Garmin index S2

I love that my stats go straight to my Garmin Connect App, that feature is very nice. My biggest concern with the scale is that I can get a million different numbers by getting on and off the scale or moving it slightly, up to 5lbs different. I have tried tapping it and letting it say 0 and then go back off and retapping prior to weighing but it still is all over the map. I have been using it since 03/20/25 (I know that's not much time) . I feelI need to use it longer to really see trends on the other metrics like fat and muscle. Overall, I'm not ready to give up on the scale. It has great potential. I just wish the accuracy was a little.more fine tuned.

GREAT DESIGN BUT NOT ACCURATE

The design and software of this scale are excellent. The weight is accurate, but the body fat measurement is totally off. I am skeptical of the other measurements. I hope that Garmin can fix this with a software update. Until then, I do not recommend buying.

doesnt recognize correct person

I have been pretty frustrated with the scale- i thought it knew who i was based on watch i was wearing. anyway my wife got pregnant and when her weight got close to mine it essentially thinks i am her or vice versa (even though she has subsequently lost weight and i have gone in and deleted her more recent higher values). I have tried to reset multiple times. I am very disappointed in the scale especially for the cost.

Not that great

This scale is subpar to its counterparts, including the weight watchers scale. It took several times to connect to Wi-Fi, with resetting it several times. In fact, it still doesn’t sync to my phone/app, so at this point, almost 1 month later, I’m done with trying and will use like a “normal scale.” At least I could use my FSA for it; however, I am close to regretting the purchase.

Accurate weight but not accurate fat percentage.

I’ve been using this scale for about a month and comparing it to a couple other scales. The weight is always accurate. However, I’m about 18% body fat. The other scales pick up on that. The Garmin scale kept claiming I was 30+% body fat. I finally had to go in and manually change the body fat to 18% and after a week of changing the body fat to measured body fat, it started calling it 18% as well. If it really is measuring body fat via impedance, why did I have to manually put in the amount? The other scales didn’t need that. It syncs very well with the Garmin Connect app. It even knows which user is using the scale. I’m not sure how it knows. If you have multiple users for your scale, it’s GREAT at knowing which person is using the scale. The design looks really sharp. I do have to double tap it to get it go come on. Most scales you can just step on or tap. I’ve had to be really firm a couple times to get it to come on. It sounds sometimes on a tile floor like I’m kicking it. Overall it’s a good scale. If all I wanted was accurate weight, this scale is excellent. If you want things like hydration and body fat %, you’ll have to be patient and train it.

Great Time Saver + Bonus Info

Installed batteries and setup via the phone app, Scale got right on my Wi-Fi and saves me, not just a few minutes but the worry about if I logged my info or not. The extra info is a bonus that was not part of my previous tracking. Display is clear, bright and easy to read

I like how this provides more insight other than just weight itself. It also inputs data right into the Garmin app, which helps me keep track of fitness goals and levels. But one does need to be realistic and know that this will not give a true score of muscle and fat mass. That's where going and getting either a Dexa or Inbody scan will be most beneficial. Overall I love this scale and the information it provides.

Love the Sync with Garmin Connect

I received the Garmin S2 Smart Scale as a Christmas Present. It was easy to set up and integrate with Garmin Connect. It is accurate and provides essential data to gauge improvement in fitness. It is easy to access current data from the scale on Garmin Connect. Historical data is also readily available. One minor issue is that the scale does not always register all the data on the first weigh-in, That might be a function of my feet being too dry. But that is my only complaint.

Feet away to sucess

With a tap, the scale readies itself and then you see two footprints, hitch indicates it ready. Stepping onto the glass where the footprint are, sets you up for a complete review of more than weight. It calculates you BMI, muscle mass and several other calculated values that can be tracked using many Garmin or Garmin compatible applications, updating your application or Smartwatch with the latest data via Bluetooth or WiFi application in use. I highly recommend it and have incorporated it in my overall health management tools. It’s the best scale I have used and was easy to setup and integrate.

Syncing Issues!

This scale has some issues syncing with the Garmin App. Also, I am not sure it is measuring my weight correctly when compared to another scale that I able to calibrate. Thus, I am not sure the other metrics like BMI and Body Fat Percentage is accurate.
