Scales
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between smart and standard digital scales?
A standard scale measures only overall body weight. A smart scale connects to your phone and analyzes body composition, including the percentage of fat, muscle mass, and water content.
How does the body analysis technology in a smart scale work?
It uses bioelectrical impedance analysis by sending a safe, weak electrical impulse through the body. Since muscle, fat, and water conduct electricity differently, the device accurately calculates the percentage of each tissue.
What advantage do scales with a glass surface have compared to plastic ones?
A glass surface is much more durable, does not bend, is easy to clean, and maintains its original appearance over time, whereas plastic scratches and deforms easily.
How accurate are digital floor scales and what affects measurement accuracy?
Modern digital scales feature high accuracy, though inaccuracies can be caused by uneven or soft surfaces, a dying battery, and body movement during weighing.
What time of day is best for weighing yourself to see accurate weight dynamics?
The best time is in the morning right after waking up. At this time, fluctuations of fluid and food in the body are minimal, which yields the most objective result.
