A weighing scale is a fixture in the bedrooms or bathrooms of most families, but upgrading to a smart scale will tell you more about your health beyond just your weight. Some smart scales will also be able to measure your body fat, and you can even integrate some models with your preferred smart home platform. If you want to replace your manual scale with a smart scale, check out our recommendations below.

Why Your Next Outdoor Security Camera Might Need Three Lenses
EZVIZ Puts Triple-Lens Outdoor Security in the Spotlight at IFA 2026
Monitoring a home often means watching several things at once. Just as a car pulls into the driveway, a visitor might approach the front gate, or movement could catch your eye in the side garden. For many European homes, this is a familiar scenario.
The challenge becomes even more noticeable when a property includes a backyard, detached garage, or swimming pool. Installing another camera for every angle is one solution, but it also means more devices to set up, manage, and maintain.
I played with Yarbo’s yard robot at IFA, and now I want one for every season
One tracked robot, a new job for every season
I’ll admit, I wasn’t expecting a yard robot to be one of the more entertaining things I’d get my hands on at IFA 2026. Then I walked over to Yarbo’s booth and started playing around with the M Series.
The basic idea is wonderfully simple: instead of buying a different robot for every outdoor chore, Yarbo gives you one tracked robotic Core and a collection of attachments. Swap the module, and suddenly your robot has a completely different job. Mowing? Yep. Snow? Yep. Leaves? Yep. And there’s even a trimmer module on the way.
WindGroove’s AirFi One imagines a smarter home with fewer devices
The future of smart homes may not be more devices, but better-designed experiences
The future of smart homes may not be more devices, but better-designed experiences
Minimalism has reshaped almost every corner of the modern home. Kitchens hide appliances behind seamless cabinetry, televisions have become slimmer and more discreet, and storage is increasingly designed to disappear into the architecture. The goal isn’t simply to own better things. It’s to create spaces that feel calmer, cleaner, and more intentional. Smart home technology, however, has largely moved in the opposite direction. Every upgrade seems to introduce another speaker, another controller, another light, or another connected device competing for space and attention.
