Withings has been bringing its advanced at-home health monitors to CES for many years now, each designed to help detect health issues at minute levels without visiting the doctor. Withings brought its BeamO, which worked as a thermometer, electrocardiogram, oximeter, and stethoscope in one neat device, and the Omnia Smart Mirror, which reflects your health data and offers feedback from an AI voice assistant, to CES 2024 and CES 2025, respectively. For CES 2026, the company has launched its new Body Scan 2 scale, which turns your daily weigh-in into a body checkup.
Withings Body Scan 2 is designed to detect health risk factors, including certain heart conditions and hypertension, at home, without the cuff, along with metabolic health. This new health device combines a standard floor scale with a retractable handle to scan over 60 different biomarkers, all in about 90 seconds. It will tell you most things that you hear about in a doctor’s office, saving you frequent visits.
Most common problems originate from irregularities in cardiovascular and metabolic health. The new Withings device covers weights, heart rate, overall body composition, heart pumping performance and heart electrical activity, hypertension risk, artery health, cellular health and metabolic efficiency, and glycemic regulation to keep you alert about potential irregularities and risks.
Thanks to a special AI model, Body Scan 2 can detect arterial hypertension risk, allowing you to detect a major risk factor for a stroke. The brand has used another first-time feature in the weighing scale, the ability to catch potential glycemic dysregulation. Body Scan 2 analyzes your metabolism at the cellular level, where energy is transformed, stored, and used. It offers an in-depth review for early detection of metabolic slowdown or inflammation. This can help provide an early warning for things like diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance.
The best part is that you can get all this without any invasive tests. Instead of blood tests or pressure cuffs, the scale needs bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) and foot sweat. The scale measures the maximum activity response from the sweat glands inside your feet to assess your health. The BIS, on the other hand, is done by sending currents at different frequencies to monitor the functioning of cell membranes as an indicator of metabolic health. It even measures cellular health and age.
To note, these evaluations are not meant as a diagnosis, but rather as early warnings so you can act on them and get proper checkups to diagnose any risk factors.
The scale has eight embedded electrodes in the platform and four stainless steel electrodes in the handle to collect the data. The data is then automatically synced via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to the Withings app on iPhone or Android. The results are shown on the high-resolution color screen built into the handle. Evidently, the scale runs on a rechargeable battery that can last up to 15 months.
To use Body Scan 2, you pull the handle bar up to hip level in a roughly 90-second weigh-in. Then the app uses these measurements to form the Health Trajectory, a personalized predictive model, to help you track and visualize how daily choices may affect the health span over time, providing actionable insights. To put it simply, it helps visualize how many years of good health you can expect. It may seem unwieldy, but it can help you better your lifestyle for better health.
Withings Body Scan 2 is pending FDA clearance for certain metrics. It is scheduled for launch in Q2 2026, with a $600 price tag.
