Withings ScanWatch Horizon – Hybrid Smart Watch with ECG, Heart Rate, Oximeter - 30 Day Battery Life - Smart Watches for Women, Smart Watch for Men, Fitness Tracker - Android & iOS

Purchased to replace Withings HR Steel. Includes both built-in Oxygen Sats and ECG compared with the HR Steel. I have confidence in the Scan version of this health monitoring watch. The watch face has a minimalist analogue design with a large circular digital display. Functions are selected via a revolving & push to select winder button on the right edge (the HR Steel version has a push to select only button). The display on the Scan watch is significantly larger than that on the HR Steel and is used effectively to indicate the ECG and O2 Stats monitoring. The watch has standard sleep monitoring functions and can sense sleep apnea due to the O2 Sats continuous monitoring while monitoring sleep. The watch also continually monitors ECG and will report any Atrial Fibrillation (AF) events encouraging visits to A&E or GP to investigate. The mobile App (Android & iOS) Health integrates data (read and write) with Android and Apple Health systems. The App is adequate for monitoring health parameters but could benefit from refurbishment/upgrade as it feels rather basic and lacks sophistication. I have a number of Withings health monitoring devices such as BP monitor, smart weighing scales & thermometer, which are all well designed and feel accurate (due to the specification rather than actual comparison with professional equipment), a perception which extends to the Scan watch. The Scan watch is an excellent companion ‘always on’ health monitor and could potentially save your life given the continuous AF monitoring. An almost eccentric feature of Withings analogue health watches is the analogue Step indicator dial which shows the percentage of target daily step count completed. It provides a very quick indicator of step count compared to Smart watches which may need the user to use multiple button pushes to display this data. Compared with Smart watches the Withings Health Scan watch’s superb battery life with over a week between charges (compared with daily recharge requirements), on top of which the charge time from <5% residual charge is in the region of 2-3 hours. The watch charge stand is not as elegant as, say, Samsung’s vertical Galaxy Watch charge stand but is magnetic and relatively easy to use and orientate. The Withings Health Scan watch is quite expensive compared to Android Smart watches (not Apple Watches!) and the Withings HR Steel but it is well worth the money with the continuous ECG and O2 Sats monitoring - it might save your life….

Pros: Long battery life (as compared to other watches) Comfortable Mostly accurate (as far as I can tell) Cons: Not accurate when auto-detecting workouts Some features/functions could be better Not available for the US I've waited over a year and a half for this watch. I live in the US where it is still not available. So I finally decided to ordered this off the UK Amazon and got it shipped over here. I am so happy that I did! I needed a watch like this that had ECG capabilities that worked with Android. I charge it about every 2 weeks, it's usually about 30% by then, so it doesn't quite live up to the 30 days. But then again I do have some extra features enabled so that was to be expected. The night time respiratory scan does eat quite a bit of battery, about 8 to 10% each night. I have it on the automatic setting so it has only done that twice for me. The ECG seems to function great. I did have trouble with getting the ECG to scan after I was working outside and was sweaty, it took quite a few times for it to finally do a successful scan. Other than that the ECG has functioned the first time. The heart rate seems to be accurate when I've compared it to other devices. I don't seem to get as many steps with this as I did with my FitBit. I'm not sure if that's because FitBit was less accurate and this is more or the other way around. The auto-detection for workout is not that accurate. Most times when I drive my vehicle it registers it as Cycling. It also didn't detect the half-hour walk that I went on. Some things I would like to see in an update that currently do not exist. You currently can't see past notifications, so if you don't happen to glance at your watch when the notification comes through then you'll miss it and won't be able to see it later. The second is to be able to set the alarm clock through the watch. You have to set it through the phone and can only turn it on/off through the watch. Overall I am very happy that I finally bought this and that all the features work in the US. I have more peace of mind now that I have something that can help monitor me.

