I've recently bought this scale, upgrading from my withings body cardio. I've been using the body cardio for 4 years and never had any issues. So I bought the body scan and this is bad... really bad. The body composition measurements keep on failing. I've tried everything as explained on the website of withings. It works once and then fails 6 or 7 times! This is so irritating. I've checked the different forums and OMG the amount of people having this exact same issue is insane!! So I contacted Withings and will return the body scan Monday for full refund. I've been using smart scales for a few years now. I had a Tanita then Withings body cardio... no problems. But this body scan is a mess!!! Thank God I can get my money back!

[@DarthGengarus]

how is the scale without the subscription? did it add any real value during the free trial period?

[@TomasVillegas]

I didn’t enroll, I’ve been using it without the subscription and it’s been great. 👍

[@DarthGengarus]

@@TomasVillegas waiting on mine to deliver FedEx has it hostage it’s been in my city since yesterday but won’t deliver a few days lmao I HATE FedEx always a issue with them

[@meowchubbycat]

Just ordered one!

[@TomasVillegas]

Nice! 😁

[@Sinasi08]

How does it take for a full scan? I might buy this one to upgrade from my Withings body cardio.

[@TomasVillegas]

Roughly a 45-60 seconds to get through all the measurements. 👍

[@FreedomOfSpeech107]

I've read 2023 reviews that said that measurements were phony and not accurate at all. To the device users here, is it the same thing in 2024 or has Nokia updated their firmware? Thnx

[@TomasVillegas]

I haven’t noticed a large discrepancy. But I also haven’t cross checked the numbers since I made this video.

[@SuperMerlot]

Has nothing to do with the firmware. The technology used by these scales cannot accurately measure anything accurately besides weight.

[@FreedomOfSpeech107]

@@SuperMerlot I'm not even sure weight is accurate....

[@JPMMA507]

Just ordered one! 😊❤

[@alzdsz]

Is it accurate with its results?

[@JPMMA507]

@@alzdsz I have it in the box still. Will unbox soon, I've just been too busy. About accuracy.... well.... I would have to try it a few times but then I would need something to comoare the results with... Dexascan? For body fat percentages.... wouldnt know how to assess accuracy for like "nerve health".... I have to look into all that. I can comoare some things with my other scale - Withings Body + and see how weight, Body fat %, muscle mass % etc differ....

[@Olyrous]

This is like an ad. Not what I was lookin for.

[@TomasVillegas]

🤷‍♂️

[@Noone-xf9cm]

Because he liked, and recommended it. What would make it not an “ad” for you? If he trashed it, disliked it, and said don’t buy?

[@paulpoco22]

Waiting for someone to say something funny about the difference between the 2 people shown but respectful.

robot script

[@TomasVillegas]

Robot comment.

[@vdursu]

@@TomasVillegas Not really, this clip seems like you're reading the marketing booklet directly from Withings

[@metaloph1l]

The script is extremely robotic, as if he read straight from their marketing material.

[@Slush23]

If you go to their own webpage, all you have to do is read the reviews definitely stay away the errors are bad ! Hundreds of people have left reviews talking about how in accurate the body percent fat measurements are and half the body readings do not work and fail 90% of the time ! Your video made me want this until I read the reviews and of course they have their own fake five star reviews which you can always tell

[@TomasVillegas]

That’s unfortunate. So far they’ve been pretty close on the numbers for me. Thanks for taking time out of your day to leave this feedback 👍

[@Snypa-007]

I haven't read the webpage reviews but I did read a reddit comment the scales don't keep the segmental part of the data in your history, only the main overall data. Seems like the scales have out grown he app.

[@FreedomOfSpeech107]

Almost all of these reviews are from 2023. I wondered if they had updated their firmware and therefore the readings accuracy.

[@Sinasi08]

This is exactly what happened to me. I very recently bought this scale and what a mess!! The body composition keeps on failing. Works once and fails 6, 7, 8 times for no fuck*ng reason! I've been using a body cardio for 4 years and had no issues. This body scan is a mess! I have contacted Withings and will return the product to get full refund. I had a look of different forums and OMG so many users have the same exact issues. Very and experience.

[@davepanrios]

These scales are terrible! Extremely high failure rate, lots of bugs. Withings used to make good products and be a good companies, but definitely no the case now. Avoid!!

[@TomasVillegas]

Mine is still working 🤷‍♂️
