This New Watch is Not What it Looks Like... 

I am someone who loves traditional automatic and hand winding watches. If I needed a new smart watch I would choose this. It’s simplistic and still feels like a watch instead of a phone in the wrist

I had a gen 1 or 2 way back in 2017 and loved it. I'm glad to know they are continuing to update and not compromise on the subtle design.

I've had this watch now, for 6 months (Switzerland). I can tell you it's REALLY good. Battery life is tops (3 weeks - no problem). The only thing that often doesn't work immediately is the oxymeter, but then I am tattooed where the watch is worn, so it may have to do with that. You have to place your other hand halfway over the watch face to have it measure correctly. But once you get the hang of it, it measures right away. Great classic design, that doesn't make you look like a tech nerd when on a formal evening out.

My Withings Activité Steel is about 5 years now and it still works perfectly. The battery lasts about 6 months and I get compliments all the time about how good it looks.

Finally a watch that looks good in business casual settings. I definitely want one

That is a really clean looking smart watch and I like that it just blends in with the rest of your accessories. It doesn't overly stand out and scream tech but it still will turn a head or two.

I have an older version, and it's great! The sensors are not perfect, but I like the fact that is a hybrid smart/traditional watch. No extra apps or whatever, just a normal watch face and some activity tracking.

Had it for a few months, as well as most of the Withings range and bar the short lived camera, never have an issue with them. I've moved from a Garmin Fenix 3hr sapphire to the Scanwatch for a daily wear.

I used one of the first models. I've always loved their core concept. It's a classic timeless watch also contains smart capabilities. Hybrid watch is my favorite smartwatch.

Got the 38mm for Christmas and I have charged it 5 times since then. I wear it everywhere except the shower (though I am under the impression that I could wear it there as well). I love it. I also utilize the Body+ scale and the BPM Connect. I find the app easy to use and having all of my health metrics available as an exportable file to give to my doctor is super helpful.

Got the Steel HR for Xmas last year. Exactly what I was looking for in a smart watch. Looks good, Un-intrusive and long battery life.

Just got a scanwatch myself, I love Withings' minimalistic style!

I got a small watch collection and my favorite one is the self automatic hand winding and keep it on a rotating watch stand so it’s always powered!

Beautiful watch. You can wear it as though it were a traditional, mechanical watch, while keeping track of all your health parameters and workouts. Worn with one of Withings interchangeable leather straps, it looks and feels like a gorgeous timepiece with all the added bonuses of an advanced and medically approved health tracker. Impressive device.

I’ve had the Steel HR Sport for about two years and it’s great! I love the hybrid style and the functionality of it all and the blacked out details. The battery obviously will run down faster if you’re using it to record your runs, workouts, etc daily, but it still lasts a while!! Definitely recommend.

Have the Steel HR now and love the simplicity and battery life it offers and this would be a nice upgrade , but also holding out a bit of hope for a better Android smartwatch announcing this year. (ie pixel watch)

This video is really well made - the way you hold the attention is clearly extremely honed. Incredible work ^^

Since I like new tech I jumped into smartwatches pretty early on, but after a while I kinda got over them. And one of the reasons was battery life. Usually OK when new but after about a year it tends to get pretty bad, unless you turn off things to conserve power and what's the point of having all these options if you have to worry about conserving power. Plus honestly I just like the way traditional watches look better. So I've mostly gone back to wearing traditional watches, particularly mechanicl watches, I find to be appealing in a retro tech way. I have a Galaxy Watch 4 but it's essentially a fitness tracker (hey i got a really good deal on it thank Samsung). This is kinda intriguing because it has the look of something more traditional but does quite a bit of tracking but the best part as mentioned is that its battery life makes actually useable without battery anxiety, like most smart watches.

It’s smooth I like it. I agree with you it’s classy, the fact I can charge once a month that 100% a must have.

Got this in September and I absolutely love mine. Good Battery life, I average prob. around 23-25 Days. Looks good and has a lot of good features

Love my gadgets, love my withings watch the most. I have the limited edition gold steel hr and its purdy. Turns heads way more than any smart watch.

Excellent design as always from the Withings team, clean and to the point. Crazy to think that for a time Nokia had this brand and products under their wing and decided to sell it to the founder. Retrospectively, for the better.

Wow, thank you for the smart watch recommendation.

I've been very interested in this watch. Just found your channel, and your presentation was spot on. Respect

I own the 42mm version and ordered as soon as it became available in the US few months back. I wish the scanwatch horizon was available. As far as the tech goes, the SPO2 monitor and ECG does not work as smoothly. Otherwise I love it. Battery does last quite a bit.

