Fitbit Aria Air Smart Scale

First of all these look great in black and also they have a really well built feel to them. Very easy to set up, just pull the tab out of the back (yep it comes with batteries 3xAA) and it will turn on straight away. Download the fitbit app if you haven't already, turn on your Bluetooth and add device on the fitbit app, click the scales, step on and done, it will synk your weight straight to the app and show you a graph of your progress. There is a little button on the back (pictured) which let's you change the weight displayed from kg to stone or lbs. The scales are very accurate when tested with a weight. Really a good bit of tech that give you a visual representation to motivate you with your weight goals

Easy to set up but no BMI like the previous one so I don't know haw fat I'm getting...probably a good thing.

Don't get me wrong, I love Fitbit trackers and smart watches and have owned several over the years, culminating in their flagship Fitbit Sense which I absolutely adore. I was so into Fitbit that I threw away a perfectly good pair of bathroom scales in October 2020 to replace them with the Fitbit Aria Air and have regretted it ever since! Firstly disappointment, it doesn't even measure body fat! A £50 connected bathroom scale that doesn't even measure body fat! Seriously Fitbit?!! To be honest though, even if it did, I'm not sure the app would be able to use the data constructively. Yes the app is generally brilliant and can do some amazing things with the data it imports from its trackers and smart watches, but when giving you smart scales related data it is extremely lacking and basic. Next huge disappointment was the reliability of its Bluetooth connection. On average it would download the weight reading to the app about one time in five! I downloaded a software patch, and reinstalled it on the app twice, but it never improved. On the odd occasion that it did download, it was so slow that I had usually manually typed my weight into the app by that stage! I've heard reports doubting the accuracy of this scale. I don't know how true they are as I didn't have another scale to compare it with, so who knows. Simply hearing these doubts was concerning though, considering this is priced as a premium product. Final straw was when it started to give me spurious readings last week. Changed the batteries, but it didn't solve the problem and it started weighing 20lbs light! At that point I gave up and binned it. Have just spent £15 on a scale which connects to its app 100% reliably, giving me a plethora of data which the app graphs beautifully for me. It even looks better than the Fitbit and all for less than a third of the price! Here lies the problem - You are simply paying an inflated price for the Fitbit name and getting a very mediocre product in return. Come on Fitbit, you can do much better than this!

It has a roomy footplate (for those with huge feet) - and is quite slimline otherwise. It did take a few attempts to connect to the fitbit app (which was already installed on my phone for use with my fitbit Versa), and it does seem to initially have weighed me about 5 pounds more than my old scales - are these right or the other ones - who knows. Nice in white to fit in nicely with the bathroom. So far, so good (*_*)

I've had this scale for almost a month now - It's really useful to know your body weight/progress and being able to see all the trends in the app is very motivating for my fitness journey. I started hard weight training about 1 month ago and use this scale as a way to track my progress. I have to say that I am quite pleased with how well it records results and communicates with the app – I haven't ever had a single issue with the accuracy, app sync or Bluetooth function. · The app tracks the weight whenever you use it - so I have a record of every measurement it's taken since I started using it. You will get your weight, and the scale will send this data to the app over Bluetooth where your BMI will be calculated and graphed. · A great feature for families or flatmates is that the app can store and track the data of multiple users via the same device or on different devices. This feature makes it possible for several people in a household to use this scale to understand their health better. 👉 Using it is simple: Turn ON the app on your phone -> Step on the scale -> Wait for the prompt from the phone, and you're done! ☑ Pros: ✔ Multi-user friendly ✔ Automatic sync ✔ Stable Bluetooth connection ✔ 3 AAA batteries included ✔ Excellent build quality ❎ Cons: - The app options/settings could have been better designed and organised All in all, I’m very pleased with my purchase.

