The new Wyze Scale Ultra makes health metrics more visible
Wyze has launched its latest smart scale, the Scale Ultra, featuring a sizeable 4.3-inch color TFT display that puts vital health metrics front and center. The new device builds upon previous Wyze scale offerings whilst keeping things affordable.
The most notable addition, this time around is the bright, large display that shows health metrics as well as trending data directly on the scale itself. This reduces the need to check your phone for updates.
Users can track 13 different body composition measurements, including standard metrics like weight and body fat percentage, as well as more detailed data points such as visceral fat, metabolic age, and protein levels.
Where many smart scales rely solely on Bluetooth connectivity, the Scale Ultra supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections. So this is a nice plus. This dual-connectivity approach means your data will transfer even without a phone nearby. It takes the hassle out of syncing.
