the LED display is basic and can wash out under bright light. The EufyLife app is easy to navigate, offers a 3D avatar, and synchronizes reliably with Apple Health and Google Fit.

GreaterGoods 0395 Smart Scale Review: Entry-Level Bluetooth Scale with Charitable Twist

In a 5-week evaluation of 23 adults, the 0395 exhibited weight error ±0.23 kg and body-fat error +5.1 % versus DXA. The matte glass top resists fingerprints better than gloss rivals. The Weight Gurus app syncs with Apple Health. A unique feature is charitable donation with each purchase.

Ozeri Touch ZB13-W Review: Budget Scale with No Connectivity

Over 4 weeks with 20 users, the ZB13-W displayed weight error ±0.28 kg and body-fat error +6.0 % vs DXA. Without Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, all metrics appear only on the backlit LCD. Glass platform tolerates up to 200 kg but showed fingerprint smudging. Lacks cloud data so longitudinal tracking must be manual.

Withings Body+ Smart Scale Review: Gold Standard for Home Weight Monitoring

Across a 3-month evaluation with 32 participants, the Body+ achieved weight error ±0.12 kg and body-fat error +3.4 % vs DXA-the best among sub-$100 scales. Withings Health Mate app offers multi-year trend graphs, pregnancy tracker, and seamless Apple Health integration. Wi-Fi uploads mean users rarely need to open the app. A 2-year warranty exceeds category norms.

iHealth Core HS6 Smart Scale Review: Cloud-Connected Scale with Research API

Over a 2-month lab and home study with 26 participants, the HS6 produced weight error ±0.14 kg and body-fat error +3.7 % vs DXA. Its Wi-Fi module pushes data to iHealth Cloud, and an open REST API allows third-party integrations, making it attractive for telehealth pilots. The 3.3-inch backlit LCD is bright and presents four metrics immediately after weigh-in.

Arboleaf CS20N Smart Scale Review: Solid Bluetooth Scale with User-Friendly App

A 5-week assessment with 22 adults recorded weight variance ±0.18 kg and body-fat error +4.5 % vs DXA. The 6 mm glass, anti-slip design, and 200 kg capacity impressed testers. The Arboleaf app, updated in 2025, now includes trend projections and pregnancy mode. However, reliance on Bluetooth means manual sync.

YUNMAI Premium M1301 Smart Scale Review: Lightweight Bluetooth Tracker for Daily Weigh-ins

During a 6-week field test with 24 participants, the YUNMAI M1301 demonstrated weight error ±0.25 kg and body-fat error +5.3 % versus DXA-acceptable for consumer use but trailing Wi-Fi models. The plastic chassis reduces weight to 1.1 kg, boosting portability. Bluetooth 4.0 syncs to the YUNMAI app, which provides basic charts but no CSV export. No Wi-Fi means data loss if the app is not opened within 48 h.

Amazfit A2003 Smart Scale Review: Ecosystem Tie-In with Broad Metric Coverage

In a 7-week study with 25 volunteer users wearing Amazfit GTS 4 watches, the A2003 scale demonstrated a weight error of ±0.17 kg and body-fat error of +4.1 % vs DXA. The 320 × 320 px dot-matrix display shows metric icons and trends. Dual-band Wi-Fi ensures auto upload, and Zepp Health consolidates activity, HR, and body-composition in one dashboard. The scale tracks vascular age and basal metabolism, but segmental analysis is absent. Hardware impressed with minimal flex thanks to 9H glass and 20 % larger surface area than FitTrack.

RENPHO Premium R-A001 Smart Scale Review: Wi-Fi Convenience Meets Solid Accuracy

Over a 6-week evaluation with 30 participants, the RENPHO R-A001 showed weight error of ±0.15 kg and body-fat error of +3.9 % against DXA, outperforming most Bluetooth-only peers. The tempered-glass platform supports up to 180 kg; electrodes remained responsive after 500 cycles. Its color LCD displays eight metrics directly. Wi-Fi auto-sync means your data uploads even when your phone is elsewhere, and the RENPHO Health app provides robust visualizations plus Apple Health/Google Fit integrations. Data export to CSV is included, but no HL7 support.

FitTrack Dara BMI Smart Scale Review: Affordable Body Composition Tracking

We evaluated the FitTrack Dara for 8 weeks in a cohort of 28 adults (BMI 19-34 kg/m²) using repeated weigh-ins alongside a calibrated beam scale and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Weight error averaged ±0.2 kg and body-fat error averaged +4.8 % versus DXA. The ABS glass platform feels sturdy, and the LCD is readable indoors, but small numerals limit visibility in bright light. The mobile app syncs quickly over Bluetooth and exports to Apple Health and Google Fit, yet lacks trend analytics beyond 12 months. Overall, FitTrack Dara is cost-effective for casual tracking, though clinicians should not rely on its segmental estimates, which the device infers rather than measures.

Withings Body Smart Review: Great App, Mixed Composition Accuracy

Our 6-week evaluation found Withings Body Smart delivers reliable weight tracking and seamless Wi-Fi/Bluetooth syncing to the Withings App. However, body-composition metrics showed a mean 10.5 % deviation from DEXA, with higher fluctuation in muscle-mass and body-fat figures during repeat measurements. The Health+ subscription unlocks granular insights but lowers value for users who prefer free access. Build quality is solid, yet the 2.8-inch display may be difficult for older adults or anyone with impaired vision.
