Product is performing as advertised. I notice a lot of reviews about network connectivity issues, I did not experience any related to the product itself. However I run into an issue on my home router, I have it set with WPA2-PSK (which the scale does support) however when I used a keygen utility it produced a 64 character key. WPA2 standards allow up to a 63 character key. So when I was entering the key it kept preventing me from clicking "OK" for the network. I removed one character and the button become available. I simply shortened the key to 63 chars on my ASUS RT68P router. Once this was done it connected immediately and setup was a breeze, 5 mins maybe? It synced with my phone (Galaxy S5) right away as well via Bluetooth for initial setup. I should add that I did notice that the signal strength was not "excellent" on the app when setting up for the wireless, which I found odd as I had a wired Netgear AP within 10 ft of it, they could improve this aspect. Maybe a better set of batteries too? They come with some cheapo batteries included. Maybe try something meant to perform better in electronics like a lithium battery to see if it gives a better antennae performance? In the end it wasn't a big deal for my use but some users complained about range, which is usually poor placement or a poor router.
My only other complaint was that LCD, I was hoping for something a little more detailed for $130 but I think it's mean to be retro looking like the rest of their device displays.
Overall so far I'm pleased and it seems accurate from my use so far on a hard surface with barefeet (recommended but not required per Fitbit)

Much easier to set up than aria 1
I had the aria original and it was a PITA (pain in the ass) to set up. Every time the batteries ran out you had to restart it again. So with all the reviews I was a bit worried getting this. But I did- and the 2 is SO much better at setting up. It took 5 seconds and much cleaner without having to leave the Fitbit app at all.My one tip is this won’t work if you WiFi password has any special characters in it. At least the original one wouldn’t work with that so if you are having trouble try changing your WiFi password or setting up a second network for the scale to attach.Looks wise it’s much the same as the original, but it shows cute icons instead of your name. When I weighted myself on both scales I weighed 1lb lighter on the new scale but 1% body fat more. Interesting :) I’m not worried about accuracy as long g as the consistency is on point so doesn’t matter much to me!
