Great sensor for doors and windows. I’ve grabbed two of these so far and work perfectly for what they are intended. The speed to my phone for notifications is great. Simple and easy to install and sticks well. Great value for money.

The Aqara door and window contact sensors are a reliable and affordable solution for home security.I found them easy to install and configure and they worked straight of the bat with HomeKit. I have attached them to my front door as a security measure and it is great to receive instant notifications when the door is opened. At night time my Aqara camera - which serves as the hub - sounds an alarm upon opening the door. This has proven very useful on a few occasions. :-)For me the compact design and long battery life make them a practical choice.However, there seems to be a range limitation which might be a drawback in larger homes or buildings. This could be solved by adding an additional hub I suppose.Overall, the Aqara contact sensors offer great value for money and peace of mind. Will definitely purchase more!

Could be location, could be interference but when it’s working it’s quick and effective. Mine just seems to drop off every now and then, repairing takes ages and is really tricky. If you’re happy with tech you can live with it, but for a non-tech it would be a pain.Size, function and quality all seem top notch. Mine is paired with a Samsung SmartThings hub, no Aquara hub needed.

On a mission to replace all of my Z Wave sensors and controllers in my home assistant installation.On my doors I previously had the sensitive Z wave strips which were extremely slim line and worked very robustly and very consistently. Was a bit worried that these items were going to be a bit too chunky and large when sitting on the exterior of the door, but actually they sit there quite nicely and after a day or two you don't really notice them.Respond extremely quickly actually much quicker than the sensitive Z wave strips.I now have quite a few Aqua components in my home assistant instal and they all work extremely well never had any dramas.Recommended A+

Awesome product, used it to make smart home security system to secure doors and Windows. The zigbee connectivity is perfect. Easy to install and looks elegant.

Aqara promised that an upgrade for the firmware on this sensor would unlock its additional features. This was way back when the sensor first released, and they still advertise that to this day.They said an Aqara M3 hub would be needed in order to get the updated firmware, and access the additional settings and features, leading users to buy the M3 Hub I imagine.The M3 Hub started showing up in December of 2023, and still here we are over a year and a half later without a firmware update for the sensor. Aqara ignores any requests for details on why there's no update.Without the update, the sensor has no configuration options. It can be seen within the Aqara app, and within your preferred Smart Home Ecosystem. This means there's no tamper protection as advertised, and the button on the sensor cannot be configured, so has no function whatsoever.Battery life is good by the looks of it. I've had it over a year and haven't had to replace the battery at all.I can't really recommend these to most people sadly. I feel like Aqara has miss lead consumers with this promise to add the additional functions, but hasn't followed through.
