I am wondering if somebody professional can explain; there are thousands of body fat scales scales wich costs from as low as $20 to as high as many hundreds. All of them measure resistance of a human body to a weak alternative current. The result is a single number : electrical resistance. That's it.
The rest it adjustment of this number based on weight ( another single number) and other parameters provided manually by user: height, age, gender, how athletic or non athletic a person is and possibly many other.
The art/science is how to use all these additional data to derive body fat percentage from the measured resistance to get it close to gold standards of body fat measurments like hydrostatic weighting and DECA.
Resistance measurments hardware costs not dollars but cents.
So how come that this s2 scale costs over $150 and provides incorrect results when there are scales like Arboleaf which costs few times less and provides consistant results much closer to hydro/DExa numbers?
Garmin is a serious company, there are thousands of complaints over many months and they can't fix their software and/or introduce additional parameters for adjustment like girth size, thigh size biceps size, eye color, education level etc, etc
If I missed something please pont me out
