The MorphoScan Nova is Renpho's answer to gym-style body composition analyzers. It uses 8 electrodes and dual-frequency bioelectrical impedance, with a retractable handle so the current runs through your arms as well as your legs. That allows segmental analysis: Renpho says it maps the fat-to-muscle ratio across 5 body parts, each arm, each leg and the torso. The app reports more than 50 metrics, including subcutaneous and visceral fat, skeletal muscle, BMR and body water, and the 4.3-inch color screen shows 20 of them on the scale. Renpho says full app access needs no subscription. It has 8 user slots on the scale and unlimited profiles in the app, a USB-C rechargeable battery and sync to Apple Health and Fitbit. Connectivity is Bluetooth only, so your phone needs to be nearby. It was on sale for $199.99, down from $219.99, when we checked, with an 18-month warranty on purchases from Renpho's site.