I've had a few wearables over the past few years, but always very conscious that they looked obviously like a piece of tech - ie a Fitbit or a Xiaomi Mi band where the entire face lights up. Main purpose of buying is 1) to hold myself accountable for fitness, 2) to have notifications discretely provided and 3) tracking sleep. Best part is that I often forget that it is a piece of tech that is supposed to provide notifications - I've set the long-press of the button to quickly activate Do-Not-Disturb mode, which does accidentally activate a few times it looks like which can be a negative for a lot of people. However, the UX is a bit confusing especially when you have to scroll to go to the 'back' option. The sleep-tech seems accurate based on my recollections of wakign up - but seem relatively binary between 'good' and 'bad' sleep. A bit more integration and smarts between heartbeat and sleep would be nice. I'm pleasantly surprised there is a vibration motor for this which I did not realise in my research - however there's no ability to customise the haptics on how intense it is. Implementation is also a bit iffy - the two sequential buzzes for 'goal reached' for example come as two different notifications spaced around 20 seconds apart, which is enough for me to read the first notification, put my wrist down, then it buzzes again to make me raise it once again. I'm also concerned when it vibrates but isnt on my wrist, but on a hard surface - a short check whether the Scanwatch is actually being worn before vibrating would be useful and probably saves battery life. Battery life in the short term is fantastic - I've charged maybe five times in the past two months but definitely could have done less. If you turn on DND and turn off quick-look, I'm sure battery life could hit 3 weeks with ease. However, I'm not as happy with that the magnetic charger has a USB-A connection at the other end, which should definitely be USB-C. Seem's relatively sturdy - I've hit this on surfaces a few times because its the first time wearing a watch for a very long time. Yet to see any scratches but it has only been a few months. However, noticed that the silicon watchstrap very quickly accumulates sweat and a noticable smell. Will likely swap this out for non-silicon at one point. Looks are fantastic, although in poorly lit environments, the silver markings on a white watchface can be hard to read. I'd expect different watchfaces might have different experiences, particularly silver on black. Surprised that there is not a watchface with black markings on white. Haptics on the knurled knob could also be slightly improved, but otherwise is easy to manipulate. Overall, very happy with this purchase.

I just wanted to say, given Christmas is coming, that this watch, for my 55th Wedding Anniversary present. it just so comfortable, easy to set up, if you download the mobile app programme suited to your IOS, and has seemed to be very accurate. The instruction book was in English, very clear with plenty of information about exactly what it will or will not do. Such a joy to read good English! The 'system or functionality seems so well designed and intuitive. The interface is so simple and clear and exactly as pictured, but actually smarter and neater. Previously, I found swiping a touch screen very difficult as my skin is so smooth and does not register. So, just so great to use a push button to wake it, and a scrolling 'crown' (winder) to select an icon in the small black window with label, with another push, all very bright and clear. Just a straight forward menu, with no sub-menus .to frustrate one. The 'crown' is a good size and very positive to push for selection. I particularly wanted a nicer, smarter watch than my last two which were more for exercise than health. I have certainly received that! I did not want bulk and this is flatter yet substantial, amazingly comfortable and suitable for male or female. Many more choices of strap lengths too, , ie. more, closer spaced holes for the buckle. I also wanted a watch that would give health statistics, just enough to reassure me, given some issues. It gave me accurate 02 and heart rate readings, plus did a single line heart ECG reading, which reflected what I already knew, so I trust it. If you had severe heart problems, it would not take readings but would signal that to you. There are all the features of the more expensive range of titbits, notifications of messages etc. It is much better than my last fit bit, as it uses both sides of the body to do the top and bottom funcition of the heart ie. the wrist and opposite hand in contact with the watch.. Just so comfortable to have a soft, thinner silicone wrist strap, on a large clear (38mm or 42) mm face instead of a tiny face and thick, bulky strap. Truly delighted by my partner's choice, given my wishes. If there are any problems, I will update this. It has a two year guarantee so sounds as if I shall not be complaining during that time, I expect! Update 18th Dec. Absolutely thrilled with this watch still. Admitted to hospital and could do my own checks on my heart rhythm etc. while the statistics were on the screen, but also to verify. the accuracy This is very close to being 100% accurate! Just wish I could have the BP read and displayed too, but this watch does not do that. Only downside. So comfortable and smart. Not sponsored but just delighted.

