Measure 13 unique biometrics with the new Wyze Scale X

By Jon Bitner June 7, 2022

Wyze has revealed the Scale X — a new smart scale that helps monitor weight, body fat percentage, heart rate, and more. The product is positioned as a premium version of the existing Wyze Scale and will retail for $34.

Compared to the original Wyze Scale, the Wyze Scale X offers improved battery life, a sleek new design (available in both black and white), and several new modes that make it easier to weigh luggage, pets, and children. The list of metrics it can monitor is lengthy, and includes the following:

Wyze

Weight
Body fat percentage
Heart rate
Lean body mass
BMI

Muscle mass percentage
Visceral fat
Basal metabolic rate
Bone mass
Metabolic age

All these values are easy to track, as the smart scale can sync with popular apps such as Apple Health, Google Fit, and Fitbit. It also syncs with Wyze’s own smartphone software, which can be used to monitor your heart rate.

Each Wyze Scale X can support up to eight different user profiles. It can even automatically identify who is standing on the scale and instantly load their data. Once it’s done performing its Body Impedance Analysis (BIA) and generating your day’s stats, they can be easily read on the 3.5-inch LED display. If you’d rather not have your data tracked, there’s the option to take one-off readings for yourself or a guest.

The Wyze Scale X joins a growing list of smart scales, although many carry price tags well above that of the Scale X. If you’re interested in adding one to your home, be sure to peruse our list of the best smart scales before making a selection.

Google rolls out new Nest Cam features to Google Home for web

While many users access Google Home on their smartphone or smart display, the platform is also available via web browser. The web-based Google Home experience wasn't exactly the best way to access your smart devices, but that's rapidly changing as Google rolls out new updates to the client -- the latest of which adds a ton of new ways to access your Nest Cams.

Google began rolling out the update late last week, and most users should now have access to the improved Google Home for web experience. The big draw is access to your Nest Cam history and the option to download clips. Prior to this update, it was impossible to view recorded clips via Google Home for web, forcing you to instead jump into the official Google Home app.