It looks good, got it set up in moments and been working great so far although only for a week by this point. I'll hold off on verdict regarding the accuracy of the measurements. Based on one other scale used at the gym (when I was fully clothed and therefore slightly heavier), this Aria seems to be overly pessimistic and I weigh more on the Aria than the gym scales which put me at a few hundred grams less, despite being clothed vs not. Not sure which scale is inaccurate in this case. Main thing is consistency - so as long as the scales' bias is fixed, and you measure yourself in a consistent way, it's still useful. For £43 you'd probably want something a *bit* more than just 'it syncs seamlessly'. That said the app integration is very good and I am a fan of the app generally. Assuming you have your phone nearby it syncs up very quickly, although I personally wouldn't mind manually entering my measurement since you still need to confirm it on the app anyway. If you're that lazy or time-stretched, I guess that's a plus, but it's minor. I was wondering how/if these scales measure body-fat percentage, and the answer seems to be that it guesses based on your weight and provided height and sex. Ultimately this is less accurate than an actual sensor, which I was hoping would come provided for £43. Overall, a good product, let down by price. It's charging more than the competition for what I personally regard as very little tangible benefit. For the reader, whether or not you should buy it comes down to how much you rate/buy into the Fitbit ecosystem already. If you use the app/a watch extensively like I do and are in the market for a 'smart' scale (I use that term generously here) then you can't go too wrong with these scales. I'd seriously consider the alternatives though.

These scales are rubbish, I have Fitbit Sense 2, and the latest Fitbit app on Galaxy S20. the app finds the scales but took many attempts to actually connect and pair, lots of taking out the batteries and reseting the scales...when it works...sort of, you have to have the fitbit app open on the weight page, then when..IF it connects when you stand on the scales the measured weight appeaqrs and you have to press save on the app...what/ really?..very poor software writing...however i might have been able to live with that, but every time i came to use the scales next day or whatever, the scales would not connect to the phone...tried a Galaxy S22....same thing..when I went online there are pages and pges of complaints about the lck of relibility of the bluetooh....after reseting and reconnceting several times gave up!..its crap...tech support from Fitbit is utterly utterly hopeless..this product is not fir for purpose...just like my sense 2 watch...continually reads THOUSANDS of steps around my apartment...hopelless junk

There's a certain irony in being bothered enough about your weight to buy expensive scales, but also lazy enough that you want them to automatically record it for you :) That aside, usage is super simple. Open the Fitbit app on your phone, stand on the scales and wait. I've been using them for 2-3 weeks and had zero issues, with the weight syncing to the app in a few seconds each time. I find this especially useful as I get up in the morning without my glasses on, so being able to stand on the scales and have it record the weight without me having to actually SEE the scales is very handy. The scales register and display your weight *very* quickly and output it onto a nice bright white display. You don't need to kick or press on the scales to turn them on, just step on them and they come alive. Nice. £50 seems a fair price. They have a good finish to them and look smart and work great. I can't comment hugely on accuracy because I don't have a medically calibrated set of scales here, but obviously if you are tracking weight for weight loss, any slight inaccuracy isn't that important, it's the *change* and whether it's going up or down that matters. Leave the scales in the same place, use only these to track your weight and don't touch them and they should maintain the same level of accuracy/inaccuracy.

Update: Inmiddels werkt de app weer prima en wordt alles heel snel gesynchroniseerd. Heb deze weegschaal gekocht omdat ik al een Fitbit horloge heb. Daarnaast ziet hij er gewoon heel mooi uit! Het koppelen en wegen gaat makkelijk. Alleen synchroniseert de weegschaal niet goed met de app. Pas wanneer je de app helemaal stopt, (vanuit instellingen) en daarna weer opstart, worden er goed gesynchroniseert. Aanrader als je het niet erg vindt dat het niet vlekkeloos werkt, voor de rest een topapparaat ;)

I love my new scale, accurate, easy to use and syns seamlessly with my Versa3.

Betydligt billigare än Aria 2 som vi hade tidigare. Ibland synkar den inte med mobilen och saknar fettprocentsmätning.

Premetto che non ha il calcolo del BMI, quindi se state cercando una bilancia con quella caratteristica, questa non fa per voi. Per il resto ottimo prodotto. Integrazione con la sua app perfetta e accoppiamento semplicissimo (ci sono voluti 5 minuti guidati dal wizard). Il design e' piacevole (ma e' soggettivo). Rispetto ad altre bilance che ho avuto, ottimo il consumo delle batterie. Direi un ottimo acquisto, ma a me non serviva il BMI.

It's a good scale, but I thought it would have more integration to the app. First it takes forever to connect to the app by Bluetooth, then if the scale falls asleep while waiting to connect, the connection fails. Second, you still have to press save on the app, it doesn't automatically transfer the weight. I guess it makes sense, but you have to basically weigh yourself with the phone. I don't know if you have the same phone as me, but with the metal case, that adds almost a pound. It's not more practical than a regular scale, in my opinion.