I've had this device for 14 months now. On the days when it works properly it's great but that's at best 5 days a week. Today, for example, it has accurately mapped my regular morning activity walk linked to my phone's GPS and has recorded the distance accurately as 1.89 miles but has only recorded 1803 steps. I am 5 feet 9 tall and have a stride length of about 28 inches but only a giant or someone with a jet pack could cover 1.89 miles in 1803 paces! According to the heart rate results for the same walk, it would appear that I died twice during the course of it because there were two periods of a few minutes in the middle of the walk where no heart rate was recorded, then a few minutes when my heart rate was recorded as being between 180 and 190 beats per minute. This kind of nonsense happens about 2 days a week on average. I have a heart monitor surgically implanted in my chest that my hospital cardiology department monitors remotely daily and has found nothing unusual at the times when the Scanwatch has shown its nonsense. I have taken to wearing my old £60 Fitbit on my other wrist and it produces plausible results for both the number of paces (5100 today) and heart rate for my daily walk. The ECG function hardly ever produces a full set of analytical statistics: "a software issue that our team are working on" was the explanation given to me by Withings Customer Services 10 months ago! I've lost count of the number of email exchanges I've had with Withings customer support. The normal opening response is that I'm not wearing it correctly or that I need to clean the back of the watch with water. I clean the back of the watch every morning and I wear it in the same (correct) position on my wrist every day, so why does it malfunction some days and not others? I have asked if I can send the watch to them to get it checked over but was told that they have no servicing facility available. It's clear from more positive reviews that other buyers do not have the same experience as I've had but £250 is a lot of money to shell out when there's a chance that you'll get a dud device that the manufacturer won't even take back to repair or replace.

I will not discuss all the watch does and how... If you want to buy one I am sure you have already got all info. This is not a smartwatch you can use to answer calls, use Google maps etc. It is targeted at those who want/need to keep an eye on their health, count steps and see the stats of their workouts. I love, love, love this watch. It is not the typical 'hey, I also have a Fitbit' shape and looks really classy. So easy to set up, it took just a few minutes, always guided through everything with explanations. The app is so clear and easy to use. All in all:getting started is just a breeze. I am over 60 and have Afib every now and then. I love the fact that I can run an ECG and check. I am happy about the sleep tracking and SPO2. I wear glasses all the time yet at night I can still see the time in the upper circle:a push of the button lights up this LED display and I can see it. I had a Fitbit Sense before, time is shown bigger but I can see it well enough on the Scanwatch. Taking an ECG requires less steps than on the Sense. The wristband of the scanwatch does not cause my skin underneath to sweat and give me blisters, unlike Fitbit. The best of all: I get better and more in depth details about my heart, SPO2, sleep, steps than with the Fitbit AND ALL WITHOUT SUBSCRIPTION! And the scanwatch is FDA approved. The battety life is the best I ever had with any watch I had, outstanding. There is nothing more I could ask for. If I were younger and did regular running I would go for a Garmin, in addition to the Scanwatch. 😊

if you want a sports tracker this probably isn't for you. I have checked it out while wearing a fitbit on the other arm and steps etc are wildly different. The heart rate is usually similar, but there it all ends - I assume the scanwatch works to a completely different set of algorithms, and the step count is around 2/3 of the fitbit one, and it shows far less distance covered. For a sports tracker might be best to stick with the one your friends use. As a health, particularly heart, monitor so far I've found it OK. I assume as it is clinically validated that the ecg readings, sp02, heart rate will be accurate, they are easy to record and easy to send wherever via email The sleep monitor function is not good - if like me you are prone to waking during the night and dropping back off to sleep, it seems to only recognise and measure the first sleep period, not the whole time you are sleeping/dozing/waking. For what I want - monitor heart rate, notify of signs of a fib, ability to record ecg, sp02 and send to my doctor, it does the job, and it's a comfortable nice looking watch, but I can see it isn't what everyone is necessarily looking for. Personally I shall wear a Fitbit Inspire 2 on my other wrist for tracking steps, sleep and distance walked - I'm too old now to be doing most of the other activities tracked and none track gardening, lawnmowing etc which would be useful - certainly good exercis3

This watch is gorgeous and super reliable. I’ve been using it for over a year and the battery life is still great. I wear it every day and the battery lasts more than a month for me (auto wake is off). I love how discreet it is and the fact it looks like a stylish unassuming mechanical watch when the display is off. The software is fine, and there are updates that really improve the watch once in a while. It tracks a good range of data and has great integration with Apple Health. The watch UI is fine and the app is full of features. The ability to see trends over the day, weeks and months is really nice. In terms of quality of data, it probably isn’t as accurate as other trackers out there in terms of step count, HR and sleep monitoring. One of the reasons the battery life is so good is it only measures HR every 10 minutes if not in workout mode. However if you don’t care about the absolute accuracy and are are happy with a good idea of data trends, the Scanwatch is more than good enough. This watch blows away the competition in terms of style, reliability and battery life. I am super happy with this and would absolutely recommend!

Me gusto muchoo
