Tom's Guide's best premium smart scale: a handlebar scale with a 6-lead ECG, segmental body composition and 60 biomarkers. It costs $599.95, works best with a $99/year subscription, and some features (Glucose Resilience, Diabetes Risk Score) weren't live in testing. Body-fat readings also varied over the first five weigh-ins.
Subscription: Optional: Withings+ is $99/year (first three months free) and unlocks BodyPath, Health Trajectory scores and cardiologist ECG reviews (Tom's Guide)
Top complaints
- Very expensive, plus a subscription
Tom's Guide lists the $599 price and the $99/year subscription as its cons, saying casual users will find it not worth it.

Glucose Resilience and the Diabetes Risk Score weren't available in testing; Withings told Tom's Guide that Glucose Resilience would roll out before the end of 2026.
Source: Tom's Guide review - Body numbers still settling
Over five measurements, Tom's Guide saw body fat swing between 6.8% and 8.7% and muscle mass between 88.6% and 86.7%, and says it's too early to put hard faith in the numbers. It also notes the glass shows smudges and dust.

What experts say
- Tom's Guide: Best premium smart scale (updated 2026-07-22). The cons are that it's very expensive and the subscription costs $99 a year.
- Tom's Guide review: The most comprehensive at-home health device the reviewer has used, but overkill for casual users; Tom's Guide suggests the Body Comp or Wyze Scale X instead.
