Garmin Index S2 Smart Scale

Love that it syncs to my phone and tracks my progress!!!

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.

Great scale which is easy to set up and use, except for very poor bio metric readings. This is a replacement scale for me so I have reference to readings from my predecessor scale. Although weight is correct, the other readings are less so, particularly body fat percentage. This is not a vanity issue. Body fat percentage is about 10 points higher than the previous scale which I had independently determined to have been fairly accurate. Because of this, other health measurement results in Garmin Connect are skewed incorrectly. This is very disappointing and adversely affects the reason for having such a sale..

This scale makes tracking weight so much easier. It sends the data right to Garmin connect. It also gives insight to other metrics.

Setup was easy and it is consistently accurate. Syncs up great with the app and easy to set up other users. I use it mainly for the weight readings as I’m sure how accurate the other functions work. The scale itself is well built and seems solid.

There is a lot of information you can gain from this scale and it is very useful in tracking overall health.

Bought this to go with my Fenix 7 Pro. Not a bad scale. Just wish it would tell you the Visceral Fat/Subcutaneous Fan percentage like another scale I have does.

This scale is great if you love stats but hate logging them. I use the connect app a lot, and it's nice to be able to step on the scale and go about my day without logging into an app and recording each number. I recently had a Dexa scan done and this scale is about 3-4% under the fat amount. It's consistent, but I'm pretty sure it's been off by the same amount since I got it. I have a much older scale from a different company and it shows exactly the same number as the Dexa scan and the Garmin scale has been 3-4% under that one every time I compare fat %. If you want to track change over time, it seems good for that. And compared to my watch telling me I'm less fit than I hoped, having my scale be more forgiving may not be the worst thing.

Every morning I get on the scale and weight myself, then get off, after the screen turns off I have to tap the scale to get it to turn back on and usually the hour glass shows up. Sometimes the hour glass screen syncs the scale with my phone, but usually I have to wait, weigh my self again, and get back to the hour glass screen a second time before it will actually send data to the app. Occasionally it gets stuck in a screen that shows the scale and app connected, but the app shows no activity, takes 15minutes for that screed to go away so most of the time I have to take the batteries out to force it to stop. Gets stuck in that screen at least once a day. So minus one star for the app never syncing on the first try, and minus a second for it constantly freezing. Minus a third star cause sometime I can't get it to turn on at all.

It is expensive, but it seems sturdy, accurate, and effective. I love how it syncs with the Garmin app. It frankly gives me more information than I understand. At some point I will read the instructions!

I’m very happy with the scale and the features, but with multiple users that are about the same weight and the “tap” sensing that doesn’t provide any sensory feedback it is sometimes hard to select the right person. Maybe there should be some type of confirmation before logging it to Connect. The link to connect is sometimes wonky and unreliable. Like I said, good high quality Garmin product but not great in terms of usability.

I can't compare the more detailed measurements it gives to anything else yet but I love the ease of syncing to my Garmin app and being able to quickly track my progress. Sleek look and easy interface. Great product for anyone using Garmin devices. Definitely reccommend for any dedicated fitness fiend of all levels as well as someone just wanting a basic scale. No complaints so far and looking forward to adding more Garmin products to my toolbox.

At first I had a love hate relationship with this scale because it measured my weight 5 lbs heavier than my previous scale! But, once I learned it needs to be layed flat for storing it’s been better. I love that it automatically syncs my weight with my watch in the connect app and that it records so much more than just my weight!

I rather enjoy seeing the loss or gain from week to week.

I’m a big fan of Garmin, and love my Fenix 7x, but the Index S2 does not uphold the quality that one would expect from the company. I bought the scale new. Since the initial set up, the wifi connectivity has not worked at all. Because of this, all of the “smart” features advertised are unavailable. I have gone through the Garmin forums and other internet resources, trying many of the recommendations out there, and nothing has resolved the issue. In this research, I have come to discover that many other individuals are experiencing the same thing. My biggest disappointment is that this seems to be a somewhat widespread, longstanding issue, but Garmin has seemingly done nothing to address it.

Purchased this as a replacement for a failed smart scale from another manufacturer. Like this one is in the Garmin ecosystem as is my watch but the last scale also integrated too. Seems accurate and allows for multiple people to track their weight. The only gripe I have is that you have to kind of forcibly tap it before you step on in order to turn it on. Would be great if would just activate when you step on it.

I am renewing my approach to health and weight loss. This scale provides several points that I want/need to monitor in my wellness journey that I could not monitor with a standard scale.

Scale works well and everything worked within a couple of minutes for me and my girlfriend. We got all out weight and other properties, but the scale gave no info about that they ment and what you should strive for...it also dosnt link to good sources in the app. I expected a bit more from this.

Couple months of use now. Battery life is much better and I think solar will be a nice addition. Just a very nice outdoor watch!

I love having my workout data and health data from this scale all in one place !!
