"Withings ScanWatch 2: The Ultimate Health-Tracking Watch"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Verge
Withings has announced the ScanWatch 2, its latest hybrid smartwatch, featuring a new temperature tracking module that uses four sensors to deliver health insights. The temperature tracking is intended to monitor fluctuations throughout the day and build a baseline for optimizing workouts and detecting illness. While it doesn't provide direct notifications of potential sickness, abnormal temperature fluctuations can be interpreted as a sign of illness. Withings opted for this approach to avoid the lengthy FDA clearance process. The ScanWatch 2 is available for pre-order, with an estimated 30-day battery life, and is expected to arrive in selected retailers in October.
