Best Smart Scales for Fitness Tracking: GadgetScout Shortlist

Published 8 Sept 2026

Our current shortlist of smart scales for fitness tracking, among the products covered by GadgetScout: Withings Body Smart and RENPHO, without a universal ranking.

Among the smart scales currently covered by GadgetScout for fitness tracking, two models stand out: the Withings Body Smart and the RENPHO Bluetooth Body Fat Scale. This shortlist helps you choose according to how you track your data.

In summary

Choose the Withings Body Smart if you want a Wi-Fi + Bluetooth scale integrated into the Withings ecosystem for long-term tracking. Choose the RENPHO if a Bluetooth scale with a companion app is enough for your everyday tracking.

Our take

This shortlist covers only the products GadgetScout currently covers; it does not claim to include every option available. It is built from documented sources only: the published product sheets and the manufacturer-announced specifications. We have not run independent tests and we make no body-fat accuracy claims. Current pricing can change, so check before deciding.

Who is it for?

Strengths - Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity with the Withings app - Body-composition estimates via bioelectrical impedance (BIA) - Withings app ecosystem, suited to long-term tracking The Withings Body Smart suits people who want a connected scale with a strong app and trend tracking over time.

• •Body-composition measurements are estimates, not clinical measurements
• •Some features may depend on the app and a Withings account
• •Check phone compatibility and the number of supported users
• •Do not confuse this model with the Body Scan and Body Comp ranges

Who is it for?

• •Impedance readings are estimates, not medical measurements
• •Results depend on consistent conditions and regular use
• •Check the manufacturer sheet for capacity and accuracy

Alternatives

For a direct head-to-head between these two scales, our dedicated comparison covers the differences in detail. This shortlist includes only the products GadgetScout currently covers.

• •Phone compatibility and the number of users
• •Regular measurement conditions for consistent tracking

Verdict

Both scales rely on impedance estimates — never clinical measurements — and neither replaces medical advice. The Withings Body Smart leans on the ecosystem and Wi-Fi, the RENPHO on Bluetooth simplicity. Neither is universally better: choose according to how you track your data, then check current prices before deciding.
