Withings ScanWatch 2 is for someone who wants a traditional looking watch that still records medical-grade heart data. You rest a finger on the metal bezel and the watch records a single-lead ECG in 30 seconds; Withings says its ECG App is cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration under 510(k) K240795. It also tracks overnight HRV, a Breathing Quality Index, blood oxygen levels and 24/7 temperature with variation notifications, and a Withings+ trial adds cardiologist review of an ECG within 24 hours. Battery is the headline at up to 35 days, with a full charge in 2 hours. The watch works with iOS and Android, is 5 ATM water resistant and shows incoming calls and app notifications. Because it is a hybrid with a small display, the US page lists no message replies, third party apps or wallet payments, so it does not cover the payments part of this list. At $369.95 for either the 38mm or 42mm case, it is the best fit for health first buyers.
