The eight-electrode system is really the centerpiece here, with sensors split between your hands and feet. This setup enables segmental body composition analysis, so you’re not just getting an overall body fat percentage — you’ll see the breakdown for each arm, each leg, and your torso individually. That granular data is particularly useful if you’re tracking fitness progress or trying to spot imbalances, and in general I like the idea — though if you’re prone to OCD, you might not love seeing that your arms or legs are slightly different from each other. It’s normal though, especially if you’re like me and play a sport like tennis.

In total, the scale tracks 13 different metrics, including weight, BMI, heart rate, body fat percentage, muscle mass, muscle mass percentage, lean body mass, body water percentage, visceral fat, bone mass, basal metabolic rate, protein levels, and metabolic age. Some of these, like BMI, are just simple calculations, and you may not find that metric particularly useful anyway. Others, like visceral fat measurement, represent genuinely useful health information detected through the sensors in the scale.

The scale does have Wi-Fi connectivity, which is very useful. Because the scale syncs your measurements directly to the cloud without needing your phone nearby, tracking becomes much more seamless — you don’t have to pull your phone out and make sure it’s connected through Bluetooth. As long as the scale can identify you (which it does by matching your weight against known users), your data uploads automatically. That said, relying solely on weight matching for user identification feels like an area that could use improvement. Maybe future versions could get smarter about recognition.

Up to eight users can be automatically recognized, and unlimited sharing makes the scale work well for households. Specialized modes expand what you can do beyond standard weigh-ins, too. There’s a Baby mode for tracking infant weight, Pet mode for your animals, Luggage mode for travel prep, Pregnancy mode for expectant mothers, and Athlete mode for people whose body compositions differ significantly from the general population. Most of these modes simply disable most of the sensors, only tracking weight instead.

One thing worth checking after setup: the scale may be configured by default to only take detailed body composition measurements when the app is open on your phone. If you want fully automatic cloud syncing of comprehensive data, you’ll want to disable that setting to get the most out of the Wi-Fi connectivity. You can do this by toggling it off in the profiles section of the app.
