Withings Body Smart Wi-Fi Body Composition Scale
Product Information, Not A Review
Quick Specs
What Stands Out
What To Check
The Body Smart is Withings' body composition scale: step on, and weight, body composition and a standing heart rate land in the app on their own. It carries an Amazon's Choice badge and sits among the stronger sellers in bathroom scales, which is rare for a scale at this level of build.
It is the one on this shelf built for a house rather than one person. Eight profiles means the whole family steps on the same piece of glass, Baby Mode weighs a squirming toddler by holding him, and Athlete Mode adjusts the algorithm instead of treating a heavier, more muscular build like everyone else.
The Numbers That Matter
Within 50 g. That is the weight accuracy Withings claims for its Precision Technology, and weight is the number on this scale worth trusting most.
Wi-Fi, not Bluetooth only. The reading syncs whether or not your phone came into the bathroom with you. Step on, read the glass, walk away.
Up to 8 users. Enough for the family plus a guest, and the scale sorts out who is standing on it.
One month of Withings+. Every scale comes with a trial of the paid tier. After that the free app still holds your history, but expect to be asked about the upgrade.
| Spec | What it decides |
|---|---|
| 50 g weight accuracy | Whether a small change over a week means anything |
| Wi-Fi or Bluetooth | If the phone has to be in the bathroom |
| Color display on the scale | Whether you unlock anything to see the number |
| Up to 8 users | How many people can share one scale |
| Athlete Mode | How the body composition math treats a lifter |
Who It Is For
The dad tracking a trend line, not chasing a lab number. Read body composition as direction over weeks rather than a measurement, because foot to foot impedance moves with hydration and timing. If you want the same idea at the budget end, the Etekcity Smart Scale and the Renpho Elis 1 cover it for less. For the number a doctor actually wants to see, look at the Omron Silver blood pressure monitor, and for sleep and recovery on the wrist there is the Garmin vivoactive 5.

The Short Version
The Body Smart is the scale on this shelf a coach could hand a client without a lecture about the app. Wi-Fi sync, a readable screen, Athlete Mode for people who lift and eight profiles for a family bathroom. The catch is the Withings account and the upgrade prompts that come with it.
