ScanWatch Nova Brilliant

Withings ScanWatch Nova Brilliant is a watch from 2025, sitting in the premium band at an indicative $599.

It reads 19 of the 33 signals this comparison tracks. Full coverage of sleep and activity. Nothing at all from body composition. Rarer readings it does take: sleep apnea screening, AFib detection, ECG recording and sleep efficiency.

By sensor class: 1 at clinical grade, 7 at high accuracy and 4 at consumer grade. That grade is my classification of the hardware, not a lab test. Those readings come from an optical heart rate sensor, ECG electrodes, an optical blood oxygen sensor, a skin temperature sensor, a GPS receiver and an accelerometer. It records an ECG and screens for atrial fibrillation. Those are screening features, not a diagnosis. Blood oxygen is measured through the night, not continuously through the day.

Its 30 days per charge are the 5th longest of the 76 devices of its kind here that publish a figure. It has an OLED screen. Rated 5ATM / 50m, fine for swimming. It weighs 42 g. Case size 39mm. No subscription is required.

Smaller 39mm steel version of the ScanWatch Nova. Same sensors and same measured signals, differs in case, weight and water rating.
