The Withings ScanWatch 2 just got smarter and comes in a new color

We took the Withing’s ScanWatch 2 for a spin last year and found that it was a great wearable if you wanted something that offered a more traditional look. A year later, Withing’s is introducing something new, delivering the same watch, but it comes in a new color and delivers more features thanks to a major software update called HealthSense 4.

The brand made its announcement during IFA 2025, sharing that its new watch would be available today directly from the Withings website for $370. We imagine that over time, we’ll see this watch pop up on Best Buy and Amazon as well. Withings states ‘the update introduces advanced algorithms that monitor 35 health parameters with unmatched precision and deliver timely alerts to support energy levels and reduce fatigue.’

To expand on the above, the ScanWatch 2 will be able to better monitor sleep, and for Withings+ members, you’ll be able to gain access to a new Vitality Indicator, which will provide ‘personalized notifications to help users target and improve the factors that impact their well-being most.’ The watch will also utilize AI in order to provide indicators before a health event occurs.

We’ve seen this before with other watches, but it’s exciting that Withings will now offer these features on its smartwatches too. The new update for the app makes all the important data you need and want to know about easier to read. The only downside about all of this is that you’ll need a paid Withings+ account to access all the best features, which costs $10/month or $99.50/year.

As you can imagine, this is quite a large investment considering that you’re also going to be paying for the hardware as well. Withings isn’t the only brand that does this, but if you’re looking to invest in a new smartwatch, there are plenty of other options to go with that won’t charge you a monthly service fee. The good news is that the software update won’t be exclusive to the ScanWatch 2.

If you own the ScanWatch Nova and ScanWatch Nova Brilliant, you’ll also be able to download the update to gain new features. If this is something that interests you, we recommend updating your existing Withings watch, or buying the new ScanWatch 2. The new color looks absolutely fantastic.
