Looking for the best smart scale is difficult, especially if you’re on a low budget. Not knowing what to look for or what you want on a smart scale can be just as confusing and frustrating. At first, all smart scales look to be created equal, but they are not. Some have things like bone mass, water weight, or metabolic age others may only have the basics like your entire body weight, BMI, and body fat percentage.
The best smart scale that I found was the Renpho digital bathroom scale. With this scale, there is no need to worry that you are going to break the bank!
RENPHO Smart Scale details:
The Renpho Smart Scale comes in two colors black and white. The Renpho scale is made of a tempered glass that is 5 mm thick with an ABS plastic base. The base also has antislip grips on the button. The smart scale came with 3 triple A batteries. Amazon has given customers a choice of 2 or 3-year protection plans.
The Renpho has BIA ( Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis ) capability. To obtain the most accurate measurements from the scale, you should not be wearing any footwear and be they should be dry. This is to allow your feet to touch the 4 electrodes. With that in mind, I found a review of a very satisfied customer on Amazon’s reviews with a photograph of a Tanita receipt along with a print screen of the Renpho App comping the numbers. To check it out for yourself: Tanita vs. Renpho.
The age to consider for this is 10 to 80 years old for the fat percentage. The scale is not a substitution for consulting a physician.
The scale is Bluetooth capable pairs with Google Play store and Apple App Store. Renpho App will sync with Apple Health, Samsung Health, Fitbit Bit app, and Google Fit.
The latest app update has removed the beloved Discover tab. You will now need to download their Renpho Health from the Apple App Store and Google Play store or just simply visit Renpho’s website to access their great deals.
