WithingsScanwatch Nova - Heart Health Hybrid Smart Watch for Men & Women - SPO2, Temperature Monitoring, Sleep, Respiratory Health, Cycle Monitoring, 30-day Battery Life, Apple iOS/Android

I had a Withings Horizon in blue before this one. The Nova is slightly lighter due to the band being a little narrower and the watch itself maybe slightly slimmer. I’ve had Apple Watches before that all broke within 2 years. I prefer the Withings watch appearance more appealing due to its simple traditional looking face with smart watch features. The smart watch connects flawlessly to my Apple IPhone and its features fit my everyday needs. It’s simple and classy, comfortable and durable. It came with watch adjustment tools and an extra rubber watch band. That’s at least an additional $20-$30 value. Not sure what else I would ask Withings to change in future watches. Try it for yourself if you desire something more traditional looking with all the bells and whistles of a smart watch.

It a perfect hybrid watch for business and health tracker. It looks good on business and the health tracking is more than enough.

The minute hand loses 5 to 20 minutes per DAY. The watch is completely useless as a watch. It’s easy to reset the time, but 4 to 5 times ever single day is pathetic.Nov. 22 update: It’s getting worse. The hands are now 30+ minutes behind the digital time, which is correct.Jan. 20 update: I finally got through to a person at support. Use Contact Us in the Withings' app and click through to chat. If you answer things correctly you’ll get past the chatbot and to a human being. I’m waiting for a resolution but I’m not hopeful.Feb. 15 update: Increased stars! I received the replacement under Withings' warranty on or about Jan. 27. So far the mechanical hands on the replacement watch is keeping time. They even shipped the replacement before receiving the return watch and paid for shipping both ways.Pros:1) The watch is gorgeous.2) The watch duplicates many of the features of the Apple Watch, but with power management that requires infrequent, instead of daily, charging.3) There are parts of the Withings' app that I prefer to Apple's Health app. They work well in tandem.4) The watch includes the O2 monitor that's been disabled on the Apple Watch.5) The replacement process was relatively painless - once I worked my way through Withings' website and reached a human. Even better I dealt with the same person throughout - via email. The best part was the speed of our interaction. It was very close to a real-time conversation. Kudos and a hat tip to Withings' rep, Toffee! He's turned an extremely unhappy customer to a happy one.Cons:1) Using a minute hand that sweeps instead of one that clicks minute-by-minute would almost surely be less prone to losing time. (The hour hand sweeps and doesn't click hour-by-hour.)2) Couldn't there be a way to sync the digital time to the mechanical hands automatically?3) Having more than one shortcut would be nice. Perhaps double- and triple-presses on the crown? I'd use the timer more but it's too many clicks and spins of the crown.

I have had the watch for short time. I love it. I have had other smart watches and health monitor. The Withing Nova watches beats them both hands down.Give encouragement for keeping up with exercise goals. Alerts for phone calls, massages etc. does ekg, pulse oximetry. Easy to use and set up. Keeps time the watch is linked to your phone. In other reviews says it looses time- haven’t had that issues. Feels so nice to not to have to race to charge my watch before it dies. This watch the battery life is awesome.

I bought this watch in October for my husbands Christmas. It continuously looses 15 to 20 minutes of time through out the day. I bought the Asurion extended protection through Amazon . Both parties say it is the other’s responsibility. Exchange / refund time has expired through Amazon and Asurion says it’s still covered through Amazon because less than a year.

This is a heavy, solid, beautiful watch, with a very classic appearance. Nice functionality for heart monitoring and other health features. I am just getting into. I love that. It reminds me to get up and move throughout the day. Overall, very satisfied with this watch!

So far so good. One of the most understated product.It’s a fitness and disguised as a mariner. Looks premium too.I do have issues with notifications of mobile but that’s negligible.

Don't let the pretty face fool you. This looks like a watch that can last a lifetime, but you will be lucky to keep it for 4 years. The battery is not replaceable, and Withings uses the rated cycle life of 500 cycles as an excuse, because in theory that means the battery could last over 20 years. But the reality is that does not take natural degredation into account, or potential offgassing which was the downfall of Scanwatch 1, with the back plates falling off, potentially due to battery swelling.Beyond just batteries though, watches need service. Pushers can wear out, gaskets should be replaced every 10 years or so to keep the water resistance healthy, glass breaks, etc. None of these things can be repaired or replaced on the Scanwatch.Beyond this being future ewaste, there are still incomplete features after years of this product being out. HRV is still missing, and body temperature tracking does almost nothing. The most obvious benefit for this is illness detection like Oura Ring, but this doesn't and probably will never do the kind of useful things the Oura Ring does. How Withings is taking so long to deliver features is shocking frankly. Understandable if they have one software engineer, but surely they have a whole department...right?Finally, the watch is utterly dependent on your phone. You can't set the time or do anything really with the watch unless you've paired it with your phone. Just more indication that this thing is not intended to last long.
