    Can't recommend it enough, especially at this price.

  • ruddj on 03/01/2021 - 12:03

    Is this a rechargeable lithium battery or an AAA?

    • PerthectDeal on 03/01/2021 - 12:15

      AAA from and comes with batteries from memory

      • Being Askhole on 03/01/2021 - 12:31

        this is USB Rechargeable model

          I'd rather the AAA version than a built in lithium rechargeable…

          I have two of these Renpho units and they're great.

        • aoeueoa on 04/01/2021 - 06:07

          USB rechargeable = battery life of probably 2-3 years with cheapo batteries, and maybe 5-6 with a quality battery.

          After which you'll have to leave it plugged in.

          • garage sale on 04/01/2021 - 10:45

            @aoeueoa: great, now i bring my scales into the bedroom so i can charge at the same time as my phone so i can weight myself in the morning.

            prefer aaa and my eneloops, but understand people don’t like 2032 battery scales.

  • Apologent on 03/01/2021 - 12:07

    Thanks. I was just looking for a scale.

  • [Deactivated] on 03/01/2021 - 12:08

    This is an awesome scale. I use it and it definitely tells me I'm fat in about 15 different ways!

    I wish it had better app integration such as Lifesum, Mi Fit and others.

    • SleepyBot on 03/01/2021 - 12:17

      "I wish it had better app integration such as Lifesum, Mi Fit and others."

      Would you not get some level of data integration through Google Fit / Apple Health Kit etc?

      • [Deactivated] on 03/01/2021 - 12:29
        +1

        Yeah you can but Google fit has other problems like doubling up data and steps. It's a lot of manual data input using it. Google really needs to just retire Google fit, they failed with it and has no support or updates.

        It's a shame :(

        I think it's why Google is trying to buy Fitbit

    Can I only buy one? Trying to order again and it's not letting me input the code

  • Muscles on 03/01/2021 - 12:19

    Are these any accurate?
    I recently bought the Sinocare scales and they’re not too accurate - the readings are inconsistent

    • Fooah on 03/01/2021 - 12:25
      +6

      Weighed one of my 25kg calibrated weight plates at 25.0kg.

      Pretty accurate

      • Muscles on 03/01/2021 - 13:50

        Sorry I meant the fat percentages etc.
        I understand it’ll be fairly inaccurate, compared to calipers, dexa etc…

        • BadAtNames on 03/01/2021 - 15:27

          Your understanding is correct, how inaccurate will depend on the specific scale. BIA has potential but not yet and definitely not at this price point

  • PerthectDeal on 03/01/2021 - 12:20

    Got these on a previous deal, they are great, the app is good, you can click on all the information and it will tell you if good or out of range.

    Consistent reading with the commercial ones as well as had a fitness assesment and all the values were the same as this budjet one!

    The scales are quite compact, smaller that our previous electronic glass weight only scales. This is an advantage for us as fit perfectly in the bathroom space where the old ones you would bump into

    • 4foxache on 03/01/2021 - 20:11
      +1

      I had a professional scan and these scales don't get my bone density correct they understate it. The other percentages are ball park correct. For what you pay really it's pretty damn good.

      One pro scan is $20-30 and you get these to keep for the same price. It's certainly great value and good enough to give you a decent idea where you're at and track trends.

  • Fooah on 03/01/2021 - 12:26

    Bought this on a previous deal, haven't bothered with the app but as a general check every now again in the home gym it does the job.

    • Slo20 on 03/01/2021 - 12:33
      +2

      You missing out by not using the app as the app tells more than just weight.

      • Fooah on 03/01/2021 - 12:52

        Ill check it out, I barely have a reason to know my weight so I doubt ill need the extra information.

  • N21212 on 03/01/2021 - 12:53

    Some reviews on Amazon says the extra measurements are not accurate. Pass

    • Oofy Doofy on 03/01/2021 - 13:02

      It's almost impossible to be exactly accurate, but with more data and long term calculations you'll get pretty close.

      You can also add extra information yourself, that it cannot ascertain unless you physically measure parts of your body. It all helps give you more accuracy

    • staz on 03/01/2021 - 13:28

      If that kind of accuracy is important to you, then any scale at this price point isn't for you.

      If you want something "in the ball park" to give you an idea and track progress then these scales are great.

    • Fybre on 03/01/2021 - 13:33
      +5

      The concept with these scales isn't the accuracy of the other measurements but to show relative trends, such as an overall decrease in body fat or increase in muscle mass.

  • Ohz on 03/01/2021 - 13:03

    how does this one compare to Xiaomi scale?
    https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/xiaomi-body-composition-smart-s…

        This is just a rebadge. Only a handful of factories make them.

  • voteoften on 03/01/2021 - 13:11

    I told a friend about this. She’s sensitive about her weight and has a snoopy partner. If she uses it, will anyone else be able to see what her results/weight were? She says the last scale she had would display the previous users weight.

    • Cloudie on 03/01/2021 - 13:24

      from what I've experienced, it resets. But I haven't used it with the app yet. Just as a general scale.

      • Fooah on 03/01/2021 - 13:28
        +21

        Sounds like a people problem not a software problem

    • Oofy Doofy on 03/01/2021 - 13:27

      Only she will know from the app and any other integration of the data into other apps she may use.

