Withings Body Scan (super scale, coming in 2022)

I’m very interested. As I understand, with a handle, body fat measurements can be more precise — but scales with a handle coming from firms like Tanita have been only minimally helpful in the past. I recall reading that the issue was that they only performed simple, single measurements, like left leg to left hand and right leg to right hand. In theory, using all possible variations (crossing, all at once, hand to hand, foot to foot) had been conjectured to be significantly more precise and accurate but had been too computationally intensive at the time.

Given that this scale seems to be identifying individual zones, it would seem that Withings is making the jump I had recalled reading about back then with the new Body Scan. I’ve been entirely happy with Withings’ integration with Google Fit and Strava, so I’ll definitely be buying this when it comes out, to replace my current Withings Body Cardio.
