Our Take
The Garmin Index S2 is a Wi-Fi-connected smart scale aimed at fitness enthusiasts already invested in the Garmin ecosystem. It measures weight alongside body composition metrics and syncs data directly to Garmin Connect. It sits at the premium end of the smart scale market, priced noticeably higher than rivals from Withings or Fitbit.
Key Features
Measures weight, BMI, body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, bone mass, and body water
Wi-Fi sync pushes data automatically to the Garmin Connect app without requiring your phone nearby
Supports up to 16 individual user profiles, making it practical for households with multiple people
Displays readings directly on the scale's backlit LCD screen, so you don't need your phone to hand
Compatible with third-party apps including MyFitnessPal and Apple Health via Garmin Connect
Available in black or white, with a tempered glass platform
Our Verdict
A logical, well-executed choice for anyone already tracking fitness through Garmin Connect — the integration is genuinely smooth. If you're outside the Garmin ecosystem, though, the premium price is hard to justify when Withings offers comparable features with a cleaner app experience at a similar or lower cost.
