Smart scales are taking the world by storm, and understandably so. These clever digital devices not only measure your weight and BMI, but also provide you with complex insights into your body composition. For example, they can tell how your body fat percentage, muscle mass and body water content change over time, giving you a detailed picture of your overall fitness progress. The best part? They do not have to cost the earth. In fact, we have just found a great deal on one of the most accurate smart scales we have tested.

She holds a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition from the Warsaw University of Life Sciences, a Master’s degree in Nutrition, Physical Activity & Public Health from the University of Bristol, as well as various health coaching certificates. Anna has personally tried and tested dozens of body composition trackers, including the Renpho MorphoScan Nova, and is a major contributor to our guide to the best smart scales.
Unlike most smart scales that use a stand-on platform only, the Renpho MorphoScan Nova is a foot-to-hand model — it uses both a stand-on platform and a handle. This means that when it measures your body composition, it collects the data from both your upper and lower bodies, rather than your lower body alone. As a result, the Renpho MorhoScan Nova can provide more accurate readings than the vast majority of stand-on smart scales available on the market.
That's not all — the Renpho MorphoScan Nova is not only more accurate, but also more detailed and functional. That's because it can provide you with a segmental body analysis. In simpler terms, it can show you the differences in your body fat percentage and muscle mass between your trunk, legs and arms. To top it off, this smart scale offers printable reports that you can then share with your doctor or personal trainer.
All in all, the Renpho MorphoScan Nova is a highly advanced tool in your fitness arsenal and one that can truly make a difference to your fitness routine. The best part? It is now the cheapest it has ever been.

Reviews consensus: There is plenty to like about the Renpho MorphoScan Nova: it is portable, height-inclusive and easy to use, but most importantly, it delivers a highly accurate and exceptionally detailed body composition analysis without relying on overly complex terminology or pricey app subscriptions. On the other hand, this smart scale does not have good app connectivity or multiple weighing modes, and it is pretty expensive, too.
