In general I like aqaras IOT devices. I have a bunch of their motion sensors, door sensors, vibration sensors, temp sensors, and I would rate them at least 8 or 9/10. However, the false advertising is strong with this one. 1. This is clearly advertised as an energy monitor. I dont know if this function was just not implemented. The aqara app lists the voltage, amperage, and wattage as -. Its been 2 hr since Ive set the outlet up, it has not given me any real reading yet. 2. The energy monitor also ONLY exists in the aqara app. No where in homekit can this reading even exist. 3. The lag. When I said I liked aqaras other products, its because of the low latency. I open a door, the door sensor updates. I move around, my motion detector updates. This plug, which is connected to the same hub on the same network, lags by at least 5 minutes.

Really good plug but expensive

It CUTS DOWN power twice when doing firmware updates! I have my computers and stereo system on this plug, such unexpected shut of power could cause data loss and damage the speakers. It’s not super hard to install. But it does require a hub device to work and cannot work alone because it doesn’t have wifi chip. Also, you cannot pair it in the Home app but instead you have to use the Aqara app. I used to buy smart home products from Aqara’s parent brand Xiaomi, which comes in cheaper price, and have no such stupid issue of power cycle, and has integrated Wi-Fi chip so it doesn’t need such a Hub to work. I came to Aqara this time for the HomeKit functions and thought it should be as reliable as other Xiaomi main brand products. Guess I’m just wrong.

Works great. Good data presentation of energy use.

Great product to buy. Will buy it again.

I have this setup with a space heater and the Aqara remote so that I can turn the heater on/off from the bathtub and so far it has worked every time with no problem.

Love this smart plug! With Aqara’s updated M1S or M2 hub, this plug is extremely reliable. I used to do all of my home automation in HomeKit, but the Aqara automation is much faster, so when I’m controlling an Aqara device with another Aqara device I now create the automation routine in the Aqara app.

Easy to connect and works great

Die stop working after one months....set automated not work ....i brought two smart plug and both stop working after 30 days. Stuck can’t returns

I am a victim of the Insteon shutdown and wanted to replace my smart home devices with something that was not Wi-Fi and could form a separate mesh network like Insteon did. After a bit of research I decided to give Aqara a try. Bought a couple of these smart plugs along with an M2 hub. Everything works great. I’ve added more Aqara products and am very happy with the system. Works flawlessly with Home Assistant as well.
