While luggage scales aren’t expensive, they are one of those items you lend to a friend and never see again. The luggage and pet weighing features are handy, as a dog would need to be a very good boy to sit on a scale, and cats are just furry chaos. Wyze has done its best to cram as many features as possible into this scale, and it does hit the point where things get a bit gimmicky. It May be Overkill in Some Respects Dave McQuilling / Review Geek Something as minor as a napkin underneath one of the scale’s corners can skew a reading by over 10%. Equally, users must place the scale on a flat, hard surface. Like habitually weighing yourself when you wake up, after your first bathroom trip but before breakfast. For accurate results, you must weigh yourself at a similar time and under similar circumstances daily. The scale performs as well as any other scale, and inconsistencies are usually down to user error. What the scale tells me matches my lifestyle choices over the testing period, so I can only assume it is very consistent with its measurements. So I can deduce I’ve gained mostly fat, which makes sense when glancing at the number of Wendy’s visits on my credit card statement. Alongside my weight, my body fat percentage also went up, and my lean mass increased slightly. Of the two people using the test scale, the one who was dieting showed steady weight loss over the testing period, and the individual who ended up eating and drinking more than usual (me) gained around two pounds. While I can’t gauge the measurements’ overall accuracy, they seem very consistent. The Tracking Is Consistent Dave McQuilling / Review Geek

As this is a software issue, there is every chance Wyze will provide an update if enough demand is there.

It’s better to have one central one everything else links to. You can sync Samsung Health with Google Fit, but then you’re probably on your way to creating a nightmarish, unmanageable web of health apps.

However, one notable absence from the list is Samsung Health. It will easily sync with Apple Health, Google Fit, and Fitbit, which are arguably the three biggest health management apps in use. Wyze claims the Scale X is capable of syncing with popular fitness apps. You won’t get tracking or access to the multitude of metrics the Scale X offers. You can use the device without the app, but it will only function as a digital scale. So if a friend is coming round and wants a reading of their body fat percentage, adding them to the scale won’t give them the ability to control your house’s lighting at 2 AM. It’s easy to add extra users, and you can choose which devices that user has access to. There isn’t a dedicated app for the Scale X it’s a component of Wyze’s overarching smart home app, which functions very well.
