"Wyze has announced its first smart scale that can capture body metric data for your arms, legs, and torso individually using a retractable handle. Wyze's smart scales have traditionally been budget-friendly alternatives to offerings from competitors like Withings, whose entry-level Body Smart scale now starts at $129.95. The new Ultra BodyScan is Wyze's most expensive smart scale at $119.98, but it offers similar functionality to the $499.95 Withings Body Scan that also features a handle."
"Where the Wyze Scale Ultra BodyScan trails the more expensive Withings Body Scan is with heart metrics. Both scales can measure your heart rate during a weigh-in, but Withings goes much further with that data. Its Body Scan scale provides EKG recordings that can be shared with a doctor, assessments of your cardiovascular health and your vascular age, and warnings about dangerous heart arrhythmias like A-fib if detected."
"Like the cheaper $50 Wyze Scale Ultra that debuted last November, the new Ultra BodyScan has a 4.3-inch customizable color screen that can display detailed breakdowns of data for up to eight users, including how measurements have changed over time. But the scale also has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for sharing that data to Wyze's mobile app, or the fitness apps from Google and Apple."
Wyze's Ultra BodyScan is a $119.98 smart scale that captures segmental body metrics via a retractable handle and eight electrodes, enabling more accurate bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). The scale measures 13 composition metrics including weight, body fat percentage, BMI, muscle weight, bone mass, and body water percentage, and offers per-limb and torso breakdowns. It features a 4.3-inch customizable color screen, supports up to eight users, and syncs via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with Wyze's app and Apple/Google fitness apps. Four AAA batteries power the unit for up to nine months. The scale lacks advanced heart diagnostics such as EKG recordings and vascular assessments found on higher-end rivals.
