Withings announces new Body Scan smart scale with integrated ECG

Withings Body Scan

Last updated

Ahead of CES 2022, the Withings Body Scan has debuted, allowing users to monitor segmental body composition, heart rate, and vascular age with Apple Health integrations.

The all-new Body Scan scale features a tempered glass platform and a retractable handle used for administering the 6-lead ECG. There are four weight sensors and 14 ITO electrodes within the platform as well as an additional set of stainless steel electrodes within the handle.

Withings says the battery will last users an entire year with typical use and the onboard 3.2-inch display will display results instantly, as well as being synced with the Withings app and Apple Health.

"With Body Scan, we will turn the morning weigh-in into a sophisticated home health check with access to holistic health data and personal health programs created by medical professionals," said Mathieu Letombe, Withings CEO. "We will empower our users with the ability to take meaningful actions based on medical-grade data, adding a new dimension to ongoing lifestyle and chronic condition management through the ultimate in-home health experience."

The new Body Scan will launch in the second half of 2022, pending CE/FDA clearance, for 299.95. There will be white and black colorways and will come with a free three-month subscription to Withings health plan.

Their current scales do pretty much most of this for a bit less.

Worthless. I have a model without this ECG feature, and for most things it's just guessing statistics based on very few parameters. For example, body fat level is based on just current going through your feet instead of your hands, which make it a very inaccurate measurement. It's just winging results based on your age and predefined length, rather than really measuring things. Just look in the mirror to judge how fat/lean you are :)
AppleInsider, please fix your bug that has been there for years now, where I post a comment on the homepage, and the browser hangs and it is loading the forum inside an iFrame rather than submitting the comment.

I'm actually happy about the bug because I can work around it but it makes some people so frustrated it prevents them from posting their comments, resulting in a boost to the number of people who read my own comments.
