Not many people buy bathroom scales because they like to look at their weight – it's more likely they invest in one because they want to lose weight or build muscle. If it's the former, seeing the lack of progress at the beginning of your weight loss journey can be disheartening. Withings' latest smart scale, the Body Smart, tried to tackle this issue by not showing your weight, at least not on the unit itself. And it costs a quarter as much as the company's best bathroom scale, the Body Scan.
Better still, the Body Smart can track almost all the features of its more advanced sibling, including heart rate and weight (in 50-gram increments), and provides insights on a number of health metrics such as BMR, visceral fat, etc. Body Smart also provides cardiovascular measurements and insights by tracking standing heart rates.
