Withings ScanWatch 2 review: A good-looking 'smartwatch' and not much else
Jan 19, 2025
The Withings ScanWatch 2 is one of the best hybrid smartwatches available, but that may not be enough for you.
Android Central Verdict
Hybrid smartwatches feel like a dying race, making the Withings ScanWatch 2 a rare breed. Fossil is no longer in the game after exiting the smartwatch market in 2024. Aside from Garmin's more sporty hybrids, Withings remains the only company worth looking at in the hybrid space for classic style.
Both Wearables lead Michael Hicks and I (Derrek Lee, Android Central's managing editor) received ScanWatch 2 units months ago, pairing with our respective Withings smart scales. But a busy 2024 full of more exciting smartwatch and ring tech made the subtle ScanWatch fall to the wayside.
As fans of Withings products, though, we wanted to give the ScanWatch 2 a fair shake, so we finally made a point of testing the watch throughout December and early January.
Does the Withings ScanWatch 2 have what it takes to keep hybrid smartwatches relevant, or will consumers move on to smart rings for even more subtle health tracking? Based on our time testing the ScanWatch 2, your impression of it will truly come down to whether you care more about style or substance.
Withings ScanWatch 2: Price, availability, & models
