Withings BodyFit gives you the Body Scan’s handle design for a lot less money
Withings has long offered a range of excellent smart scales with accurate results, privacy-focused features, and seamless Apple Health integration.
The BodyFit serves as a new mid-tier option that delivers advanced segmental body composition analysis without the clinical-grade price tag.
BodyFit’s standout feature is its integrated retractable handle, similar to the more expensive Withings Body Scan.
The new BodyFit includes eight electrodes with four in the handle and four in the base. These enable a full-spectrum, 6-zone body composition scan.
