ACCUNIQ BC720 vs InBody 170
ACCUNIQ BC720 and InBody 170: compare documented specifications, features and limitations. Check the reports and explanation offered by the provider. More features alone do not establish better accuracy.
ACCUNIQ BC720: when to consider it
ACCUNIQ BC720 uses multi-frequency BIA with eight contact electrodes. Results include estimated whole-body and regional fat and muscle for the arms, legs and trunk. BC720 also reports extracellular water and phase angle.
InBody 170: when to consider it
The older InBody170 provides a basic overview for weight loss and muscle-building goals. It can also help you follow existing measurements: a consultation can examine changes in fat, muscle and their distribution.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