I also think it makes for a good smart watch having the best of both worlds, the classic analogue look and the smart digital features all in one. I particularly like the idea of the long lasting battery and not having to charge it all the time as mentioned and also the actual analogue watch supersedes the small screen which shows the secondary digital or smart functions. Didn't hear any mention about notifications or call making like other smart watches but I guess that's the trade off right there.

So glad that you came back to the table...The original unbox therapy.....I think you should more videos in the table...

I bought the previous model of the Scanwatch, the Steel HR back in 2018. Started running in 2019. I use this watch for all my runs, and in everyday life, i'm flexing HARD this hybrid SmartWatch, the classic look combined with the advanced features amazes everyone !!!

I like the smaller one with white face, brushed case, and stitched band!

Finally the recognition that these watches deserve! Been using them since 2017...wear my Steel HR 24/7 love their stuff

I have the prior version and I love it. The new black face and polished exterior looks amazing!

I got one of these when they first came out back in 2020, I absolutely love it

it's amazing how good adverts are these days

Have the 38mm one. I love it. The design is great and of course the battery. When I wake up one day to see 10% battery remaining i just think: "Well...i'll charge it in 3 days" because in 3 days it will still have 5% battery in it. One really needs to experience it to believe and understand. This also creates a problem tho... I've been wanting a more functional smartwatch for a while. Aka with contactless payments, changeable watch faces etc. And every time I see the battery life of suitable watches i go: "What do you mean the battery only lasts a week....?" So yeah. Try at your own risk.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks for the video!!

I think hybrid smartwatch is the way to go! The benefits of all the health trackers, the option to get smartphone notifications, but creates some frictions between being entirely connected to digital. I enjoy looking at what time it is without having to look at a screen and get distracted into a rabbit hole. I got the Garmin vivomove and super happy I got rid of my Galaxy "smarter watch".

Looks very nice! One must wonder though: why are we putting so much focus on atrial fibrillation lately? ...

Weird how we're at a day where 30 days of battery life for a watch is a lot

I will definitely try it as soon as possible! A friend recommended it to for sharing!

Didn't know how much I miss this set-up of Unbox Therapy until I watched this video. I also like the mancave set-up but this set-up where its just clean and product focused is much better in my opinion.

We want to see more camera vids !

The entire withings ecosystem is great and very underheated. Love their products.

Good lord, I've been waiting for this since smartwatches came along. Finally! I only hope some sport version of this same simple concept comes along too.

Oh this black one looks incredible, I wish they were available in Pakistan would've definitely given it a shot! Also like their own different take on the way we know smart watches, I love it!

I love hybrid smartwatches. They fix the problem with smartwatches with its ‘one day battery’ which tbh sucks. It should at the very least last for a week.

*_Your journey to better health starts now_* My wallet: *_I'm sick_*

I own this earlier generation watch for my bday.. n i can say.. I am so happy with it. It look so nice and the battery is long lasting. Highly recommended... The only thing i have problem is that the Silicon strap kinda gave me rashes after days of wearing. So I plan to switch it with canvas strap.

I love Withings watches. Also "Timeless Design" that was smooth.

less of a review and a bit more home shopping network vibe on this one to be honest Lew. I was expecting you to give us a: Could be yours for 12 instalments of $39.95 lol

90% of people are not using any features on a smart watch, let’s be honest.

A great review!! Thank you so much. I am a classic watch wearer and I think this is it for my everyday office wear. It is a gorgeous watch!

I've been looking at these for a while! So cool!

after watching many tech unboxing on Unbox Therapy, I would say this would be the most affordable thing which was unboxed in recent months LOL

For hybrid smartwatch, I use Fossil Hybrid HR .. classical mechanical watch, with E-ink background... I charge it once a month, reads messages and notifications, has stopwatch and some basic fitness features. You can change wallpapers, which stay always on and need no energy. Great watch overall. I find it much better than this watch.

I use whiting watch for such a long time. I start whit pop, move to steel and now I have hr model and its a great way to track all your activity and has classic style. Every watch lives on mi wrist minimum of 3 years. Only I distroid them by my havy use, first watch died after I jump to the what from 7 m toll tower, and the survive but has some what under glass, the steis whit what for 1 year and it's great work.

I've had it since it came out in Canada and I love it! I chose the 42mm black model. I charge mine roughly every three weeks, and I do record workouts five times a week. The breathing disturbances feature is what will use the battery the most as the spo2 sensor will work overnight, I keep that to "automatic". Unfortunately the Canada model doesn't have ECG yet.

this is a must have wearable

How good is that BPM? I heard smartwatch BPMs are trash and just guesstimate your BP.

