What owners single out
The small display weakness noted by buyers directly mirrors the video reviewers' concern about limited on-watch data visibility.
In their words
“Wonderful watch, everything I need to keep up with my active day to day exercise and my health. Easy to set up, works well and the Health Mate app is simple to navigate. The sleep tracking and the daily step tracker are my favorite features. It lets me know how many steps I need to hit my goal and gives me a sleep score every night. Battery life is super amazing, it stays charged for about 2 weeks”

“I'm really loving my withings scan watch 2 . The 1st thing that appealed to me was the sleek design, which looks like an elegant watch not a wrist worn computer. The functions work really well so it's easy to keep a check on your BPM and oxygen saturation level. It can even perform an ECG. All your data is available on the app. My only negative would be the small display of data on the watch face.”