    • BLB1984 on 03/01/2021 - 13:51

      Nope this just resets - she'd want to be the only one to use the app function though as it uploads to app. But just him coming in and pressing scales to see a weight doesn't work.

      Also she should probably ditch him if that's how he makes her feel!

      • lestat87 on 04/01/2021 - 16:54

        100% agree on that. It's not a healthy relationship & it won't last if she gets her self esteem back & realises most guys aren't control freaks.

      Why you'd keep your weight secret from your partner is beyond me

    Thanks OP Good Price !

  • Commenter on 03/01/2021 - 14:07

    Requires location to be 'on' to update weight via bluetooth. My other apps (head phones, Garmin) does not need location to be on.

    • seeknsearch on 03/01/2021 - 15:09

      Scale needs to know if you're near Maccas or KFC.

      • garage sale on 04/01/2021 - 10:48

        no, chinese govt wants to know if aussies are getting fat and lazy …. or sell data to uber eats when you have stats on who has no will power to loose weight.

    • Pudina Chutney on 04/01/2021 - 08:33

      Isn't this an Android 6+ issue?

        All other apps on my phone continue to work location off

  • TrendyTim on 03/01/2021 - 14:42

    I bought this at full price late last year, love it but the app kinda sucks, I share the login with my wife and if she logs in it logs me out and I have to login and reconnect to google / Samsung fit, very annoying.

  • Jimothy Wongingtons on 03/01/2021 - 16:17

    Got one to replace an old fitbit aria that is finally crapping out with error messages.
    I felt like I've seen ozbargain listings for this scale nearly at least once a month.
    $28.99 delivered, cant complain I guess.

    As a (very) small business order I find it amazing something something like this can be sold for relatively so cheap, WITH free delivery with amazon prime. I understand Amazon takes a HUGE cut of profits, added with the tax payable, time and effort and resources required for after sales service/support/faulty/change of mind returns etc, have to wonder just how much profit is in these things.

  • jje on 03/01/2021 - 16:56

    The weight part of these is accurate and it's great to see trends in the phone app. However, I am not convinced that the body composition measurements are accurate at all. For example, I've spent the last couple of months in my muscle building bulking phase. It says I've gained a few kg, but reports that my skeletal muscle mass has gone down. YMMV.

    • botchie on 03/01/2021 - 21:00

      You have to enable athlete mode , not sure if that helps but when I did it, I got a better accurate bdi

      • jje on 03/01/2021 - 21:52

        I don't understand why it needs that, it drops the fat by about 5-6% which is a lot to be out by…

        • botchie on 03/01/2021 - 22:04

          It's the way it calculates water retention and muscle mass in fit ppl, if you tick it off it assumes it's all fat or something 😂

  • yuisakas on 03/01/2021 - 19:21

    I just dont know why if only weight is accurate why dont just buy a scale from BigW or Kmart with the fancy app thing,only cost$10 and served me for good 6 years now

    • digitalaxon on 03/01/2021 - 20:37
      +1

      I think its good as a reference rather than actual accurate value. So let's say the scale says that your body fat is 20% (in actuality you might be 18%), if you start undertaking exercise but it continues to show 20%, you know that it's not changing, so you decide to also change your diet and notice that it starts dropping at a rate of 1% per week. I find seeing numbers change to be positive reinforcement as a measurable metric.

  • punkindrublic on 03/01/2021 - 20:40

    Bought this recently from Amazon, but after a few days the scale stopped recognising my phone completely. Tried troubleshooting (ie removing battery on scale, turning bluetooth off and on), but no luck getting it working again.

    Pretty disappointing honestly - the scale seemed great at first (especially for the price), but not being able to connect to a relatively new smartphone (Pixel 3a) is a massive flaw. Luckily Amazon are good with refunds, so sending it back and trying something else

  • Caped Baldy on 03/01/2021 - 21:10

    Hmm, I seem to be getting free shipping without prime.

  • dammit on 03/01/2021 - 22:42

    If I'm trying to lose a bit of weight (5-10kg) and don't really care about my muscle mass %'s etc, is there a reason to have a body fat scale? I currently just track standard weight using a basic digital scale. Trying to learn of the benefits of this type of scale and whether its just me wasting money :)

    • Commenter on 04/01/2021 - 10:03

      Bluetooth function is great. I would have bought the withings scale if it was on sale when I bought this one. It automatically tracks everyone’s weight rather than me manually selecting the person to assign the weight.

      I connected the app to Samsung > myfitnesspal > Garmin to track my food intake and exercise.

      Previously had to manually enter it.

    Bought this last time it was on sale and think it's great. We previously had a FitBit Aria which was stupidly expensive, shit and crippled by a stupidly flimsy plastic on the inside. The Renpho has worked perfectly for the duration, the charge lasts ages and the apps are bloody good too. No dramas with Bluetooth on both old and new Android and Apple smartphones. Can't recommend it enough.

  • garage sale on 04/01/2021 - 10:50

    does it have a function where my partner can i ask these scales “ does my bum look big in these” and it will give an honest answer based on height, weight and bmi ?

    • Hintswen on 04/01/2021 - 12:55

      The correct answer is no.