I've had mine since last March ordered it from UK. It's amazing.

Only smart watch been interested in , looking good with a shirt going out

I'm so immersed in the Samsung ecosystem that to change away from it now would be sacrilegious!

This is how should a smart WATCH be.

First impression? Oooh~ luxurious~

These look amazing especially the blue and white band how nice and I love the mix of traditional and smart these are so dope

I'm not a vegan of any type but does calf leather srsly mean leather from a calf? Like a baby cow? That's a little weird, why is another question. Is it better?

Meanwhile here I am charging my Apple Watch Series 6 every night. Although better battery performance would be nice, charging it so often doesn’t bother me that much.

Thanks for the review UT. Just brought the watch yesterday and it's dead ass clean 😤...

It's crazy with a 30-day battery life. And looks so classy. I would say it's fabulous with design as well. I'm definitely excited to check it in poland Store.

I used the watch for a few weeks, and while it looks good I can‘t recommend it. The heart rate is almost always wrong, when my BPM goes all the way up to 150+ the watch just tracks half of my actual heartrate.

I've had a Withings ScanWatch for eighteen months. Best watch I've ever had.

As traditional watch enthusiast and collector as well as someone who has never owned a smart watch , this might be the first one I get . I love the look , the design is gorgeous .

Appreciate your reviews! Seriously intrigued.

Amazing ❤

If it's 39% after 3 days of wearing, how's it going to make it another 27 days?

Looks like this was made for me,,, I always get stuck to which one should wear... The classic watch or a smartwatch at the end I gave up on smartwatches but this!!! It a hybrid

I have been using withings pulse hr since last 8 months. The biggest factor which differentiates withings is accuracy and minimal design. Of course, the software is fabulous. There are some quality concerns on low end devices of theirs though. I had 2 pulse hr and both conked.

Was looking into purchasing an Apple watch but definitely now going to get this watch. Thanks for the review, perfect timing 👍👍

Another example of how amazing technology is 🔥

I really love what Withings do - I have both the ScanWatch 38mm AND Horizon versions; plus a scale :-D Having gifted few Steel HRs to people close to me, I'm definitely a fan

Classic form watch + mi band 2 = amazing product.

Love from India ❤️❤️

I don't know if I would call this a smartwatch. More of a smart-fitness tracker designed as a normal watch. You can't launch apps on it. Can't change your song or reply to notifications. It's a lot of health features and lets you see mobile notifications. It's a health product with a normal watch face. I would more consider this a fitness tracker than a smartwatch.

I really like the retro look, especially the white face and black strap

I really like this watch it looks very minimal.. I Will definitely be getting one and will be reviewing that on my channel

*Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.*

I have a xiaomi analog "smart" watch. All it does is track steps (with an analog dial which is very nice) and vibrate with notifications, but is has a one year battery life, which is amazing compared to regular smartwatches. Wish it would have done more tracking, but at just 40 usd it's a steal

A very nice watch, im looking forward to when you can cram NFC and E-sim into this. Oh, and music controller.

Lew rocking S22 Ultra, check it, S pen on top while all notes had it on the lower side

Took FOREVER to come to the U.S. Glad I finally got mine. Upgrade from the Steel HR was worth it.

Brings memories of watches I used to wear 20-30 years ago. It’s cool looking.

I’ve been using this for a year…it’s fab and nd combined with the scale from withing’s makes it perfect for a healthy lifestyle!

I have mine for a year now and i love this watch very high qulity, the sensors are actually kinda accurate

This is the first hybrid watch I like more than Kronaby watches! It is nice, elegant, and for sure a smartwatch!

i have had this watch now for 1.5 year now, and i absolutely love it.

The design and battery backup is really lit.😮

I intend to get it. Thank you for doing a review of it.

I am using Move ECG and I think it's the best, about 6 months battery life

👍I bought this watch and made a detailed review if anyone is seriously interested in buying this watch. Just be careful where you buy it from because in some countries, certain features are disabled due to health regulations. I bought the UK version, which is fully unlocked. The Canadian version is crippled. Loving it so far though!

That's why I like my Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS, great battery life, because its having a dual screen!

These hybrid watches are really good for those who want that classic look and functionality without the worry of charging and distractions. I got my wife a Fossil Hybrid watch for Christmas as I know she is not that into too much fancy tech, and she absolutely loves it.
