Body Comp - Scale for Body Weight and Complete Body Analysis, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Scale with Color Screen, Digital Scale with Accurate Visceral Fat, Heart Heath - Compatible with Apple Health

Great set of scales. They look smart and have a nice colour screen. I’m not sure how accurate they are with muscle and fat %, but they allow me to see if I’m gaining or losing weight and that’s the main thing. Works well with Apple Health and the Withings app.

I recently purchased the Withings Body Comp smart scale (£189), positioned between their entry-level Body Smart (£79) and premium Body Scan (£300). After about two days of use, I can confidently share my experience with this sleek but pricey health gadget. First impressions are impressive - the packaging rivals Apple's attention to detail, with a beautiful black glass finish. However, be warned: this surface is a fingerprint and water splash magnet, especially in bathroom environments. While aesthetically pleasing, it's primarily a functional device. NOTE - You need a smartphone to use this scale - at least for initial setup. It's not a simple 'step on and go' device like your typical mechanical bath scale. You use the Withings App on your phone to set up a 'profile' - which recognises your typical weight, blood pressure, body mass, etc. CRUCIAL SETUP TIP: If you're using this on a medium or thick pile carpet or rug, the included plastic feet are absolutely essential. Without them, readings can be off by up to 15kg! If using it on a hard floor, no need to use the plastic legs. Also, note that this scale only works with older, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks using WPA2 security - no 5GHz support. This should not generally be of concern to you though, as most home internet have 2.4Ghz wi-fi. Because the scale has no keyboard (just a push/confirm button on the back) setup requires generating a QR code through your phone app, which might challenge less tech-savvy users. Bluetooth connection is available as a simpler alternative. To setup a profile, basically: Download the Withings Health Mate app from Apple App Store or Google Play Store, create an account, and then follow the on-screen prompts to pair your scale and enter your personal information. Your Scale will show a qr code on its display, Scan that qr code with your phone app, and boom ! - you're registered! It sounds a bit of a palava, but it's really not so bad and can be done in minutes. CRUCIAL TIP TWO: KEEP STILL - When weighing yourself, you have to firmly and evenly step on the scale, keep your balance/weight distribution (don't lean on one fit/hand on hips) and allow for the scale to settle. Do not move or jiggle about. It will eventually find your 'typical' weight, and tie it with your profile/name you setup initially. If you can, do not wear (heavy) jogging sweatpants, socks, or unnecessary clothing - the scales are that sensitive. PRACTICAL USAGE: The scale runs on four AAA batteries - slightly disappointing given the price point, I would have expected USB charging in this day and age. But still, the batteries last long enough (over 12 months) so no complaints there. The only thing is, old batteries left in devices for months on end can leak. Anyway, once configured, the measurements are impressively accurate, matching readings from my GP's office scales. The scale tracks comprehensive metrics including weight, BMI, body fat percentage, muscle mass, bone density, and even vascular age - again, this could be overkill, but it's luxury to have. Health tracking integration is seamless, especially with Apple Health. The app interface is notably superior to competitors like Omron Evolve. Multiple user profiles (up to 8) are automatically recognised - when a user steps on the scale, it will auto-detect that persons particular health 'footprint' - so it recognises me at 110kg, when my daughter steps on it, it recognises her at 45kg. Very useful. But if you do something non-standard - like try to weigh a suitcase, it will measure it, but not register that particular weight reading to a profile. The scale even displays weather and air quality (though these features feel somewhat superfluous). The 'Eyes-Closed Mode' is a thoughtful accessibility feature that provides audio feedback through your smartphone when weighing yourself. This is particularly useful for those with 'white-coat syndrome' who get fearful about it showing them their not making gains, or for visually impaired users or anyone who might have difficulty reading the scale's display in low-light bathroom conditions. The measurements are clearly spoken, eliminating the need to look down at the display while maintaining balance on the scale. Overall, a neat little feature that helps reduce weigh-in anxiety by allowing users to focus on maintaining proper posture on the scale without being immediately confronted by visual readings. SUMMARY Value Assessment: At £189 (bought in Jan 2025), it's undeniably expensive for a scale. However, if you're serious about health tracking and appreciate detailed metrics, it's a worthy investment. It does actually make you use it and engage more, which actually works to get you into the mindset of improving your health! The build quality is excellent, measurements are reliable, and the app ecosystem is robust. Just be prepared for some initial setup hurdles. PROS: - Accurate measurements compared to medical readings - Comprehensive body composition analysis (weight, fat%, muscle mass, bone mass) - Excellent app integration with Apple Health - Multiple user recognition - Clean, premium design - Long battery life (12 months) CONS: - Expensive at £189 - Wi-Fi connectivity limitations (2.4GHz only, WPA2) - Battery-powered (4 AAA) instead of USB charging - Setup can be technical - Shows fingerprints easily VERDICT: A premium smart scale that delivers on its promises but at a premium price. While not for everyone, it's a solid choice for health enthusiasts who will regularly use its advanced features. 4/5 stars - losing one star for the price point and setup complexity. UPDATE: 4 MONTHS LATER, I am still using it, and it still functions as beautifully as ever. Water splash marks can be easily wiped off, leaving it looking just as shiny brand new. If anything, the price i've paid for this motivated me to really use it and get the most out of it - which has resulted in me seeing a continuous trend of weight loss as I'm actively working on my health and using this expensive item every few days or so to get the most out of spending so much on this thing!. So psychologically, this has actually helped and motivated me to lose weight. All in all, i'd say - If you're serious about losing weight and forking out so much on this, it will eventually be worth it.

Really nice to start the day, gives you the weather forecast!!!!... Apart from many other information!!!

Excellent set of scales, easy to set up and use, good monitoring app also

Superb for monitoring body weight and cardiovascular measurements

AVOID AVOID AVOID - don't work as described, erratic and SHOCKING CUSTOMER SERVICE. Have used other WITHINGS scales no problems. These just give me error messages. Customer services ran me around for about 3 months saying it was my fault and wouldn't help. Escalated to Amazon customer service, still unresolved. Would have been better buying mechanical scales for 1/10th of the price!

Pricey but nice and provides good information linking to the free app. Price of additional app features is high so I just stick with the free information.

Got it for my mother whose old Fitbit Aria stopped syncing due to an outdated network standard. She absolutely loved it, can't stop talking about its varied features (weather, nerve health etc.) The set up was easy and the fact that the app supports languages is a big plus. Syncing with apple health also helped her a lot. So far so good.

The Withings Body Comp is an outstanding smart scale that offers much more than just weight tracking. It provides detailed body composition analysis, including fat mass, muscle mass, bone mass, and even visceral fat. One of its standout features is nerve health assessment, which is rare in smart scales. The setup is simple, and the scale syncs seamlessly with the Withings Health Mate app, giving you easy access to your health stats over time. The measurements are accurate and consistent, making it a reliable tool for anyone serious about tracking their fitness and overall well-being. Another big plus is the heart health tracking, which includes pulse wave velocity (PWV) to assess arterial health. If you're looking for a premium, data-rich scale that goes beyond basic weight measurements, the Withings Body Comp is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!
